四、阅读理解

A culture’s values can be mirrored by its humor.Humor has been evaluated by many great minds such as Thomas Hobbes,who disliked humor,“Laughter is nothing else but sudden glory arising from some sudden thought of feeling far better than others.”He thought humor to be a negative quality of human narrow-mindedness.
However,Mordechai Gordon,Ph.D of Education,insists,“Humor allows us to view the world from an angle that is amusing rather than serious.”I agree with Gordon.Learning to look at the world through humor is important.
In the United States,every four years an election occurs.Without humor as a way to express their feelings,how else would Americans keep from clawing their eyes out and going the way of lemming?Television shows like“The Daily Show”have become important parts of American culture.They are mothering the masses by metaphorically(隐喻地) airplane-ing politics into our mouths.They make politics fun.
Of course,politics is only one type of humor.Social humor helps people through the twists and turns of the human condition.American pop culture promotes an unhealthy self-image.On the topic of self-image,Hari Kondabolu stands out.He has a joke about the popular musical group“The Pussycat Dolls”,describing their hit song “Don’t Cha” as a negative representation of women.He points out an obvious offence in American culture.
A study from Loyola University of Maryland has shown that humor is one determining factor for selecting a mating partner.Amongst other things,mates look for an outstanding funny bone in a potential partner.
Of course,humor is not always used for good purposes.Humor can be linked to vulgarity(庸俗) and racism,but,like everything else,it has potential to unite human beings by allowing us to laugh at ourselves,our failures and our connection with one another.
Though life may seem tough and depressing at times,all I have to do is look in the mirror at my increased wrinkles(皱纹) to know that there is a comedy out there that even Chaplin wasn’t aware of.
With that in mind,remember to laugh with humanity and sometimes at humanity.
1.Hobbes believed that humor .?
A.was only a way to laugh at others to make oneself feel better
B.resulted in narrow-mindedness of human beings
C.had the power to mirror personal glory and national values
D.was for people to view the world from another angle
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知,Thomas Hobbes不喜欢幽默,并从他的话“Laughter is nothing...better than others.”中可知,应选择A项。
2.What is the author’s attitude towards political humor?
A.Worried. B.Disappointed.
C.Curious. D.Appreciative.
答案D
解析观点态度题。根据文章第三段中的“Without humor...way of lemming?”及“They make politics fun.”可知,作者对于政治幽默持赞赏的态度。appreciative“欣赏的,赏识的”。
3.The fourth paragraph is developed mainly .?
A.by example B.by process
C.by comparison D.by classification
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第四段的内容可知,作者是通过举例子来支撑自己的观点的,因此选择A项。
4.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?
A.Chaplin wasn’t aware of being laughed at.
B.The author feels helpless and sad about getting older.
C.Never be the one who laughs at other people.
D.The author is determined to face life with a sense of humor.
答案D

B
A sense of humour is just one of the many things shared by Alfred and Anthony Melillo,64-year-old twin brothers from East Haven who made history in February 2002.On Christmas Eve,1992,Anthony had a heart transplant from a 21-year-old donor.Two days before Valentine’s Day in 2002,Alfred received a 19-year-old heart,marking the first time on record that twin adults each received heart transplants.
“I’m 15 minutes older than him,but now I’m younger because of my heart and I’m not going to respect him,” Alfred said with a grin(咧嘴笑),pointing to his brother while talking to a roomful of reporters,who laughed frequently at their jokes.
While the twins knew that genetics might have played a role in their condition,they recognized that their eating habits might have also contributed to their heart problems.“We’d put half a pound of butter on a steak.I overdid it on all the food that tasted good,so I guess I deserved what I got for not dieting properly.”
The discussion moved to Anthony’s recovery.In the five years since his heart transplant,he had been on an exercise program where he regularly rode a bicycle for five miles,swam each day,and walked a couple of miles.He was still on medication,but not nearly as much as Alfred,who was just in the early stage of his recovery.
“Right now I feel pretty young and I’m doing very well,” Anthony said.“I feel like a new person.”
Alfred said his goal,of course,was to feel even better than his brother.But,he added,“I love my brother very much.We’re very close and I’m sure we’ll do just fine.”
5.What did Alfred and Anthony have in common?
A.Lifespan. B.Career goals.
C.A sense of humour. D.Love for bicycling.
答案C
解析细节理解题。由第一段第一句可知,艾尔弗雷德和安东尼的共同点之一就是他们都有幽默感。
6.What did Alfred and Anthony think caused their heart problems?
A.Exercise. B.Diet.
C.Surgery. D.Medicines.
答案B
解析推理判断题。由第三段最后一句可推知,他们认为自己的心脏病是由于没有适当的饮食造成的。
7.Why did Alfred say,“I’m 15 minutes older than him,but now I’m younger because of my heart”?
A.His heart transplant surgery was more successful than Anthony’s.
B.His recovery from the heart surgery was faster than Anthony’s.
C.His exercise program was better than Anthony’s.
D.His new heart was younger than Anthony’s.
答案D
解析细节理解题。由第二段第一句可知,艾尔弗雷德认为自己比安东尼小,是因为他新移植的心脏比安东尼的年轻。
8.This article is mainly about .?
A.the danger of heart transplant surgery
B.becoming young by getting a new heart
C.the effect of genetics on the heart
D.the twin brothers who received heart transplants
答案D
解析主旨大意题。由整篇文章来看,主要讲述的是双胞胎兄弟艾尔弗雷德和安东尼进行心脏移植的事情。

