Chaplin and his friend wash sand from the river in a pan of water and expect to find gold but they have been not__5__(fortune) enough to find any.__6__， they__7__(catch) in a snowstorm in a small wooden house，__8__they have nothing to eat.

as if they were spaghetti是as if引导的方式状语从句，从句中用了虚拟语气，表示与现在事实相反的情况。as if的意思是“好像，仿佛”，与as though相同。用在look，seem，smell，taste，sound等系动词后面，引导表语从句；也可用在行为动词之后，引导方式状语从句。无论是何种从句，当其所表示的情况是事实或具有很大可能性时，通常用陈述语气；当其所表示的情况不是事实，而是主观的想像或夸大性的比喻时，通常用虚拟语气。其动词时态的判断标准如下：
注意：as if引导方式状语从句时可用省略形式，后面接名词、形容词、副词和介词短语，也可跟分词或不定式。完成句子

On humor
A sense of humor is universally considered the most valuable asset (优点)in our personality. It is born within every person’s heart, but it has to be cultivated. A person without a sense of humor is just like a spring without flowers or a dish without seasoning. In a sense, your personality lies in your sense of humor.Humor can enhance physical as well as mental well?being. It helps us bare our burdens, reduce tension，helps us overcome our frustrations, relax our muscles, and dissolve (化解)countless trifles (琐事)and irritations offered by everyday life.
With the cracking of a joke, all of our worries and sadness disappear like mist and we are full of vigor once again. Besides, humor helps us live in harmony with others. With it you can always stay on good terms with others.One way to cultivate a sense of humor is to have a wide range of knowledge about many topics so that the slightest differences in meaning of a joke can be fully understood; otherwise we would be simply at a loss in such a situation. Another crucial point in developing a sense of humor is to have a rich imagination. Nothing can be worse than the lack of imagination to kill an otherwise funny joke.A sense of humor is one of the ways in which we relax and recreate ourselves. The things we find humorous may vary, but to have a sense of humor is very important and should be cultivated to get the most out of life.
