Ⅰ.阅读理解 A The idea that you can use humor，laughter，and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However，it is really true and simple. The sense of humor，laughter and play have an important part in keeping you healthy. Treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter.Laughter is 　infectious　. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is.You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you，and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile，even with a stranger. Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play，and are told the benefits of being out playing. However，what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it's for children. Physical play is important to the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的)falling. Anyway，adding humor，laughter and play to our life will influence us mentally，physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active，more interesting and happier. 1．What does the underlined word “infectious” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Of great importance. B．Able to keep people in high spirits. C．Capable of quickly influencing other people. D．Able to prevent illness from spreading. 2．What can laughter increase according to the author? A．Cognitive abilities. B．Good relationships. C．A sense of humor. D．Responsibility and trust. 3．What does the author think the old should do? A．They should have a good rest. B．They should play like children. C．They should prevent cognitive falling. D．They should take part in physical play. 4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．Humor，Laughter and Play for Health B．Always Keep Our Body Healthy C．Have an Active and Happy Life D．Let Our Body and Mind Relax [语篇解读]　本篇是一篇议论文。幽默、笑和玩耍有益于身心健康，作者就它们对身心的影响进行了阐述。 1．C　[词义猜测题。由画线单词后面的“Have you ever heard smiling？”可知，此处指“当你听到一个孩子大笑时你能忍住不笑吗？”，由此可推断出，infectious 的意思是“有感染力的”。故 选 C。] 2．B　[推理判断题。 根据第二段中的“When laughter is shared...happiness”可知，当笑声传递开来时，它会让彼此关系更密切，会增加快乐，即会使人与人之间的关系更加友好。故选 B。 ] 3．D　[细节理解题。由第三段中的“However，what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as...illness”可知，我们经常忘记玩耍对老年人和对孩子是一样重要的，它可以帮助预防疾病，因此作者认为老年人应该在玩耍中活动身体。故选 D。] 4．A　[主旨大意题。 通读全文可知，文章就幽默、笑和玩耍对身心的影响进行阐述，说明了幽默、笑和玩耍有益于健康这一主题。故选A。] B Before I studied psychology，I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred.While I was right about that，I discovered there are lots of other psychological reasons that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke.When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh－and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be. I was attending a stand­up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their head off.The main reason why those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry with pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly.The joke was not only funny，it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians.That is，people were laughing because of both the funny joke and the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got. The better a joke makes a person feel, the more it includes other psychological factors，and the more the person will like it.For example，if you envy one of your friends，and someone tells a joke that is funny and，at the same time, which makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren't jealous(忌妒的)of him. In short, we laugh not only when we hear something funny，but also when we experience some kind of happiness that results from other psychological factors involved in the joke.I strongly object to making fun of anyone or 　belittling　 someone to make someone else laugh.All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person's emotions，he will certainly like it a lot. 5．What did the author find out after studying psychology? A．Only good jokes make people laugh. B．Many reasons lead to people's laughing. C．Funny things can make people laugh. D．Laughter can make people healthy. 6．Why did the audience laugh at the pedestrians? A．Because they played tricks on the pedestrians. B．Because the pedestrians behaved in a funny way. C．Because they could feel the pedestrians' happiness. D．Because their emotions were supported by the show. 7．What does the underlined word“belittling”probably mean ? A．Speaking highly of. B．Getting close to. C．Looking down on. D．Feeling pleased with. [语篇解读]　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要分析了除了笑话中有趣的部分之外，还有很多心理上的因素会导致人们大笑这一情况。 5．B　[细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“While I was right about that，I discovered there are lots of other psychological reasons that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke”可知，当作者学习心理学后，他发现除了笑话中有趣的部分之外，还有很多心理上的因素会导致人们大笑。所以 B项正确。 ] 6．D　[推理判断题。根据第二段可知，人们嘲笑那些过马路不遵守交通规则的行人，是因为他们发现自己对这些人愤怒的情感在这个笑话中得到了支持。故 D项正确。 ] 7．C　[词义猜测题。画线词所在句“I strongly object to making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh”中的or说明前后是选择关系，belittling和 making fun of感情色彩一致，故选 C项。] Ⅱ.阅读七选五 Everybody gets angry, but out­of­control angry isn't good for you or those around you.So here are five simple strategies to help you learn how to manage your anger： ●Relax.Breathe deeply from your stomach.　 1 　Repeat it to yourself and visualize a relaxing time and experience. ●Change the way you think.When you're angry，your thinking can get exaggerated(夸大的)．　 2 　For instance，instead of telling yourself，“Oh, it's terrible! Everything's ruined，”tell yourself，“It's understandable that I'm upset about it, but it's not the end of the world.” ●　 3 　 Statements like “This never works，” or “You're always forgetting things.”will make you feel your anger is justified(情有可原的)and there's no way to solve the problem.They might upset people who might be willing to work with you to find a solution. ●Have better communication.Angry people tend to jump to conclusions.If you are in a heated discussion, slow down.　 4 　And take your time before answering.Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, think carefully about what you want to say. ●Use humor.Psychologists say that highly angry people tend to think “things ought to go my way！” “ Silly humor” can help you get a more balanced perspective.So，when you feel that anger comes the next time, picture yourself as a king or queen，walking around，admired by everybody, and getting your own way in every situation.The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes，the more likely it is to put a smile on your face.　 5 　 A．Be careful with words like “never” or “always”． B．Listen carefully to what the other person is saying. C．Try replacing these thoughts with more reasonable ones. D．Avoid using these strategies when you're in a tense situation. E．Then slowly repeat a calm word or phrase such as “take it easy”． F．Try changing the topics so your talks won't turn into arguments. G．That will help you realize that the things you're angry about are really not very important.

Everything's ruined，” tell yourself, “It's understandable that I'm upset about it, but it's not the end of the world.”是对该空的举例说明，故选 C项。] 3．A　[根据下文 Statements like“This never works，” or“You're always forgetting things，”will make you feel your anger is justified(情有可原的)and there's no way to solve the problem.是对该空的进一步说明，故选 A 项。] 4．B　[根据下文 And take your time before answering.可知，先仔细听，然后再回答，符合事情的发展逻辑和语境，故选 B 项。 ] 5．G　[根据上文 The more detail you can get into your imaginary scenes，the more likely it is to put a smile on your face.可知选项G 中的 That 指代前文提到的幽默方式，故选 G项。] 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
