As the       ( participate)listened, the researchers observed their     ( emotion) reactions, as well as changes in heart rate, breathing rate and palm-sweat production. The two groups disagreed about whether a particular musical selection was happy or sad. But they all had similar levels of arousal.
These findings suggest that some aspects of how we react to music are universal, rather     strictly cultural.
The study       (publish )in the journal Frontiers in Psychology last month. It showed fundamental acoustical(音响的) features seem to be responsible for the similar responses of the Canadians and the Congolese Pygmies.

Red envelopes     (relate) to the Chinese Lunar New Year for long. I myself have had plenty of    (experience) both receiving and giving out red envelopes in the past, and generally speaking, it's been fun. I mean, who doesn't love free money?
I'm truly surprised by the extent of people's obsession with virtual red envelopes this year. In fact everyone I know spent at least a day or two     (crazy) shaking their smart phones, mostly trying to get as much lucky money as possible. Thanks to messaging app giant WeChat's new feature     allows users to send money electronically, grabbing virtual red envelopes has never seemed so easy.
Just in case you are one of the very few people still not on the bandwagon, here's    it works. Givers link their WeChat to their bank accounts, and then they can send specified amounts of money to their WeChat contacts through a personal message. They can also put the cash up    grabs in chat groups full of friends, and anyone who acts fast enough will get  share. Later, receivers can transfer the funds from their WeChat back into their own bank accounts.
In theory, this sounds like a fun game. I'm always for some harmless fun in life, so my natural response would be: Why not? Moreover, I've always believed that it's human nature to want free stuff, regardless of whether you actually need it or not. This may not be a good quality,    it's not against the law, so I won't get all judgmental here.  (consider) these reasons, I really can't fault anyone for their enthusiasm in grabbing virtual red envelopes. I would have done it too,     I not thought linking WeChat to my bank accounts was too much trouble.
