‎2020届一轮复习译林版选修六Unit1Laughter is good for you 单元学案设计 ‎ 单元阅读练习 Studies show that laughter is something that makes you feel calm or relaxed for both physical and psychological wounds though it may seem futile to laugh in the face of pain and fear.‎ When Dan Rather interviewed comedian Bill Cosby just one week after his son，Ennis，was killed，Cosby said，“I think it is time for me to tell people that we have to laugh. You can turn painful situations around through laughter. If you can find humor in anything，you can survive it.”‎ Call it a flashlight for dark times：laughter just seems to adjust the attitude better than anything else. Inspirational speaker Steve Rizzo recalls a TV interview with an injured firefighter a few days after 9•11.The man had fallen more than 30 stories in one of the towers and had broken a leg. Everyone was crying，and the reporter asked，“How is it that you’ve come out of this alive？” He looked at her and without missing a beat，said，“Look，lady，I’m from New York and I’m a firefighter；that’s all you need to know.”‎ ‎“Everyone laughed though the laughter was only a couple of seconds，” says Rizzo.“Sometimes that’s all you need to catch your second breath. Laughter gives you that couple of seconds. You’re sending a message to your brain，and the message is：If you can still laugh even a little among the pain，you are going to be OK.”‎ Of course，there is a difference between laughing off a serious situation and laughing off the fear that results.The firefighter was doing the latter，states Rizzo，the author of Becoming a Humor Being，and so should we.“If there is anything we have learnt from 9•11，it’s how precious life really is，” Rizzo says.“We have to send a message that our spirit won’t die. One important thing that unites us is our ability to laugh.”‎ 阅读短文，判断正(T)误(F)‎ ‎1．The writer uses the examples of the comedian and the firefighter to show laughter is a good way to get rid of pain and fear.(T)‎ ‎2．We can infer from the passage that Steve Rizzo is a soldier.(F)‎ ‎3．The underlined word “futile” in the first paragraph means “useless”．(T)‎ ‎4．From the passage，we can know that Americans are really inspired after 9•11.(F)‎ Period One　Welcome to the unit & Reading—Pre-reading ‎ ‎ 匹配左边的单词与右边的汉语意思 ‎[第一组]‎ ‎1．weekly　　　　 A．(同一事物)不同种类；多种样式 ‎2．stage B．取笑；揶揄；戏弄 ‎3．tease C．每周的 ‎4．previous D．先前的，以往的 ‎5．variety E．舞台；阶段，时期 答案　1.C　2.E　3.B　4.D　5.A ‎[第二组]‎ ‎6．comedy A．单口喜剧 ‎7．stand-up B．风格；方式；样式 ‎8．style C．表现 ‎9．behave D．喜剧 ‎10．visual E．视觉的 答案　6.D　7.A　8.B　9.C　10.E ‎[第三组]‎ ‎11．hammer A．喜爱，钟爱 ‎12．trip B．表演，演出；表现，业绩 ‎13．performance C．技术的；技能的 ‎14．affection D．绊，(使)绊倒 ‎15．technical E．敲，捶打 答案　11.E　12.D　13.B　14.A　15.C ‎[第四组]‎ ‎16．perform A．逗笑，逗乐；提供(消遣)，(使)娱乐 ‎17．little-known B．大叫，嚎叫 ‎18．howl C．哀悼，忧伤 ‎19．amuse D．鲜为人知的 ‎20．mourn E．演出，表演；做，履行；工作，运转 答案　16.E　17.D　18.B　19.A　20.C ‎ ‎ Step 1　Fastreading ‎1．What’s the main idea of the passage?‎ A．What is stand-up and why people love it.‎ B．People are always enjoying laughing.‎ C．The comedian tells us a humorous story.‎ D．The importance of laughter.‎ 答案　A ‎2．What’s the author’s main purpose by writing this passage?‎ A．To introduce stand-up comedy to us.‎ B．To make us know about famous comedians like Bob Hope and George Burns.‎ C．To tell people that laughter is the best medicine.‎ D．To help us learn how to perform stand-up comedy.‎ 答案　C Step 2　Carefulreading ‎1．How many types of stand-up are mentioned in the text?‎ A．One.

