People are troubled by a feeling of boredom and discontent, so they seem to yearn for something that may help to boost their spirits. The rich often feel depressed and professional men often feel hopelessly thwarted. Comprehension questions of Text II (2) 2. What is the first of the two causes that prevent people from being as happy as one might expect? It is the necessity of readiness to submit to others in some large organization. Conformity is encouraged and submission is a virtue. If you are bubbling with energy and laden with ideas, you constantly find yourself in trouble. You are bossed about by some big man at the top who is elderly, weary and cynical. The bright people always suffer from the impossibility of doing anything they believe to be right. Comprehension questions of Text II (3) 3. What is the major cause that prevents people from being happy as much as possible? Most people act on some principles rather than on impulse. They believe in a general theory on how to make one happy, but the theory is basically false. A competitive struggle dominates life in which happiness lied in getting ahead of those who are your neighbors, colleagues or friends. They forget joys devoid of competitive elements. Though it is true that you are mad if you always yield to impulse, it is no less true that you may dry up by soft degrees if you never yield to impulse. If you desire to live a healthy and happy life, you should allow impulse to have sufficient scope to remain alive and you should preserve a range of interests. However, if you live merely on principle, you can hardly feel happy
