试题分析:本文为说明文,文章向我们介绍了“世界大笑日”的功能和重要性。“世界大笑日”诞生于印度,是为世界和平而开展的一项积极的活动。其目的是通过开怀大笑来增进世人之间兄弟般的情谊。如今恐怖分子的袭击遍及全世界,加之其他方面的压力使得人们更加需要“大笑”这门全球通用的语言。
小题1:C in peace处于和平中;in difficulty处在困境中;at war处在交战中,among challenge
处于挑战中。根据上文说“世界上以前从来没有面临这么多的麻烦”可见“人类为了自然资源、领土、宗教信仰在与人类自己交战。”
小题2:A unite团结;unfold展开,打开;release释放;handle处理。这儿说的是微笑作为世界通用的语言的功能:它不需要什么宗教信仰就能够把人类团结起来。下文“laughter and only the laughter can unite the world”也可以验证答案。
小题3:D position位置,地位,职位;ruler尺,直尺,统治者;size大小,尺寸;order命令,秩序,规则,制度,次序。笑声可以在各种宗教宗教信仰之间建立正常的联系,并创建一个新的世界秩序。
小题4:A belief相信,信念;advice建议;intention意图,目的,意向,意义;plan计划。上文说“这种想法(笑声可以在各种宗教宗教信仰之间建立正常的联系,并创建一个新的世界秩序)听上去也许野心勃勃。也许是这样,但也许不是”。下文接着说“我们坚信笑声也只有笑声才能把世界团结起来……”。
小题5:D safe安全的;humorous和谐的;common 共同的;global全球的,世界范围的。这儿所说的“……的意识/理念”应该与“安全意识”、“和谐意识”以及“常识”无关。故选D项。坚持世界之内皆兄弟般友谊的理念。
小题6:C partly部分地;intensively强烈地,集中地;especially特别地;universally普遍地,一般地。上文 “研究表明大笑对于你的身体有下列益处:降低血压,缓解沮丧感,减轻紧张感,锻炼心脏功能”,上文所说的这些应该对“不能参加体育(体力方面的)锻炼的人特别地有益”。
小题7:C mental精神上的;heart心脏的;physical体力的;morning上午,早晨的。上文 “研究表明大笑对于你的身体有下列益处:降低血压,缓解沮丧感,减轻紧张感,锻炼心功能”,上文所说的这些应该对“不能参加体育(体力方面的)锻炼的人特别地有益”。