writer.He was from the USA.He was born in 1835.He was also a famous speaker.He was famous for his sense of humour.Many people liked to listen to him talking because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time.‎ One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing.Before he was going to leave，one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes in the town and told him that he’d better not go there.Mark Twain waved(摇动) his hand and said，“It doesn’t matter.The mosquitoes are no relatives of mine.I don’t think they will come to visit me.”‎ After he arrived at the town，Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station.He went into his room，but when he was just about to have a rest，quite a few mosquitoes flew about him.The waiters felt very sorry about that.“I’m very sorry，Mr Mark Twain.There are too many mosquitoes in our town，” one of them said to him.‎ Mark Twain，however，made a joke，saying to the waiter，“The mosquitoes are very clever.They know my room number.They didn’t come into the wrong room.” What he said made all the people present laugh heartily.‎ But that night Mark Twain slept well.Do you know why？That was because all the waiters in the hotel were driving the mosquitoes away for him during the whole night.‎ 语篇解读　本文介绍了马克•吐温到一个小镇住旅馆时发生的趣事。‎ ‎1．That day Mark Twain went to the town .‎ A．to see one of his friends B．because he was told there were a lot of mosquitoes there C．because he wanted to do something there for his writing D．to see one of his relatives 答案　C 解析　细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“One day

clean D．there were quite a few mosquitoes in Mark Twain’s room 答案　D 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段第二、三句“He went into his room，but when he was just about to have a rest，quite a few mosquitoes flew about him.The

time，men used pocket watches.The first men’s wrist watch was available in 1904.A pilot called Alberto Santos-Dumont personally asked a watchmaker to create a wrist watch to use on flights.Soon after that，men’s wrist watches were available on the market.Since then，watches have been considered fashionable accessories(配饰) for men，and watchmakers have started to make men’s fashion watches.‎ At present，watches are not indispensable to tell the time for most people have cell phones which have watch functions.But a new market has been created for wrist watches，which are not only used to tell the time，but also as important fashion statement pieces.‎ Generally speaking，watches for formal occasions are beautifully made and more like pieces of jewelry than watches.Men’s watches for informal and semi-formal events ‎ include simple，slim designs and large-and-thick-sized styles.Nowadays，men usually don’t follow any specific style of dress for watches，and the luxury brands of the expensive and strongly-made sports watches have made them believe that they look more stylish because of their high prices.Some of the fashion watches have a diamond and some others are completely decorated with precious stones such as diamonds.‎ Men’s watches also have many advanced functions.For example，the dual-time watches for travelers make them know the time in most other countries as well as the time in their home if they are abroad.‎ In a word，a men’s watch is one of the few accessories for men’s cupboard.Men can choose their most suitable watches to go with their personal taste.‎ 语篇解读　以前人们戴手表只是为了报时，他们追求的是手表报时的精确性。现在的年轻人戴手表更多的是在乎手表的款式，认为手表可以展示人的个性，而不太关注它报时的准确性。‎ ‎4．According to the first paragraph，the first men’s wrist watch .‎ A．was used by a pilot on flights B．was not only a tool to tell the time C．was viewed as a symbol of fashion D．was created as a decorative bracelet 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The first men’s wrist watch was available in 1904.A pilot called Alberto Santos-Dumont personally asked a watchmaker to create a wrist watch to use on flights.”