Why do we need humour
Good morning，everyone．The title of my speech today is “Why do we need humour？”
I guess all of us enjoy watching a comedy film or hearing a good joke．Humour is what plays the magic．According to recent research，humour has both physical and psychological effects．It helps us relieve our stress and anxiety，relax our whole body and give us a great sense of well-being．Also，it helps us to develop better and stronger relationships．Personally，I've become happier and got closer to my friends since I tried to add a little humour when talking with people around．And I've become more optimistic to face the challenges in life．
I hope you'll all benefit from humour in your lives too．Thank you!
[片段1]
It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realised getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in．When I pulled hard, my nose got in the way．I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle, but it was no use．“I can't get it out！” I shouted, my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed space．
只有当我试着把头移开时，我才意识到，出去没有进去那么简单。当我使劲拉的时候，我的鼻子挡住了路。我陷入了恐慌，我紧紧地贴在桌子上，扭动着我的头，试图找到合适的角度，但无济于事。“我拔不出来！”我喊道，我的声音在这个封闭的空间里显得很不自然地响亮。
[片段2]
When I opened the envelope, inside I found some money and a note．Hardly had I caught the first sight of the money when I realised my professors' kindness．Excited yet astonished, I felt gratitude almost deprived me of all power of speech．Then, with trembling hands picking up that note, I went through the content, “Life is not just living through the storms, but dancing in the rain．Never lose heart．” With the wind dying down and the sunshine taking on some golden color, warmth flooded over me．
当我打开信封时，我发现里面有一些钱和一张纸条。我刚看到钱的第一眼，就意识到教授们的好意。我既兴奋又惊讶，感激之情几乎使我说不出话来。然后，我用颤抖的双手捡起那张纸条，读了一遍上面的内容：“生活不仅仅是在暴风雨中生存，而是在雨中跳舞。永远不要灰心。”风势渐弱，阳光泛着金色，暖意涌上心头。

San Francisco chef Cecilia Chiang, who was a pioneer of Chinese cuisine in the United States, died on Wednesday．She was 100．Chiang was the owner, chef and mastermind behind the game-changing San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin．She is widely credited with bringing real Chinese food to America and was a celebrity chef before celebrity chefs were popularized．
Chiang, who was born near Shanghai, came from an upper-class Chinese family．Although she wasn't shy about acknowledging her good fortune, she faced other difficulties．Convincing the dining public that Chinese food didn't have to be Thursday's cheap take-out option, Chiang had her work cut out for her．
“Most Americans, including American-born Chinese, didn't know about Chinese food，” Chiang explained in an interview with CNN Travel in 2018．Never having been to China, they needed to be educated on the difference．The year was 1961, and Chiang insisted on showing diners the delicate side of Chinese food．The restaurant's wine list, filled with Chinese cultural elements, was part of her strategy．Chiang said she wanted to upgrade the Chinese dining experience．To do this, she also needed to be fully aware of aesthetics (美学)．
The Mandarin, which would later occupy a much larger space in Ghirardelli Square, wasn't like other Chinese restaurants．“Is this a Chinese restaurant？” Chiang said people asked her all the time．The Mandarin did not serve chop suey or chow mein, two standard dishes on every Chinese restaurant in the US at the time．But this is exactly what Chiang wanted to avoid．In fact, her early brushes with Chinese food in America had left her unimpressed and determined to show San Francisco what Chinese food was really like．
Not only was Chiang a woman trying to run a restaurant in a male-controlled industry, but she was also attempting to educate diners．Changing people's minds was complicated．And, Chiang, who had been retired some 20 years when she died, at one point remarked that not a single existing restaurant could compare to the Mandarin．

