First,there are good reasons to keep stress levels low in the language classroom.People usually learn a language and use it much more easily when they are relaxed-and what reduces stress more greatly than laughter?And in a class,sharing a joke can help students and teachers build a friendly atmosphere (that encourages confidence. Also,A student named Leo shared:"I used to get totally confused by English grammar,but then my teacher showed us a funny meme ()Laughing at that meme made the grammar rule clear to me immediately."Research has found that humour helps our brains feel good,making us want to learn and remember better. Humour can be a test of your language skills,too.Understanding jokes requires not just some basic knowledge of words and sentences-you need to know why they're funny!For example, "Why was six afraid of seven?Because seven ate (eight)nine!"A lot of jokes are based on wordplay(双关语)，so the listener may need to know more than one meaning of a word to understand the jokes. It's no surprise that both students and teachers expect some humour in language lessons.But what kinds of jokes are the most popular?One study asked nearly 250 foreign language learners what they thought.The researchers found that students really liked it when teachers made funny comments during lessons.Students also liked funny cartoons and memes. 11.Which graph shows the link between humour and stress? stress stress stress stress humou humour humour humou 八年级英语试卷 第2页 共8页 12.What did Leo's experience show about English learning?

B A night from my childhood remains clear in my memory:I was standing by a pool before a village in Henan.Next to me stood many other people,both adults and children.Together,we looked at the clear night sky,where a tiny star slowly sailed across the dark sky. It was China'sfirst artificial satellite(人造卫星)：DongfanghongI.The date was April25, 1970,and I was seven.Just a week earlier,Apollo 13 safely returned from a journey to the Moon. It had been nine years since the first astronaut left the Earth.But I didn't know any of that.As I looked at that tiny star,my heart was full of curiosity. The adults said that the satellite wasn't like an airplane because it flew outside of the Earth. Back then the dust and smoke didn't pollute the air,and the velvet sky was especially clear,with the Milky Way (clearly seen.In my mind,the stars that filled the sky weren't much farther away than the tiny satellite,so I thought it was flying among them.Ieven worried that it might run into one as it passed through them. A few years passed before I understood how far it is from that satellite to the stars.Back then I was reading a popular set of basic science books called A Hundred Thousand Whys.I learned the idea of a light-year ()I tried to picture the endless and icy darkness of space-so huge and deep that my mind couldn't follow.A wave of fear and wonder flooded me,yet left behind a strange and electrio jov.Even today,the idea of a light-year can still paint lively pietures in my mind and excite a deep sense of wonder and shoek. Satellite,stars,the Milky Way,a light-year......These seemingly (unconnected things formed the early part of my life,and also influenced the science fiction I write today. -Liu Cixin 16.How does the writer start the passage in Paragraph 1?