可知，第一块男士手表是飞行员在飞行中使用的，故选A。‎ ‎5．What does the underlined word “indispensable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?‎ A．Necessary. B．Useful.‎ C．Dependable. D．Popular.‎ 答案　A 解析　词义猜测题。根据画线单词后“to tell the time for most people have cell phones which have watch functions”可知，由于手机也有手表的功能，所以手表并不是必需的。故选A。‎ ‎6．What can we learn from the passage?‎ A．Men’s pocket watches came after men’s wrist watches.‎ B．Those touring abroad will find a dual-time watch useful.‎ C．Watches with advanced functions are always expensive.‎ D．Men’s watches for informal occasions appear like jewels.‎ 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。由倒数第二段可知，那些出国旅游的人发现双时表很有用。故选B。‎ ‎7．Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage?‎ A．The Brief History of Men’s Watches B．Advanced Functions of Men’s Watches C．Men’s Watches—Fashion Statement Pieces D．How to Choose a Stylish Men’s Watch 答案　C 解析　标题归纳题。根据第二段中的“But a new market has been created for wrist watches，which are not only used to tell the time，but also as important fashion statement pieces.”可知，“男士手表——时尚宣言”最能概括文章大意。故选C。‎ C ‎(2019•山东实验中学高三诊断)‎ British Writer John Donne once said：“No man is an island；every book is a world.” As an enthusiastic reader，I can’t agree with the latter part of the sentence more.Every summer I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed.Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd.I am no friend to chaos，either.‎ I read George Orwell’s 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors，no telephones or televisions in the rooms.1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection.Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel，however，was less fruitful：I made it through one and a quarter volumes，but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn’t keep them open.‎ But this summer I find myself at a loss.I’m not quite interested in J．D.Salinger，say，or Frankenstein.There’s always War and Peace，which I’ve covered some distance several times，only to get bogged down in the “War” part，set it aside for a while，and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again，having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank.How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite—once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland，which feels almost like cheating，too exciting and too much fun to belong to serious literature.‎ And then there’s John Steinbeck’s The Grapes of Wrath.This title do not amaze but confuse.We’re never short of sour grapes，but we’ve never heard of angry grapes.Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer.These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.‎ 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文，在文章里作者和读者分享了他对阅读的理解和他的阅读经历。‎ ‎8．What can we infer from Paragraph 2?‎ A．The author has a cottage in New England.‎ B．1984 is a book that needs deep reflection.‎ C．Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful.‎ D．Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied hotel.‎ 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel，however，was less fruitful...”可知读《喧哗与骚动》也没有什么收获。第二段里提及的两本书中，有一本很有收获，另外一本没有收获。C项表示部分否定。故选C项。‎ ‎9．Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?‎ A．He finishes them quickly.‎ B．He should read something serious.‎ C．He barely understands them.‎ D．He gets amazed by their titles.‎ 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句“...which feels almost like cheating，too exciting and too much fun to belong to serious literature.”可知，阅读自己最喜欢的书籍就感觉像是作弊一样，读自己喜欢的书籍太有趣了，但是我们应该阅读一些严肃文学，让我们有更多的收获。故B项正确。‎ ‎10．What can we say about the author?‎ A．Thomas Hardy is his friend.‎ B．He likes serious literature.‎ C．He is quite forgetful.‎ D．He is a literary-minded man.