For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US．It will keep kids home from school． 1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate．
The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65－team US men's college basketball tournament(联赛)． 2 Teams compete against each other in a single－elimination(单局淘汰)tournament that eventually crowns a national champion．
