1.) Part A: Which of the following best describes the central idea of the article?

A) People gain just as much joy from buying temporary experiences as they do from buying lasting products

C) People feel negatively about buying products and positively about buying experiences

D) People gain more joy from buying experiences than buying products, but scientists have no explanation why this happens

B

Explanation:

B is the better choice. As it says in the article, "Plus when it comes to experiences, money isn’t as much of an issue, the researchers hypothesize. People may be competitive when it comes to keeping up with the Joneses, but tend to be less competitive about spending on experiences.
