The old adage that “laughter is the best medicine” may contain an element of truth when it comes to heart health. A study has demonstrated that having a chuckle causes the tissue inside the heart to expand and increases oxygen flow around the body. Patients with coronary artery disease who engaged in a course of laughter therapy had reduced inflammation and better health, the research found. “Our study found that laughter therapy increased the functional capacity of the cardiovascular system，” said the lead author, Prof Marco Saffi, of the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre in Brazil. The findings were presented at the annual meeting of the European Society of Cardiology in Amsterdam, the world's largest heart conference. In the trial, scientists carried out a first-of-its-kind study to examine if laughter therapy could improve symptoms of patients with heart disease. It involved 26 adults with an average age of 64, all diagnosed with coronary artery disease, caused by plaque buildup in the walls of the arteries that supply blood to the heart. Over three months, half were asked to watch two different hour-long comedy programmes each week, including popular sitcoms. The other half watched two different serious documentaries, about topics such as politics or the Amazon rainforest. At the end of the 12-week study period, the comedy group improved by 10% in a test measuring how much oxygen their heart could pump around the body. 学生用书第27页 The group also improved in a second measure that tested how well arteries can expand. They also had blood tests to measure several inflammatory biomarkers, which indicate how much plaque has built up in the blood vessels, and whether people are at risk of heart attack or stroke. The results showed that these inflammatory markers had significantly reduced compared with the control group. “When patients with coronary artery disease arrive at hospital, they have a lot of inflammatory biomarkers，” said Saffi. “Inflammation is a huge part of the process of atherosclerosis, when plaque builds up in the arteries.” “This study found that laughter therapy is a good intervention that could help reduce that inflammation and decrease the risk of heart attack and stroke. 【词海拾贝】 1．demonstrate v. 证明 2．therapy n. 治疗，疗法 3．capacity n. 容量，容纳能力 4．trial n. 试验 5．symptom n. 症状 6．intervention n. 干预，干涉 【阅读理解】 阅读文本，回答以下问题 1．What does the passage mainly about?

The comedy group improved significantly. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Pumpkin(南瓜) carving at Halloween is a family tradition.We visit a local farm every October.In the pumpkin field，I compete with my three brothers and sister to seek out the biggest pumpkin.My dad has a rule that we have to carry our pumpkins back home，and as the eldest child I have an advantage—I carried an 85-pounder back last year. This year，it was hard to tell whether my prize or the one chosen by my 14-year-old brother，Jason，was the winner.Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their insides，but I was determined to prove my point.All of us were hard at work at the kitchen table，with my mom filming the annual event.I'm unsure now why I thought forcing my head inside the pumpkin would settle the matter，but it seemed to make perfect sense at the time. With the pumpkin resting on the table，hole uppermost，I bent over and pressed my head against the opening.At first I got jammed just above my eyes and then，as I went on with my task，unwilling to quit，my nose briefly prevented entry.Finally I managed to put my whole head into it，like a cork(软木塞) forced into a bottle.I was able to straighten up with the huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders. My excitement was short-lived.The pumpkin was heavy.“I'm going to set it down，now，” I said，and with Jason helping to support its weight，I bent back over the table to give it somewhere to rest.It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realized getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in.When I pulled hard，my nose got in the way.I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle，but it was no use.“I can't get it out！” I shouted，my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed space. 学生用书第28页 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 I was stuck for five or six minutes though it felt much longer. That video was posted the day before Halloween. [读后续写四步曲] 第一步　通读全文，理清脉络 1．读要素，弄懂故事大意 生活趣事可涉及生活中的尴尬窘境的解决等，在续写过程中常描写人物的欢笑。本文主要讲述了作者将头塞进南瓜却被卡在里面的趣事。 2．读人物，理清人物关系 I, my dad, my mom, my three brothers and my sister. 3．读时态，确定主体时态 一般过去时为主 4．读结构，了解叙述方式 第1段：交代事件：挑南瓜比赛。 第2段：挑完南瓜忘记称重，考虑把头塞进南瓜证明自己的南瓜大。 第3段：把头塞进南瓜的过程。 第4段：成功将头塞进南瓜却被卡住，无法拿出。 原文是按照事件发生的顺序来写的，我们在构思续写时应从这个叙述方式去进行拓展。 5．