Every spring，as the weather warms，trees up and down the East Coast explode in a display of bright green life as leaves fill their branches，and every fall，the same leaves provide one of nature's great color displays of vivid yellow，orange and red．
Thanks to climate change，the timing of these events has shifted over the last two decades，Harvard scientists say．
Andrew Richardson，an associate professor of organismic and evolutionary biology，and research associate Trevor Keenan worked with colleagues from seven different institutions on a study which found that forests throughout the eastern United States are showing signs of spring growth dramatically earlier，and that the growing season in some areas extends further into the fall．
Richardson said，“Climate change isn't just about warmer temperatures．It's also about changes in precipitation (降水) patterns．．．So in the future，an earlier spring might not help forests take in more carbon dioxide if they end up running out of water in mid-summer．”
The research combined information from three sources．Using satellite data，Keenan tracked when forests across the region began to turn green in the spring，and when leaves began to turn yellow in the fall．Ground observations made every three to seven days at the Harvard Forest in Petersham and a long-term research site in New Hampshire provided information about the state of buds，leaves and branches．When combined with records from instrument towers，the data sets allowed the researchers to paint a richly detailed picture that shows spring starting earlier，and the growing season lasting longer than at any point in the past two decades．
Another important result，Richardson said，was the discovery of a significant source of error in existing computer models on how forest ecosystems work．
“This shows an opportunity to improve the models and how they simulate how forests will work under future climate scenarios forecast．” he said．
The real power of the findings，however，may be in helping to make the effects of climate change clearer to the public，the researchers said．

A．An earlier spring can only bring benefits．
B．The influence of climate change is complex．
C．The water in mid-summer will increase．
D．The role of forests becomes less important．

We have all experienced how easy it is for a smile to light up our day, improve our emotions and make it easier for us to recover from illnesses．But do you also know that smiling improves your chances of success in many aspects of your life
Studies have shown that people are more likely to think that a smiling person is more confident than others．Smiling will inspire your boss to trust you on a particular project．Standing in front of a group of people, a confident smile on your face indicates knowledge, competence, trustworthiness, and ability to carry out tasks efficiently．It also opens up the way to higher job earning opportunities．
If you meet a person for the first time and walk into the restaurant, the person is seated by the table, looking sad on the face．What would be your first thought Either the person regrets the meeting or the person is troubled by other issues．The chances are more likely you wouldn't want to see the person anymore．Smiling makes a great first impression on anyone．Studies have shown that people are more likely to remember a person who has a friendly and sweet smile．This is because no one wants to have to deal with a person who is always worried．It is also a great way to ensure that you get callbacks from job interviews and other potential meetups．
When you smile, neurotransmitters(神经递质), materials that are anti-stress, are released from your brain．They spread throughout the body, causing a happy feeling to take over the negative emotions．Being positive gives you enough enthusiasm to go ahead and make more use of your day and be productive．In recent researches, it has been found that people who were unhappy with their work-life were less productive than others who loved their jobs．An individual who is not happy at what they do is unwilling to put in the efforts needed to go beyond the average．While the other who is positive is more likely to carry on more tasks and is more productive, gains more experience, and gets promoted more easily．
But when you are in an environment that is sad or pessimistic, it isn't easy to remain happy and optimistic．If you are caught up in a situation where something had gone wrong, and you are having a heavy heart, try looking for reasons to be happy, smile, and watch your day begin to change positively．
Do not forget that when you smile, you are not only making your day better but someone else's too．A smile is what it takes to make all the difference．

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The English language has many ways to talk about something that is funny． 16 It is a basic human need．Physical humour, especially, can cross limits like nationality and language and bring people together from all different walks of life．
Humour comes in many forms．The most obvious and traditional way we use humour is in jokes． 17 This is when a person changes a word or uses it in a different context (语境) for comic effect．
Another way people can use humour is through telling a funny story．Perhaps something bad happened to the person but they can laugh about it now．People also invent funny stories in order to make people laugh．The advantage of this is that the characters aren't real． 18
Physical comedy usually divides opinions．For some, seeing someone fall down, whether it is planned or not, is one of the funniest things they can see． 19 Some types of humour can also be harmful if someone is not in the mood for being made fun of！People's senses of humour vary across the world, so what may be funny in your country might be incredibly harmful in another!
20 The British, for instance, are famous for their humour in English．However, people learning a foreign language face much difficulty when it comes to being funny in a second language．
A．Humour is just one of the ways．
B．Everyone needs to laugh once in a while．
C．Other forms of humour are wordplay and puns (双关语)．
D．Therefore, you don't have to feel bad for laughing at them!
E．People of all ages and cultures have a strong sense of humour．
F．Most people know how to use some form of humour in their native languages．
G．For others, finding physical humour and non-serious accidents funny seems cruel．

