A good joketeller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens，and so we laugh.61According to Aristotle，all jokes depend mainly on_.Ashowing inferiority in another person or groupBresulting in a sense of successChaving a good opinion of other peopleDmaking people laugh unexpectedly62Whats the main idea of Paragraph 2?AShowing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes.BWhen people are angry，they would like to hear jokes.CPeople who like jokes are usually cruel.DTo express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we like jokes.63What will a good joketeller always try to do?AMake a sad situation into a pleasant one.BMake different things happen at the same time.CMake an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation.DMake people laugh at something unusual and out of place. B Happiness pays off，studies show.Psychologists seeking the real secrets of happiness report that very happy people tend to be more extroverted and agreeable than less happy people.“Our findings suggest that very happy people have rich and satisfying social relationships and spend little time alone pared to average people，”write psychologists Ed Diener and Martin EP.Seligman in the journal Psychological Science.Solid social relationships do not promise happiness，but they are an important contributing factor.The very happy people whom the authors studied all said they had good quality social relationships.However，the authors write，there is no single key to high happiness.“High happiness seems to be like beautiful symphonic musicincluding many instruments，without any one being enough for the beautiful quality.”Diener regards happiness as “subjective (主观的) wellbeing”in other words，the person evaluates his or her own quality of life.The question to ask is，“Is my life going well，according to the standards I choose to use？”If the answer is “yes”，then that person is judged to be happy.Because people evaluate their lives based on happiness，subjective wellbeing is very important.Though necessary，it is not enough for having a good life.“Subjective wellbeing seems quite necessary for the good society，although it is not enough for that society because there are other things we also value and would want in such a place.”says Diener.Can subjective wellbeing be measured scientifically？Diener points out three parts contributing to happiness：pleasant emotions and moods，lack of negative emotions and moods，and satisfaction judgment，to which other factors including cheerfulness and feelings of fulfillment may be added.There is no magic formula for happiness.Diener suggests steps you can take to ensure you are as happy as you can be.Surrounding yourself with good friends and familypeople who care about you and whom you care aboutis a start.Joining in activities you enjoy and value is also important；whether its work or play，keeping busy in an environment enjoyable to you will contribute much to your subjective wellbeing.In addition，a healthy outlook is necessary.64The underlined word “extroverted” probably means_.Apleasant and social Bhardworking and activeCcareful and shy Dwarmhearted and helpful65Happiness and symphonic music are mon in that_.Athey are both something beautifulBthey both make people feel pleasedCthey both depend on more than one factorDthey are both hard to achieve66According to Diener，a person can be judged to be happy when he_.Ahas rich and satisfying social relationshipsBspends more time with other peopleCjoins in a lot of activities he enjoys and keeps himself optimisticDthinks his life is going well according to his own standards67Which of the following does NOT belong to factors contributing to happiness?APleasant moods. BNegative emotions.CSatisfaction judgment. DFeelings of fulfillment. CEvery kid wishes to be an adult.Do you remember playing houses as a child pretending to be a grownup like your parents？Did you imagine you were a doctor，a soldier or a teacher？At that time，anything seemed more exciting than young.But now as grownups，some adults find they cannot leave childhood behind.They bee “kidults”(kidadult)Being a kidult has bee a lifestyle choice among young people across Asia.Some kidults collect toys they once played with.Hello Kitty，Garfield，and Snoopy have many adult fans around the world.It is not unusual to see a 20something woman with a big，Garfieldshaped cushion on her sofa or a Hello Kitty mobile phone accessory(饰物)Other kidults still enjoy childrens stories and fairy tales.For example，even an edition of the Harry Potter novels with an adult cover came out in Britain.That way，no one else on the subway will know that an adult is actually reading a childrens book!“Kidults can be like vitamins to society.Adults who value their childhood and hold on to pure，childlike emotion may be needed in such a rough and dry society，”said a professor in a Korean University.He added that kidult culture might fill the generation gap between adults and kids.It could give children and their parents books，movies，and cartoon shows to enjoy together.Tim Greenhalgh，a professor in London explained that some kidults just refuse to grow up.They cling to(舍不得放弃) childhood because life in a busy and stressful city frightens them.Kidults would like to forget their age and openly show their fear of society and adulthood.“So，they look for an escape from increasingly plex and stressful life that are hard to deal with，”Greenhalgh said.68We can learn from the passage that kidults are_.Achildren who cant wait to grow upBgrownups who hold on to childlike emotionCpeople who enjoy playing sportsDyoung people who pretended to be grownups when young69According to the passage，kidults would like to do the following except_.Abuy Hello Kitty mobile phone accessoriesBread a childrens book on the subwayCwork in a busy and stressful cityDcollect toys they once played with70In the opinion of the Professor in a Korean University，kidults are_.Aimmature (不成熟) and weakBnecessary to our societyClooked down uponDgetting more and more71The main reason of the kidult culture lies in that_.Asome panies are taking advantage of itBmodern life is stressful and hardCsome people like to stay young and energeticDsome people wish to bridge the generation gap DWhere we live，on the eastern shore of Maryland，the gentle waters run in and out like fingers slimming at the tips.The Canada geese know this place，as do the white swans and the ducks.In autumn，they e home for the winter.Once or twice each year，snow and frozen rain move into the area.When this happens，if the river is at its narrowest，there is a freeze which hardens the water to ice.One morning，a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside the huge window，which overlooked the Tred Avon River.Suddenly she leaned forward and cried out，“There is a goose out there.”We saw the figure of a large Canada goose，very still，its wings folded tight to its sides，its feet frozen into the ice.Then from the dark skies，she saw a line of swans.They floated from the top of the sky downward and at last landed on the ice.My friend was on her feet now，with one hand against her mouth，unbelieving.As the swans surrounded the frozen goose，she feared that life it still had might be pecked(啄) out by those great swan bills.Instead，those bills began to work on the ice.The long necks were lifted and curved down，again and again.It went on for a long time.At last，the gooses head was lifted.Its body was pulled.Then the goose was free and stood on the ice.And the swans stood in the air watching.Then，as if it had cried，“I cannot fly.”Four of the swans came down around it.Their powerful beaks chipped off the ice held in the feathers.Slowly，the goose spread its wings as far as they would go，and moved slowly into the sky.This is a true story.I just think of it in the bad moment，and from it es only one hopeful question：If so for birds，why not for man？72Which would be the best title for the passage?AWhy Not for Man? BGraceful SwansCSwans Brave Act DI Just Couldnt Believe It!73What happened to the Canada goose?AIt was deserted by other geese. BIt was stuck in the ice.CIt was wounded and couldnt fly. DIt was lost in the water.74At first the authors friend was worried that_.Athe swans would not help the Canada gooseBshe didnt care about this matter any moreCthe swans wouldnt identify with the Canada gooseDthe swans would peck the Canada goose to death75What did the swans do when they saw the Canada goose couldnt fly?AThey chipped off the ice held in its feathers.BThey waited patiently for the ice held in its feathers to melt.CThey came down and lifted it up to the sky together.DThey stayed with it and protected it. 第三部分: 写作 (共三节, 满分60分) 第一节 单词拼写 （共30小题，每题1分，满分30分） 根据下列各句句意和空白后的汉语提示词，在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确形式，每空一词。76.
