March Madness
For the rest of the month, an epidemic (流行病) will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school. College students will ignore piles of homework. Employees will suddenly lose their abilities to concentrate.
The disease, known as "March Madness", refers to the yearly 65-team US men's college basketball tournament. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April. Teams compete against each other in a single elimination tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.
Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness.
The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends, husbands against wives, and colleagues against bosses.
Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.
This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Last year, the little-known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.
College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name, for their university and themselves. But that doesn't mean money isn't involved.
About $4 billion will be spent gambling on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will draw over $500 million in advertising revenue this year, topping the post-season revenue,including that of the NBA.
What will happen in the remaining part of the month?()
A.Many Americans will be sent to madhouses.
B.Great excitement will spread across the US.
C.About 20 million Americans will be put in prison.
D.
选项
A deadly epidemic will break out in the US.
答案
B
解析
细节题。题干:在这个月剩余的日子里会发生什么?利用题干关键词仇eremainingpart of the month可以定位到文章第一段,讲“美国将有一场传染病袭来,小孩子不想上学,大学生不想做作业,上班的人也不能集中精力工作。这种病就是“三月疯狂”,即每年65支大学生篮球队的巡回赛”,显然A、C、D都是错误的,所以正确答案为B“巨大的兴奋和激动将传遍全国”。