‎ 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第一段前两句“British Writer John Donne once said：“No man is an island；every book is a world.” As an enthusiastic reader，I can’t agree with the latter part of the sentence more.”可知，作者是一个非常喜欢阅读的人，文章并没有提及托马斯•哈代是他的朋友，也没有说作者喜欢严肃文学作品或者作者健忘。故D项正确。‎ ‎11．What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?‎ A．To share his reading experience.‎ B．To encourage readers to read books.‎ C．To introduce good books to readers.‎ D．To condemn the chaotic world we live in.‎ 答案　A 解析　写作意图题。本文是一篇记叙文，在文章里作者和读者分享了他对阅读的理解和他的阅读经历。故A项正确。‎ Ⅱ.七选五 Sociologists(社会学家)，working in Western countries，have found that a large number of women wish they were born men. 12 ‎ ‎“Women often wish they had the same chances as men have，and think it is still men’s world，”said Dr James Holden，one of the sociologists who did the study.‎ ‎ 13 A man has to make money to support his family and to make important decisions，so it is right for men to be paid more.Some are even against their wives working at all. 14 In other words，if women take full-time jobs，they won’t be able to do what they are best at：making a nice home and bringing up the children.‎ Some women disagree.They say they want to get out of their homes，and to have freedom to choose between work and home life. 15 ‎ Anne Harper has a very good job.She also believes in “women’s liberation(妇女解放运动)”．“I don’t wish I were a man，” she says，“and I don’t think many women do.But I do wish people would stop treating us like second-class people.At work，for example，we usually do the work that men do but get paid less.There are still a lot of jobs only to men—usually they are the best ones. 16 How many women scientists are there...or engineers？”‎ 语篇解读　很多女性想成为男性，这样就能同工同酬，做自己想做的工作。可是男性却不这么认为。‎ A．Most men are better at taking care of their babies.‎ B．Many men say that they have more duties than women.‎ C．Opinions about women’s position in society vary from person to person.‎ D．The number is said to be as high as 60% in Germany.‎ E．If you are a man，you have a much better chance of living a wonderful life.‎ F．When wives go out to work，they say，the home and children cannot be taken good care of.‎ G．They believe women should have the right of equal pay and equal chances.‎ ‎12．答案　D 解析　上一句讲到社会学家发现，很多女性希望生而为男性，D项则指出在德国这个数字高达60%，两句相呼应。‎ ‎13．答案　B 解析　下一句列举了男性的责任，由此可知，设空处应和男性的责任有关。duties是关键词，故选B项。‎ ‎14．答案　F 解析　上一句讲的是有些男性甚至反对妻子工作，设空处应该表明反对的原因。F项(他们说当妻子外出工作时，家庭和孩子就不能得到很好的照顾)符合语境。‎ ‎15．答案　G 解析　本段首句“Some women disagree.”为本段主旨句，下文就女性希望拥有的权益展开论述。G项是从女性角度出发对女性权益的阐述，其中的They与本段首句中的Some women相呼应。‎ ‎16．答案　E 解析　前文提到女性被当作二等公民看待，在工作中，女性同男性做一样的工作却得到较少的报酬。有很多工作只对男性提供，通常是最好的那些工作。E项(如果你是一个男性，你会更有可能过精彩的生活)是对上文的总结，且与下一句“有多少女科学家或者女工程师呢？”形成对比，故选E项。‎ Period Two　Welcome to the unit & Reading—Language ‎ points ‎ ‎

actually has many health benefits.Studies have shown that the act of laughing can make blood pressure fall，reduce stress and improve immune function.‎ Not only that，but laughter can also provide benefits similar to that of an antidepressant.When you laugh，your body lets out something that results in a general feeling of health and happiness.Regular laughter can play a role in helping you to avoid many health problems.Thus，not only do women tend to laugh more than men，they are also more likely to “have the last laugh”．‎ According to a study at the Stanford University of Medicine，gender can affect the way that a person’s brain responds to humor.The study，which is about the monitoring of 10 men and 10 women watching cartoons，shows that women are more likely than men to use the part of the brain that manages rewards.It seems that women have lower expectations about a reward (in this case，the reward being the punch-line of the joke or cartoon)，which results in them enjoying the experience more than the men.Men，on the other hand，seem to expect that they will find the cartoons humorous，and are therefore more likely to be disappointed and find them less funny.‎ Women are more likely to respond to men whom they find humorous and men seem to recognize this and do their best to make women laugh.It has been shown that women are more likely to laugh in the presence of men whom they like and men are more likely to be attracted to women who laugh in their presence because it makes ‎ them feel better.Clearly，it is important to men that a woman appreciates their humor.‎

