Midlife Crisis and U(1/2)
A new study shows that unhappiness in middle age, also known as midlife crisis, is universal experience. Two economists did the study. * : Andrew Oswald of the University of W Warwick in England and David Blanch Flower at * college Dartmouth College in N New Hampshire. They used information collected earlier on two million people from eighty nations.

一项新的研究表明中年不幸也被称作“中年危机”是一个全球性的经历。两位经济学家做个这项研究：英国华威大学的Andrew Oswald和美国新罕布什尔达特茅斯学院的David Blanch Flower。他们使用的信息是两年前从80个国家200万人中搜集的。

They find found that people around the world seem to share an emotional their design in life. That design, they say, it is shaped like the letter U. Levels of happiness are highest when people are young and when they are old. In the middle, however, most people’s happiness and life satisfaction levels drop.

他们发现所有人似乎都要在生活中分享情感设计。他们说，这种设计的形状就像字母U。幸福感的水平在年轻和年老的时候是最高的。然而，在中年的时候，大多数人的幸福感和生活满意度水平就下降了。

Professor O Oswald says some people suffer from midlife depression more than others. But, he says, it happens to men and women, to single and married people, to rich and poor and to those with and without children.

O教授说一些人比另一些人遭受了更严重的中年焦虑。但是，他说，这种状况发生在男人和女人，单身和已婚者，富人和穷人，有孩子和没有孩子的人身上。
 
Generally speaking, people reach their lowest levels between the ages of about forty and fifty-five. But then, as they continue into old age, their happiness starts to climb back up. What the research does not show is why all this happens. Professor O Oswald says one possibility is the that people recognize their limitations in middle age and give up on some long-held dreams.

一般来说，人们在40到55岁之间达到最低水平。但是，之后，随着他们继续进入老年，他们的幸福度就开始回升。这项调查没有显示出的是为什么会发生这些事。O教授说一种可能是人们认识到自己在中年的能力有限并且放弃了一些长时间拥有的梦想。