18．D [根据该空前的“Perhaps something．．．about it now．”以及“The advantage of this．．．real．”可知，故事里的形象大多是虚构的，所以那些情节也是虚构的，人们对此大笑时也就可以不用感觉不好了。D项中的therefore是关键词。故选D。]
19．G [根据本段第一句“Physical comedy．．．opinions．”可知，人们通常对肢体喜剧有不同的观点，前面提到了一部分人的看法，该空指另一部分人的看法。G项中的For others与空前的For some相呼应。故选G。]
20．F [该段提到不同语言背景下的人对幽默的体验有差别，故首句与幽默和语言文化有关，故选F。]

Charlie Chaplin was really a master of non-verbal humour, who made people happy．However, his life was anything but easy．He was born in a poor family in 1889．His parents were both poor 36． (performer), and 37． was astonishing that Charlie was taught to sing as soon as he could speak and dance as soon as he could walk． 38． (fortunate) his father died, 39． (leave) the family even worse off．By his teens, Charlie had become one of the most popular child actors in England．

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了著名喜剧大师卓别林的生平及贡献。
36．performers [考查名词复数。根据“both”可知，此处用名词复数 performers，表示“表演者”。]
37．it [考查代词。It was astonishing that ．．．表示“……使人大为惊奇”，其中 it 是形式主语，that引导主语从句。]
38．Unfortunately [考查词性转换。空处修饰后面整个句子，应用副词，且“his father died”是不好的事情，因此用 unfortunately，表示“不幸地”。]
39．leaving [考查非谓语动词。本句已有谓语动词 died，且空处前面没有连词，所以空处需用非谓语动词作结果状语，动词 leave 与主语之间是逻辑上的主动关系，所以空处需用动词-ing形式leaving。]
40．charming [考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词 character，charm 的形容词为 charming“吸引人的”。]
41．when [考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知，空处需用关系词引导定语从句，先行词是time，指时间，关系词在定语从句中作时间状语，所以空处需用关系副词 when 引导定语从句。]
42．produced [考查动词的时态。根据空前“wrote，directed and”可知，此处并列连词 and 连接了三个并列的谓语，形式需一致，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时。故填produced。]
43．in [考查介词。star in ．．．“主演，担任主角”，固定短语。故填in。]
44．was awarded [考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据时间状语“in 1972”可知，空处谓语动词需用一般过去时；因为是被授予奖项，所以空处谓语动词需用一般过去时的被动语态；又因为主语为第三人称单数，故填was awarded。]
45．greatest [考查最高级。由本句中表示范围的“in the history of the cinema”可知，此处应用形容词最高级。one of＋the＋形容词最高级＋可数名词复数，表示“最……之一”，固定搭配。故填greatest。]