women C．laughter makes women humorous D．humorous men make women happy 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。由最后一段可知，女人更乐于回应那些她们认为幽默的男人，大笑是她们欣赏男人幽默的表现。故正确答案为D。‎ ‎45．The main idea of the passage is.‎ A．women laugh more than men B．laughter has many health benefits C．women enjoy humor more than men D．humorous men are popular with women 答案　A 解析　主旨大意题。文章首段就点明了文章的主旨：近期一些研究表明女人比男人爱笑。后面的段落详细说明了笑的益处，女人爱笑的原因等。故正确答案为A。其他选项都是文章中的某一个细节，不可作为文章的主旨。‎ Ⅴ.语法填空 How Learning Habits Influence Learning Results It’s useful and necessary to discuss learning

scientific evidence showing that laughter is extremely beneficial to human health.He made a decision that more laughter was needed to improve health and deal with the stress of modern living.‎ ‎ ‎ In 1995，while writing an article for a health journal，Dr.Kataria discovered many modern scientific studies describing the benefits of laughter on the human mind and body.In particular，he was impressed by Norman Cousins’ book Anatomy of an Illness and the research work by Dr.Lee Berk.Then he began to field-test the effect of laughter on himself and others.‎ Starting with just five people，on March 13,1995，at a public park in his neighborhood，Dr.Kataria started the first laughter club.They laughed together in the park to the amusement of bystanders，and the small group quickly grew to more than 50 people within a few days.In the early meetings，they stood in a circle with one person in the center to tell a joke or a funny story.Everybody enjoyed themselves and felt good for the rest of the day.However，after two weeks，their jokes and stories ran out.Some complained that it would be better to discontinue the club than to continue without any jokes.Dr.Kataria asked the club members to give him one day to develop a breakthrough that would solve the problem.‎ That night，Dr.Kataria reviewed his research and finally found the answer.Our body cannot differentiate between pretend and genuine laughter.In fact，both produced the same effect.The next morning，the results were amazing.For some，the make-believe laughter quickly turned into real laughter.Soon the group was laughing like never before.The hearty laughter that followed lasted for almost ten minutes.This was the birth of Laughter Yoga.‎ 语篇解读　本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了大笑瑜伽的起源。‎ ‎21．We can infer from Paragraph 2 that Madan Kataria .‎ A．used

great，and which will be forgotten？And who decides?‎ These are important questions，for the great art of the past often was not considered great during its own time.When Shakespeare and Charles Dickens were writing，for example，most critics considered them as hack(平庸的) writers with little or no literary ability.Similarly，Van Gogh and many of the other impressionist painters of the late nineteenth century were not allowed to participate in events involving what were thought to be the “real” painters of the time，and often they were very poor.Yet today their paintings often sell for millions of dollars，while those so-called “real” painters are now barely remembered.‎ So what makes great art？Can，for example，rock music be great art？Music videos？Cartoons and comics？Those who call themselves critics of the fine arts often have been the last to recognise great art in the past，and we can probably expect this to be the situation today.