能力提升
Ⅰ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一本书——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。根据第一段可知，第一段提到这本书是为了强调幽默的作用。故选B。]
2．B [细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Self-enhancing humour 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．”可知，自我提升式幽默可用于缓解压力。故选B。]
3．A [词义猜测题。根据画线部分上文“Julie Aitken Schermer，a psychological researcher at The University of Western Ontario，says people using self-enhancing humour are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others．By contrast，both aggressive and self-defeating humour styles...”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。相比之下，攻击性的和自我挫败式的幽默风格都可能暗示出麻烦，故画线部分意思是“暗示”。故选A。]
4．D [推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Laughter and tears are both responses to worries and anxieties．I prefer to laugh，since there is less cleaning up to do afterward．”可知，Kurt Vonnegut更喜欢笑，由此可推知，他可能同意“笑是治疗压力的最好方法。”这一观点。故选D。]
Ⅱ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要向读者介绍了一些每天保持开心的方法。
1．E [由上文“Instead of...actionable practices．”可知，文章主要在讲怎样才能让我们快乐和笑，而下文又分四个小点来给读者提供一些保持开心的方法。E项有启下作用。故选E。]
2．D [由本段小标题以及下文可知，本段主要讲笑应该从早上就开始，和刷牙一样成为每天都做的事情。所以D项符合语境。故选D。]
3．C [由本段小标题以及上文可知，本段主要是在讲要学会自我取笑来减压，换句话说，即允许自己犯错做傻事。C项和上文laugh at yourself以及下文切合，符合语境。故选C。]
4．B [由下文“From learning German to taking up...will fuel your laughter．”可知，这段主要是在讲参加新活动也会让你开怀大笑。所以B项和下文 new activities 对应，符合文意。故选B。]
5．G [由上文“With so many ways to laugh more，why wait for your bit of happiness？”可知，这里是作总结，G项中any of the ideas above有总结作用，和上文many ways对应。故选G。]
Ⅲ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者当服务员的经历。在一个很忙的晚上，作者全场跑来跑去，在稍微晚一点的时候，不小心将陈列的样品菜的酱汁滴在了顾客腿上，作者很害怕，不停地道歉。顾客却没有生气，而是开玩笑化解了尴尬的局面。
1．B [根据前文“I worked as a waitress at a bar”可知，此处指酒吧的客人。故选B。]
2．A [根据前文“well-off retirees”可知，他们年龄偏大。故选A。]
3．D [根据前文“Forgetting to bring salt to some might be a huge offense...”可知，不拿盐会被说，如果主动提供盐，顾客可能又会训斥你，表明服务员难做。故选D。]
4．D [根据前文拿盐与不拿盐都会引起顾客的不满可知，这是种很难平衡的行为。故选D。]
5．A [根据前文“we were short-staffed”可知，作者需要跑来跑去，服务每一桌客人。故选A。]
6．B [根据前文说酒吧的顾客很难对付可知，此处表示作者在这么忙并且服务人员短缺的情况下，尽可能地不让顾客生气。故选B。]
7．A [根据后文“as it was a sample and had been sitting out for hours”及“next to our food displays”可知，此处表示把特色菜摆出来。故选A。]
8．C [根据后文“as it was a sample and had been sitting out for hours”可知，此处表示样品不能吃。故选C。]
9．C [根据后文“a plate I was carrying，dropped right into the food display”可知，此处表示清理桌子，端走盘子。故选C。]
10．D [根据后文语境可知，此处表示作者正在收盘子，盘子突然掉下去了。故选D。]
11．B [根据前文的“酱汁飞溅起来”可知，最终酱汁滴落在了男士的腿上。故选B。]
12．A [根据后文“apologizing in a panic”可知，此处表示作者感到很害怕。故选A。]
13．B [顾客腿上被滴落了酱汁，再根据空后“in my face”可知，此处表示作者以为顾客要往她脸上吐唾沫。故选B。]
14．C [根据前文作者把盘子弄掉了，将酱汁溅到了顾客腿上并结合常识可知，这一突然的行为把顾客吓到了，顺便把屁吓了出来。故选C。]
15．D [根据前文作者将酱汁弄到了顾客的腿上可知，此处表示作者想免费给顾客提供啤酒以表歉意。故选D。]
Ⅳ．【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了对于初学者来说，英式幽默像是一种全新的语言，理解英式幽默的关键在于“不要太把自己当回事”，英式幽默是英国人喜欢你的表现，幽默被英国人用来使人感到不那么悲伤。
1．puzzled [考查词性转换。句意：一开始，英国人对幽默的看法可能会让人感到困惑。本空在句中作表语，故应用形容词，此处表示“让人感到困惑的”，故本空应用形容词puzzled(困惑的)。]
2．a [考查冠词。句意：英式幽默就像是一种全新的语言。空后名词language为可数名词，此处表示泛指，故本空应用不定冠词a。]
3．understanding [考查非谓语动词。句意：理解英式幽默的关键是不要太把自己当回事。the key to doing sth．意为“做某事的关键”，to为介词，故本空应用动词-ing形式understanding。]
4．seriously [考查词性转换。句意见上题。take sb．(too) seriously意为“把某人(太)当回事”，故本空应用副词seriously作状语修饰动词take。]
5．to [考查介词。句意：我们的幽默是特别注意自己的缺点或弱点。pay attention to意为“注意……”，故本空应用介词to。]
6．politeness [考查词性转换。句意：英国人以非常有礼貌而闻名，但是一个英国人喜欢你的标志就是他/她很高兴地用有趣的评论“冒犯”你。根据空前形容词great可知，本空应用名词politeness。]
7．what [考查宾语从句。句意：掌握英式幽默的一个重要部分就是判断和你在一起的人觉得什么有趣。本句中“ the people you are with find funny”是宾语从句，本空在从句中作宾语，故应用what引导宾语从句。]
8．is used [考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：幽默被英国人用来使人感到不那么悲伤，甚至是在最不幸、最不愉快的时刻。本句阐述的是客观事实，故应用一般现在时；且句子主语Humour为单数且与谓语动词之间为被动关系。故填is used。]
9．to shock [考查非谓语动词。have a plan to do sth．意为“有计划做某事”，此处的to do不定式用来表示目的。故填to shock。]
10．are [考查谓语动词。全文时态为一般现在时，本句主语为复数。故填are。]

Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分)
It's well-known that humour 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 humour is the highest level of the psyche's defense mechanism (机制)，capable of turning anxiety into pleasure．
