快乐的人说话更吸引别人

        Here’s what the researchers found:

　　 研究人员发现：

　　The happiest participants spent 25 percent less time alone and 70 percent more time talking than the unhappiest participants. The happiest participants also had twice as many substantive conversations and one-third as much small talk as the unhappiest participants.

　　 最快乐的参与者比最不快乐的独处时间少25%，与他人说话的时间多70%。同时，前者有实质内容的交谈是后者的两倍，闲聊数量是后者的 1/3。

　　 The findings suggest that happy lives are social and conversationally deep, rather than solitary and superficial. The researchers think that deep conversations may have the potential to make people happier, though the findings from this study don’t identify cause-andeffect between the two.

　　结论显示，快乐的生活具有社会层面的意义并与日常交谈有关，而并不仅仅是个体差异和表面现象。虽然这项研究的结论并没有发现谈话种类与快乐度之间的因果联系，但研究人员认为，有深度的交谈也许更可能让人快乐。
