UNIT 1 Laugh out loud!
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·青岛模拟)It’s well-known that humor can benefit us both physically and mentally.The idea that laughter is the best medicine has been around since ancient times.In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious, Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the highest of the psyche’s defense mechanism (机制), capable of turning anxiety into pleasure.
There are four humor styles.Affiliative humor refers to jokes about things that might be commonly considered funny, which is usually employed to improve relationships or make others laugh.If you’ve ever shared a funny picture with a co-worker, you’ve used affiliative humor.Self-enhancing humor involves being able to laugh at yourself, often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better as a result.Aggressive humor is laughing at the expense of others, which often involves sarcasm (讽刺), teasing, and criticism.Self-defeating humor is the art of putting yourself down to gain favor from your peers, which is possibly used by someone who’s targeted by bullies.
Each style of humor actually carries a different influence, when it comes to mental health.Julie Aitken Schermer, a psychological researcher at the University of Western Ontario, says people using self-enhancing humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others.By contrast, both aggressive and self-defeating humor styles can hint at trouble.“We find that self-defeating humor is the most concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not mattering.Those with an aggressive humor style may not experience loneliness as much, however, since they rely on group dynamics (群体动力) in order to make fun of their peers,” says Schermer.
Even if you tend to favor more negative humor styles, there’s no reason to lose heart.Schermer says people can develop a positive, self-enhancing humor style by concentrating on the lighter and more humorous aspects of life.As author Kurt Vonnegut once wrote, “Laughter and tears are both responses to worries and anxieties.I prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”
1.Why is Sigmund Freud’s book mentioned in Paragraph 1?( )
A.To show the importance of mental health. B.To stress the role of humor.
C.To persuade people to stay positive. D.To introduce ancient jokes to us.
2.According to the text, which kind of humor may you use to relieve pressure?( )
A.Affiliative humor. B.Self-enhancing humor.
C.Aggressive humor. D.Self-defeating humor.
3.What does the underlined phrase “hint at” in the third paragraph probably mean?( )
A.Signal. B.Explain. C.Prevent. D.Solve.

How to Be Funny?
Humor can help you connect with other people and make unpleasant situations a little more bearable.4.( ) But it’s not that hard once you tap into your inner sense of humor.Even if you don’t think you’re naturally funny, there are things you can do to make yourself and other people laugh.
Learn from funny people.You can expand your reach a good deal by listening to other funny people.Whether they’re professional comedians, your parents, your kids, or your boss, learning from the funny people in your life is a key step towards being a funny person.5.( ) Look for what you admire most in these people.
Broaden your factual knowledge for joke material.6.( ) They may be your amazing knowledge of 17th-century poetry, your familiarity with fishing trips that went wrong, etc.Whatever the material is, it needs to resonate (引起共鸣) with your audience.
7.( ) Being funny doesn’t come in a one-size-fits-all package.What makes you funny is unique to you and the way you observe the world.Trust that you do have a funny bone; as babies, we laugh from four months of age, and all children express humor naturally from the kindergarten age, using humor to entertain themselves and others.It’s already in you.You just need to bring it out!
Read, read, read.Get your hands on everything that is funny, and consume it like your mom told you not to.Chemists become chemists by reading and practicing chemistry.Sports writers become sports writers by reading and writing about sports.8.( )
A.Strike while the iron is hot. B.Trust in your inner sense of humor.
C.Observe the funnier things these people say or do. D.Being funny might seem to take a great deal of work.
E.It’s much easier to find funny moments in familiar material.
F.You’ll become a humorous person by reading and practicing jokes.
G.The better you know someone, the easier it will be to make them laugh.

