He went away to graduate school in Pennsylvania and me not too far away. Back in college we used to meet up in the campus library all the time, working out those term papers and talking each other. But that was almost a decade ago, and our friendship could have easily flamed out. The distance could have become too much, and we could have moved on with our lives and away from each other.But the thing that kept us together, I think, is laughter. When we talk on the phone or see each other in person, its always one good laugh. The conversation is fast paced, and were telling joke after joke, adding humor wherever it fits. Now I know that the laughter keeps us close and reminds us why were friends in the first place. Even when I go home and see my relatives, its always one comedy show.Laughter_is_tricky_because_not_everyone_laughs_at_the_same_thing. I think Chelsea Handler is very humorous but you might hate everything she has ever said. Or you might think something is funny and your friend maybe just doesnt get it. So, sure, we all laugh at very different things, but when you can actually get a person to laugh it shows that you connect to their spirit and soul.Thats why Ive always thought that the key difference between someone youre close to and someone you barely know or maybe dont get along with so well is laughter. If a person cant get you to laugh, maybe theyre not worth your time. Theyre not worth your time because they dont really know you the way they should. And, anyway, life is too short to take everything so seriously.本文是议论文。如果一个朋友根本不能让你笑，那他也许不值得让你投入时间。人生苦短，找能笑到一起的人做伴，总比一本正经舒服得多。1.

Strange as it may seem, if youre unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desiresnot that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes. Real riches consist of welldeveloped and hearty capacities (能力) to enjoy life. Most people are already swamped (淹没) with things. They eat, wear, go and talk too much. They_live_in_too_big_a_house_with_too_many_rooms,_yet_their_house_of_life_is_a_hut. Your house of life ought to be a mansion (豪宅), a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have. Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when youre hungry. Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library. Music like Mozarts and Bachs shouldnt be absent. Real riches are of the spirit.And when youve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk，you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills. Sports, without which you remain poor, mean a lot in life. No matter who you are, you would be more human, and your house of life would be better supported against the bad days, if you could, and did, play a bit. Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.本文为议论文，题材是社会生活类。作者认为一个人要想快乐和幸福，要让自己的心灵之“墅”富有。文章诠释了“真正的幸福源于精神富有”的道理。5. The author intends to tell us that _.A. true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair meansB. big houses are peoples most valued possessionsC. big houses can in a sense bring richness of lifeD. true happiness comes from spiritual riches答案：D推理判断题。文章的主要目的就是告诉人们真正的幸福和快乐来自精神上的富有，所以正确答案为D项。6. The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that _.A. however materially rich, they never seem to be satisfiedB. however materially rich, they remain spiritually poorC. though their house is big, they prefer a simple lifeD. though their house is big, it seems to be a cage答案：B词义猜测题。画线部分句子的意思是“人们住太大的房子，有太多的房间，然而他们的生命之家依然是个简陋的小房子”和B项“不管物质上多富有，他们在精神上仍然很贫穷”的内容接近。故选B项。7. It can be learned from the passage that _ .A. more money brings more happinessB. art is needed to make your house beautifulC. literature can enrich your spiritual lifeD. sports contribute mainly to your physical fitness答案：C推理判断题。根据文章第五段可以推断“文学能丰富你的生活”，故答案为C项。A项为无关信息。从文章中的信息可以看出，art可以丰富你的精神生活，而不是美化你的房子，所以B项错误。sports也可以丰富精神生活，而不仅仅是使身体健康，所以D项错误。8. What would be the best title for the passage?A. House of LifeB. Secret of WealthC. Rest and RefreshmentD. Interest and Enthusiasm答案：A主旨大意题。本文主要讲述精神生活的心灵之“墅”，关键词就是“house of life”，故答案为A项。长难句Strange as it may seem, if youre unsatisfied, the issue is not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desiresnot that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you dont have enough tastes.尽管看起来也许很奇怪，如果你不满意，问题不是没有满足渴望的手段，而是没有渴望；不是你不能够满足自己的喜好，而是你没有足够的喜好。Strange as it may seem是倒装句，相当于Though it may seem strange；句中的not.but.不是而是连接并列成分。
