15、to a tiny apartment off 20th Street. I wrote my first poem sitting in the corner of my bedroom, surrounded by toys. I was 7 or 8 and the poem was for my best friend who had moved away.

After college in Alabama and graduate school in Berkeley, California, I moved to Kentucky to be a newspaper reporter. My skill at writing personal essays landed me my own column(
19、专栏) and the chance to be included in a collection of essays published by Seal Press.Then I came home.In her book Writing Down the Bones, Natalie Goldberg writes, “It is very important to go home if you want your work to be whole.you must claim where you come from and look deep into it. Come to honor
20、 and embrace it, or at the least, accept it.”Now in Birmingham, I get to share my story in local magazines and on my blog.

23、乡或者家人朋友等与自己有关的方面。14. C推理判断题。根据第二段 “As an adult, Id write poems about playing kickball in the parking lot of those Ensley apartment blocks, and poems about trips to see the candy lady and to the corner store.”可知,作为一个成年人,“我”会写诗,有的是关于在Ensley公寓楼街区的停车场踢球,有的是关于去看糖果小姐的旅行和街角的旅行等。由此可以推断出,Ensley是个地名。故选C项。15D主
24、旨大意题。根据第四段 “My skill at writing personal essays landed me my own column(专栏) and the chance to be included in a collection of essays published by Seal Press.”可知,“我”写个人文章的技巧使“我”有了自己的专栏,也让“我”有机会使文章被编入Seal Press出版的散文。由此可以看出,作者在写作上取得了一些成就。故选D项。16C推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It is very important to go home if you want
25、your work to be whole you must claim where you come from and look deep into it. Come to honor and embrace it, or at the least, accept it.”可知:如果想你的作品完整,回家很重要你必须声明你来自哪里,并深入研究它。尊重它,拥抱它,或者至少接受它。由此可以看出,作者提到Natalie Goldberg的话,是为了解释为什么作者要回伯明翰,她的故乡。故选C项。17B主旨大意题。根据文章标题Ensley made me a poet可知,Ensley使“我”成为诗人,
26、而Ensley是作者的故乡;根据倒数第二段“It is very important to go home if you want your work to be whole.”可知,如果想你的作品完整,回家很重要。因此文章在讲“家是你故事的所在”。故选B项。CThere is an old saying in English: “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously.

28、cles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests hav
29、e shown that laughter appears to be capable of reducing the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group, which tolerated the pain for the longest time, was the group, which listened to a funny program.
30、The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins(内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals that diminish both stress and pain.There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immune system, that is, the system which fights infection. In
31、 an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control groupin other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an incr
32、ease in the activity of their blood cells, that is, the cells which fight infection.As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists(精神病学家) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients conditions by encouraging them to laugh. They have f
33、ound that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.()18.

36、故选A项。19B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.”可知,研究发现,笑和体育锻炼的效果相似。故选B项。20D细节理解题。文章提到了笑和体育锻炼的效果相似,排除B项;由第三段中的“Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be capable of reducing the effect of pain on the body(其他试验表明,笑似乎能够减轻疼痛对身体的影响)”可知,排除A项;由第四段中的“There
37、 is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immune system(还有一些证据表明,笑能够改善人体的免疫系统)”可知,排除C项。文中并未提到笑可以治愈癌症。故选D项。第三部分完形填空(15分)As she waited at the edge of the ice for her music to start, Peggy took a quick look at her father standing nearby with a group of parents and teachers.
