2、riting. His real name was Samuel Langhorne Clemens, but he is better known all over the world as Mark Twain，his pen name. Mark Twain was born in 1835 and he was not a healthy baby. In fact, he was not expected to live through the first winter. But with his mothers care，he managed to survive. As a bo
3、y，he caused much trouble for his parents. He used to play jokes on all his friends and neighbors. He didnt like to go to school, and he often ran away from home.

4、work for a printer, who only provided him with food and clothing. Then，he worked as a printer，a riverboat pilot and later joined the army. But shortly after that he became a miner.

5、arried. In the years that followed he wrote many books including Tom Sawyer in 1876,and Huckleberry Finn in 1884, which made him famous, and brought him great fortune.

9、D. had nothing on BWhen I was a kid, my only interest was watching television. But now, my interestis reading, thanks to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer s Stone, the first book I ever readthat inspiredme to read.This wonderful book pulled me in with its adventure.

10、covers hes a wizard(巫士). After this, his life becomes full ofuncertainty. He starts his new school and makes two best friends. Then Voldemort, theman who killed Harrys parents, comes to steal the stone that will extend his life. Thethree bravely defeat the bad guy. This was a life-changing book for
11、me. After finishingit, I really started to enjoy reading. Ever since then, I dont ever put a book downbefore Im finished with it.When I read a book, it inspires me and shows me a different world. It makes meexcited. When I read, I never get bored. Books can also change my state of mind.Regardless of
12、whether Im angry, depressed, or stressed, a book will make me happy.Books took me out of my comfort zone.

16、k that people would laugh when funny things occurred（发生）. 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 laug
17、hand 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（行人） crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them
18、felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasnt only funny, 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 t
19、he 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,
20、then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous（妒忌的） 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 making fun
21、 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.29.What did the author find out after studying psychology?A. Only good jokes make people laugh B. Many factors lead to people laughing.
22、 C. Funny things can make people laugh D. Laughter can make people healthy.30. 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
23、show.31. What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean? A. Annoy B. Blame C. Look down on D. Make up to32. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?DAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations cha
24、nge. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because
25、 friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families. Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their
26、 hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they dont show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country wh
27、ere we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to
28、do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treat
29、ed hospitably. For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home! 33. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Friendships between
30、Americans usually extend deeply into their families. B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives. C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy. D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break. 34. The underlined words “generous wit
31、h our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean _. A. strict with time B. serious with time C. careful with time D. willing to spend time 35. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “_”. A. Friendships between Chinese B. Friendships between Americans C. Americans hospitality D. Americans and Ch
