Unit 1Laughter is good for you能力提升題組訓(xùn)練.閱讀理解(2018江西贛中高三聯(lián)考)Before I studied psychology,I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred.While I was right about that,I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke.When someone laughs at a joke,there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laughand the more reasons there are,the more powerful the joke will be.I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt,and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets,everyone laughed their heads off.The main reason why those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly.The joke wasnt only funny,but it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians.That is,people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.The better a joke makes a person feel,and the more it includes other psychological factors,the more the person will like it.For example,if you envy one of your friends,and someone tells a joke that is funny and,at the same time,makes your friend seem stupid,then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.In short,we dont laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke.I strongly discourage you from making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh.All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a persons emotions,he will certainly like it a lot.1.What did the author find out after studying psychology?A.Only good jokes make people laugh.B.Many factors lead to peoples laughing.C.Funny things can make people laugh.D.Laughter can make people healthy.2.Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?A.They played a trick on the pedestrians.B.The pedestrians behaved in a funny way.C.They could feel the pedestrians happiness.D.Their emotion was approved of by the show.3.What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean?A.Annoy. B.Blame. C.Look down on. D.Make up to.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇議論文,分析了人們笑的原因。答案及剖析:1.B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段第二句話(huà)可知,不僅是玩笑有意思的地方讓人笑,除此以外還有很多其他心理因素能讓人笑。2.D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句可知,人們對(duì)行人的行為大笑的原因不僅是因?yàn)橥嫘Ρ旧?而且因?yàn)樗麄冊(cè)谛睦砩袭a(chǎn)生了共鳴。3.C詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)最后一段倒數(shù)第二句及語(yǔ)境可知,make fun of和belittle表達(dá)的意義應(yīng)該是在相近的層面,結(jié)合選項(xiàng)annoy“使惱怒”;blame“責(zé)備”;look down on “蔑視,看輕”;make up to“接近,奉承”。可知,C項(xiàng)符合語(yǔ)境。.七選五Secret codes (密碼)keep messages private.Banks,companies,and government agencies use secret codes in doing business,especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years.1. Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making.The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.There are three main types of cryptography.2. For example,the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels”spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”3. You might represent each letter with a number,for example.Lets number the letters of the alphabet,in order,from 1 to 26.If we substitute a number for each letter,the message “Meet me”would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”A code uses symbols to replace words,phrases,or sentences.To read the message of a real code,you must have a code book.4. For example,“bridge”might stand for “meet”and “out”might stand for “me.”The message “Bridge out”would actually mean “Meet me.”5. However,it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long.So codes must be changed frequently.A.It is very hard to break a code without the code book.B.In any language,some letters are used more than others.C.Only people who know the keyword can read the message.D.As long as there have been codes,people have tried to break them.E.You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out.F.With a code book,you might write down words that would stand for other words.G.Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.答案:1-5DEGFA.完形填空When I was fourteen I found Rocky.That spring day,I was catching fish with my grandfather when I 1the faint(微弱的) crying and found the trembling wolf cub(小狼).As I bent down,he moved 2toward me.Little Rocky gained 3after I fed a few drops of warm milk to him.Soon he was 4and warm.My grandfather finally agreed to let me 5him.That summer Rocky and I became 6partners.We hunted the grasshoppers.And in the fall,we went to the nearest meadows(草地) 7field mice.The winter months were the happiest I could 8.Often we would make a fire in the bushes.Rocky would 9his head between his front paws,with his eyes on me 10I told him stories.All the pleasure made me forget my Grandpas repeated11,and one night I left Rocky unchained.The following morning I was told Rocky had 12a rooster.My grandpa decided to return Rocky to nature,but it was 13for me to lose him.For the next two years I was very busy,but I would14wonder if Rocky remembered me.Easter came early that year and during the holidays I went to 15my cousins.On my way home,it began to snow heavily.I had to 16for the night in the forest and hoped that by morning the storm would have 17.The next day I realized the storm was even 18.Unfortunately,I found two wolves waiting to attack me.Then I heard a 19to my side and turned my head.It was Rocky,and he had driven off the others.I cried and hugged him 20.At last I was saved.1.A.feltB.made C.performed D.heard2.A.stronglyB.quickly C.weakly D.happily3.A.strengthB.time C.trust D.support4.A.tired B.full C.hungry D.nervous5.A.watch B.keep C.observeD.notice6.A.hunting B.fishingC.drivingD.riding7.A.in charge of B.in case of C.in search of D.in control of8.A.choose B.see C.wish D.remember9.A.lie B.lay C.scratchD.shake10.A.before B.after C.becauseD.as11.A.storiesB.warnings C.sayingsD.promises12.A.kicked B.treasured C.beatenD.killed13.A.hard B.easy C.nice D.useful14.A.yet B.already C.still D.never15.A.carry B.visit C.move D.adopt16.A.spend B.waste C.stand D.camp17.A.continued B.remained C.stopped D.frozen18.A.more B.worse C.stricter D.sharper19.A.noise B.cry C.shout D.sob20.A.officially B.regularly C.disappointedly D.tightly語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是記敘文,講述了在某一年的春天,作者和爺爺釣魚(yú)的時(shí)候,救了一只小狼,作者叫它Little Rocky。從此他們之間開(kāi)始了一段感人的故事。答案及剖析:1.D根據(jù)后面的“the faint(微弱的) crying”可知,此處指作者聽(tīng)到了微弱的叫聲。故選D。2.C根據(jù)前面的“the faint(微弱的) crying”和后面的“after I fed a few drops of warm milk to him”可知,Little Rocky這時(shí)候很虛弱,有氣無(wú)力。故選C。3.A根據(jù)后面的“after I fed a few drops of warm milk to him”可知,Little Rocky吃完?yáng)|西后有了力量。故選A。4.B此處指Little Rocky很快就吃飽了。身體也暖和起來(lái)了。故選B。5.B根據(jù)后面的“That summer Rocky and I became partners.”以及后面的描述可知,爺爺同意作者留下飼養(yǎng)Little Rocky。故選B。6.A根據(jù)后面的“We hunted the grasshoppers.”可知,作者和Little Rocky 成為了共同狩獵的伙伴。故選A。7.C此處指“我們”一起到草地去尋找田鼠。 in search
