I. 語篇閱讀 根據短文內容，選擇最佳答案。

The pursuit of success is a natural human drive. We all desire success in one form or another.

We all pursue happiness most of the time every day. Perhaps you want to get a promotion or a higher grade， or run a successful business. If we ask ourselves why we wish to achieve something， the inevitable answer is that we believe it will make us happy. Now we must ask ourselves if this is true， and whether there might be a quicker route to happiness. Some people said that if you ask anyone why they are doing what they are doing， their ultimate answer will be because it makes them happy. A person starting up her own business might initially say she wants to make money and have more freedom. Ask her why and she’ll say because it will let her spend more time with her family， ask her again and she will say that this quality time will bring her happiness.

Understanding the idea could make your life easier. We all want success， and we all want happiness. So what happens when we unify these two powerful ideas？ Two words， with one meaning. Success and happiness are the same.
