Although this day sounds a bit silly, there is a serious reason behind it. This day happens on the first Sunday of May every year. It was started by Dr. Madan Kataria, a doctor from India, in 1998. Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. Dr. Kataria encouraged people to join laughter groups where they could meet up and laugh in public. More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world. Nobody knows for sure why people laugh, but all human cultures have laughter. Even babies laugh before they can talk! Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. “Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,” he said. On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together. They do Laughter Yoga, a kind of exercise that mixes laughing and deep breathing. There may also be music and dancing. They even have competitions (比赛) to see who has the best laugh. If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family? Or, you could watch a funny movie to join in the fun. Remember, the spirit of World Laughter Day is all about bringing joy and laughter into every day of the year. 21．What’s the goal of World Laughter Day? A．To find out who has the best laugh in the world. B．To remember the man who loved laughing most in India. C．To achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. 22．What does the underlined part “caught on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Made changes. B．Become popular. C．Caused problems. 23．Which of the following will Dr. Kataria most probably agree with? A．Fake laughing can cause real happiness. B．Scientists have found out why people laugh.

C．To collect ideas for celebrating World Laughter Day. 【答案】21．C 22．B 23．A 24．B 25．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了世界欢笑日的由来，以及人们如何庆祝世界欢笑日。 21．细节理解题。根据“Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter.”可知，世界欢笑日的目的是为了通过欢笑来实现健康、幸福和世界和平。故选C。 22．词句猜测题。根据“More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world.”可知，超过12000人参加了第一次活动，从那以后，它在世界各地流行起来。所以这里“caught on”意为“流行起来”。故选B。 23．推理判断题。根据“Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. ‘Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,’ he said.”可知，Kataria博士认为我们的身体不知道表现得快乐和真正快乐之间的区别，所以我们可以假装笑，直到笑声自然出现。因此，选项A“假笑能带来真正的快乐。”符合题意。故选A。 24．主旨大意题。根据“On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together.”和“If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family?”可知，最后两段主要讲了如何庆祝世界欢笑日。故选B。 25．推理判断题。根据“World Laughter Day is a special day when people all over the world come together to laugh.

As we celebrate the Chinese New Year 60 , remember that the true value of red envelopes is not in the money but in the act of giving. 【答案】 51．important 52．like 53．which 54．but 55．children 56．put 57．visit 58．them 59．spread 60．happily 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了中国、日本、韩国和马来西亚在春节期间或类似节日里给红包或幸运钱的习俗，并强调了这些传统背后的美好祝愿。 51．句意：这是中国最重要的新年传统之一。根据“This is one of the most...New Year’s traditions”可知设空处修饰名词traditions，需用形容词。备选词汇“important”符合语境，意为“重要的”。故填important。 52．句意：事实上，在一些其他亚洲国家，比如日本、韩国和马来西亚，也有类似的传统。根据“in some other Asian countries...Japan South Korea, and Malaysia.”可知空格后列举了三个国家名称，表示举例，需用介词like，意为“像……一样，比如”。故填like。 53．句意：在新年期间，日本的孩子通常会收到otoshidama，这在日语中意为压岁钱。根据“otshidama...means lucky money in Japanese”可知此处是定语从句，先行词是“otoshidama”，在从句中作主语，指物，关系词在从句中作主语，用which。故填which。 54．句意：与中国传统相似，日本人把钱放在信封里，但这些信封是多种颜色的，而不仅仅是红色的。根据“Similar to the Chinese tradition, Japanese place the money in envelopes...these envelopes are in many colors rather than just red.”可知前半句说日本人也用信封，后半句说信封颜色多样（不仅仅是红色），前后为转折关系。but表示转折，符合逻辑。故填but。 55．句意：在韩国，父母和祖父母给孩子们压岁钱。 分析句子结构，give后接宾语，表示给予的对象。根据“In South Korea, parents and grandparents give...lucky money.”以及上下文可知给予的对象是“孩子”，且用复数泛指。child的复数形式为children。故填children。 56．句意：相反，钱被放在幸运袋里。根据“However, they don’t use envelopes. Instead, the money is...in lucky bags”可知此处为被动语态，指把钱放在幸运袋里，is后接过去分词构成被动语态。put的过去分词与原形相同，意为“放置”。故填put。 57．句意：当客人来拜访他们时，人们通常会给客人装在绿色信封里的钱。根据“when they come to...them during the holiday.”可知to为不定式符号，指来拜访他们，后接动词原形。visit意为“拜访”，符合句意。故填visit。58．句意：他们也会给长辈钱，祝愿他们身体健康、长寿。根据“wish...good health and long life”可知wish后接双宾语，空格处为间接宾语，指代前面的“the elders”。需用人称代词they的宾格them。故填them。 59．句意：无论是通过不同颜色的信封还是幸运袋，这些传统都表达了人们向所爱之人传播快乐和好运的愿望。根据“show people’s wishes to...joy and good luck”和备选词可知传播快乐和好运，to为不定式符号，后接动词原形。spread意为“传播”，符合句意。故填spread。 60．句意：当我们快乐地庆祝中国新年时，请记住红包的真正价值不在于钱，而在于给予的行为。根据“celebrate the Chinese New Year...”可知空格处修饰动词celebrate，指快乐地庆祝。需用副词。happy的副词形式为happily，意为“快乐地”。故填happily。 七、任务型阅读(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) 阅读下面的短文，并根据文章后的要求答题。 “May we all be blessed with longevity. Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together (但愿人长久，千里共婵娟)”, written by Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe. The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar. On this day, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country. In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops (庄稼) were harvested during that period. (4) It was a time for relaxation and celebration. Families try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China.