Dear Jim，
It's great to hear from you．I feel proud to know you're interested in Chinese history．As for my favourite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty．He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi (Maps and Records of the World), introduced modern technologies and ideas in the world to China, which opened our eyes to the world．In fact, it is he who inspires me to major in English in college and to be a bridge between China and the world．
Interested in knowing more？I can find you some books！Just let me know．
Yours，
Li Hua
第二节
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a cold winter．After work，I returned home．I started to take my coat off，when my son Justin ran through the door of his room．He shouted，“Dad！Dad！I'm going to play baseball tonight．”
“Where at？”
“I don't know！It's downtown somewhere．Dad，it's just downtown．We'll find it．”I pulled my jacket back on．He took the baseball glove．It fit his left hand；he was left handed—not a good match．“So where are we going？”I asked．
“I don't know，Dad．” He ran to the door．“It's downtown．” Saint John was not a big city．There were only a few blocks in either direction．“I think it's in the south end，Dad．” My son stared at me and held his glove．“We'll find it．”
We crossed the city center and entered the south end．We saw a few kids with gloves on their hands．“I guess we're heading in the right direction，son．Those kids look like they are ready for a baseball game．”
Justin's eyes were sparkled with excitement，“See？I told you，Dad．”“I always believe in you，Justin，” I replied with a big smile．We found the field．The wind froze the parents through to the bone，but the kids failed to notice it．Their minds were on baseball．
It was a rag-tag group of boys and girls，just enough to form three teams．It was a poor league and there were no uniforms．They were lucky to have shirts that matched．They played in T-shirts and jeans．The young kids had no idea where the ball was to be thrown．I would have laughed，but my son was one of the ones throwing the ball to the wrong base．The three teams battled with each other，won and lost．The coaches，who were actually just elder kids，were patient．It was a game and they treated it that way．At the same time，they taught and encouraged the younger players．
注意：1．续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
I heard that they would take part in the city baseball competition the next summer．
Nine months later，they attended the second city baseball competition．
[参考范文]
I heard that they would take part in the city baseball competition the next summer． I was surprised．With only a few months left，how could they make it？The kids even were throwing the baseball to the wrong base．But they were determined to do so．From that day on，the kids got together every weekend to practice baseball．And the young coaches taught them patiently．Six months later，the kids finished the competition and got last place．My son was upset．That night，I had to hold and comfort him，telling him that it would be better the next time．
Nine months later，they attended the second city baseball competition． Most of the kids were back．The same coaches encouraged them．The kids were familiar with each other．They knew each other's strengths and weaknesses and tried to help each other．My son was there．He did a good job．The team went to the finals and won second place this time．The young players，the coaches and all the parents there cried with joy．

Why do we need humour
Good morning，everyone．The title of my speech today is “Why do we need humour？”
I guess all of us enjoy watching a comedy film or hearing a good joke．Humour is what plays the magic．According to recent research，humour has both physical and psychological effects．It helps us relieve our stress and anxiety，relax our whole body and give us a great sense of
well-being．Also，it helps us to develop better and stronger relationships．Personally，I've become happier and got closer to my friends since I tried to add a little humour when talking with people around．And I've become more optimistic to face the challenges in life．
I hope you'll all benefit from humour in your lives too．Thank you!
[片段1]
It was only when I tried to remove my head that I realised getting out was going to be less straightforward than getting in．When I pulled hard, my nose got in the way．I got into a panic as I pressed firmly against the table and moved my head around trying to find the right angle, but it was no use．“I can't get it out！” I shouted, my voice sounding unnaturally loud in the enclosed space．
只有当我试着把头移开时，我才意识到，出去没有进去那么简单。当我使劲拉的时候，我的鼻子挡住了路。我陷入了恐慌，我紧紧地贴在桌子上，扭动着我的头，试图找到合适的角度，但无济于事。“我拔不出来！”我喊道，我的声音在这个封闭的空间里显得很不自然地响亮。
[片段2]
When I opened the envelope, inside I found some money and a note．Hardly had I caught the first sight of the money when I realised my professors' kindness．Excited yet astonished, I felt gratitude almost deprived me of all power of speech．Then, with trembling hands picking up that note, I went through the content, “Life is not just living through the storms, but dancing in the rain．Never lose heart．” With the wind dying down and the sunshine taking on some golden color, warmth flooded over me．
当我打开信封时，我发现里面有一些钱和一张纸条。我刚看到钱的第一眼，就意识到教授们的好意。我既兴奋又惊讶，感激之情几乎使我说不出话来。然后，我用颤抖的双手捡起那张纸条，读了一遍上面的内容：“生活不仅仅是在暴风雨中生存，而是在雨中跳舞。永远不要灰心。”风势渐弱，阳光泛着金色，暖意涌上心头。
