题目内容：
A program developed by the Prime Minister David Cameron in Britain was run to measure the nation's wellbeing(幸福感)recently.
The Office for National Statistics(ONS) analysed responses from more than 2,000 people. The results showed that job security, personal health and relationships between family members were at the top three of most people's concerns.
Other key factors of a happy life were parents' sense of the security of their children's future. Parents are often concerned whether their children can have a good life and a nice place to live. People were more likely to consider having a job to be important to them than being paid a high salary.
Anastasia, a social policy analyst, said employment was central to people's sense of identity and wellbeing. “A job is about your life; it is not about your income，” she said, “It is about every aspect—having the motivation to get up in the morning, selfrespect and being a role model for your children. Income is almost secondary to that. People's lives fall apart if they don't have a job. They are much more likely to be depressed if they are out of work, and there is a strong relationship between unemployment and family breakdown and health difficulties.”
The Prime Minister launched the program in an attempt to create a broader measure of Britain's success than the performance of the economy. Mr Cameron said governments had a role in helping people feel better and that the national wellbeing index should help wider society build a better life.
Paul Allin, director of the wellbeing project at the ONS, said the program would combine objective data, such as employment and life expectancy rates, with subjective(主观的) measures, such as job satisfaction and selfreported health, to give a more complete picture of national wellbeing. “We want to encourage people to tell us what matters to them，” he said, “The more responses we have to the debate, the more realistic a picture of the UK we will have.”