Although this day sounds a bit silly, there is a serious reason behind it. This day happens on the first Sunday of May every year. It was started by Dr. Madan Kataria, a doctor from India, in 1998. Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. Dr. Kataria encouraged people to join laughter groups where they could meet up and laugh in public. More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world. Nobody knows for sure why people laugh, but all human cultures have laughter. Even babies laugh before they can talk! Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. “Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,” he said. On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together. They do Laughter Yoga, a kind of exercise that mixes laughing and deep breathing. There may also be music and dancing. They even have competitions (比赛) to see who has the best laugh. If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family? Or, you could watch a funny movie to join in the fun. Remember, the spirit of World Laughter Day is all about bringing joy and laughter into every day of the year. 21．What’s the goal of World Laughter Day? A．To find out who has the best laugh in the world. B．To remember the man who loved laughing most in India. C．To achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. 22．What does the underlined part “caught on” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Made changes. B．Become popular. C．Caused problems. 23．Which of the following will Dr. Kataria most probably agree with? A．Fake laughing can cause real happiness. B．Scientists have found out why people laugh. C．Our body knows clearly when we are acting happy. 24．What are the last two paragraphs mainly about? A．The history of World Laughter Day. B．How to celebrate World Laughter Day. C．When to celebrate World Laughter Day. 25．Why did the writer write the passage? A．To encourage people to always stay happy. B．To introduce a new holiday about happiness.

Although this day sounds a bit silly, there is a serious reason behind it. This day happens on the first Sunday of May every year. It was started by Dr. Madan Kataria, a doctor from India, in 1998. Its goal is to achieve health, happiness and world peace through laughter. Dr. Kataria encouraged people to join laughter groups where they could meet up and laugh in public. More than 12,000 people came to the first event, and since then it has caught on around the world. Nobody knows for sure why people laugh, but all human cultures have laughter. Even babies laugh before they can talk! Dr. Kataria found that when people fake (假装) laughing, it often causes real laughter. “Our body doesn’t know the difference between acting happy and being really happy, so we can fake laughing until the laughter comes naturally,” he said. On World Laughter Day, lots of people meet up in parks or squares to laugh together. They do Laughter Yoga, a kind of exercise that mixes laughing and deep breathing. There may also be music and dancing. They even have competitions (比赛) to see who has the best laugh. If you can’t find a Laughter Day event near you, why not set up your own with friends and family?
