Multiple Choice

Choose the appropriate letter to indicate the conclusion that can be drawn from each passage. In his book Luxury Fever , author Robert H.Frank asks us to imagine two parallel universes, two societies that are isolated from another but alike in all respects except for one: everyone in Society A lives in a 4,000-square-foot house, and everyone in Society B lives in a 3,000-square-foot house.He also asks us to imagine that the people who live in Society B used the resources they saved by building smaller houses to improve their overall living conditions by funding the construction of high-speed public transportation.Therefore, when the residents of Society B leave their 3,000-square-foot houses to go to work, they face a hassle-free, fifteen-minute commute.Meanwhile, the residents of Society A, who poured all of their resources into an extra 1,000 square feet of living space, face a grueling, one-hour long automobile commute through heavy traffic, a stressful activity that has been shown to cause significant mental and physical damage.What Frank wants to know is this: In which society would you choose to live?
