[教材原句P4] Seeing their daughter so much happier has in turn made Lara’s parents more relaxed.
看到女儿破涕为笑,劳拉的父母也松了一口气。
[结构分析] 这两句中的Being a clown doctor和Seeing their daughter so much happier为动名词短语在句子中作主语。第一个句子是复合句,I can...them是省略了that的宾语从句;第二个句子为简单句,句中的in turn意为“转而”,made Lara’s parents more relaxed是“make+宾语+宾补”结构。
·动名词(短语)作主语往往表示经常性、习惯性的动作。
·当动名词(短语)作主语时,其逻辑主语通常用形容词性物主代词或名
词所有格表示。
·单个的动名词(短语)作主语时,谓语动词常常使用第三人称单数形式。
·动名词短语作主语可以用it作形式主语,常见句型有:
It is no use/no good/no fun/a waste of time doing sth.做某事没有用/没
有好处/没有乐趣/浪费时间。
It is useless/worthwhile doing sth.做某事是没有用的/是值得的。

[教材原句P4] We have to be very sensitive and work closely with the doctors and nurses,who keep us updated on each patient.
我们必须非常善解人意,并且与医护人员密切合作,他们会为我们提供每个病人的最新情况。
[结构分析] 本句中的keep us updated是“keep+宾语+宾补”结构;update与宾语us之间是逻辑上的被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾语补足语。
“keep+宾语+宾补”结构常见的形式有:
·keep+宾语+形容词/副词/介词短语/名词
·keep+宾语+现在分词(表示主动或状态的持续)/过去分词(表示被动)

(2025·吉林延边高二上期中)
I was 6 years old when my father told me we were leaving the Big Apple Circus.Until that point,I had spent most of my life on the circus lot,playing with the other circus kids.The circus,by its nature,is one that has a loose structure.So the early years after my leaving the circus to sit in a classroom all day felt more like a prison.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者离开马戏团后的人生经历和感悟。
Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读
But years later,I found areas that interested me.I took the skills I had learned from being onstage and applied them to broadcasting.And so when Boston’s news station WBUR offered me a job out of college,I jumped at the chance.Along the way,I found I really enjoyed the work.I became WBUR’s news reporter.The flexibility and adaptability I’d learned in the circus as a child helped me do my job naturally and easily in a stressful situation—whether it was a destructive tornado outside Boston,or the Boston Marathon bombings of 2013.
But then a serious infectious disease appeared.Suddenly,for the first time in my adult life,I went for a year without doing any shows.But it became clear to me that performing was what I truly wanted.For me,the circus symbolizes who I am.And stages have always been where I’ve felt the most free.Some people get nervous before they go onstage,but by assuming(扮演) the character of Jacques Ze Whipper and drawing a stupid moustache on my face,all my social anxiety disappears.
Circus performances go beyond age,socioeconomic status(地位),and even language.It’s the type of performance where you can go anywhere in the world to entertain anyone—help anyone forget their troubles for 5,10,and even 30 minutes.And most importantly,for me,it means coming home.
1.How did the author feel in the early years of school?
A.Curious. B.Unfree.
C.Loose. D.Impatient.
√

B.A chance to go anywhere.
C.A part of his identity.
D.A way to forget his troubles.
√

B(此篇精读)
You’ve probably heard the phrase,“Laughter is the best medicine.” Comedy on Referral has taken that idea and run with it,using stand-up comedy to help treat people struggling with trauma(精神创伤) and anxiety in partnership with the National Health Service (NHS).
语篇解读 这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了转介喜剧采用“笑是最好的药”这一理念,与英国国民医疗服务体系合作,利用单口喜剧来帮助治疗那些与精神创伤和焦虑作斗争的人。
The idea came from comedian Angie Belcher’s experiences teaching comedy at the University of Bristol.She found that students often told her how much stronger and more resilient(有适应力的) they were thanks to stand-up comedy.
Inspired,she teamed up with the NHS in Bristol to create a six-week comedy course for patients struggling with trauma in January 2022.Following the success of this initial course,Comedy on Referral won NHS funding to help men with trauma in London.
Belcher said,“Past traumas are perfect for comedy.Comedy doesn’t come from the happy,perfect moments of your life,but from our everyday struggles and major life events.People who’ve been through big life experiences such as losing a loved one and ill health often can’t wait to tell me their stories,mostly because there’s always something especially funny about the situation.”
Research has shown that laughter has positive psychological effects,such as decreasing levels of cortisol (the stress hormone) and increasing endorphins (the hormone that reduces the feeling of pain).It can even have physiological benefits,although less research has been done in this area.Current research has linked laughter and humour with increased levels of pain tolerance as well as short-term cardiovascular(心血管的) benefits.More research is needed to prove these findings.
Nonetheless,the mental health benefits of regular laughter are widely accepted,and using comedy to treat mental health struggles could be a real breakthrough in the treatment of mental health.
5.Why is the phrase mentioned in paragraph 1?
A.To explain the harm trauma causes.
B.To stress the importance of laughter.
C.To show the effect of stand-up comedy.
D.To state the idea behind Comedy on Referral.
√
推理判断题。根据第一段“You’ve probably heard the phrase,‘Laughter is the best medicine.’ Comedy on Referral has taken that idea and run with it...”可知,转介喜剧采纳了“笑是最好的药”这一理念,利用单口喜剧来帮助人们,由此可推知,作者在第一段提及此谚语是为了介绍转介喜剧背后的理念。故选D。
解析
6.How was the first six-week comedy course for patients?
A.Effective. B.Ambiguous.
