四、閱讀測驗    Denmark has once again been ranked as the happiest nation in the world, this time by UN’s World HappinessReport 2016 Update. This is not the first time the Danes have been awarded this prestigious title. Back in 1973, theEuropean Commission decided to set up a “Eurobarometer” to find out about issues affecting its citizens. Sincethen its member states have been surveyed about well-being and happiness. Amazingly Denmark has topped the tableevery year since 1973.    Professor of Economics Christian Bjørnskov from Aarhus Business School knows all about happiness, and heeven wrote his PhD on the subject. “The happiness surveys normally ask people to evaluate their lives. This researchshows what makes the Danes so happy is that they are very trusting of other people they don’t know. Trust helpsmake people happy.    Also just as importantly, Danes feel empowered to be able to change something in their life if they don’t like it,”he says. “The great thing about Danish society is that it doesn’t judge other people’s lives. It allows them to choosethe kind of life they want to live, which is sometimes not always possible in other countries, so this helps add to theoverall satisfaction of people living here,” he adds.    It also seems the Danes’ attitude to money is refreshingly different from other countries. “Money is not asimportant in the social life here, as for example Britain and America. We probably spend our money differently here.We don’t buy big houses or big cars, we like to spend our money on socialising with others,” concludes the Professor.
