The world has never faced so much trouble before. People are        within themselves about natural resources, territories and especially religions. In my opinion, laughter is a universal language, which has the ability to       humanity without religions. Laughter can build a common connection between various religions and create a new world      . The idea may sound over-ambitious, and maybe it is. But maybe it is not. It is our deep       that laughter and only the laughter can unite the world, holding up a       sense of brotherhood and friendship.
Studies also show that laughter helps your body to do the following: lower blood pressure; lighten depression; reduce stress; work out the heart,       for those who are unable to perform       exercise. So in life, when you can laugh, you should laugh loudly and with your entire body—because it’s good for you.

解析试题分析:本文为说明文,文章向我们介绍了“世界大笑日”的功能和重要性。“世界大笑日”诞生于印度,是为世界和平而开展的一项积极的活动。其目的是通过开怀大笑来增进世人之间兄弟般的情谊。如今恐怖分子的袭击遍及全世界,加之其他方面的压力使得人们更加需要“大笑”这门全球通用的语言。
【小题1】C in peace处于和平中;in difficulty处在困境中;at war处在交战中,among challenge
处于挑战中。根据上文说“世界上以前从来没有面临这么多的麻烦”可见“人类为了自然资源、领土、宗教信仰在与人类自己交战。”
【小题2】A unite团结;unfold展开,打开;release释放;handle处理。这儿说的是微笑作为世界通用的语言的功能:它不需要什么宗教信仰就能够把人类团结起来。下文“laughter and only the laughter can unite the world”也可以验证答案。
【小题3】D position位置,地位,职位;ruler尺,直尺,统治者;size大小,尺寸;order命令,秩序,规则,制度,次序。笑声可以在各种宗教宗教信仰之间建立正常的联系,并创建一个新的世界秩序。
【小题4】A belief相信,信念;advice建议;intention意图,目的,意向,意义;plan计划。上文说“这种想法(笑声可以在各种宗教宗教信仰之间建立正常的联系,并创建一个新的世界秩序)听上去也许野心勃勃。也许是这样,但也许不是”。下文接着说“我们坚信笑声也只有笑声才能把世界团结起来……”。
【小题5】D safe安全的;humorous和谐的;common 共同的;global全球的,世界范围的。这儿所说的“……的意识/理念”应该与“安全意识”、“和谐意识”以及“常识”无关。故选D项。坚持世界之内皆兄弟般友谊的理念。
【小题6】C partly部分地;intensively强烈地,集中地;especially特别地;universally普遍地,一般地。上文 “研究表明大笑对于你的身体有下列益处:降低血压,缓解沮丧感,减轻紧张感,锻炼心脏功能”,上文所说的这些应该对“不能参加体育(体力方面的)锻炼的人特别地有益”。
【小题7】C mental精神上的;heart心脏的;physical体力的;morning上午,早晨的。上文 “研究表明大笑对于你的身体有下列益处:降低血压,缓解沮丧感,减轻紧张感,锻炼心功能”,上文所说的这些应该对“不能参加体育(体力方面的)锻炼的人特别地有益”。

I am a person who doesn’t like waiting. I don’t like to wait in line, being put on hold when making a phone call, or arriving at an apartment to find that my companion will be         . And of course, I don’t like waiting rooms.
      , I realize that my agony(痛苦) will not be good for me, as an         crowded world can only mean one thing – more waiting.
       this, I have taken an action and decide to turn my frustration to productive ends. In short, I am looking for what I call “waiting-in-line”        .
These are volumes that contain materials         for being read in shortened words, so there is no extended story line to lose track of. Another          is that they be         enough to slip neatly into my back pocket.
The other day I went to the supermarket.         that the rain would keep most people away, I was         to see that the place was filled with        . Every checkout was open – and jammed! But I can         my pocket book and go to work.
The more the world demands that I        , the more I learn from my waiting library. Look at the followings: One Hundred Things Every American Should Know; The Poetry of Robert Frost; Living Thoughts of Leading Thinkers; Still More Toasts. I have learned interesting and enriching things and much         from these books.
On a recent visit to the general store, I placed my order at the         along with six or seven people. The old female employee seemed to have her hands full as she rushed        . “Young man, just be        ,” she said to me.
No problem. I quietly opened my dictionary prose(散文) and poetical quotations. Perhaps the other customers         me as a bookish, lonely soul. But         did they realize that I was enjoying the         of Shakespeare, Thoreau, Homer and Ben Johnson.

Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced in the meantime.A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can     swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.He can get on a bicycle after several decades and still       away.A mother who has not      the words or years can teach her daughter the poem that begins " Twinkle, twinkle, little star" or        the story of Cinderella or Snow White .
One explanation is the law of over learning, which can be stated as following:        we have learned something, additional learning increases the        of time we will remember it.In childhood, we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding long after we have learned them.We continue to listen to and        ourselves of poems such as "Twinkle.twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella or Snow White.We not only learn but
      
The law of over learning explains why cramming (突击学习) for an examination.      it may result in a passing grade, is not a        way to learn a school course.By cramming, a student may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is       soon to forget almost everything he learned.A little over learning,       , is usually a good investment toward the future.

Recently, we went on a vacation for a week that involved visiting four different ports in the sunny and warm climate of the Caribbean. There were         of laughter, fun and great food. It’s a        thing when you go away that each day of the vacation also        to the end and a return to work.
It was twelve years since we went on a vacation, so this vacation was viewed with        of a great break away from my daily routine. And we weren’t        .
But there was something very different about this vacation compared to those when we worked in a corporative environment. The main       was that when we returned, when the vacation was rapidly drawing to a close, we didn’t have the same feeling of     stress, anxiety and fear.
In this recent vacation, it wasn’t that we        enjoyed the various fun and new activities, the break away from routine, the pleasure of touring different countries and cultures, the         to do what we wanted when we wanted or the leisurely      of each day that was significant. What was significant was that we didn’t       fear the last day of vacation. You see, we know that we were        what we love to do not what we had to do.
The feelings experienced in the last couple of days of vacation were viewed with the same joy as the very first days. In the previous times, the last days of vacation were terrible. We experience an increasing        of stress      we knew that a return to our field of employment was “work” and not        that we loved and thoroughly enjoyed.
The        is this: If you do what you love, it doesn’t matter       that a vacation has to end. If you love what you do you will not        yourself wishing for even a few more days of vacation, or wishing that you could      enjoying this vacation for much, much longer. A love of what you do        you back like a magnet.

All our _______ life, I was the “artist” bringing to our house much imagination. Steve was the”_______” one. He had a real gift for handling chores(家务活),_______ me from unpleasant repair jobs.
