3.When asked what they want out of life,most people anywhere in the world will probably answer:"to be happy."Ed Deiner,an American psychology professor,has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy,comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.
     A number of people would say that there is no need to answer this question  But Professor Deiner  as one anyway."If you're a cheerful,happy person,your marriage is more likely to last,and you're more likely to make money and be successful at your job.On average,happy people have stronger immune(免疫的) systems,and there is some evidence that they live longer.
     So who are the happiest people in the world?It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness,the sense of joy we get when we do something we like.  But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave.According to Professor Deiner,the Western world go after individual happiness while Asia prefers each other's satisfaction,
"In the West,the individualistic culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East.  People ask themselves if they are doing what is fun or interesting.  They become unhappy when they can't do any of these things.  If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy,they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives.  If not much has gone wrong,then they are satisfied."
  People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture,Professor Deiner found."The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride,and shame.  Hispanic(西班牙语言的)cultures report,much more pride and much less shame than others.
  Another factor that also made a big difference to people's happiness is income,but only at the lowest levels.  Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty.  But millionaires were only a little bit happier than'people on average incomes.  It seems that money. Makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.

A.Westerners value individual happiness as much as mutual satisfaction
