请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

It’s the American dream—getting married, buying a home, and settling down to have children. Everyone knows that parenthood is one of the great joys of lift und that it 36 greatly to one's happiness and sense of well-being. Bul in that 37 everyone may be wrong: Research shows that not only does having children not 38 produce increased happiness, but it may actually 39 it.

Sociologist Robin Simon, who studied thousands of Amcrican families, 40 her findings this way: “Parents experience lower levels of emotional well-being, less frequent positive emotions and more frequent 41 emotions than their childless peers (同龄人). In fact, no group of parents—married, 42 , step or even empty nest—reported greater emotional well-being than people who 43 had children.”

The 51 of parenthood一nighttime feedings, dirty diapers, fighting siblings (兄弟姐妹), and so forth—may be much more common but tend to withdraw into the background when parents reflect back on the experience.

52 when parents are asked whether having children enriches their lives, they tend to 53 definitely. But when parents’ current sense of well-being is actually 54 at various points in time, the truth appears: Parents are not actually happier than people who do not have children, and on some occasions the parents actually seem to do 55 . On any given day, parents have fewer
