A good joke can be the hardest thing to understand when studying a foreign language. As a recent article in The Guardian newspaper noted, “There’s more to understanding a joke in a foreign language than understanding vocabulary and grammar.”
Being able to understand local jokes is often seen as an unbelievable ice-breaker for a language learner eager to form friendships with native speakers. “I always felt that humor was a ceiling that I could never break through,” Hannah Ashley, a public relations account manager in London, who once studied Spanish in Madrid, told The Guardian, “I could never speak to people on the same level as I would speak to a native English speaker. I almost came across as quite a boring person because all I could talk about was facts.”
In fact, most of the time, jokes are only funny for people who share a cultural background or understand humor in the same way. Chinese-American comedian Joe Wong found this out first-hand. He had achieved huge success in the US, but when he returned to China in 2008 for his first live show in Beijing, he discovered that people didn’t think his. Chinese jokes were as funny as his English ones.
In Australia, meanwhile many foreigners find understanding jokes about sports to be the biggest headache. “The hardest jokes are related to rugby because I know nothing about rugby,” said Melody Cao, who was once a student in Australia. “When I heard jokes I didn’t get, I just laughed along.”
In the other two major English-speaking countries, the sense of humor is also different. British comedian Simon Pegg believes that while British people use irony (反话)—basically, saying something they don’t mean to make a joke—every day, people in the US don’t see the point of using it so often. “British jokes tend to be more subtle and dark, while American jokes are more obvious with their meanings, a bit like Americans themselves,” he wrote in The Guardian.
【题文1】It is implied in the noted sentence in Paragraph 1 that ________.
A. making jokes is a possible way for one to learn better a foreign language
B. humor is always conveyed to foreigners through vocabulary and grammar
C. vocabulary and grammar help you understand jokes in a foreign language
D. there tends to be something behind the words of a joke in a foreign language
【题文2】What can we guess about Hannah Ashley?
A. She thinks that Spanish people generally do not have much of a sense of humor.
B. She believes that one had better rely on facts when speaking a foreign language.
C. She found that humor was a barrier to her getting along well with Spanish people.
D. She had a better command of the Spanish language than of the English language.
【小题3】Joe Wong is used as an example to ________.
A. suggest that there are cultural differences in humor
B. show that it’s hard to put jokes into another language
C. prove that local people have different taste in humor
D. show that expressing ability affects the sense of humor
【小题4】From the article we can learn that ________.
A. jokes about sports are difficult for foreigners to understand
B. Americans are generally more humorous than British people
C. not all English native speakers can understand English jokes easily
D. British people’s dark jokes often make people uncomfortable

“Beating is a sign of affection, cursing (骂)is a sign of love.”
Many may not expect to hear the words of the old Chinese saying in these modern Times—
with parents wealthier and better educated than they have ever been—but experts say they still
ring true.
Today,it seems,Chinese parents are more likely to send their children to pre?college military
academies in the United States in the hope that some tough love will pave the way to success.
“Good education doesn't mean letting your children enjoy privileges, especially our boys.”
said Song Wenming,an entrepreneur (企业家)in Jinhua,East China's Zhejiang province. “They should be raised in tough conditions to know what to fight for in the future.”
In August,Song sent his 17?year?old son to Valley Forge Military Academy (VFMA) in
Pennsylvania. And he is far from alone,even though it takes a lot of money—around $48,000 per year—to send a child to a strict military school.
Statistics show that an increasing number of Chinese students have been registering with such academies.
A few years ago, there were no Chinese students at Valley Forge. Today,there are 28.“All of the Chinese students at Valley Forge came from wealthy families;some of them were spoiled.” said Jennifer Myers, director of marketing and communications at the school.
Song's only son, Song Siyu, had a rocky start during his first six weeks at the school. The
teenager said he went to the school voluntarily but did not expect it to be as difficult.
Now, three months later, he has perfected the art of taking a bath in 35 seconds, finishing a
meal without looking at his food, and making his bed with precision. He can even take criticism,no matter how unreasonable.
“The training is hard but I know it is good for self?development of individuals.” said SongSiyu.
“The endless training and scolding are just ways to build up our character;they are not personal.”
But his enthusiasm is not universal. Ten of the 13 Chinese students who joined the academy
this year have transferred to other schools.
But for those who stick to it, there is a reward for all the hard work.
1.From the second paragraph,we can know the old Chinese saying _____________ .
A. is out of date in modern times
B. is disagreed by rich parents
C. is still worth trusting
D.is deeply believed by better educated parents
2.The underlined sentence means that _____________.
A.Song sent his only son to military school,so he feels lonely
B.Song is the only one who sends his child to military school
C.there are other people sending their children to military school besides Song
D.the fee of the military school is so high that only Song can afford it
3.How many Chinese students are there at Valley Forge before this year?
A.10. B. 13. C.15. D.25.
4.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A.It's likely that more and more Chinese students will attend VFMA.
B.Most Chinese parents approve of educating their children by beating and cursing nowadays.
C.Song Siyu had no difficulty in adjusting to the life at VFMA.
D.Most Chinese students support the way of education at VFMA.
