Now, however, doctors havebegun to study laughter and the effects (作用)it has on the human body. They have found evidence that laughter really canimprove peoples health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on thebody. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, bloodpressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effectsto physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rateof breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomachand even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be helpful.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to make the effect ofpain on the body less. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups ofstudents who listened to different radio programs. The group which could bearthe pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.The reason why laughter can make pain less seems to be that it helps to produceendorphins (内啡肽)in the brain. These are natural chemicals which make both stress and pain less.There isalso some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immunesystem that is the system which fights infection (感染).In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while anothergroup served as the control group in other words, a group with which tocompare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in bothgroups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had anincrease in the activity of their white blood cells the cells which fightinfection.As a result ofthese discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病专家)in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improvetheir patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found thateven if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile isenough to produce good effects similar to those caused by laughter.（1）We learn from the first paragraph that laughter _. A . is good for ones healthB . has strong effects to do with some illnessesC . has been studied for a long timeD . has no effect on the body（2）Doctors have found that laughter _. A . keeps down blood pressureB . has similar effects to physical exerciseC . decreases the heart rateD . increases stress and pain（3）Which of the following statements is NOT true of laughter according to the passage? A . It makes pain less.B . It exercises the body.C . It improves the bodys immune system.D . It can cure（治愈）cancer.（4）Smiling can produce _.A . about the same effects as laughterB . more effects than laughterC . fewer effects on the human bodyD . no effects on the human body六、 阅读表达 (共1题；共4分)32. （4分）任务型阅读USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in? We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students._Its true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs._Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.Students must also learn to live without parents care and deal with all kinds of things they havent had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily._Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China._Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal(金牌) at the Athens Olympics. So when you wonder which country is better to study in, consider whether studying abroad is the right choice(选择).A. Liu Xiang is a good example.B. They want to learn about the world.C. Lets talk about some foreign customs.D. But there are problems that should be considered(考虑).E. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.七、 任务型阅读 (共1题；共4分)33. （4分）阅读下文并回答问题。Some people seem to have extraordinary (非凡的）memories. Zheng Aiqiang, a “memory athlete” on TV show Super Brain, can remember 2,660 numbers in just one hour!You would think people like this have special brains. But according to a recent study by researchers from the US and the Netherlands, the brain structures（结构）of ordinary people and 23 of the worlds leading memory athletes show no difference.Thats because good memories can be trained. New research in the journal Neuron (神经元期刊) suggests that you can become a super memorizer with just six weeks of hard training.Researchers found that technique (技巧）called loci, invented by ancient Greeks, can greatly help improve memory. By using loci, you are using your imagination to improve the brains memory networks. You can link（关联）something you need to remember with a place that you know very well. For example, to remember a list of numbers, imagine yourself walking through your house. Each thing is linked to a number. For example, zero could be handle（把手）on the door and five could be the painting on the wall.In one study, some ordinary people were given 20 minutes to remember 72 words. First they could only remember 26 of them. But when they were taught loci, they could remember 62 words.“Not everyone can become a memory champion. But everyone using the technique can improve a lot from the level theyre at,” said Boris Konrad, one of the researchers in the study.（1）Is Super Brain a TV show?_（2）Who was loci invented by?_（3）How can you remember more words in twenty minutes according to Paragraph 5?_（4）Is loci helpful to you? Why or why not?_八、 词汇运用 (共2题；共16分)34. （7分）根据音标或汉语提示完成句子。（1）As a result, their performance was _. / sksesfl/（2）He _swim when he was five. （能够）（3）I _listening. （在做得不好）35. （9分）B)根据句意及括号内所给单词的提示填空。（1）Look!The three_(giraffe)are coming（2）MrSmith_(write)a book these months（3）Mike has no much time for lunch,so he always eats_(quick)（4）My sister_(practice)the piano for an hour every day（5）There are many (kind) of animals in this zoo九、 短文填空 (共1题；共10分)36. （10分）根据对话内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使对话完整。（每空一词）What do you do at weekends?
