本篇听写只听写嘉宾的话，主持人的不需要听写。
主持人的话①："Why would you want to know the answers to these questions?"
主持人的话②： "And then we can ask you, what have you found so far?""What we did was we added to the survey of consumers the following question: 'Now think about the past week and the feelings you've experienced. Please tell me if each of the following was true for you much of the time this past week: You were happy. You felt sad. You enjoyed life, You felt depressed.' And people are asked to give yes-no answers to each of those four questions. That takes only about forty-five seconds for people to answer that, so it's quite quick."
"Well, actually maybe I could explain how this relates to language because I think that answers those questions, too. So, in most languages, the word for happiness is related to the word for good luck. And in English, for example, we have the word 'happenstance' or this archaic phrase 'as happ has it,' which are both about luck and things that happen by chance.