读语言，把握语言特色 原文中的语言特色： (1)动作描写 I bent over and pressed my head against the opening. Finally I managed to put my whole head into it... I was able to straighten up with the huge pumpkin resting on my shoulders. I bent back over the table to give it somewhere to rest. When I pulled hard，my nose got in the way. I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle，but it was no use. (2)情感描写 I was determined to prove my point. I'm unsure now why I thought forcing my head inside the pumpkin would settle the matter. ...as I went on with my task，unwilling to quit... My excitement was short-lived. I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table... (3)心理描写 Unfortunately we forgot to weigh them before taking out their insides. I realized getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in. 第二步　依据首句，构思框架 1．读懂两段首句 第一段首句译文：虽然我被卡住只有五六分钟，但感觉要长得多。 第二段首句译文：这段视频是在万圣节的前一天发布的。 第一段框架：叙述作者如何脱困，可描写作者害怕得哭了，引来父亲或兄弟姐妹帮忙。 第二段框架：录制视频被发到网上后网民的反应、作者的感悟。 2．写好三个衔接句 第一段首句后的衔接句：Growing more panicked, I began to cry. 第一段尾句：Then Mom told me she had just filmed me managing to pull my head out of the pumpkin. 学生用书第29页 第二段首句后的衔接句：Surprisingly, it became a hit that the video started racking up hundreds of thousands of views. 3．写好一个结尾句 I would say I learned from my lesson—look before you leap! 第三步　增加细节，展开续写 基于第一段的框架，我们可以补充以下细节： 头被南瓜卡住出不来哭泣(焦虑害怕)→父亲帮作者把头从南瓜中弄出来(如释重负)→妈妈说已经把视频拍摄下来。 基于第二段的框架，我们可以补充以下细节： 上传视频→视频走红(尴尬难为情)→回忆往事(开心)。 第四步　检查优化，整洁誊写 I was stuck for five or six minutes though it felt much longer.Growing more panicked, I began to cry. Fortunately, hearing me crying, Dad came and helped me lay my head on the table, so my neck could rest for a while. Then he said to me，“Listen, honey. I have to cut this pumpkin in half.” I had no choice but to keep still with my eyes tightly closed and listen to the knife moving on the pumpkin. Moments later，my head was finally released from this horrible pumpkin cage. Then Mom told me she had just filmed me managing to pull my head out of the pumpkin. That video was posted the day before Halloween.Surprisingly, it became a hit that the video started racking up hundreds of thousands of views. At the very beginning, hardly could I contain my embarrassment when I was recognized as the one in the video. However, with time going by, my life was back on track. Whenever I thought about the day on which I got my head stuck in a pumpkin. I couldn't help but laugh out loudly. I would say I learned from my lesson—look before you leap! Xiangsheng, a Traditional Art in China Xiangsheng, sometimes translated as crosstalk, is a traditional Chinese comedic performance in the form of a dialogue between two performers or more, even a solo monologue(独角戏). 相声，有时被翻译为crosstalk，是一种传统的中国喜剧表演形式，由两个或两个以上的表演者对话，或者单口说唱。 The language, rich in puns(双关语)and allusions, is delivered in a rapid, bantering(逗乐)style.Xiangsheng is one of China's foremost performing arts, and is typically performed in the Beijing dialect. 这种语言富含双关语和典故，以一种快速诙谐的方式传递。相声是中国重要的艺术形式之一，主要用北京方言。 Xiangsheng rose as a performing act during the Ming Dynasty. From the Qing Dynasty to the 1920s, Xiangsheng gradually developed to become a style of comedic monologue. Later Xiangsheng came to be performed as a dialogue and sometimes even in groups of three or more. 相声作为一种表演形式起源于明朝，从清朝到20世纪20年代，逐渐发展成为单口相声，然后逐步发展为对口相声，甚至是群口相声。 The earliest Xiangsheng comedian known by name is Zhang Sanlu, who performed in the mid-nineteenth century. 张三禄是最早的相声艺人，他主要活跃于19世纪中期。 单元检测卷(一)　Unit 1　Laugh out loud！ (时间：120分钟　满分：150分) (本栏目内容，在学生用书中以独立形式分册装订！) 第一部分：听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一个小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1．What is the man going to watch?

If you are traveling this year, choose a place you and your dog can enjoy equally. Crowds When you are planning on celebrating the holidays with a large crowd of family and friends, be aware of how this will affect your dog.Many dogs are not comfortable around large crowds, especially when they are not used to them.Dogs get nervous when they are surrounded by lots of unfamiliar people.In order to keep your dog comfortable during this time of year, make sure your dog has a reliable place to escape to when the crowds become noisy. Foods Many of the delicious foods you eat during the holiday season are simply not good for your dogs.If you want to make sure your dog gets to have as many tasty treats as you do during the holiday season, prepare some of your dog's favorite doggy treats in advance.Apples and carrots make great dog snacks.Learn what foods are harmful to dogs. Decorations Holiday decorations can also be a problem for dogs.Curious by nature, your dog may be interested in the holiday decorations at its eye level.Your dog may eat these decorations, which can be a major danger.When you decorate your home, make sure your dog can't touch the decorations, especially tinsel(金属线), which can cause health problems for animals if they eat it. The best holiday you can give your dog is one you spend with it.If you are planning on traveling, take your dog with you. 语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文。文章就如何让狗狗和主人一起度过一个愉快的假期给出了几点建议。 21．How should you care for your dog in a crowd?

