　　Vacations are a chance to take a break from work, see the world and enjoy time with family. But do they make you happier?

　　Researchers from the Netherlands set out to measure the effect that vacations have on overall happiness and how long it lasts. They studied happiness levels among 1,530 Dutch adults, 974 of whom took a vacation during the 32-week study period. The study showed that the largest lift in happiness comes from the simple act of planning a vacation. In the study, the effect of vacation anticipation lifted happiness for eight weeks.

　　After the vacation, happiness quickly dropped back to baseline levels for most people. How much stress or relaxation a traveler experienced on the trip appeared to influence post-vacation happiness. There was no post-trip happiness benefit for travelers who said the vacation was “neutral” or stressful.”

　　Surprisingly, even those travelers who described the trip as “relaxing” showed no additional jump in happiness after the trip. “They were no happier than people who had not been on holiday,” said the lead author, Jeroen Nawijn, tourism research lecturer at Breda University. The only vacationers who experienced an increase in happiness after the trip were those who reported feeling “very relaxed” on their vacation. Among those people, the vacation happiness effect lasted for just two weeks after the trip before returning to baseline levels.

　　One reason vacations don’t increase happiness after the trip may have to do with the stress of returning to work. And for some travelers, the holiday itself was stressful. “In comments from people, the thing they mentioned most referred to disagreements with a travel partner or being ill,” Mr. Nawijn said.

　　The study didn’t find any relationship between the length of the vacation and overall happiness. Since most of the happiness boost comes from planning and anticipating a vacation, the study suggests that people may get more out of several small trips a year than one big vacation, Mr. Nawijn said.

　　51. What’s the best title for this passage?

　　A. Post-vacation happiness B. Pre-vacation planning

　　C. Influence to vacations D. Research on vacations

　　52. The study implies that _________.

　　A. The longer the vacation is, the happier the travelers will be.

　　B. The better you get your vacation planned, the more happiness you will get.

　　C. It will make you happier if you divide a big vacation into small ones.

　　D. None of the travelers were happier than those who had not been on holiday,

　　53. Which of the statements is not mentioned in the passage?

　　A. People never have additional jump in happiness after the trip.

　　B. For most people, happiness quickly dropped back to baseline levels after the vacation.

　　C. The largest lift in happiness comes from the simple act of planning a vacation.

　　D. Vacations are a chance to get relaxed from work.

　　54. Which of the following is NOT the reason for not increasing happiness after a trip?

　　A. You got different ideas with your partners on holiday.

　　B. You caught a bad cold during the trip.

　　C. The worry about whether could return to work or not.

　　D. The holiday itself could get you stressed.

　　55. During the 32-week study period _______of the people involved took a vacation.