举一反三
“Small talk is where all your relationships begin,” Forbes magazine summed up.
The following is a five-step guide to making small talk from Bernardo J. Carducci, the director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast, US. Let’s have a look.
Getting started
Begin by talking about the setting, such as the weather outside or the room you are in (“It’s cold in here, isn’t it?”). The purpose of talking about the setting is to show the other person that you are willing to make a conversation.
②The personal introduction
You should mention something about yourself, such as your name. A good personal introduction helps move the conversation forward.
③Looking for topics
At this point, you and your conversation partner need to find common ground. This is a good time to ask questions or to refer back to things you’ve said or heard earlier. Don’t worry if it gets quiet. The other person is probably just thinking of something to say.
④Expanding the topic
The goal is to keep the conversation going. At every stage, you should be careful not to talk too much. But don’t let the other person dominate the conversation either. If that starts to happen, mention something about yourself when he or she takes a breath.
⑤A polite ending
When ending a conversation, let the person know you’ll be leaving soon, express gratitude for the conversation and set the stage for a future conversation. For example, you could say, “I really must be going soon, but I had a great time chatting with you. I really liked hearing your opinion about that new movie. Here’s my phone number. Call or text me if you know of any other movies you think I might enjoy.”
小题1:According to the article, starting by talking about the setting is meant to ________.
A.find common ground | B.impress the other person |
C.make a conversation | D.make the room warmer |
A.interrupt | B.control | C.adapt | D.simplify |
A.talk about how much you want to keep talking |
B.show that you’ve not enjoyed the talk |
C.mention a specific movie that you love |
D.give your opinion about the other person’s earlier comments |
A.encourage students to make more friends |
B.give students tips on making small talk |
C.introduce popular topics for students |
D.teach students how to create friendships |
Improve your player or your free throwing skills by following the tips below:
Make it personal. The truth is, there is no rule on how one should handle and throw the ball in a free throw. What matters is that the player should shoot the ball from the free throw line no matter how he does it. So when trying to improve your free throw shooting, better stick to what works the best for you. Do not copy other people’s techniques. Make it your own and leave those techniques as theirs.
Formulate (公式化) a repetitive way of shooting the ball. A free throw should be personalized. But it should also be repetitive. You should be able to repeat your free throw techniques whether you are in your court or in another court, whether you are energized or tired. You can’t say you have a personal free throw technique if you can’t repeat it over and over again.
Shoot at the same position and distance for every free throw. Basketball courts may be located in different places or maybe marked with different paint colors. But all of these courts maintain the same distance from the ring to the free throw line. Familiarize your perfect position when making your free throws. That should help you do your perfect throw.
小题1:Why do so many players fail to make a successful free throw?
A.Because they don’t have any special skills |
B.Because they are lacking in practice and tips. |
C.Because they are not so familiar with rules |
D.Because many of them are green hands. |
A.Learn from others. |
B.Form your own throwing skills. |
C.Keep active in the court. |
D.Learn to throw in different locations. |
A.sound | B.basket | C.ball | D.group |
A.How to play basketball successfully in the court. |
B.How to improve your basketball throw skills. |
C.How to gain more points in throwing. |
D.How to improve your basketball free throwing. |
2Both groups proved their ability to do any kind of job. Women became railway conductors, brick layers, and factory workers. Their presence in traditionally male workplace produced many problems. Men were annoyed by women’s higher productivity and willingness to work for lower pay. Working mothers were often criticized for leaving their families. But many women welcomed the responsibilities. “It was not until our men were called overseas,” said one woman bank executive, “that we make any real onslaught on the realm of finance, and became tellers, managers of departments, and junior and senior officers.”
3Women who did not take jobs helped in the war effort in other ways. They made uniforms, rolled bandages, and campaigned for the sale of Liberty Bonds to help finance the war.
4American manufacturers offered jobs to large numbers of black Americans for the first time as a result of the war. Most factories were located in the North. To take advantage of these new job opportunities, many black families moved from their homes in the South to the Northern cities such as Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Buffalo, Chicago, and Detroit.
5White Americans were of two minds about the role of black Americans in the war effort. On the one hand, black workers’ ability to learn new jobs quickly and do them well strengthened the home front, and the black men’s fighting ability helped the Allies win the war. However, many whites did not want to acknowledge that blacks were capable, effective workers. White soldiers returning from the war had no desire to compete for jobs with blacks on equal terms. At the same time, many blacks were not willing to a lesser role once the war had ended.
小题1:Why could American women and backs find jobs during World War I?
A.They were taken to serve the war. | B.They had their equal right at that time. |
C.Workforce was in great need. | D.They had better productivities. |
A.Blacks women were not allowed to fight in World War I. |
B.All American women went to work during World War I. |
C.Northern cities applied more blacks during World War I. |
D.Women and blacks earned a lot during World War I. |
A. Americans benefited a lot from World Ward I.
B. World War I had strong effect on America.
C. Some Americans benefited from World War I indirectly.
D. U.S.A. women and blacks contributed much in World War I.
小题4:Which of the following shows the right structures of the above passage?
A.1→23→45 | B.1→2→3→4→5 |
C.1→23→4→5 | D.123→4→5 |
When you leave it, lock it!
First of all, fit security locks to all doors and windows and a safety chain on the front door. Secondly, use them! If you have any ladders or tools, don’t leave them lying about in the garden, lock them away. “Safe” or “secret” places for keys and valuables are not reliable - nine times out of ten, they are the first place a thief will look.
When you move house...
When you move into a new home even if it is fitted with security locks, change them. You don’t know who else may have keys.
Never let strangers into your house. An official - looking cap is not enough, ask for proof of identity and look at it carefully - if you are still not satisfied, don’t let the person in.
Valuables need special protection
Valuables should really be given special protection - preferably by leaving them with your bank. A small security safe works too, but not to the most determined burglar. It is also important to keep an up - to - date list of valuables and their descriptions. In the case of fine art, paintings, or jewelry, color photographs can sometimes be of assistance to the police if you are unfortunate enough to have them stolen. Enter the details on the back of the pictures. But don’t keep such documents in your house, keep them at the hank or with your insurance company.
Going on holiday?
Don’t talk about your holidays and future plans loudly in public. Do remember to cancel the milk and newspapers and also to draw curtains back.
Operate a “Good Neighbor” program to ensure that mail is taken in, the house is checked regularly and that lights are put on.
Call at your local police station and tell them you are going away. Make sure that they know how to contact you in case of trouble.
Don’t leave cash or valuables in the house—take them with you or put them in the bank.
小题1:How should you deal with your ladders or tools?
A.You should leave them in the yard. |
B.You should put them in the safe place and lock the door. |

C.never let officials into your house unless he wears an official cap |
D.stay away from strangers |

Most people know that awkward feeling when you shuffle(拖着鞋走)into an elevator with other people and try not to make eye contact.
But new research suggests it may be down to a subconscious power struggle being played out as you make your way up or down.
A study found that people decide where they stand based on a micro social hierarchy,established within seconds of entering the lift.
Rebekah Rousi,a Ph.D.student in cognitive science,conducted all ethnographic study of elevator behaviour in two of the tallest office buildings in Adelaide,Australia.
As part of her research,she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings,and discovered there was an established order to where people tended to stand.
In a blog for Ethnography Matters,she writes that more senior men seemed to direct themselves towards the back of the elevator cabins.
She said,“In front of them were younger men,and in front of them were women of all ages.”
She also noticed there was a difference in where people directed their gaze half way through the ride.
Men watched the monitors,looked in the side mirrors(in one building)to see themselves,and in the door mirrors(of the other building)to also watch others.
Women would watch the monitors and avoid eye contact with other users(unless in conversation)and the mirrors,she writes.
The doctorate student concluded it could be that people who are shyer stand toward the front,where they can’t see other passengers,whereas bolder people stand in the back,where they have a view of everyone else.
小题1:According to the passage,where do women likes to stand in the lift?
A.At the back. | B.At the front. |
C.In the middle. | D.On the right. |
A.The manner people went into the lift. |
B.The limited space in the lift. |
C.The subconscious power struggle. |
D.The micro social hierarchy. |
A.To enjoy the tallest office building. |
B.To make a study of elevator behavior. |
C.To go to work there. |
D.To experience the ride by elevator. |
A.Women are more attentive than men in the lift. |
B.Both women and men like to watch the monitors in the lift. |
C.The shyer you are,the more likely you are to stand at the back in the lift. |
D.Why where you stand in the lift reflects your social status. |
