Humor is a most effective, yet frequently neglected, means of handling the difficult situations in our lives. It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying“no”， criticizing, and getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it is the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that a serious dialogue may start a riot. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.
Humor is often the best way to keep a small misunderstanding from escalating (升级) into a big deal. Recently a neighbor of mine had a quarrel with his wife as she drove him to the airport. Airborne, he felt miserable, and he knew she did, too. Two hours after she returned home, she received a long-distance phone call. “Person-to-person for Mrs. Ⅰ. A. Pologize.” intoned the operator. “That's spelled ‘P’ as in...” In a twinkling (眨眼间), the whole day changed from bad to lovely at both ends of the wire.
An English hostess with a quick wit was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests whom she hoped to enlist (赞助) in a major charity drive. Austerity was a fashion in England at the time, and she had asked her children to serve the meal. She knew that anything could happen... and it did, just as her son, with the studied concentration of a tight rope walker, brought in a large roast turkey; he successfully elbowed the swinging dining-room door, but the backswing threw the bird onto the dining-room floor.
The boy stood rooted, the guests staring at their plates, Moving only her head the hostess looked at her son，“No harm Daniel”， she said, “just pick him up and take him back to the kitchen”．.. she enunciated (发音) clearly so he would think about what she was saying... “and bring in the other one. ”
A wink and a one-liner instantly changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a laughter.

Afel was small when he first saw snow. But it wasn't real snow. There was no real snow where he lived. He saw it in a picture book. He asked his mother, “What are those white fields？”She tried to explain, but it was very difficult for him to understand what this cold, ice rain was. It didn't matter. He was already in love with snow.
He dreamed about snow all the time. He thought of big white fields. He thought about feeling cold.
When Afel was watching the TV at his uncle's at 12, the programme was full of snow, lots and lots of it, And there were creatures flying across the snow like strange animals or fantastic birds. They had hats which covered all their heads, big goggles over their eyes like swimmers, and strange shoes.
He knew from his uncle they were skiers skiing in the Winter Olympics, and that the next was in Vancouver, in 2010.
“Perfect，” he thought, “enough time to become a brilliant skier.”
“But there's no snow here！” people told him.
Afel didn't care. He made a pair of skis from two pieces of wood. At first he couldn't move, but he practised and practised until he could move quickly across the sand or the earth. He tried to fly down the hills like the people on TV, but he couldn't.
“Never mind，” he thought, “It's a start...”
“How will you go to the Olympics？”people asked him, “Our country doesn't even have a team.”
Afel didn't care. He found that Jamaica had sent a bobsleigh(雪橇) team to the Olympics a few years ago. Then he thought his country could have a skier.
So every night, out in the middle of the desert, Afel now practises skiing down sand dunes. He dreams that the yellow sand is the white snow. He dreams that he will bring the gold medal home with him, when he is the world champion.
5．Why was Afel unable to understand what his mother said？(　　)
A．Because his mother explained poorly.
B．Because he never experienced snow.
C．Because he saw snow in a book.
D．Because he scarcely felt cold.
6．What did Afel see on the TV programme？(　　)
A．Skiers. B．Animals.
C．Birds. D．Swimmers.
7．Which word can best describe Afel？(　　)
A．Kind-hearted. B．Easy-going.
C．Stubborn. D．Determined.
8．What's the best title for the text？(　　)
A．Practice Making One's Dream Come True
B．A Mother with a Strong-willed Kid
C．A Dream to Be a Skier
D．A Beautiful White Field
