Sometimes, we just need to stop or 41 take a step back, so we can make a big leap forward (巨大的飞跃). Without these ‘brakes’, we might lose our way or face 42 accidents in life. So, we need to understand that the 43 in our lives are not there to stop us. They are there to help us move forward faster and more safely, so we can eventually reach our goals. 29.

A. ①/②③/④⑤ B. ①/②③④/⑤ C. ①②③④/⑤ D. ①/②③④⑤ D Do you often laugh with friends? Do you giggle (咯咯地笑) at jokes? If you do, that is great, because just as the saying goes: Laughter is the best medicine! People start laughing from a young age. At around three months old, babies learn to laugh. Even babies that cannot see or hear can laugh. Laughter is a natural part of life! But why is it so important? First of all, laughter is good for our body. When we laugh, our body takes in more oxygen (氧气). Every part of our body needs oxygen to work well. Laughter also makes our body work out. Our heart, stomach, and even our shoulders work hard when we laugh! But after we laugh, our muscles (肌肉) feel more relaxed. A good laugh can help you feel relaxed for up to 45 minutes. Over time, laughter helps our body to get stronger, fight off more diseases, and even create special chemicals (化学物质) to help us feel less pain! Laughter also has many benefits for our mood. When we laugh, it makes us feel less stressed or anxious, and things will not seem so bad. Laughing also causes our brain to release (释放) chemicals that make us feel calm and happy. Scientists even think that smiling often is enough to increase (增加) these chemicals in our brain. But it is not always easy to laugh on our own. We are 30 times more likely to laugh when we are around others. According to some scientists, laughter can show others that we want to be close to them. Some people even join laughing groups. Although they force themselves to laugh at first, after hearing other people laugh, their laughter becomes real! Before long, the whole group of people is laughing hard. The next time you feel unhappy, try thinking about something funny. Although you might not want to laugh when you are sad, doing so can make you feel better! 68. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By listing numbers. C. By sharing a saying. D. By asking questions. 69. What does the underlined word “diseases” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Muscles. B. Exercises. C. Chemicals. D. Illnesses. 70. What can we infer from the passage? A. Smiling often will make us calm and happy. B. Our muscles become stronger after we laugh. C. Babies can laugh before they are three months old. D. Laughing alone is easier than laughing with others. 71. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Laughter Is the Best Medicine. B. Laughter Is the Key to Good Health. C. Laughter Is the Friend of Happy Mood. D. Laughter Is the Way to Show Kindness. 72. Which Unit of the book will you read this passage? A. Unit 1: Great Peoples. B. Unit 3: Mood and Health. C. Unit 5: Hobbies and Time Management. D. Unit 6: Natural Disasters and Safety Tips.