‎ Critics often don’t recognise great art because they tend to be prejudiced against what is popular.Popular works，whether they are novels，movies，or comics，are usually considered to be produced for the sake of money only，and not for the sake of art.‎ But popularity，it seems to me，is one of the three signs that a present-day work of art may come to be thought of as great.The other two are that it is groundbreaking，and that it is inherently(内在地) beautiful.‎ Many works have one or even two of these qualities of being popular，unusual and beautiful.But having all the three will often mean that a work of art will someday be seen to be great，though it may take a good spoonful of time，such as a century or two，to know for sure.‎ 语篇解读　本文是一篇议论文。作者在文中阐述了什么样的艺术才是伟大的艺术，并指出它们的特点：流行性、突破性、内在美。‎ ‎25．What is the purpose of the first paragraph?‎ A．To explain what kind of art will become popular.‎ B．To introduce some real painters to the readers.‎ C．To introduce the writer’s confusion about art.‎ D．To lead into the following points by arousing the readers’ curiosity.‎ 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。作者在第一段中接连提出了几个问题，目的在于引起读者的兴趣，从而引出后文。故选D项。‎ ‎26．What does the author want to prove by using the examples of Shakespeare，Charles Dickens and Van Gogh?‎ A．These masters’ works have some shortcomings.‎ B．These masters wouldn’t have been so successful without the critics.‎ C．Truly beautiful works of art are never understood when first created.‎ D．Great masters were often not acknowledged while they were alive.‎ 答案　D 解析　推理判断题。根据第二段的主题句“These are important questions，for the great art of the past often was not considered great during its own time.”可知，伟大的艺术往往在自己的时代并不被认为是伟大的，而后列举的莎士比亚、查尔斯•狄更斯以及凡•高的例子就是来证明这一点的。故选D项。‎ ‎27．According to the passage，what do critics think of popular works?‎ A．They will be out of date quickly.‎ B．They are created for profit rather than for art.‎ C．They might be presented in a popular form.‎ D．They are thought valuable because of their low sale price.‎ 答案　B 解析　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Popular works，whether they are novels，movies，or comics，are usually considered to be produced for the sake of money only，and not for the sake of art.”可知，评论家认为当代的流行艺术是为了金钱利益而创作的，不是为了艺术。故选B项。‎ ‎28．What can be inferred from the last three paragraphs?‎ A．Critics have changed their attitudes to great works.‎ B．Critics’ comments determine great art works.‎ C．The work of art itself determines its greatness.‎ D．Popular works today must become great art works someday.‎ 答案　C 解析　推理判断题。文章第四段讲的是评论家认为流行的作品是为金钱利益而生，并不是伟大的艺术。倒数第二段讲的是流行性与突破性、内在美一样，是当今伟大的艺术作品的特征。最后一段讲的是有上述三个特征的作品总有一天会被认为是伟大的艺术。由此可推断能否成为伟大的艺术，关键在于作品本身的受欢迎程度、不同寻常的特点和内在的美，而不在于评论家的评判。故选C项。‎ Ⅳ.七选五 How to Store Strawberries You’ve got some beautiful strawberries and brought them home with great care.You’ve washed a few and eaten them immediately，but what to do with the rest？ 29 These simple tips for storing strawberries guarantee the least waste：‎ First things first，don’t wash the strawberries until you’re ready to eat them.Strawberries are ready to absorb water. 30 ‎ If you plan on eating or cooking with the berries within a day and it’s not too terribly hot in your kitchen，you can leave the strawberries out at room temperature.Put them ‎ in a pretty bowl within easy eyesight so people remember to eat them.‎ ‎ 31 Take a shallow bowl or plate with a clean kitchen towel.Place the unwashed strawberries in more or less a single layer and refrigerate them.Stored this way，very fresh strawberries will keep for several days.The closer you can create this dry and unpressed situation，the better. 32 ‎ If you’re not planning on using the strawberries within a few days，you’d better freeze them rather than keep them all fresh.Frozen strawberries are perfect for baking up in cakes，and other treats. 