The family moved to New York when Ma was seven years old. At a young age, Ma began studying violin and piano and finally settling on the cello(大提琴) in 1960 at age four. The genius began performing before audiences at age five and performed for Presidents Dwight D. Eisenhower and John F. Kennedy when he was seven.

Yet research now suggests that is the wrong idea. Family traditionsof any formcan save a holiday, making it well worth the effort of getting everyone in the same room. In a series of studies to be published in the Journal of the Association for Consumer Research, hundreds of online subjects described traditions they performed with their families during Christmas, New Years Day and Easter, from tree decoration to egg hunts. Those who said they performed collective traditions, compared with those who said they did not, felt closer to their families, which made the holidays more interesting, which in turn made them more enjoyable. Most surprising, the types of activities they describedfamily dinners with special foods, religious ceremonies, watching the ball drop in Times Squaredid not have a direct bearing on enjoyment. But the number of them did. Apparently having family traditions makes the holidays better and the more the merrier. The study could measure only correlations(關(guān)聯(lián)) between subjects responses, leaving causality uncertain Do traditions increase holiday pleasure, or do people who already enjoy the holidays choose to perform more traditions? Yet enjoyment ratings were higher after people describe traditions, suggesting that simply thinking about them can add a feeling of warmness to ones experience. “Whatever the tradition is, and however small it may seem, it helps people to really get closer to one another,” says Ovul Sezer, a researcher at Harvard Business School and the papers primary author. “With some traditions we dont even know why we do them, but they still work,” she says. It could be that traditions offer “small, nonobvious ways” to get people to share an experience without feeling awkward or forced, suggests Kathleen Vohs, a psychologist at the University of Minnesota and one of Sezers co-authors.28. About the family collective activities, what really matters?A. The number of them. B. The form of themC. The place where they take place D. The time that they last29. The underlined word “causality” in paragraph 3 refers to the relationship between _.A. cause and effect B. opinionandfactC. whole and partD. example and conclusion30. Why can family traditions bring people closer according to Kathleen Vohs?A. Because they offer chances for people to get together.B. Because people know the meaning of each tradition.C. Because they work in small and not obvious ways.D. Because people can do things together feeling relaxed.31. Whats the best title for this passage?A. Family traditions are on the rise.B. Family traditions increase happiness.C. Put your smart phone down.D. Family is where happiness lies.D Brain activity may continue for more than 10 minutes after the body appears to have died, according to a new study. Researchers had previously thought that brain activity ends before or shortly after the heart stops beating. But a team of doctors affiliated with the University of Western Ontario in Canada has documented a case in which a patient continued to experience brain wave activity for about 10 minutes after he had been announced clinically dead (or brain dead). The unusual circumstance came about as the team in Canada was conducting routine research regarding the process of death in humans. As four terminal patients were removed from life support, their vital signs(生命體征) were monitored for a length of time. Three of the patients stopped sending brain signals almost immediately after their hearts stopped, but the fourth instead began producing signals that are normally seen in a person that is in a very deep sleep delta waves and continued to do so for 10 minutes and 38 seconds. In the case, doctors confirmed their patient was dead through a range of the normal observations, including the absence of a pulse(脈搏) and unreactive pupils(瞳孔). They also conducted a series of tests to make sure all of the equipment was working fine. After finding no problems, they reported that they had no explanation for what they had observed. Scientists not involved with the research are cautious to draw any sort of conclusions since the phenomenon only occurred in one of four test patients. What happens to the body and mind after death remains almost entirely mysterious to scientists. Two other studies last year, for instance, showed that genes appeared to continue functioning and even function more energetically in the days after people die. Whatsreallygoing on? Thats the rational question following this latest brain activity study.32. Previously, brain activity was thought to _.A. last much longer than heart beat. B. end as the heart stops.C. stop in a very deep sleep. D. prevent genes functioning.33. What was special about the fourth patient after death?A. His pupils made no reaction. B. He had no pulse already.C. His brain waves were monitored. D. His life support wasnt removed.34. Whats the scientists attitude towards this observation?A. Careful.B. Positive.C. Negative.D. Uninterested.35. Why does the writer mention the other two studies done last year?A. To express dissatisfaction with the scientists work.B. To show brain activity after death remains a mystery.C. To invite the readers to give more such examples.D. To encourage scientists to do more brain studies.第二節(jié)（共5小題：每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 Everyone strives to be a great person, kind and caring.