UNIT 1 Laugh out loud!
Ⅰ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章通过Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious介绍了四种不同的幽默类型。1.B 推理判断题。根据第一段前两句可知,幽默对我们身心有益。笑是最好的良药的说法自古以来就有。接下来提到Sigmund的书。由此可知,第一段提到这本书是为了强调幽默的作用。
2.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Self-enhancing humor ... better as a result.可知,用于缓解压力的是自我提升式幽默。
3.A 词义猜测题。根据第三段第二句可知,使用自我提升式幽默的人不太可能表现出孤独和与他人关系不好的迹象。结合选项可知,相比之下,攻击性和自我挫败的幽默风格都可能暗示出麻烦,故画线词意思是“暗示”,和signal意思相近。
Ⅱ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何变得幽默的几种方法。4.D 上文提到幽默可以帮助你与他人建立联系,下文提到一旦你挖掘了你内心的幽默感,幽默就很容易了。D项(变得有趣似乎需要大量的工作)符合语境,表明幽默有可能是困难的,与下文形成转折。
5.C 上文讲的是向生活中有趣的人学习是成为一个有趣的人的关键一步。C项(观察这些人说或做的有趣的事情)承接上文,C项中的these people指代上文the funny people。
6.E 根据空前一句可知,拓宽你笑话材料的事实知识。E项(在熟悉的素材中找到有趣的时刻要容易得多)符合语境,E项中的moments与空后一句中的They指代一致。
7.B 本段内容讲的是我们本身就是一个幽默的人。B项(相信你内心的幽默感)总结该段内容,适合作本段的主旨句。
8.F 上文举例说明通过实践和练习来达到你的目的,F项(通过阅读和练习笑话,你会成为一个幽默的人)也是说明此观点,符合语境。
Ⅲ.
语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。Abigail是一个失聪的孩子,但她经过训练可以跳出非常美妙的舞蹈,她也因此闻名整个加纳。她的母亲和她在电视节目中声称她们的目标就是想要一个助听器,但她们需要帮助。Joyce被她们的故事感动了,于是,她向这对母女慷慨解囊,她的行为提醒着我们:世间的美好比你意识到的还要多!9.D 根据winning over viewers with her impressive dance moves可知,此处表示Abigail凭借自己的舞蹈在加纳成名。take sth by storm在某处大获成功。
10.B 结合常识可知,成为熟练的舞者对大多数人来说并不是一件容易的事情。fair合理的,恰当的,适当的;surprising令人吃惊的,出人意料的;secret保密的,秘密的。
11.C 根据第二段中的their goal was to get the 7-year-old a hearing aid可知,Abigail是一个失聪的孩子。one-armed单臂的;bow-legged罗圈腿的;blind失明的。
12.D 上文讲到了Abigail是一个失聪的孩子,因此她在练舞的时候是通过训练让自己的舞蹈和感知到的震动相匹配,而不是听歌曲的节拍。resist阻挡,抵制,抵抗;interrupt 打断;adjust调整,调节。
13.A 参见上题解析。thanks to多亏,幸亏;regardless of 不管,不顾;apart from除……之外。
14.A 根据第一段中的her impressive dance moves可知,她精确的计算可以帮助她成功完成令人印象深刻的舞蹈动作。pull off做成(某件难事);停靠路边;slow down放慢;使放慢;look into调查;refer to参考,提及,指的是。
15.D 根据their goal was to get the 7-year-old a hearing aid可知,她的妈妈并没有说什么为了艺术之类“冠冕堂皇”的话。由此可见,她的妈妈很坦率。curious好奇的;hesitant犹豫的,踌躇的,不情愿的;nervous紧张的。
16.C 根据下文come to her assistance可知,她们的目标是买一个助听器,但是这需要人们的帮助。trust信任;courage勇气,勇敢,无畏,胆量。
17.A 上文讲到了失聪的7岁女孩Abigail能够通过训练完成美妙的舞蹈动作,Joyce被她的故事感动了,因此Joyce来给Abigail提供帮助。surprised惊讶的;grateful感激的,表示感谢的;brave勇敢的。
18.B 根据$5,000 for the hearing aid and$400 for insurance可知,Joyce捐款给Abigail,让她买助听器。invest投资,投入(时间、精力等)。

20.B 结合常识和下文happily showed off her new 21 可知,Abigail母女在收到捐款后非常开心。on the go在行动中,很忙;under a cloud受到怀疑;at a loss不知所措。
21.D 根据with the help of which little Abigail answered questions可以推测,Abigail有了助听器,因此此处指的是她向大家炫耀自己的新设备。
22.C 结合上文可知,Abigail通过Joyce捐赠的5,000美元买到了助听器,助听器是有价的,但孩子脸上纯真的笑容是无价的。awkward令人尴尬的,使人难堪的,难对付的;pointless无意义的,无目标的,不值得做的;beneficial有利的,有裨益的,有用的。
23.B 结合全文故事可知,Joyce的无私捐赠提醒着我们:世界上的美好比我们有时意识到的还要多。solution解决办法,处理手段;reminder引起回忆的事物,提醒人的事物;warning警示,提醒,告诫;discovery发现,发觉。

