Question

Read this selection from “What I Hope to Leave Behind.”

We have come to a place where success cannot be measured by the old standard. Just to make money is no gauge anymore of success. A man may not be able to make as much as his wife, may not be able to make enough to support his family, and yet he may be a success. He may have learned to be happy and to give happiness, too, in striving for things which are not material.

Which sentence best summarizes this selection?
Success is measured by our openness to new ideas.
Success is measured by the pleasure we create.
Success is measured by our families’ happiness.
Success is measured by the wealth we build.
