According to Abraham Maslow, work helps us meet a number of important needs. His theory of human (36) assumes that human needs are arranged along a hierarchy(层级). When the needs at one level of the hierarchy are satisfied, the next set of needs begins to seem more important and to (37) for satisfaction.
At the base of the hierarchy lie our most (38) needs—hunger and thirst. While these physiological needs are (39) . and self-centered, they are also the most potent, for they support life itself. The next level on the hierarchy is (40) with our need for safety. After we feel (41) of three meals a day, we work to secure warmth and comfort, protection from harm, and a (42) future. The third set of needs, which becomes our greatest concern after we have established the necessary (43) , is that of "belongingness" and love.