Women with a strong sense of humor were found to live longer though they were ill, especially for those with heart problems and infections.Happy men seemed to be protected against infection. The researchers reported the findings from a 15-year study on the connection between the sense of humor and death among 53，556 women and men in their country.The team studied the influence of humor on people's way of thinking，social skills and emotion development，and examined death from different conditions：heart problems，infections and other health problems. The findings showed that for women，those who had high scores on a humorous way of thinking had a 48 percent less risk of death from all causes，a 73 percent lower risk of death from heart problems and an 83 percent lower risk of death from infection.For men，a connection was found only for the risk of death from infection—those with high humor scores had a 74 percent reduced risk.The researchers suggested the sex differences could be due to a small decrease in humor scores as the men aged.No connection was found for the influence of humor on social skills and emotion development. “The humorous way of thinking plays an essential part in people's personality(性格)and may influence the way people cope with everyday life，”said co-researcher Sven Svebak.“In this way，it may help reduce fighting in daily life，preventing the build-up of stress.”Although the sense of humor is a natural characteristic(特征)，it can also be developed through social activities. “I expect that children whose parents have no sense of humor when feeling challenges are less likely to develop their sense of humor to cope with everyday life when they grow up，”Sven Svebak said.“But if you had a humorless childhood，never fear—studies show people can learn to be humorous at any age.” 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了幽默感与死亡之间的联系，幽默感强的人死于各种疾病的风险较低。 24．What can we learn from the first paragraph? A．Humor could benefit people's health. B．Joyful women can live longer than happy men. C．Women who seldom laugh may fall ill easily. D．Humor makes people pay more attention to their health. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“Women with a strong sense of humor were found to live longer...Happy men seemed to be protected against infection.”可知，幽默可能使人免受疾病感染，即使生病也能活得更长，即幽默有益于人们的健康。故选A。 25．Why do men have a higher risk of death from infection than women? A．Because men have poor memories as they age. B．Because men become less humorous as they grow older. C．Because men have bad sleeping quality as they grow older. D．Because men take part in fewer social activities as they age. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“For men, a connection was found only for the risk of death from infection—those with high humor scores had a 74 percent reduced risk.The researchers suggested the sex differences could be due to a small decrease in humor scores as the men aged.”可知，男性感染的死亡风险高于女性是由于随着年龄的增长，男性的幽默得分略有下降，即男性越老越不幽默。故选B。 26．How does the author show the research findings? A．By listing data. B．By giving examples. C．By stating arguments. D．By making experiments. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中出现的“48 percent”“73 percent”“83 percent”“74 percent”可推知，作者是通过列举数据来展示研究结果的。故选A。 27．Which of the following would Sven Svebak agree with?

Recently, the World Meteorological Organization(WMO) warned that there is now a 50：50 chance of average global temperature reaching 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels in the next five years.A huge effort is needed to change the way we live, and wood is part of the solution.Wood can play a key role in replacing single-use plastics, from drinking straws to food packaging, as part of the global movement to end plastic pollution.Equally, wood can offer realistic alternatives(替代品) to steel, concrete and textile fibers that are kinder to the Planet. Earlier this year, the XV World Forestry Congress—the world's largest ever gathering on forests—urged people to make full use of the potential of legal, sustainably produced wood to transform the building industry and provide renewable energy and innovative new materials.In addition, representatives from several countries issued a call to stress efforts to use sustainable wood within the wider range of ongoing work to protect forests and restore degraded land. So what needs to happen to make this a reality? First, communicate the benefits of wood more effectively and improve public understanding of how sustainable forest management works.Secondly, we need to move faster towards economies that replace carbon-intensive materials with wood-based products where possible.As the buildings and construction industry currently emits almost 40 percent of energy-related global greenhouse gas emissions, switching to innovative wood-based building materials instead of concrete and steel could make a major difference to creating a sustainable environment. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了木材的优势及其有助于塑造可持续地球的潜力。 28．What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A．The future of wood-based products. B．The introduction to a new raw material. C．The significant benefits provided by wood. D．The essential part wood plays in construction industry. 答案：C 解析：段落大意题。根据第一段内容“首先提到森林不仅仅是地球的肺，如果管理得当，它们有巨大的潜力成为福利、收入和可再生产品的主要来源，紧接着提到我们要改变对木材的看法，木材是可再生的，可回收的，对气候友好的，多功能的材料。它是人类最古老的原材料之一。它甚至可以用来代替那些高碳排放的材料”可知，本段主要讲述的是木材的益处。 29．What is the current concern highlighted by the WMO? A．The decline in forest coverage. B．The consumption of fossil fuels. C．The warning in plastic pollution. D．The increase in the global temperature. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the World Meteorological Organization(WMO)warned that there is now a 50：50 chance of average global temperature reaching 1.5 degrees Celsius above per-industrial levels in the next five years”可知，世界气象组织警告称，在未来五 年，全球平均气温有50%的可能性比工业化前水平高1.5摄氏度。可见，当前世界气象组织关注的是全球气温的上升。 30．What was the call from the XV World Forestry Congress? A．Restoring degraded forests. B．Advertising the wooden products widely. C．Banning people from using plastic materials. D．Encouraging the use of wood in some fields. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知，世界林业大会鼓励在一些领域使用木材。 31．What can be a suitable title for the text?
