Hi Susan,

I’m sorry that I wasn’t able to return to your bike on time yesterday. I mean to give it back to you before four in the afternoon, and I was held up on my way back. Just before I turned corner of Park Street, I happened to seeing an accident. A little girl was hurt and his mother needed help. So I helped them going to the nearest hospital. I stayed here for one and a half hour and made sure that the girl was safely. When I got back, it was already 6 p.m. I hope you understand.

Thank you! Yours,

阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项.

We have seen that humor and laughter positively influence our body in many ways, but little research has been done on whether a better sense of humor actually helps keep you from getting sick. However, since people with a better sense of humor have higher IgA levels, and since research has shown that those with higher levels of salivary(唾液的) IgA are less likely to get colds or be infected with Streptococcus, humor should reduce the frequency of colds.

The only study to directly examine this question found that the impact of one’s sense of humor upon colds depends on the kind of sense of humor you have. It was only individuals whose sense of humor took the form of seeking out and appreciating humor who had fewer and less severe colds/flu than their low humor counterparts. Surprisingly, those whose sense of humor took the form of initiating humor more often did not have fewer or less severe colds/flu. The researchers argued that being a person who likes to tell jokes or otherwise initiate humor takes them into more frequent contact with other people, which serves to expose them to infectious agents more often, robbing them of the advantage that a more active sense of humor otherwise offers. Obviously, more research is required to clear up this confusing picture.

The importance of active use of one’s sense of humor in producing humor’s health benefits was confirmed in another study in an unusual way. It found that among a group of mothers with newborn infants, those who actively used humor to cope with the stress in their lives had fewer upper respiratory infections and their infants also had fewer infections. This seemed to be because these mothers had higher levels of immunoglobulin A (免疫球蛋白A) in their breast milk.

Among adults, if we look at bodily symptoms alone, independent of any diagnosed illness, there is some evidence that individuals who have more negative reactions to humor report more bodily symptoms and complaints. Students complaining of cardiovascular(心脏血管的) symptoms and gastroenterological (肠胃病的) symptoms also have been shown to have this more negative reaction to humor.

1.What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. People with a good sense of humor get sick less often.

B. Humor can reduce the frequency of colds / flu.

C. Any form of humor can prevent people from getting sick.

D. Humor can treat illness.

2.According to the passage, IgA is _______.

A. a medicine B. enzyme

C. factor D. measure

3.Why do newborn infants whose mothers use humor to deal with stress have fewer infections?

A. Because they don't often get upper respiratory infections.

B. Because they are stronger since they were born.

C. Possibly because of the higher levels of immunoglobulin A in their breast milk.

D. Because their mothers take better care of them.

4.Students with some bad bodily symptoms show ___________ towards humor.

A. a positive attitude B. a negative attitude

C. a neutral attitude D. an unclear attitude

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (镜像神经元) in our brains.

Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains copy it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, dance or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that there is biological basis for the way we understand other people.

Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages, and to understand how other people feel. Researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to (for example: The hand took hold of the ball), the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball).

Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders.

Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever more information concerning how humans behave and communicate. Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was for physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does—well, perhaps you’ll understand why.

1.Mirror neurons can explain _________.

A. why we cry when we are hurt

B. why we cough when we suffer from a cold

C. why we smile when we see someone else smile

D. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late

2.The underlined word “triggered” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_________”.

A. broken up B. set off

C. built up D. cut off

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE about mirror neurons?

A. They result in bad behavior and social disorders

B. They control human physical actions and feelings

C. They determine our knowledge and language abilities

D. They relate to human behavior and communication

4.What is the passage mainly about?

A. Existence of mirror neurons.

B. Functions of mirror neurons.

C. Ways to find mirror neurons.

D. Problems of mirror neurons.
