问题     The American definition of success is largely one of acquiring wealth and a high material standard of living. It is not surprising,【C1】______, that Americans have valued education for its monetary value. The belief is widespread in the United States【C2】______the more schooling people have, the more money they will make when they leave school. The belief is strongly reflecting the desirability of an undergraduate university degree, or a professional degree such as medicine or law【C3】______the undergraduate degree. The money value of graduate degrees in【C4】______such as art, history, or philosophy is not yet great.
    This belief in the monetary value of education is【C5】______by research outcomes on income. Ben Wattenberg, a social scientist, estimates that in the【C6】______of a lifetime a man with a college school diploma in 1972 could earn about $380,000 more than a man who only had a high school diploma. Perhaps this helps to explain survey【C7】______which showed that Americans who wished they had lived their lives differently in some way regretted【C8】______of all that they did not get more education. The regret is【C9】______by those who have made themselves to the top and by those who have not.