There are four humour styles．Affiliative humour 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 humour．Self-enhancing humour 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 humour is laughing at the expense of others，which often involves sarcasm (讽刺)，teasing and criticism．Self-defeating humour 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 humour 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 humour are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others．By contrast，both aggressive and self-defeating humour styles can hint_at trouble．“We find that self-defeating humour is the most concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not mattering．Those with an aggressive humour 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 humour styles，there's no reason to lose heart．Schermer says people can develop a positive，self-enhancing humour 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 humour．
C．To persuade people to stay positive．
D．To introduce ancient jokes to us．
2．According to the text，which kind of humour may you use to relieve pressure
A．Affiliative humour． B．Self-enhancing humour．
C．Aggressive humour． D．Self-defeating humour．
3．What does the underlined phrase“hint at”probably mean in the third paragraph
A．Signal． B．Explain． C．Prevent． D．Solve．
4．Which of the following will Kurt Vonnegut probably agree with
A．Humour is difficult to control．
B．Crying is a good way of relief．
C．Humour is a double-edged sword．
D．Laughter is the best cure for stress．
Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
We've all heard the expression，“Money doesn't buy happiness．”Since happiness is a side effect of laughter，shift your focus from the secret of happiness to experiences that bring you laughter．Instead of asking yourself“How can I be happy？”，ask“What makes me laugh？”This approach creates space for more actionable practices． 1
·Look at the situation through a child's eyes．
When times get stressful，take a moment to think about how you saw things as a kid．The more we can experience that childlike wonder and enthusiasm，the less we sweat even the big stuff．
·Add laughter to your mornings．
2 Therefore，laughter should be right up there with brushing your teeth on your priority list．If you're short on time，kill two birds and brush your teeth to a funny clip (短视频)!
·Learn to laugh at yourself．
Relieving yourself of pressure is the joy of learning to laugh at yourself．It also allows you to show more of your true self． 3 And set an intention to find humor in hardship．Merely laughing will fight off depression and fill you with light．
·_ 4 _
There is no better way to practice laughing at yourself than going outside your comfort zone．From learning German to taking up Rollerblade and Zumba，plenty of new activities will fuel your laughter．With so many ways to laugh more，why wait for your bit of happiness？ 5 A bit of laughter can be the best medicine!
A．Hang out with friends．
B．Take up something new．
C．Permit yourself to be silly．
D．Morning routines set the tone for the entire day．
E．Read on four ways to get your daily amount of laughter．
F．Money doesn't buy happiness but it can help us find happiness．
G．Instead，try any of the ideas above，and start feeling better now．
Ⅲ．完形填空(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分)
I worked as a waitress at a bar inside a health-food grocery store．Most of our 1 were well-off retirees and 30-something men hoping to make a deal with someone．They were generally rich but 2 ．

It was St Patrick's Day and we were short-staffed．Needless to say，it was a crazy evening with me 5 around serving everything，and making sure no one was becoming 6 ．
The bar supervisor always liked to have food specials 7 for people to see．It generally just caused us to get mean looks when we told people they probably shouldn't 8 it，as it was a sample(样品) and had been sitting out for hours．
As the night was beginning to slow down，I had an older couple sit at the only open seats—next to our food displays．I was 9 tables and leaned over to let them know I'd be right back，and 10 a plate I was carrying，dropped right into the food display．The sauce of the food flew up，and then 11 right into the man's lap．
I was 12 and apologizing in a panic while trying to set down the mountain of dishes．The man looked up at me and said，“I just have one thing to tell you．”He slowly leaned in—at which point I was thinking he was about to 13 in my face—and he said，“I don't have to fart (放屁) anymore because you 14 it out of me．”It was the laugh I needed that night，and he wouldn't even let me give him a free beer as a(n) 15 ．
