A
I burst out laughing as I held up the hat I had just finished knitting.It was my first attempt at knitting.I made a mistake somewhere along the way, and the hat I wanted to make for myself turned out too small to fit me or anyone else.
I worked at Monroe Carell Jr.Children's Hospital.It was a stressful job and humor was always appreciated.I sewed a little flower onto the side of the hat and brought it to work the next day.We team members all had a good laugh at my mini hat and got back to our patients.I stuck the hat in a drawer and forgot about it.
Days later, a 4yearold girl came in for an echocardiogram (超声心动图).She was wearing a knit cap with a baby doll in her arms.Her facial expression obviously showed she didn't believe me.So I offered her the transducer, so she could take pictures of her doll's heart.Not interested.I made animals with the ultrasound gel (超声波凝胶).She would have none of it.When I asked whether her dolly had a name, she threw her doll to the floor, and I saw my chance.I picked up the doll and straightened her dress.
“I know it's kind of scary to have this test,” I said to the doll, “but I promise it won't hurt.What—your head is cold? You wish you had a hat?”
I pulled the hat from my drawer and slipped it onto the doll's bald head.It was a perfect fit.The girl smiled and the rest of the check went well.I have never seen her again since she left, but I wonder how she is doing every time I knit a new hat.My skills have improved with each one.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者通过自己编织的一顶帽子与医院中的一个小女孩互动,从而帮助小女孩减轻了对做超声心动图的恐惧,让原本要废弃的针织作品变得意义非凡的故事。
1.Which of the following can best describe Paragraph 1?
A.Well begun is half done.
B.Mistakes are hardly avoided.
C.Things don't always go as planned.
D.Laughing is the best medicine.
解析:选C。推理判断题。第一段主要讲作者第一次织帽子,本想给自己织的,结果因为过程中出了差错,帽子织小了,谁都戴不了。这体现出事情并不总是按照计划进行的。故选C。
2.What did the author intend to do with the little girl?
A.To gain her trust.
B.To give her some medicine.
C.To look after her.
D.To make her smile.
解析:选A。推理判断题。根据文章最后两段的描述可知,小女孩来做超声心动图时很抗拒,对作者提供的各种尝试都不感兴趣,而作者最后给她的娃娃戴上帽子后,小女孩态度转变,检查得以顺利进行,由此可推断作者这么做是为了获得小女孩的信任,让她配合检查。故选A。
3.What happened to the author's knitting hat later?
A.It was too big for the author.
B.It was put in a drawer forever.
C.It was given to the girl's doll.
D.It was thrown away by the girl.
解析:选C。细节理解题。根据最后一段的描述,可知作者把那顶自己织的帽子从抽屉里拿出来,给小女孩的娃娃戴上了。所以帽子是给了女孩的娃娃,故选C项。
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.A Hat Enriched Your Life
B.A Hat Brought Much Fun
C.A Hat Could Give Courage
D.A Hat Made a Great Difference
解析:选D。主旨大意题。文章围绕着作者织的那顶原本被认为不合适、差点被遗忘的帽子展开,重点讲述了它在给小女孩做检查时发挥了重要作用,让原本抗拒检查的小女孩开始配合作者工作,使检查顺利进行,强调了这顶帽子产生的巨大影响。所以D项“一顶帽子产生了很大影响”作为标题最合适。

Videoconferencing has been around for more than 20 years.Under some special circumstances in the past few years, though, you would find that many people needing to attend a meeting remotely would be calling from a real conference room full of their teammates.Today, we're routinely holding video conferences that are 100% virtual (虚拟的).And this is creating a problem that technology can't fix.
The problem is us, specifically the fact that we haven't evolved socially to the point where we can bear much separation.So much of our wellbeing and work productivity is decided by how close we are physically.The removal of that for any period of time can be severely damaging.One surprising victim of social distancing is laughter.
Normally people laugh about 18 times per day.And 97% of these times we're laughing with others—we are 30 times more likely to laugh with others than to laugh alone.Think about it: How often when you and your friends laugh at something, and is that something actually funny? Research shows that 80% of what people laugh at is really not that funny.
So why do people laugh? They laugh in order to laugh with others.Just as everyone starts yawning (打哈欠) when one person yawns, most people can't help but laugh when those around them do.This is why TV comedy shows often use prerecorded laughs.
Laughing in response to other people's laughing is not just a behavioral phenomenon.When we laugh, our body produces two key chemicals: endorphin which helps relieve pain and sets off feelings of pleasure, and dopamine which can improve learning, the motivation and attention.In fact, studies show that people can stand 15% more pain simply by laughing for a few minutes beforehand.Laughter is also associated with higher motivation and productivity at work.
In today's homealone, virtual team world, this is exactly what you as a team leader should be doing: For your team members to stay healthy and productive, you need to get them to laugh more and stress less.
[语篇解读]本文是议论文。视频会议对“笑声”产生了很大的影响,作为团队的领导者,为了让你的团队保持健康和高效,你应该让他们多笑、少紧张。
5.What is the problem mentioned at the start of the text?
A.Physical weakness.
B.Lack of technology.
C.Social distance.
D.Reliance on virtual conferences.
解析:选C。推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句和第二段第一句可知,现在完全虚拟的视频会议带来了一个技术无法解决的问题,这个问题就是我们还没有在社交方面进化到能够承受长时间分离的程度,即社交距离问题。故选 C。
6.The underlined word “This” in Paragraph 4 refers to the fact that .
A.laugh tracks are popular
B.laughing is uncontrollable
C.laughing starts with yawning
D.laughing comes more easily in groups
解析:选D。推理判断题。第四段解释了人们笑是为了和他人一起笑,就像一个人打哈欠周围的人也会跟着打哈欠一样,笑也是一样,接着说这就是为什么电视喜剧节目经常使用预录笑声,“This” 指代的是人们会被笑声感染这一现象,所以D项 “laughing comes more easily in groups(群体中更容易发笑)” 符合题意。故选D。
7.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A.How laughing keeps us physically healthy.
B.What the benefits of laughing are.
C.Whether laughing is a behavioral phenomenon.
D.What chemicals our body produces when we laugh.
解析:选B。段落大意题。第五段主要是在讲述笑的好处,比如身体会产生内啡肽和多巴胺,能缓解疼痛、带来愉悦感、提高学习能力、动力和注意力等。故选 B。
8.What would the author most probably discuss next?
A.Concrete steps to produce laughter in a team.
B.Other factors that may influence a team's health.
C.Ways to tell the real world from the virtual world.
D.The importance of maintaining work productivity.
解析:选A。推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,在如今居家独自工作、虚拟团队的世界里,作为团队领导应该让团队成员多笑、少紧张,前文已经阐述了笑的重要性和原因,接下来最有可能讨论的是在团队中带来笑声的具体步骤。故选A。