课件59张PPT。Unit 3 A taste of English humourMr Bean
【语篇导读】他是个“有一点笨拙、有一点幼稚、有一点单向思维(脑筋不转弯)、有一点腼腆、又有一点短路的家伙,他的喜剧感来自你我都有可能会发生的日常生活中”,他就是英国喜剧演员罗温·艾金森。
Comic actor and writer Rowan Atkinson starred on the TV series “Not the Nine O’clock News” and “The Black Adder.”He is best known for his infamous role as Mr.Bean in the television series and 1997 feature film of the same name.Rowan Atkinson was born on January 6,1955.He studied at Newcastle University and Oxford University,and earned① a master’s degree in electrical engineering.He got his start performing② sketches while studying at Oxford,first appearing in Oxford revues at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.Soon,he was entertaining③ at theater clubs and on comedy shows for BBC Radio 3.In 1979,Atkinson wrote for and starred in the BBC’s Not the Nine O’clock News.In 1981,Atkinson became the youngest performer to star in a one-man show in the West End.
In 1990,Atkinson starred as his originally developed character Mr.Bean on the TV series of the same name.The successful comedy series was adapted④ for film in 1997.Atkinson performed his famous Mr.Bean character in a comedy sketch at the opening ceremony⑤ of the 2012 Summer Olympic Games.Why has the character enjoyed success with people of different cultures?One reason is that there’s very little dialogue in the stories and thus no language barrier.The sight of Mr. Bean as a barber making a terrible mess of some poor customer’s hair doesn’t need translating.?
But there’s a deeper reason.Although he is British and the stories generally take place in British settings,Mr. Bean is really nation-less.People from different cultures laugh at Mr. Bean for the same reason earlier generations laughed at comic star Charlie Chaplin.词海拾贝
①earn vt.获得
②perform vt.表演
③entertain vt.(使)娱乐
④adapt vt.改编
⑤ceremony n.仪式

三、阅读理解
A
You have probably heard the saying,“When life gives you lemons,make lemonade.” Since lemons are considered bitter and lemonade is considered sweet,the saying tells you to make the best out of a bad situation.
Unfortunately,when something bad happens,it’s not uncommon for most people to talk about it to anyone who’ll listen,and complain about life,“Why me?”That’s like getting a bag of lemons,putting them down,and thinking,“Lemons taste bad!I’d rather have chocolate!” If you don’t make anything with the lemons,they will go bad.But what if you did something with them?What if you made lemonade?Isn’t it possible to do something similar with a bad situation?
Here’s an example.Let’s say you’re about to go to the movies,but you discover you have a flat tire.You consider this a terrible thing.After all,you are really looking forward to spending some time with Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone.Now you’re all stressed out,hating the tire,the car,and your life.But what if you called AAA,got your tire fixed or got caught up on things that you’d been meaning to do?What if you did some reading,or had coffee with a friend instead?A negative experience can be turned into something positive.Almost anything can work itself out into something better.You can’t change what has happened,right?So make the best of it.I’m not saying it will be easy.The easy thing to do is complain about your bad situation and not consider what it could be turned into.
Next time when some unfortunate things happen,stop and think,“How can I turn this around?How can I make it a positive experience?”You needn’t fear difficulties.As long as you keep on changing it,you will see the benefits at last.
1.What do we know about the saying in Paragraph 1?
A.It is encouraging. B.It is funny.
C.It is easy to do. D.It is negative.
答案A
解析推理判断题。根据第一段中的“the saying tells you to make the best out of a bad situation”可知,要从不好的处境中获得最好的。这是令人鼓舞的,故选A项。
2.What do most people usually do when something bad happens?

