Answer to Question 1

Answer: Although many people think that more money leads to being a happier person, this isn't necessarily the case. In fact, the main finding is that once people have enough money to provide the necessities, more money does not make them that much happier.

Answer: The text discusses a study in which Dutch factory workers were given feedback about how much energy they had conserved, and some workers received feedback comparing their unit to others. Social comparison led these workers to feel as though they could outperform the other unit and conserve more energy.