33 They say frozen strawberries hold their shape better.Besides，whenever you have strawberries about to be not at their best，you can also place them in the freezer.By the end of strawberry season，you’ll likely have enough of them to make jam.‎ A．There are different answers to this question.‎ B．They say frozen ones are to be more easily stored.‎ C．Actually，many bakers prefer frozen berries to fresh ones.‎ D．Again，don’t wash them until you’re going to use them!‎ E．And once they’ve met with water，they are quick to rot away.‎ F．For overnight storage，however，you’d better refrigerate them.‎ G Strawberries can go bad easily，especially when not stored correctly.‎

situation，the better.”可知，存放草莓要保持干燥，故不能洗。分析选项可知D项符合题意，故选D项。‎ ‎33．答案　C 解析　根据上一句“Frozen strawberries are perfect for baking up in cakes，and other treats.(冷冻草莓非常适合烘烤蛋糕和其他食物。)”及下一句“They say frozen strawberries hold their shape better.(他们说冷冻草莓的形状更好。)”可知，面包师一定喜欢这种冷冻草莓。分析选项可知C项(事实上，与新鲜草莓相比，许多面包师更喜欢冷冻草莓。)符合题意。‎ Period Four　 Project ‎ ‎ Ⅰ.写出下列单词的汉语意思(共15题；每题1分，满分15分)‎ ‎1．bench n．长凳，长椅 ‎2．textbook

当然。(挪了挪，好像是要为托尼腾出地方) ‎※此句中的as if to make room for Tony是省略形式，其完整形式为as if he is to make room for Tony。当as if/though从句的主语与主句的主语一致或从句的主语为it，且从句谓语含有be动词时，从句可以省略主语及be动词。‎ ‎※as if/though引导的从句是用虚拟语气，还是用陈述语气，应该根据具体情况而定。如果从句表示真实情况，用陈述语气；如果从句表示的意思与事实完全相反，或者纯粹是一种假设，通常用虚拟语气。①与过去事实相反，从句谓语动词用过去完成时。②与现在事实相反，从句谓语动词用一般过去时(be动词用were)。③与将来事实相反，从句谓语动词用“would/could＋动词原形”。‎ ‎(1)Mrs Brown

该句型的反义疑问句，其后半部分要根据前半句的具体时间状语来确定。对已经发生的过去的情况的推测，若陈述句的谓语部分有must have done，而且有过去的时间状语，问句部分用didn’t；若没有表示过去的时间状语，问句部分用haven’t或者hasn’t；如果句子中有表示过去完成时的时间状语，问句部分应该用hadn’t。‎ ‎[完成句子]　完成下列句子的反义疑问句 ‎(4)He must

表示推测，可能已经做了某事，故选B。‎ ‎(8)I can’t find my purse.I it in the supermarket yesterday，but I’m not sure.‎ ‎(2018•江苏)‎ A．should leave B．must have left C．might leave D．could have left 答案　D 解析　句意为：我找不到我的钱包了。我昨天可能把它落在了超市里，但我不确定。根据句中的时间状语yesterday可知，空格处是对过去发生的事情的推测，需用“情态动词＋have done”，B、D两项符合；再根据句中的“but I’m not sure”排除B项“一定落在”，故选D项。若C项改为might have left，也是正确的。‎ ‎ ‎ Ⅰ.单词拼写 ‎1．With a final

think there would be any difficulty in getting it mended，as there were a whole lot of antique shops near my home.So I left home one morning carrying the chair with me.I went into the first shop expecting a friendly reception.I was quite wrong.The man wouldn’t even look at my chair.‎ The second shop，though slightly more polite，was just the same，and the third and the fourth—so I decided that my approach must be wrong.‎ I entered the fifth shop with a plan in my mind.I placed the chair on the floor and said to the shopkeeper，“Would you like to buy a chair？” He looked it over carefully and said，“Yes，not a bad chair.How much do you want for it，sir？”“Twenty pounds，” I said.“OK，”he said，“I’ll give you twenty pounds.”“It’s got a slightly broken leg，” I said.“Yes，I saw that，it’s nothing.”‎ Everything was going according to plan and I was getting excited.“What will you do with it？” I asked.“Oh，it will be easy to sell once the repair is done.”“I’ll buy it，” I said.“What do you mean？You’ve just sold it to me，” he said.“Yes，I know but I’ve changed my mind.I am sorry.I’ll give you twenty-seven pounds for it.”“You must be crazy，” he said.Then，suddenly the penny dropped.“I know what you want.You want me to repair your chair.” “You’re right，” I said.“And what would you have done if I had walked in and said，‘Would you mend this chair for me？’” “I wouldn’t have agreed to do it，” he said.“We don’t do repairs，not enough money in it and too much trouble.But I’ll mend this for you，shall we say for a fiver (five pounds)？”He was a very nice man and was greatly amused(感到有趣) by the whole thing.‎ 语篇解读　本文主要讲述了作者去古董店修理一把坏了一条腿的椅子，但连续遭到了几家店员的婉拒，后来，作者通过一个聪明的办法修好椅子的有趣故事。‎ ‎41．We can learn from the text that in the first shop the writer .‎ A．was rather impolite B．was warmly received

