30、am players.”可知选D。3答案与解析:B推理判断题。由最后一段前两句话可知,如果幽默真的是很重要的,那么为什么我们不在工作中更经常地使用它呢?很可能,主要的原因是很多人不知道工作场所的幽默的积极影响,故选B。4答案与解析:B整篇文章告诉了我们幽默在人们日常生活中所起到的作用,比如可以改善人际关系、提高生产率等,因此说“幽默在工作场所是重要的”这个题目最合适。.七选五【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了幸福和快乐几乎被普遍认为是人类最宝贵的财富之一。然而,关于某些形式的快乐是否比其他形式的好,人们会产生分歧。John Stuart Mill认为快乐的高低是有区别的。以就餐为例,指出

32、sure。故选F“更高的快乐取决于人类的能力,如自我意识或语言使用”。3答案与解析:D上文“The entire debate assumes a clear divide between the physical and the mental.(整个辩论在生理和心理上有明显的分歧)”中the physical and the mental可对应到D选项中the physical and the mental,意为:如果身体和精神不能分开会发生什么?4答案与解析:A根据下文“Food is usually considered to be the lower pleasure.”可知提到了fo
33、od,故可对应到A选项中的dining table。意为:餐桌就是一个分歧很明显的地方。5答案与解析:B根据后文“Preparing it using the powers of reflection and attention turns it into a higher pleasure.(用反思和专注的力量来准备它,会把它变成一种更高的乐趣)”可知狼吞虎咽是一种低级趣味,故选B。.语法填空【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了单口喜剧表演,并且讲述了喜剧对健康的积极作用。1答案与解析:humorous句意为:在观察类喜剧中,喜剧演员会开一些他/她在日常生活中观察到的一些有趣事情的玩笑。
34、分析句子结构可知,此处应填形容词修饰名词things。humour的形容词为humorous,意为“幽默的;搞笑的”。2答案与解析:of此处是说肢体动作类喜剧演员会利用他们的身体来逗乐观众。固定短语make use of意为“利用”。3答案与解析:and分析句子结构可知,该句是由三个并列的句子组成的,设空前后为并列的关系,故填and。不能填while(用于强调两种情况之间的差别)。4答案与解析:which分析句子结构可知,设空处应填which,引导非限制性定语从句,指代空前的impressionist comedians act or speak like a wellknown person

36、:研究单口喜剧和其他形式的喜剧带给人们的影响的医生发现,爱笑的人要比不爱笑的人活得更久一些。分析句子结构可知,本句的谓语是have discovered,因此设空处应用非谓语形式。Doctors是本句的主语,且与research之间为逻辑上的主动关系,应用动词的ing形式作Doctors的后置定语,故填researching。9答案与解析:longer句意见上一题解析。由than可知此处应填long的比较级longer。10答案与解析:saying句意为:这正印证了那句英语谚语“笑是灵丹妙药”。定冠词the后面接名词(短语),故填saying,意为“谚语;名言”。.写作(共两节)第一节:参考范