B.Find out the reasons.
C.Complain about it.
D.Ask others for help.
答案C
解析细节理解题。根据第二段“Unfortunately,when something bad happens,it’s not uncommon for most people to talk about it to anyone who’ll listen,and complain about life...”可知,当不好的事情发生时,大多数人会对那些倾听的人抱怨生活的不易。故选C项。

A.a flat tire happens sometimes

答案D
解析推理判断题。根据第三段中的“A negative experience can be turned into...could be turned into.”可知,消极的经历可以变成积极的事情。几乎任何事情都能把自己变成更好的东西。你无法改变所发生的一切,对吧?所以要好好利用它。我并不是说这很容易。最简单的事情就是抱怨你的糟糕处境,而不考虑它会变成什么样子。由此可知,作者告诉我们如何把不好的事情变成好的事情,故选D项。
4.According to the author,what is the best way to deal with a bad situation?
A.Trying hard to solve it.
B.Laughing your way through it.
C.Thinking more about its benefits.
D.Turning it into a positive experience actively.

A large advertisement appeared on the financial page of a New York newspaper calling for a person with unusual ability and experience.Charles T.Cubellis answered the advertisement,sending his reply to a box number.A few days later,he was invited by letter to call for an interview.
Before he called,he spent hours in Wall Street finding out everything possible about the person who had founded the business.During the interview,he remarked: “I should be very proud to be associated with an organization with a record like yours.I understand you started twenty-eight years ago with nothing but a desk room and one assistant.Is that true?”
Almost every successful person likes to recall his early struggles.Alice,the boss was no exception.She talked with smile about how she had started with $ 450 in cash and an original idea.She told how she had fought against discouragement,working on Sundays and holidays,twelve to sixteen hours a day;how she had finally won and until now,the most important executives on Wall Street were coming to her for information and guidance.She was proud of such a record.She had a right to be,and she had a wonderful time telling about it.Finally,Alice questioned Mr.Cubellis about his experience,then called in her assistant and said,“I think this is the person we are looking for.”
Mr.Cubellis had taken the trouble to find out about the past of his future employer.He showed an interest in the other person and his problems.He encouraged the other person to do most of the talking and made a favorable impression.
Most people trying to win others in their own way of thinking do too much talking themselves.Let the other people talk themselves out.They know more about their business and problems than you do.

A.He telephoned the top leader of the company.
B.He searched for information about the boss of the company.

答案C

7.What do we know about Alice’s road to success?
A.It was full of difficulties.
B.It was full of opportunities.
C.It was smooth and pleasant.
D.It was lucky and interesting.
答案A

8.What was Charles T.Cubellis’s key to success of the interview?
A.Letting others talk more.
B.Talking a lot about himself.
C.Focusing on his advantages.
D.Answering questions wisely.
答案A
解析细节理解题。根据第四段中的“He encouraged the other person to do most of the talking and made a favorable impression.”可知,Charles T.Cubellis面试成功的关键在于他让别人谈得更多。故选A项。

Harpo Marx,along with his brothers,grew up together in a very poor Jewish family in New York City.Though two of them knew some music,the Marxs never considered show business until their uncle made it big in vaudeville(杂耍).So their mother,Minnie,pushed them into forming an act which involved(使参与) Groucho as a boy singer,Chico on piano,and Harpo on harp(竖琴) with another of their brothers,Herbert Gummo,backing them up.Soon Gummo was replaced by Zeppo.Somehow or other,the Marx brothers’ music gave way to comedy.Chico got laughs by pretending to be an Italian who couldn’t speak English very well,mixing up the meanings of words and phrases to great comic effect(喜剧效果).And Harpo,who had trouble saying lines and was not good at accents,got into the habit of just not speaking at all.There’s no good way to really describe Harpo’s act: it’s kind of like watching a naughty three-year-old child in a man’s body during an extreme sugar rush.
When vaudeville gave way to movies,the brothers became famous in the film world with their first picture The Cocoanuts in 1929,Animal Crackers in 1930,Monkey Business in 1931,Horse Feathers in 1932,and Duck Soup in 1933.Their greatest movie A Night at the Opera in 1935 gave them a high and solid reputation that lasted for the rest of their lives.Though Groucho went on to become the most popular brother because of his early 60’s television show You Bet Your Life and some other projects,as a team they lived out their golden years performing together.So if you get a chance,don’t pass up the chance to catch a Marx brothers’ movie: you’ll discover the random(无厘头) trend around every corner today is all their doing.理解诱思
