What do we mean by a satisfactory standard of living? Obviously, it must include the basic necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter. To get these necessities on regular basis, a person must have a reliable income. But we have other needs which would probably also be included as basic, such as health and education facilities.
We may think of all of these as our needs. Yet most of us would be far from satisfied if we had nothing more than these which are supplied for us. We all enjoy extra income to spend on things like books, sports or hobbies. Sometimes we save some of this extra income to pay for future expense of this type on holidays. So we must add our wants to our basic needs. Our standard of living is the degree, to which these needs and wants are satisfied.
But as time goes on, what we think of as our basic needs changes. Twenty years ago a television would have been a luxury, and still is in many countries now. Even now we cannot say it is a need in the same sense as food, clothing and shelter. Yet if most of the people of a country have one, it comes to be accepted as a need. It is possible therefore to have food, clothing and shelter and still be poor by the standards of our own society. [br] We all enjoy______.
选项
A、having only reliable income
B、having reliable income and extra income
C、having nothing more than food and clothing
D、having nothing more than reliable income
答案
B
解析
细节题。文章第一段提到,满足人的基本需求要有稳定的收入。第二段的第三句提到,我们都喜欢把额外的收入花在诸如书籍、运动或者爱好上,因此正确答案为B(有稳定的收入和额外的收入)。选项A和选项D均表示只有稳定的收入,不符合文中的意思。选项C(只有食物和衣服)也不符合文章内容。故本题选B。
