When I was running to his bed, I saw a piece of wood coming down and I placed myself over him trying to protect him. I was senseless (无知觉的), but luckily, the fireman came in and saved both of us.” She touched the scar on her face. “This scar will be lasting, but to this day, I have never regretted what I did.”

25、 It's no secret that laughter works wonders for us. And much research has been carried out, which shows that laughter is good for our general health and well-being. It has been found to release endorphins (释放安多芬), our bodies’ natural “feel-good” chemicals, into our blood. But as we grow older, we are more likely to find fewer things funny. A child will laugh on average 300 times a day. By the time we reach adulthood, his number is around 20. But what’s behind this? One theory suggests that it’s not a problem of losing our sense of humor but rather, as we grow older, we take things a bit more seriously.
Laughter is very much something we do with others. Studies have shown that we are 30 times more likely to find something funny when we are with others than when we are by ourselves. But to laugh with others, we do need to feel a connection to them. We need to feel comfortable in their company. That's why it can be difficult to laugh with strangers. Laughter is also very contagious and one person's laugh can spread quickly through out a group of people. But often what makes us join in is the fear of standing out and being different. We laugh, even if we don't' really get the joke, specially in groups controlled by a powerful person. When the head teacher ells a joke, for example, you laugh, even though later you might wonder if the joke was really that funny at all.
There are many different reasons why we laugh. Here are three widely accepted theories:
The Incongruity Theory: It's often the unexpected that makes us laugh. When things that we are familiar with suddenly take a turn into the unknown, our expectations are challenged and that often results in laughter.
The Superiority Theory: We often find the mistakes and misfortunes of others funny. This would explain the popularity of online videos showing pranks (恶作剧).
The Relief Theory: Laugh offers light relief. It explains why there are so many jokes about the darker things in life. By being able to laugh at them, we are able to face them more easily.
【1】According to the theory in Paragraph 1, why do we laugh less as we grow older?
A.There are fewer funny things. B.We take things more seriously.
C.Our body releases less endorphins. D.We gradually lose our sense of humor.
【2】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?
A.More funny things happen when we are with others.
B.People feel comfortable in strangers' company.
C.We laugh sometimes because of social needs.
D.Powerful people are more likely to be funny.
【3】What does the underlined word “contagious” probably mean?
A.有感染力的 B.有区别的 C.令人害怕的 D.令人舒适的
【4】Which of the following statement is TRUE?
A.Something familiar is easy to make people laugh.
B.There are only 3 theories about the reasons why we laugh.
C.Every child laughs 300 times and an adult laughs 20 times a day.
D.The Superiority Theory can explain why people love making funny videos.
【5】What is the passage mainly about?
A.The art of laughter. B.The sign of laughter.
C.The power of laughter. D.The science of laughter.
26、Many years ago, an enemy army came north from England to make war on Scotland. The Scots, a brave people, loved their country very much. They fought hard to drive the enemy(敌人) out of Scotland. But the enemy was very strong. It seemed that the enemy would win.
One night, the leader of Scots led his men to the top of a hill. “We will rest here tonight,” he said, “Tomorrow we will fight again. We must win or we will die.”
They were all tired so they ate their supper quickly and fell asleep. There were four guards on duty, but they too, were very tired, and one by one they also fell asleep.

How quickly can you count from one to ten?Do you use ten different words to do it?Can you do it in English,or do you have to use your first?language?Do you count on your fingers?Many
people think that numbers and math are the same all over the world.But scientists have discovered that it is not true.
People in different parts of the world use different ways to count on their fingers.In the United States,people begin counting with their first finger,which they extend or stick out.They then extend the rest of their fingers and finally the thumb(拇指)to count to five.Then they repeat this with the other hand to get to ten.In China,people count by using different finger positions.In this way,a Chinese person can easily count to ten on only one hand.
Besides ways of finger counting,scientists have found that cultures and languages are also different when it comes to numbers.Some languages have only a few words for numbers,and others have no words for numbers.A group of scientists studied aboriginal(土著的)people in Australia.There people don’t have hand movements to stand for numbers.They don’t even have words for numbers.However,they are still able to understand different ideas about numbers.
In a similar study,researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology discovered that people of the Piraha tribe(部落)in northwestern Brazil don’t have words for numbers such as“one”or“three”.They are not able to say“five trees”or“ten trees”but can say“some trees”.“more trees”.or“many trees”.Professor Edward Gibson said that most people believe that everyone knows how to count,“but here is a group that does not count.They could learn,but it’s not useful in their culture,so they’ve never picked it up.”
Although all humans are able to understand quantities(数量),not all languages have numbers and not all people use counting.Number words in a certain language are a result of people needing numbers in their daily lives.Now we know that people have different ideas about numbers and math,too.
【1】The writer begins with the four questions in order to________.

【4】The study of the Piraha tribe shows that________.
A.people all over the world know how to count
B.people of the tribe have words for numbers
C.some groups of people are not smart enough to count

B.Chinese people can count more easily on their fingers than Americans.
C.In some aboriginal cultures,people don’t even know how to count.
D.Some languages don’t have number words because people don’t need numbers.
