18、 married. That sounds like a great thing. But as a recent study has shown, too many choices can make us 2 , unhappyeven paralyzed with indecision.

19、 skills and interests, but often find themselves 4 when it comes to choosing an ultimate career goal. In a study, Schwartz observed decision-making among college students during their 5 year. Based on answers to questions regarding their job-hunting 6 and career decisions, he divided the students in
20、to two groups: “maximizers“ who consider every possible option, and “satisficers“ who look until they find an option that is good enough. You might expect that the students who had undertaken the most 7 search would be the most satisfied with their final decision. But it turns out that“s not true. S
21、chwartz found that while maximizers 8 better paying jobs than satisficers on average, they weren“t as happy with their decision. The reason why these people feel 9 is that a world of possibilities may also be a world of missed opportunities. When you look at every possible option, you tend to focus
22、more on what was given up than what was gained. After surveying every option, a person is more acutely aware of the opportunities they had to 10 to pursue just one career. （分数：40.00）填空项 1:_大学英语六级-146 (1)答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、Listening Comprehens(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Section A(总题数：4，分数：30.00)（分数：10.
