see some social failures who are never content with society and never think of overing difficulties.Some of them are depressed and cut off from the world.Some are so badly off that they bee homeless.We should convince them that life is wonderful.阅读理解AThe power of humor and laughter is numerous.They entertain us and make us feel good.But，above all，we have discovered that humor and laughter are the best medicine.They relieve pain，reduce stress and anxiety，and are antiaging and longevity facilitators.They are extremely necessary for helping us to find and maintain a balance between life and work.However，they are slipping away from us.We have bee far too serious.The only ones who still enjoy humor，laughter，fun and play to the fullest are young children.Children tend to laugh an average of 200 times a day.For adults，however，it is a totally different story.In the 1950s people laughed on average 18 times a day.Today，we are lucky if we average between 46 times a day.As a matter of fact，a recent study found that people laugh 6 more times in the presence of one person but 30 more times in a group of people.You can get a chuckle(咯咯笑) from jokes you get on the Internet，but it is not the same as belly jiggling laughter (a deep laugh) you get when you interact with others.Socializing with friends and relatives was much looked forward to.However，this is no longer the case.In fact，the majority of people can hardly find time，nor do they have the inclination towards socializing outside home.They turn to electronic media such as television，puters，the Internet，videos，CDs，and audio equipment，which can provide them with instant selfentertainment at the push of a button.The workplace does not fare(进展) much better.Due to the pressures to produce more in the same or fewer hours available and to pete，for example，in a manufacturing field with cheaper labor elsewhere in the world，humor and laughter in the workplace have gradually eroded(逐渐毁坏) away.I have developed a real appreciation，perhaps closer to a strong desire for the power of humor and laughter.This encouraged me to write my first book titled “The Power of Humor” and subsequently my second book titled “Kids Say the Goggonest Things” based on the natural humor，laughter，play and fun that kids experience and they freely share with parents，grandparents and teachers.From writing about humor and laughter，people start to ask me to speak up for them.To date，I have developed a number of humorlaughter topics that I use in my keynote presentations.You are invited to subscribe to my free monthly emagazine “The Humormeisters Forum” by clicking on the Free Humor Ezine navigation button on the website.1According to the author，laughter is leaving us partly because .Awe treat everything in a serious wayBit relieves pain and reduces stress and anxietyCwe fail to maintain balance between life and workDthe pace of change in our lives is being faster答案A解析推理判断题。根据第二段中“We have bee far too serious.”可知，我们变得太严肃了，选项中只有A项“我们以一种很严肃的方式对待事物”符合语意。2The fourth paragraph mainly tells us that .Agetting a deep laugh nowadays is difficultBwe can entertain ourselves with the help of the InternetCpeople laugh more heartily when spending time with othersDresearchers have made a new discovery about the effect of laughter答案C解析段落大意题。阅读第四段内容可知人们在聊天互动中笑得次数更多，也更发自内心。四选项中只有C项“人们在与其他人在一起时笑得更发自内心”。故选C。3The underlined word “inclination” in Paragraph 5 most probably means “ ”Adestination BtendencyCattitude Dapproach答案B解析词义猜测题。划线词所在句句意为“事实上，大多数人很难找到时间，他们也没有在外面成为社交家的倾向。”故选B项。BSummer school is something a kid will never forget.For some，its a way to advance past their classmates.For most，summer school is a requirement in order to graduate with their classmates.I can remember being forced into taking a summer school course.It was not the school that forced me into this awkward situation；it was my mother.I was a 16yearold kid in a new school.My school did not offer summer courses so I had to take my course at an alternative school in the city.It was an experience I will never forget.I was not concerned with making friends.I was there to get credit(学分) for a course that I should have received for the previous semester.It was my doing that landed me in the situation and it was important that I understood this.The fees were lowest but the experience was amazing.I enjoyed it so much that I didnt miss a day.The course was from
