    How can we all get more laughter into our lives? Here is what the experts suggest:

    1._________

    Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N.Y. was once painfully shy and she seldom laughed. Then she married a circus clown (小丑). “I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls,“ One day I put on a costume and paint my face. That afternoon my whole life changed. I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.” 2._________ To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.

    3._________

    It doesn’t take you too much time and can be easy. Collect favorite cartoons and jokes. Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life.“Good ideas come and go fast, you have to capture them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper.

    Laugh when you need it most.

    “4._________” says comedian Bill Cosby.“And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it,” he insists.

    Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain—because it comes naturally. 5._________ Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs.

    A. You can soften the worst blows through humor.

    B. Mix with people who laugh.

    C. Practise the art of laughing.

    D. Keep a laughter file.

    E. He who laughs last laughs best.

    F. But it’s also something that has to be developed.

    G. People’s joy can affect those around them.

    More students than ever before are taking a gap-year (间隔年) before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.

    This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).

    That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and complete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.

    But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students(NUS), argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship –young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their

    education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university with up to ￡15,000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said.

    1.What do we learn about the gap year from the text?

    A. It is flexible in length.

    B. It is a time for relaxation.

    C. It is increasingly popular.

    D. It is required by universities.

    2.According to Tony Higgins, students taking a gap year_________.

    A. arc better prepared for college studies

    B. know a lot more about their future jobs

    C. are more likely to leave university in debt

    D. have a better chance to enter top universities

    3.What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?

    A. Attend additional courses.

    B. Make plans for the new term.

    C. Earn money for their education.

    D. Prepare for their graduate studies.

    A month after Hurricane Katrina，I returned home in New Orleans．There lay my house，reduced to waist-high rains，smelly and dirty．Before the trip，I’d had my car fixed．When the office employee of the garage was writing up the bill．she noticed my Louisiana license plate．“You from New Orleans? ”she asked．I said l was，

    “No charge．”She said，and firmly shook her head when I reached for my wallet．The next day I went for a haircut，and the same thing happened．

    A new research of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people．Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression ．The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.

    The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is “loss of self”．According to the study, even though boys would say “lose themselves in a romantic relationship”, this “loss of self” is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls．Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions．They won’t tell that to their parents.

    Dr Marian Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing．Trying romance often causes the depression．She advises kids not to jump into romance too early．During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self．She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.

    Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes —and if they see signs from their daughters or sons, they need to give help．The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age．Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.

    1.Which of the following is more likely to have depression?

    A．Young people who have a strong sense of selfishness.

    B．Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.

    C．Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.

    D．Careless parents whose children are deep in love.

    2.What can be inferred from the passage?

    A．Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.

    B．The older a woman is，the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.

    C．Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.

    D．Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.

    3.What’s the author’s attitude towards puppy love?

    A．Confused．

    B．Disinterested.

    C．Scared．

    D．Disapproving.

    4.What’s the main idea of the passage?

    A．Parents should forbid their children’s love.

    B．Puppy love may bring young people depression.

    C．Romance is a two ? edged sword for adults.

    D．Romance is good for young people.

    In Eastern Europe, blue jeans symbolize (象征) American culture and “the good life”. In Spain they are known as “cowboys”. In China, jeans are known as “niuzaiku”, also, “cowboy trousers”, which means they are connected with the American West cowboy culture and outdoor work.

    Jeans are usually made from denim (粗布), but may also be made from other materials. The earliest known cloth for jeans was a thick cotton cloth from the Indians. At first they were working clothes. They became popular among teenagers in the 1950s. Today jeans are a very popular form of casual wear around the world and come in many styles and colors.

    Jeans were first made in Genoa in Italy. The trousers were made for the Genoese navy (海军) because they needed trousers which could be worn wet or dry, and whose legs could be easily rolled up while the men were cleaning the ships. These jeans would be washed by pulling them in large fishing nets behind the ship, and the sea water would make them white.

    In the 1850s Levi Strauss, a business man living in San Francisco, was selling blue jeans under the “Levi’s” name to the coal workers of California.

    During World War II, the coal workers liked jeans very much because they were strong and did not tear easily. In the 1950s, jeans became popular with young people in the United States. Wearing of blue jeans by teenagers was the symbol of rebels (反叛者) in TV programmes and movies. Some cinemas and restaurants refused to let people in if they wore blue jeans. In the 1980s, jeans finally became high fashion clothing, when famous designers started making their own styles of jeans, with their own labels on them. Sales of jeans went up and up.

    1.From the first paragraph we know that ________.

    A. cowboys wear jeans only

    B. cowboys live a good life

    C. American culture is cowboy culture

    D. cowboy culture is usually related to the West of America

    2.Jeans were first made in ______.

    A. Italy B. America C. Spain D. China

    3.From Paragraph 4 we know that “Levi’s” was ____.

    A. the name of a worker

    B. the brand (名牌) of a kind of jeans

    C. the name of a kind of cloth

    D. the nickname of a businessman

    4.Why the people who wore blue jeans were refused to go into the cinema in the 1950s?

    A. Because jeans were made for workers.

    B. Because jeans were made of denim.

    C. Because it was during the time of war.

    D. Because wearing jeans was the symbol of rebels.
