【解析】文章主要讲了金钱与幸福的问题，告诉人们不要过于关注金钱而是要更加注重生活中的幸福的道理。

1.考查固定搭配。concern一般与about搭配表示担心……，关注……，句意：不要太关注钱，因为它会改变你而不能获得幸福。故填about。

2.考查形容词转变为副词。根据提示应将形容词actual转变为副词形式actually，actually放在句子开头表示事实上。句意：事实上，钱和幸福并没有什么关系。故填actually。

3.考查形容词否定形式。根据后面“you will use that money for more unhappiness”可知前面应将happy改为unhappy。句意：如果你有钱但不开心的话，用钱时你将更加不开心。故填unhappy。

4.考查固定用法。keep doing……为固定用法，所以要把look改为looking。句意：但人还是希望得到钱就好像钱能带来幸福一样。故填looking。

5.考察固定用法。be ready to do表示预备去做……。句意：如果其他地方有更多的钱，人们随时准备去改变他们的路线。故填to change。

6.考查反身代词。这里应指你自己，即要将you改为yourself，句意：一旦钱来了，突然你就不再是你自己了。故填yourself。

7.考查动词第三人称单数。根据主语he or she 可知have要改为has。句意：我不因为他或她有钱而称一个人世俗。故填has。

8.考查定语从句。这里in which引导定语从句修饰life。句意：非物质主义的生活就是钱只是一种手段而幸福占多数的生活。故填which。

9.考查形容词转变为名词。in the majority表示占多数的意思。句意：幸福占多数。故填majority。

10.考查不定冠词。句中缺少冠词，所以要加a。句意：你知道你是谁你要去哪儿，然后你将看到你的生活有有意义的质量。故填a。
