    18．It was reported that a 95-year-old Grandma was refused to be supported by her eight children and was forced to take her own children to court．
           Treating the old well is a traditional virtue in China．For those who don't，it is necessary to read the letter written by a parent：
    Dear son，
           The day that you see me old and I am already not in good health，have patience and try to understand me．
            If  I get dirty when eating，if I can not dress，please have patience and remember the hours I spent teaching it to you．If，when I speak to yo u，I repeat the same things thousand and one times，do not interrupt me，listen to me．When you were small，I had to read to you thousand and one times the same story until you got to sleep．When I do not want to have a shower，neither shame me nor scold me．Remember when I had to chase you with thousand excuses I invented in order that you didn't want to bathe．When you see my knowing little about new technologies，give me the necessary time and do not look at me with your mocking（嘲弄）．I taught you how to do so many things：to eat food，to dress well，to confront life…When at some moment I lose the memory or the thread of our conversation，let me have the necessary time to remember，and if I cannot do it，do not become nervous，as the most important thing is not our conversation but surely to be with you and to have you listening to me．
           If ever I do not want to eat，do not force me．I know well when I need to and when not．When my tired legs do not allow me to walk，give me your hand，the same way I did when you gave your first step．And when someday I say to you that I do not want to live any m ore----that I want to rest forever，do not get angry．Someday you will understand．
           Try to understand that my age is not lived but survived．Some day you will discover that，despite my mistakes，I always wanted the best thing for you and I tried to prepare the way for you．Please be next to me，try to understand me and help me as I did it when you started living．I will pay you by a smile and by the immense love I have had always for you．
       I love you，son．

         Such love，a beautiful love!Such love happened with this tiny creature…What can love do？It can do wonders!Just think about it：one lizard had been feeding the other for 10 long years，without giving up hop e on its partner．If a small creature like a lizard can love like this，just imagine how we can love if we try．

    3．Before I studied psychology，I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred．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 laugh-and 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 crossing streets，everyone laughed their hearts out．The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly．The joke wasn't 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 the 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，then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren't jealous of him．
    In short，we don't 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 of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh．All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person's emotions，he will certainly like it a lot．

    25．What did the author find out after studying psychology？B
    A．Only good jokes make people laugh
    B．Many factors lead to people laughing．
    C．Funny things can make people laugh
    D．Laughter can make people healthy．
    26．Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians？D
    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 show．
    27．What does the underlined word"belittling"probably mean？C
    A．Annoy           B．Blame     
    C．Look down on    D．Make up to
    28．What is the author's attitude towards those who take pleasure in making fun of others？C
    A．defensive        B．indifferent   
    C．negative         D．casual．
