Not necessarily, Richard, an economist at the University of Southern California, in his new book says that richer people are more likely to【B2】______ themselves as being happy than poorer people are. But steady【B3】______ in the American economy have not been【B4】______by steady and continuous increases in most people’s【B5】______ of their own happiness.

答案
accompanied
解析
语义推断题。空格前是been,空格后是by,空格处应填入动词的过去分词形式构成被动语态。上文中提到经济稳步发展,下文中提到人们幸福感稳步发展,由此可知,空格处单词应该具有“随着,伴随”之意。结合录音,不难填人accompanied。
