Why are some things funny to some people and not to others? How is that while a successful joke can cause plea

12、sure, a sick one can cause serious harm?Over the centuries, various scholars have attempted to produce a universally agreed-upon theory of humor. Plato and Aristotle introduced the superiority(优越感) theory, the idea that people laugh at the misfortune of others. Their theory seems to explain teasing,

13、 but it doesnt work well for knock-knock jokes. Sigmund Freud argued for his relief theory, the concept that humor is a way for people to release psychological tension and reveal their inner fears and desires. His theory works well for dirty jokes, less well for most puns.The majority of humor expel

14、s today agree with the incongruity theory, the idea that humor arises when theres a gap between what people expect to happen and what actually happens. Incongruity has a lot going for it jokes with unexpected funny lines, for example, fit well. But scientists have found that in comedy, unexpectednes

15、s is overvalued.With the goal of developing a new, more satisfactory explanation, I produced “the gentle violation(违背) theory”, the idea that humor arises when something seems wrong or threatening, but is actually OK or safe. A dirty joke, for example, trades on moral or social violations, but its o

16、nly going to get a laugh if the person listening is open enough to consider the subject OK to talk about. Similarly, puns can be seen as linguistic violations that still make grammatical sense.And while most humor theories have struggled to account for tickling (挠痒痒), or just avoided the phenomenon

17、altogether, my theory accounts for even this kind of laughter. Tickling involves violating someones physical space in a gentle way. People cant tickle themselves because it isnt a violation.1、What is the authors attitude towards Plato and Aristotles theory?ACritical.BApproving.CUncaringDUnclear.2、Ac

18、cording to Sigmund Freuds theory, we can infer that _.Apeople will laugh when they see others sufferBtelling dirty jokes is a relief of ones nervous feelingsCunexpectedness can explain how humor worksDtickling doesnt involve psychological tension3、According to the author, why are some things funny t

21、 fact that most people live their lives unremarked by history.

29、non-verbal (非语言的) vocabulary. Each one of these different types of ways of communicating is obviously different between men and women.Many different studies show that men tend to talk much more than women. It has also been proven that women tend to speak faster than men; this is due to the fact that

30、 women tend to be interrupted more often than men are, and also have the ability to speak more clearly, precisely, and more quickly than men. In one study it was found that women spoke for an average of three minutes describing a painting, as opposed to the thirteen-minute average it took men to des

31、cribe it.Men and women also tend to have a very different non-verbal way of communicating, which can also make it very hard for one another to understand what the opposite sex is trying to say. Mens body language is much more reserved when talking to women. Men tend not to make as much eye contact a

32、nd they generally stay farther away from women when talking to them. Men avoid other peoples body space while talking, and they also tend to sit back when talking. All of these have given off the impression of disinterest or boredom. Women are by far better listeners and much more enjoyable to talk

33、with and they tend to raise more topics for conversation.Women also make it clearer whether or not the conversation is going somewhere or just stuck in neutral. After learning about our styles of communicating with each other, I have decided that although men have not quite mastered communicating, w

34、hat fun would it be if we all spoke the same “language”? The little games men and women play with each other while conversing would be lost. The question everyone asks himself or herself after talking with someone of the opposite sex, “I wonder if theres something there?” would no longer exist.1、Wha

35、t does the underlined word “this”in Paragraph 2 refer to?AThe differences between mens and womens languages.BThe different speed of mens and womens speech.CThe ability of mens and womens spoken language.DThe non-verbal vocabulary of men and women.2、In what way do men and women differ according to th

36、e third paragraph?ASpeed of understanding.BUnderstanding of speech roles.CPoliteness of communication.DApplication of body language.3、What is the authors attitude to the differences between mens and womens communication?ACautious.BFavorable.CAmbiguous.DSkeptical.4、What is the best title for the text

37、?AWomen , born excellent talkersBMens and womens social rolesCVocabulary and communicationDOpposite gender, different language24（8分） Have you ever found yourself in this situation: You hear a song you used to sing when you were a child a bit of nostalgia (怀旧) or “blast from the past,” as we say. But

38、 it is not a distant childhood memory. The words come back to you as clearly as when you sang them all those years ago.Researchers at the University of Edinburgh studied the relationship between music and remembering a foreign language. They found that remembering words in a song was the best way to

39、 remember even one of the most difficult languages.Here is what they did. Researchers took 60 adults and randomly divided them into three groups of 20. Then they gave the groups three different types of “listen-and-repeat” learning conditions. Researchers had one group simply speak the words. They h

40、ad the second group speak the words to a rhythm, or beat. And they asked the third group to sing the words.All three groups studied words from the Hungarian language for 15 minutes. Then they took part in a series of language tests to see what they remembered.Why Hungarian, you ask? Researchers said

41、 they chose Hungarian because not many people know the language. It does not share any roots with Germanic or Romance languages, such as Italian or Spanish. After the tests were over, the singers came out on top. The people who learned these new Hungarian words by singing them showed a higher overal

42、l performance. They did the best in four out of five of the tests. They also performed two times better than those who simply learned the words by speaking them.Dr. Katie Overy says singing could lead to new ways to learn a foreign language. The brain likes to remember things when they are contained

43、 in a catchy or memorable tune.Dr. Ludke said the findings could help those who struggle to learn foreign languages. On the University of Edinburghs website Dr. Ludke writes, “This study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat singing method can support foreign language lea

44、rning, and opens the door for future research in this area.”1、The “song” mentioned in the first paragraph is intended to _.Arecall the pastBamuse the readersCintroduce the topicDcompare the past with the present2、According to the passage which language doesnt share the same root with Germanic or Rom

I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family

49、for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee awa

50、y from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I dont only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. Its equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all kno

51、w people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldnt be here. But then I th

52、ought about the fact that hes 84 years old and I realized that I shouldnt give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely bett

53、er because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that Im doing the right thing. Im buying myself peace of m
