25、Do you want to live a happier, less stressful(有压力的) life? Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how millions of people start their day at Laughter(笑声) Clubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.

The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr. Madan Kataria.“Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr. Kataria. “Everyone is naturally good at laughing—it’s the common language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 in the world.

Many doctors are also interested in the effects(效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.

So what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest, I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking silly. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between real laughter and unreal laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.

Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results.

【1】The first Laughter Club was started in _________.

A. India   B. America

C. Britain   D. China

【2】How many Laughter Clubs are there in the world today?

A. Over 300.   B. Over 500.

C. Over 1,800.   D. Over 1,300.

【3】How did the writer feel at the beginning of the class?

A. Surprised.   B. Pleased.

C. Nervous.   D. Tired.

【4】The article mainly tells us _________.

A. young children laugh much more often than adults in a day

B. laughing is one of the best ways to stay healthy

C. many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health

D. real laughter and unreal laughter are both good for health

26、 When you watch TV and play video games you make global（全球的）warming worse! It may seem hard to believe, but when electricity is made, so are greenhouse gases（温室气体）. This means that every time you use electricity you help make global warming worse!

Cars are also making global warming worse. They burn fossil fuels（化石燃料）in their engines, and send lots of greenhouse gases into the air.2-1-c-n-j-y

Global warming may be a big problem, but we can all help stop it. People can try to drive their cars less. Or even get ones that run on sunlight! You can also help. Let’s try one of these top ideas:

（1）Try to use less electricity. Turn off lights, your television, and your computer when you’ve stopped using them. To make electricity, fossil fuels are burned in big factories. But burning fossil fuels also makes greenhouse gases. You should also try to watch less TV.

（2）Plant trees. Not only is it a fun thing to do, but it is also a great way to lower the number of greenhouse gases in the air. Trees take carbon dioxide out of the air when they grow.

（3）Don’t throw away your rubbish, try to recycle it. If rubbish is not recycled, it is put in the ground. There it rots（腐烂）and makes a greenhouse gas called methane（甲烷）.So try to recycle cans, bottles, plastic bags and newspapers. It’ll make you feel great! And it’ll help the Earth.

【1】 If we ___________, we may make global warming worse.

A. use less electricity   B. drive a car on sunlight

C. plant trees D. throw away rubbish

【2】 We may use more electricity by______.

A. turning off lights B. shutting down computers

C. turning up CD players   D. turning off TV

【3】 ______ will make global warming worse.

A. Methane B. Cans

C. Newspapers   D. Bottles

【4】Which is the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?

A. Driving cars on sunlight helps to stop global warming.

B. When cars burn fossil fuels, they produce greenhouse gases.

C. When trees grow, they send carbon dioxide into the air.

D. By planting more trees, we can lower the number of greenhouse gases in the air.

27、阅读短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。

Some of the greatest problems we face today are the destruction (破坏) of our environment． Brown clouds, polluted water, endangered wild animals．．, these problems seem so huge．

So my family does what we can． We take cloth bags to stores instead of using plastic bags． We walk where we don't have to drive．．．

But does it do any good? When I am the only one in line at the market with cloth bags, am I doing any good? Does my walking to stores make any real difference to the world?

I recently learned something about flamingos (火烈鸟) which like to get together in groups of a thousand or more． Every year, when the time comes for migration (迁徙), a few of them first takeoff from the lake． But none of the others seem to notice, so the small group returns．

However, the next day they try again． This time few more fly along with them, but most of them still pay no attention, so they return again． They try for several times． Every time a few more birds join in but, since the thousands of others still take no notice, the great migration plan is once more stopped．

Then one day something changes． The same small group of birds once again starts flying and a small number more join in just as before, then more． Finally, they all take flight and the migration really begins．

What a spectacular sight it must be—thousands of flamingos taking off into the sky at once!

A few can make a difference． Even if you're the one to take the first step, and continue trying, others will someday take notice and together we will solve even our greatest problems．

【1】Why does the writer use cloth bags in stores?

A．Because he wants to do some good to the environment．

B．Because he thinks plastic bags are more expensive．

C．Because there are only cloth bags in stores．

D．Because all the people use cloth bags in stores．

【2】Why does the small group of flamingos return to the lake?

A．Because they are very tired．

B．Because there are some dangerous animals．

C．Because they can’t find food out there．

D．Because the others don’t fly along with them．

【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A．The writer and his family never walk．

B．Flamingos like to get together in groups of a thousand or more．

C．Brown clouds and polluted water are the only problems we face today．

D．Flamingos never travel to other places every year．

【4】What can we know from Paragraph 3?

A．The writer thinks everyone should do that．

B．There are many ways to solve the problems today．

C．The writer likes flamingos very much．

D．The writer is not sure he is doing the right thing．

【5】What's the writer's purpose of writing this article?

A．To show that the writer loves to see the migration of flamingos．

B．To tell readers to continue trying and it can make a difference．

C．To introduce a special kind of flamingo to readers．

D．To show that there're many problems in the world．

28、   When did you hear about Wi﹣Fi for the first time？ Have you ever asked your relatives or friends【1】 there is Wi﹣Fi in their houses or not？ Have you ever searched【2】free Wi﹣Fi when you are at restaurants or hotels？

The answers will probably be "Yes"．Most of us want Wi﹣Fi everywhere as if we can't live without it．But we can only use free Wi﹣Fi in some 【3】/ 'pʌblɪk / places． We still have to spend some money【4】（connect） the Internet at most time．

Here comes a piece of good news． A rich and 【5】（power） organization called the Media Development Investment Fund （MDIF） has decided to change the  【6】 / eɪdʒ / of online computing completely by giving free Wi﹣Fi to every person on Earth． They will send up hundreds of 【7】（satellite） into space in the near future．

This is 【8】they found that only 60% of the world's population have been able to get【9】 / ɪnfə'meɪʃn / on the Internet， but many countries are still 【10】（able） to offer people the necessary conditions to connect the web．

We can expect to use free Wi﹣Fi everywhere in the near future．
