It’s a standard observation that， 大家普遍认为…

and后面的句子：22% of respondents around the world told the Gallup organization they felt angry, a record since the question was first asked in 2006.

主语：22% of respondents around the world
动作：told the Gallup organization they felt angry

全球 22%的受访者向盖洛普咨询公司表示，他们感到愤怒

后面有一个逗号接a record since the question was first asked in 2006. 这里是一个插入语，这个插入语是放在最后的，所以第二个逗号这里就变成了句号, 这里的插入语想补充说明的是：全球有22%的人表示愤怒，这一个现象破了记录。
