Cautious Europeans long ignored the toato, and until the early 1700s ost of the We people continued to drag their feet.

In his 1930 essay “Econoic Possibilities for Our Grandchildren “, John Keynes, acconist, ewrote that huan needs fall into two classes: absolute needs ,which are indupe what other have , and relative needs ,which ake us feel superior to our fellows He thought alough relative needs ay indeed be insatible (无止境的) this isnottrue ofabsolute
Keynes wans surely correct that only a sall part of total spending id decided by the super iority He was gretly istaken ,however ,in seeting this desive as the only source of deands
Decisions to spend are also driven by ideas of quality which can influnce the den alost all goods, including even basic goods like food. When a couple goes out for an an dinner,for exaple,the thought of feeling superior to others probably never coes to the. The goal is to share a special eal that stands out fro other eals.
There are no obvious liits to the escalation of deand for quality.For exaple ,porsche faous car producer,has a odel which was considered perhaps the best sport car on the ark Priced at over $120,000,it handles perfectly well and has great speen acceleration.But in 200 the producer introduced soe changes which ade the odel slightly better in handling acceleration.People who really care about cars find these sall iproveents exciting.To the,however,they ust pay alost four ties the price.
By placing the desire to be superior to other at the heart of his description of nisation deands,Keynes actually reduced such deands.However,the desire for higher quality has natural liits.
72.According to the passage,John Keynes Believed that_______.
A.desire is the root of both absolute and relative needs
B.absolute needs coe fro our sense of superiority
C.relative needs alone lead to insatiable deands
D.absolute needs are stronger than relative needs
73.What do we know about the couble in Paragraph 3?
A.They want to show their superiority
B.They find specialty iportant to eals
C.Their deands for food are not easily satisfied.
D.Their choice of dinner is related to ideas of quality.
74.What does the underlined word “escalation”in Paragraph 4 probably ean?
A.Understanding.
B.Increase
C.Difference
D.Study
75.The author of the passage that ______.
A. absolute needs have no liits
B. deands for quality are not insatiable
C. huan desires influsnce ideas of quality
D. relative needs decide ost of our spending
