16、人物线索(人物的经历、见闻、感受等)、事件线索(中心事件的来龙去脉)、感情线索(作者或作品中主要人物的思想感情变化)、时间线索、地点和空间线索等。作者在叙述过程中往往会融入人物的语言、行为、心理的描写,这在一定程度上增加了考生理解文章的难度。这时,考生必须理清上下文的脉络,对人物的语言、行为、心理等进行合理的想象和推理,并仔细揣摩作者的用意,从而透彻理解文意,达到对语境的准确理解,这样才能作出合理的选择。典例导练 2011江西卷改编 “What a busy day!Babysitting the three boys aged eight,six and four is extremely

28、s scientific subject that researchers are trying to figure out.“Laughter above all else is a social thing,” says Baltimore neuroscientist, Robert Provine, who has studied laughter for decades. “All laughter groups laugh hahaha basically the same way. Whether you speak Mandarin, French or English, ev
29、eryone will understand laughter. There is a pattern generator(发生器) in our brain that produces this sound.”Laughing is our first way of communicating. Babies laugh long before they speak. No one teaches them how to laugh. They just do. People may laugh at a prank(恶作剧) on April Fools Day. But surprisi
30、ngly, only 10 to 15 percent of laughter is the result of someone making a joke. Laughter is mostly about social responses rather than to a joke. Deaf people laugh without hearing and people on cell phones laugh without seeing, showing that laughter isnt dependent on single sense but on social intera
31、ctions.And laughter is not just a thing of people. Chimps tickle(挠痒) each other and even laugh when another chimp pretends to tickle them.Jaak Panksepp, a Bowling Green University Psychology professor, studies rats that laugh when he tickles them. It turns out rats love to be tickledthey return agai
32、n and again to the hands of researchers tickling them.By studying rats, scientists can figure out whats going on in the brain during laughter. Northwestern University biomedical engineering professor, Jeffrey Burgdorf has found that laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant
33、(抗抑郁药). He thinks the same thing probably happens in humans, too. This would give doctors a new chemical target to develop drugs that can fight depression.Even so, laughter itself has not been proved to be the best medicine, experts say. Margaret Stuber, a professor at University of California, stud
34、ied whether laugher helped patients. She found that distraction(分心) and mood improvement helped, but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone.“No study has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit,” Provine said, largely because its hard to separate laughter from just feeling good.
35、 But he thinks it doesnt really matter, “Isnt the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough?”1The most important finding of Robert Provines research is that _Alaughter makes a person feel goodBlaughter depends on different sensesClaughter is a quality people are born withDlaughter is a soc

B.C. D.CP: Central pointP: PointSp: Subpoint(次要点
38、) C: Conclusion【要点综述】“笑”既是人类也是动物的一种交际行为,多数人认为“笑”是治疗身体疾病和心理疾病的有效方式之一。“笑”是否与健康有直接的联系,尚无科学定论,但是,“笑”能使你身心愉悦,这毕竟是一件好事。1A推理判断题。根据最后一段“Isnt the fact that laughter feels good when you do it enough?”可知A项正确。2C事实细节题。根据第六段“laughter in rats produces a chemical that acts as an antidepressant(抗抑郁药)”可知。故C项正确。3B事实细节
39、题。根据第二段“All laughter groups laughhahaha basically the same way.”以及第三段“Laughing is our first way of communicating.”可知,“笑”既是一种交际方式也是一种所有物种都能理解的语言。故B项正确。4D篇章结构题。文章第一节首先提出话题:尽管“笑”被认为是治疗身体疾病和心理疾病的方式之一,但是它仍旧是研究者们试图想弄明白的一个严肃的科研项目;接着文章从两个方面来论述主观点:(1)“笑”是人类的行为:Laughter above all else is a social thingLaughing is our first way of communicating;(2)“笑”也是动物的行为:And laughter is not just a thing of people;最后得出结论:“笑”是否与健康有直接的联系尚无科学定论,但是,“笑”能使人身心愉悦,这毕竟是一件好事。综上可知D项正确。
