    What is it that makes people laugh? More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle defined (定义) jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by showing we’re better than someone else in a certain way. According to Aristotle and many other philosophers, all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons--that is, putting it clearly, on showing that they are worse off than ourselves. Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone else’s expense.

    Showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes. Someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us. We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a banana skin. The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society. This is probably the reason why some of the jokes, especially those involving cruelty, are so popular with certain people.

    Besides, all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it’s different from things which are happening around it. The same situation can be either sad or pleasant, depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is. If a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool, we don’t laugh because nothing unusual has happened. But if a man in a smart suit falls in, the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh. A good joke?teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens, and so we laugh.

    1.According to Aristotle, all jokes depend mainly on________.

    A. showing inferiority in another person or group

    B. resulting in a sense of success

    C. having a good opinion of other people

    D. making people laugh unexpectedly

    2.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?

    A. Showing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes.

    B. When people are angry, they would like to hear jokes.

    C. People who like jokes are usually cruel.

    D. To express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we like jokes.

    3.What will a good joke?teller always try to do?

    A. Make a sad situation into a pleasant one.

    B. Make different things happen at the same time.

    C. Make an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation.

    D. Make people laugh at something unusual and out of place.

    Too much TV-watching can harm children’s ability to learn and even reduce their chances of getting a college degree, new studies suggest in the latest effort to examine the effects of television on children.

    One of the studies looked at nearly 400 northern California third-graders. Those with TVs in their bedrooms scored about eight points lower on math and language arts tests than children without bedroom TVs.

    A second study, looking at nearly 1000 grown-ups in New Zealand, found lower education levels among 26-year-olds who had watched lots of TV during childhood. But the results don’t prove that TV is the cause and don't rule out that already poorly motivated youngsters(年轻人）may watch lots of TV.

    Their study measured the TV habits of 26-year-olds between ages5 and 15. These with college degrees had watched an average of less than two hours of TV per weeknight during childhood, compared with an average of more than 2 1/2 hours for those who had no education beyond high school

    In the California study, children with TVs in their rooms but no computer at home scored the lowest while those with no bedroom TV but who had home computers scored the highest

    While this study does not prove that bedroom TV sets caused the lower scores, it adds to accumulating findings that children shouldn't have TVs in their bedrooms

    1.According to the California study, the low-scoring group might_____

    A. have watched a lot of TV

    B. not be interested in math

    C. be unable to go to college

    D. have had computers in their bedrooms

    2.What is the researchers' understanding of the New Zealand study results?

    A. Poorly motivated 26-year-olds watch more TV.

    B. Habits of TV watching reduce learning interest

    C. TV watching leads to lower education levels of the 15-year-olds.

    D. The connection between TV and education levels is difficult to explain

    3.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?

    A. More time should be spent on computers.

    B. Children should be forbidden from watching TV.

    C. 'IV sets shouldn't be allowed in children's bedrooms,

    D. Further studies on high-achieving students should be done

    4.What would be the best title for this text?

    A. Computers or Television

    B Effects of Television on Children

    C. Studies on TV and College Education

    D. Television and Children's Learning Habits