技能·锤炼提升
统筹组合,全面训练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·青岛模拟)It’s well-known that humor can benefit us
both physically and mentally.The idea that laughter is the best medicine
has been around since ancient times.In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their
Relation to the Unconscious, Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the
highest of the psyche’s defense mechanism (机制), capable of
turning anxiety into pleasure.
There are four humor styles.Affiliative humor refers to jokes about
things that might be commonly considered funny, which is usually
employed to improve relationships or make others laugh.If you’ve ever
shared a funny picture with a co-worker, you’ve used affiliative
humor.Self-enhancing humor involves being able to laugh at yourself,
often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better
as a result.Aggressive humor is laughing at the expense of others, which
often involves sarcasm (讽刺), teasing, and criticism.Self-defeating
humor is the art of putting yourself down to gain favor from your peers,
which is possibly used by someone who’s targeted by bullies.
Each style of humor actually carries a different influence, when it
comes to mental health.Julie Aitken Schermer, a psychological
researcher at the University of Western Ontario, says people using self-
enhancing humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor
relationships with others.By contrast, both aggressive and self-defeating
humor styles can hint at trouble.“We find that self-defeating humor is the
most concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not
mattering.Those with an aggressive humor style may not experience
loneliness as much, however, since they rely on group dynamics (群
体动力) in order to make fun of their peers,” says Schermer.
Even if you tend to favor more negative humor styles, there’s no
reason to lose heart.Schermer says people can develop a positive, self-
enhancing humor style by concentrating on the lighter and more humorous
aspects of life.As author Kurt Vonnegut once wrote, “Laughter and
tears are both responses to worries and anxieties.I prefer to laugh, since
there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”

语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章通过Jokes and Their Relation to
the Unconscious介绍了四种不同的幽默类型。
1. Why is Sigmund Freud’s book mentioned in Paragraph 1?( )
A. To show the importance of mental health.
B. To stress the role of humor.
C. To persuade people to stay positive.
D. To introduce ancient jokes to us.
解析: 推理判断题。根据第一段前两句可知,幽默对我们身心有
益。笑是最好的良药的说法自古以来就有。接下来提到Sigmund的
书。由此可知,第一段提到这本书是为了强调幽默的作用。
√
2. According to the text, which kind of humor may you use to relieve
pressure?( )
A. Affiliative humor.
B. Self-enhancing humor.
C. Aggressive humor.
D. Self-defeating humor.
解析: 细节理解题。根据第二段中的Self-enhancing humor ...
better as a result.可知,用于缓解压力的是自我提升式幽默。
√
3. What does the underlined phrase “hint at” in the third paragraph
probably mean?( )
A. Signal. B. Explain.
C. Prevent. D. Solve.
解析: 词义猜测题。根据第三段第二句可知,使用自我提升式幽
默的人不太可能表现出孤独和与他人关系不好的迹象。结合选项可
知,相比之下,攻击性和自我挫败的幽默风格都可能暗示出麻烦,故
画线词意思是“暗示”,和signal意思相近。

How to Be Funny?
Humor can help you connect with other people and make unpleasant
situations a little more bearable.4.( ) But it’s not that hard once
you tap into your inner sense of humor.Even if you don’t think you’re
naturally funny, there are things you can do to make yourself and other
people laugh.
Learn from funny people.You can expand your reach a good deal by
listening to other funny people.Whether they’re professional
comedians, your parents, your kids, or your boss, learning from the
funny people in your life is a key step towards being a funny person.5.
( ) Look for what you admire most in these people.
Broaden your factual knowledge for joke material.6.( ) They
may be your amazing knowledge of 17th-century poetry, your familiarity
with fishing trips that went wrong, etc.Whatever the material is, it
needs to resonate (引起共鸣) with your audience.
7. ( ) Being funny doesn’t come in a one-size-fits-all
package.What makes you funny is unique to you and the way you observe
the world.Trust that you do have a funny bone; as babies, we laugh
from four months of age, and all children express humor naturally from
the kindergarten age, using humor to entertain themselves and
others.It’s already in you.You just need to bring it out!
Read, read, read.Get your hands on everything that is funny,
and consume it like your mom told you not to.Chemists become chemists
by reading and practicing chemistry.Sports writers become sports writers
by reading and writing about sports.8.( )
A. Strike while the iron is hot.
B. Trust in your inner sense of humor.
C. Observe the funnier things these people say or do.
D. Being funny might seem to take a great deal of work.
E. It’s much easier to find funny moments in familiar material.
F. You’ll become a humorous person by reading and practicing jokes.
G. The better you know someone, the easier it will be to make them
laugh.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何变得幽默的几
