Asignificantchangeoccurredduringherearlytwenties.WhileactinginaproductionofOedipusRex,shecaught
the attention of a fellow actor, Michael N. Harbour. He remarked to the stage manager, “My goodness, she looks
exactly like my wife when I first met her.” The two actors started talking at a cast dinner and quickly became
friends.Cleaverrecallsfeelingcompletelydrawntohimandfascinatedbyhisfamily,withoutunderstandingwhy.
Their friendship grew,andHarbourbeganasking aboutherbackground.When Cleaver mentioned shewas from
Barnet in North London, he looked thoughtful and asked for her birthday. Her answer — “September 2, 1963” —
was the confirmation he needed. Harbour knew this matched the story of his wife Lesley, who as a teenager had
givenupadaughternamedClaireforadoption.Afterspeakingwithhiswife,hevisitedCleavertosharehisbelief.
Initially skeptical, Cleaver decidedto testHarbour byusingthe knowledge of her birth mother’s unusualmiddle

Overwhelmed but thrilled, Cleaver agreed to let him arrange a meeting with her birth mother at a hotel. When
Lesley opened the door, the two women stepped forward and embraced without a word. “Neither of us knew how

Remarkably, the coincidences didn’t end there. HelenWorth, another Coronation Street actress, turned outto be
the godmother of Cleaver’s half-sister and a longtime friend of Lesley. She had often unknowingly hinted at the
connection, sometimes telling Cleaver, “You were so like Lesley in that last scene,” making the real-life reunion
evenmoreextraordinary.

For decades, social scientists have debated the link between income and happiness. A 2025 cross-country
study published in the Journal of Positive Psychology — involving 120,000 participants from 45 countries across
NorthAmerica,Europe,andAsia—offersnewinsightsintothiscomplexrelationship,challengingsomelong-held
assumptions.
The research team, led by Dr. Elena Marquez from the University of Zurich, first analyzed the connection
between “absolute income” (total annual earnings) and self-reported happiness scores (measured on a 10-point
scale). They found that for individuals with annual incomes below 75,000, there was a strong positive correlation:
each 10,000 increase in income was associated with a 0.8-point rise in happiness. However, above 75,000, the
correlation weakened dramatically — an additional 10,000 only led to a 0.1-point increase. Dr. Marquez labeled
this $75,000 figure the “happiness threshold” (幸福阈值): beyond this point, more money did not significantly
boosthappiness.
What surprised researchers even more was the impact of “relative income” (income compared to peers in the
same social group, such as colleagues or neighbors). For participants earning above the 75,000 threshold, relative
income became a key factor. Those who earned 20% more than their peers reported happiness scores 1.2 points
higher than those who earned 20% less — even if both groups had annual incomes above 100,000. “It’s not just
how much you have,” Dr. Marquez explained, “but how much you have compared to people around you. This
‘socialcomparisoneffect’oftenoverridestheinfluenceofabsoluteincomeoncebasicneedsaremet.”
The study also highlighted regional differences. In high-cost-of-living regions like New York or Tokyo, the
happiness threshold was slightly higher — around 95,000 — due to increased expenses for housing and daily
第9页/共14页
学科网(北京)股份有限公司necessities. In contrast, in areas with lower living costs, such as parts of rural India or Vietnam, the threshold
droppedto 50,000.Notably,thesocialcomparison effectwas morepronouncedin individualistic cultures (e.g., the
U.S., Germany) than in collectivist cultures (e.g., Japan, Thailand), where community well-being is often
prioritizedoverpersonalincomestatus.
Critics of the study point out its limitations: it relied on self-reported happiness scores, which may be
influenced by temporary mood swings, and it did not account for non-financial factors like health, family
relationships, or work-life balance — all of which affect happiness. Dr. Marquez acknowledged these gaps but
emphasized the study’s value: “Our findings help clarify when money matters for happiness and when it doesn’t.
For policymakers, this means focusing on reducing poverty (to lift people above the threshold) rather than just
boostingoveralleconomicgrowth. Forindividuals,it’sareminderthatchasingmoremoneybeyondacertainpoint

For some readers, a dictionary opens up a world. Dictionaries contain multiple pleasures, such as settling
word-game wars by turning actual pages. For the rest, a dictionary is either outdated or strictly online. In 2012,
EncyclopaediaBritannicastoppedprintingneweditions,goingdigital-only.
In his book Unabridged: The Thrill of (and Threat to) the Modern Dictionary, American journalist Stefan
,
Fatsis writes of the shift brought about by our decade-old dependence on search engines: “Definitions, good and
bad,wereaclickaway,andmostpeopledidn’tcareorcouldn’ttellwhichwaswhich:expertresearch,scrapeddata,
zombie(僵尸)websites,whateverpoppedupinasearch.”
WhenIwasachild,Iloveddictionaries,andsodideverysensibleparentinCalcutta.Ifyourchildwasliterate,
one of the 20 volumes of the Oxford English Dictionary or an illustrated Collins was the surest way to keep them
happilyoccupied,settingthemoffonhuntsforlostorforgottenwords.
Fatsis sees dictionary-making as “a human endeavor stretching back to the third millennium BCE”. From the
Akkadians to Sanskrit scholars, what dictionary makers hoped to do went far beyond the already tricky task of
writingdefinitions:theirjobwastoexplainandtrack“theendlessshiftsinlanguage”.
Change is inevitable,though Fatsis also asks whatwe lose in the name ofconvenience.He writes, “the job of
the dictionary was firmly established... By the time I finished this book, it wasn’t clear how much longer
flesh-bone-and-blood lexicographers (词典编纂者) would be needed to document the march of the English
language. Between traditional search engines andAI-enhanced search through LLMs (large language models), the
waywelookupwords,andfindmeaninginlanguageitself,haschanged.”
We can’t claim that humanity still needs physical dictionaries. Like encyclopedias and atlases (地图册), the
bestofthemhavelongmovedonline.Indeed,thestartingpointsofmostsearchenginesweretheencyclopediasand
dictionaries compiled (编纂) by experts. But I plan to hold on to my beloved, dog-eared physical dictionaries —
suchpricelesstimecapsules,oneofthelastparadisesoffreedomfromtheendlessscrollofdigitalcontent.
