He looked thin and hungry. He was hoping to get work in show business. He could sing and dance; above all, he knew how to make people laugh. But he couldn't get work and so he wandered about the city streets. Sometimes he was sent away to a home for children who had no parents.But twenty years later this name Chaplin became the greatest, best­known, and best­loved edian in the world. Any visitor to the cinema must have seen some of Chaplin's filmstrips(膠片). People everywhere have sat and laughed at them until the tears ran down their faces. Even people who don't understand English can enjoy Chaplin's films though most of them are silent. It isn't what he says that makes us laugh. His edy doesn't depend upon words and languages. It depends upon little actions which mean the same thing to people all over the world. Acting out, without words, mon human situations plays an important part in the dances and plays of many countries. It's a kind of world language.Chaplin lived most of his life in America and died in Switzerland on Christmas Day, 1977, at the age of eighty­eight. The world was astonished at the news of the death and burst into sadness.文章大意：本文主要介紹了卓別林的生平以及他作為喜劇演員的成就。56Why was young Chaplin waiting outside the back entrance of the theatre?ABecause he had no money to buy a ticket.BBecause he wanted to get a returned ticket.CBecause he wanted to play a part in a play in order to make a living.DBecause he wanted to see the famous actors or actresses after the performance.答案：C推理判斷題。從第一段中的hungry一詞及hoping to get work in show business可推知他為了生活，想要參與演出，故選C。57It was _ that made people enjoy his films.Awonderful dialoguesBthe beautiful musicChis funny appearanceDhis own manner of acting答案：D推理判斷題。由第二段中的His edy doesn't depend upon words and languages.一句可排除A項(xiàng)。B、C兩項(xiàng)文中未涉及，因此推斷他依靠自己特有的演出方式贏得觀眾，故選D。58The reason why Chaplin is regarded as king of edy is that _.Ahis films are most silentBhe knew how to make people laughChe could not only act but also write ediesDhe acted out the mon human situations best in his edy答案：D推理判斷題。從第二段最后兩句可知無聲的表演在喜劇中是最好的，卓別林也因此被認(rèn)為是喜劇之王。BFor any person who must speak in public, to business or pleasure groups, humor is a helpful and necessary tool for getting your message across. Why does humor work a lot? There are several reasons.People will enjoy what you have to say if it is presented with humor. But，more importantly，if you are in a situation where important，and perhaps controversial (有爭議的) ，ideas must be presented to less than open minds, humor allows those ideas to be presented in a non­threatening(無威脅的) manner. Abraham Lincoln was famous for his ability to relate humorous stories to make a point. Humor used carefully throughout a presentation will also keep the listeners' interest high. In a word，individuals learning how to use humor in their speeches can strengthen arguments, support interesting presentations and, most of all，entertain their audience in a positive and fortable way.While popular culture may well hold many kinds of humor，some of it has no place in presentations that are designed to educate and encourage the audience. If you want to bee a professional excellent edian whose goal is 100% entertainment, then you may be able to use some of the reference materials like The Art of Using Humor in Public Speaking. They can help you develop your skills and sources of humor. To that end,_your participation in this study of humor will bee necessary. Hopefully, you will e to appreciate the special difficulty of entertaining the audience with good and clean humor.文章大意：幽默在社會生活和日常生活中非常重要。如何培養(yǎng)幽默技巧？本文做了闡述。59How many reasons does the author give for using humor?ATwo.

Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are peting for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the_opposite_is_true:_trees survive through their co­operation and support, passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it”Nitrogen (氮) and carbon are shared through miles of underground fungi (真菌)networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons (神經(jīng)元) in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.Simard talks about “mother trees”， usually the largest and oldest plants on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down “mother trees” with no awareness of these highly plex “tree societies” or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.“We didn't take any notice of it” Simard says sadly. “Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dying, but we never give them chance.” If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.文章大意：本文介紹了植物界的一種現(xiàn)象：樹和樹之間是相互依存的關(guān)系。母親樹會在臨死前把營養(yǎng)傳給下一代讓它們繼續(xù)生長。63The underlined sentence “the opposite is true” in Paragraph 2 probably means that trees _ . Apete for survivalBprotect their own wealthCdepend on each otherDprovide support for dying trees答案：C詞義猜測題。從文中的trees survive enough their co­operation and support , passing around necessary nutrition “depending on who needs it.”可知本題答案為C項(xiàng)。64“Mother trees” are extremely important because they _.Alook the largest in size in the forestBpass on nutrition to young treesCseem more likely to be cut down by humansDknow more about the plex “tree societies”答案：B推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段的She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation transporting important minerals to young trees so they my continue to grow可知本題答案為B項(xiàng)。65The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to _.Ahow “tree societies” workBhow trees grow oldChow forestry industry developsDhow young trees survive答案：A詞義猜測題。第四段說的是樹的社會系統(tǒng)，而第五段的第一句話的意思是：我們以前沒有注意到這個事情。故本題答案為A項(xiàng)。66What would be the best title for the passage?AOld Trees municate Like HumansBYoung Trees Are In Need Of ProtectionCTrees Are More Awesome Than You ThinkDTrees Contribute To Our Society答案：C主旨大意題。本文介紹了植物界的一種現(xiàn)象：樹和樹之間是相互依存的關(guān)系。母親樹會在臨死前把營養(yǎng)傳給下一代讓它們繼續(xù)生長?？芍绢}答案為C項(xiàng)。DIt is the year 2011，and I'm 62 years old. I've been in the humor business for over 50 years，and I still don't get tired of putting smiles on people's faces. I think humor is not just jokes that you can find on the Internet.Therapeutic (醫(yī)療的) humor can help people who are sick by teaching them to laugh at many of life's problems. Laughter causes the brain to produce some chemicals which help your body relax. People in Japan found that skin wounds healed up faster for patients who watched Charlie Chaplin's edies than for patients who watched weather reports. I believe that the surest and easiest way to send a“feel good” message and to reduce stress is through laughter! Over the years，I have gotten hundreds of e­mails with respect to my website and my work. I got the following e­mail from a person I do not know named Wayne. He writes：“I wish to thank you for brightening up my day a bit. I found your site during a very difficult time in my life. You see, my mother passed away in July of this year. Later my friend introduced me to your website and I decided to take a look. Thanks for the laughs I had today. Wayne.”From this e­mail you can probably see why I've been in the humor business for such a long time. Research has shown that having the ability to laugh at ourselves，and at all of the crazy things we do, can be good for our well­being. My advice is for everyone to get a lot of Vitamin H (H is short for humor and for health)文章大意：本文以一名多年從事幽默工作的人員講述了幽默的好處。鼓勵人們生活中只要尋找幽默之處，人們就會有美好的生活和健康的身體。67Which of the following is wrong? A. I've worked in the humor business for more than 50 years. B. In my opinion humor is just jokes that you can find on the Internet. C. Laughter can reduce stress. D. Although the author works in the business for many years，he likes this business very much.答案：B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段前兩句可知，A項(xiàng)正確；根據(jù)第一段第三句可知，B項(xiàng)錯誤；根據(jù)第二段“I believe that the surest and easiest way to send a feel good message and to reduce stress is through laughter！”可知，C項(xiàng)正確；根據(jù)第一段第二句可知，D項(xiàng)正確。故選B項(xiàng)。68People in Japan believe _. A. humor has no effect on the patients B. Charlie Chaplin can cure (治愈) the illness C. humor is good for the patients D. Charlie Chaplin's edies is more important than weather reports答案：C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句可知，C項(xiàng)正確，A項(xiàng)錯誤；B項(xiàng)把Charlie Chaplin's edies說成了Charlie Chaplin；第二段第三句意思是卓別林的喜劇能使病人康復(fù)的快一些，而不是說明它比天氣預(yù)報重要，所以D項(xiàng)錯誤。故選C項(xiàng)。69The author has been in the humor business for a long time because _. A. humor can make himself/herself happy B. he can not find a better job C. humor business can make people happy and get out of the trouble Dthis business offers him/her a lot of money答案：C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段最后“He writes. thanks for the laughs I had today. Wayne”和第三段第一句可知，使作者一直從事這份工作的原因就是幽默能使人快樂，使病人康復(fù)，能幫助處于困境中的人們脫困。因此選C項(xiàng)。70What's the best title of this passage?AHumor is good.BHumor and Health.CDo you like humor?DHumor is more important than weather reports.答案：B主旨大意題。整篇文章都圍繞幽默能使人快樂，使病人康復(fù)，能幫助處于困境中的人們脫困。在最后一段中點(diǎn)出了幽默對健康的促進(jìn)作用，因此選B項(xiàng)。EI have heard having a good sense of humour often helps in breaking the ice. Also people remember you because of your humour. But I think I don't have a very good sense of humour. Could you suggest how to build on this? Radha Karnik This is a great question that is unfortunately difficult to answer. I can only give you my views on this topic, which may or may not be correct. I know that my sense of humour developed over time. When I was younger I was not funny at all; now I can easily make people laugh. At the same time, sometimes I say things that I think are very funny but others do not. Improving wit and humour, I believe, is an ongoing process. Now, there are various forms of humour and everyone has their individual style. Overall, I believe being fluent in a language is very important for being witty or funny. The way we play around with words adds the “funny” tag to an otherwise normal sentence. Also, seeing irony is very important. I think humour is often t