there has always been humour.‎ ‎2．Stand-up is a kind of comedy that is done on a stage by a comedian talking straight to audience members.‎ ‎3．A stand-up comedian may tease an audience member，or might

while standing in front of the mirror，brushing his teeth.‎ ‎5．They could only see him standing there moving his lips.‎ ‎6．Laughing helps your body stay healthy and can even help you fight pain.‎ ‎7．To be a good actor，you need to know the vocabulary used on stage.‎ ‎8．The most famous are the Canadian Mark Roswell，known in China as Dashan，and David Moser(Mo Dawei) from the USA.‎ ‎1．以上各句中，非谓语动词作主语的是：句6；非谓语动词作宾语的是：句1,4。‎ ‎2．以上各句中，非谓语动词在句中作方式状语是：句3；非谓语动词作伴随状语且该非谓语动词表示主动和正在进行的动作的是句4。‎ ‎3．句5中宾语与宾语补足语之间是主动关系。‎ ‎4．从句2中可以看出，现在分词在句中作定语，表示其与被修饰名词之间存在主动关系；从句7,8中可以看出过去分词在句中作定语，表示其与被修饰名词之间存在被动关系。‎ ‎ ‎ 一、非谓语动词的句法功能 非谓语动词包括不定式、动名词和分词，非谓语动词可在句中作主语、宾语、补语、表语、定语和状语。‎ 成分 形式 主语 宾语 宾语补足语 表语 定语 状语 不定式 √ √ √ √ √ √‎ 动名词 √ √ √ √ ‎ 分词 √ √ √ √‎ 二、非谓语动词作主语 ‎1．不定式作主语 ‎(1)不定式作主语表示某一次的具体动作、将来的动作或一般情况。作主语的不定式有时态和语态的变化，而且谓语动词的数通常用单数。‎ To hesitate means failure.‎ 犹豫不决就意味着失败。‎ To know everything is to know nothing.‎ 样样皆通，样样稀松。‎ To smoke so much is not very good for you.‎ 抽这么多烟对你身体很不好。‎ ‎(2)有时候为了保持句子平衡，也可以用it作形式主语，而将作主语的动词不定式后置。‎ It is our duty to give as much help as possible.‎ 提供尽可能多的帮助是我们的职责。‎ ‎(3)不定式的逻辑主语通常用for/of sb.表示，常用于“It is＋adj.＋for/of sb.＋to do sth.”结构。‎ It’s difficult for us to finish the work.‎ 对我们来说，完成这项工作是困难的。‎ It’s clever of you to work out the maths problem.‎ 你真聪明，解出了这道数学题。‎ ‎[温馨提示]　若形容词是描述事物，不是对不定式行为者的品格进行评价，用for；若形容词是描述不定式行为者的性格、品质的，用of。‎ ‎2．动名词作主语 ‎(1)动名词作主语常表示一般性的、习惯性的动作或状态，动名词有时态和语态的变化，且谓语动词通常用单数形式。‎ Saying is easier than doing.说比做容易。‎ Having seen a lot of the world in one’s youth is a good thing.年轻时多见见世面是件好事。‎ Being laughed at in public is what you will never want to happen to you.‎ 被当众嘲笑是你永远不想发生在自己身上的事情。‎ ‎(2)动名词作主语时，可位于句首和句末。动名词位于句末时常用it作形式主语。常见句型有：‎ It is＋adj.(good，funny，nice，difficult，worthwhile，interesting...)＋动名词It is no use/no good/a waste of time...＋动名词 It is no use waiting here.‎ 在这儿等无济于事。‎ It is worthwhile spending some time doing this job.‎ 花点儿时间做这项工作是值得的。‎ 注意：动名词作主语时可以有自己的逻辑主语。‎ His leaving is a great loss.‎ 他的离开是一个巨大的损失。‎ 三、非谓语动词作定语 ‎1．不定式作定语 ‎(1)作定语的不定式如果是不及物动词，或者不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的地点、工具等，不定式后面须有相应的介词。‎ The Browns have a comfortable house to live in.‎ 布朗一家有舒适的房子可住。‎ ‎(2)当作定语的不定式所修饰的名词或代词是不定式动作的承受者时，不定式既可用主动语态，也可用被动语态，但其含义有所不同。试比较：‎ Have you got anything to send?‎ 你有什么东西要寄吗？(不定式to send的动作执行者是“你”)‎ Have you got anything to be sent?‎ 你有什么要(我或别人)寄的东西吗？(不定式to be sent的动作执行者是“我”或“别人”)‎ ‎(3)用不定式作定语的几种情况：‎ ‎①不定式表将来 The car to be bought is for his sister.‎ 要买的这辆车是给他姐姐的。‎ ‎②用来修饰被序数词、最高级或no，all，any等限定的中心词。‎ He was the best man to do the job.‎ 他是做这项工作的最佳人选。‎ She was the first woman to win the gold medal in the Olympic Games.‎ 她是在奥运会上第一个获得金牌的女选手。‎ ‎③用来修饰的词是抽象名词时用不定式，常见的有ability，chance，idea，fact，excuse，promise，answer，reply，attempt，belief，way，reason，moment，time等。‎ Do you have the ability to read and write in English?‎ 你具备英语读写的能力吗？‎ I have no chance to go sightseeing.‎ 我没有机会外出观光。‎ ‎2．分词作定语 ‎(1)现在分词作定语：作定语的现在分词，与所修饰词之间是主动关系。‎ ‎①单个分词作定语通常放在所修饰的名词的前面，分词短语作定语通常放在所修饰的名词的后面。‎ Keep silent in order not to wake up the sleeping baby.‎ 保持安静，别惊醒睡觉的小孩。‎ If you see soldiers wearing sky-blue helmets，they are United Nations peacekeepers.‎ 如果你看见戴着天蓝色头盔的士兵，他们就是联合国维和人员。‎ ‎②现在分词的一般式(doing)作定语，表示主动、进行的动作；现在分词一般式的被动语态(being done)作定语，表示被动、进行的动作。‎ The man standing by the window is our teacher.‎ 站在窗户旁边的那个人是我们的老师。‎ The bridge being repaired will be in use next month.‎ 正在修缮的大桥将于下个月使用。‎ ‎[温馨提示]　动名词作定语往往表示某种用途，而不是正在进行着的动作，如a walking stick拐杖，a reading room阅览室。‎ ‎(2)过去分词作定语：作定语的过去分词与所修饰词之间是被动关系。表示被动或完成的动作。‎ The house built last year has become our lab.‎ 去年建的那座房子已经成了我们的实验室。‎ English is now an international language，spoken by about 750 million people.‎ 英语现在是一门国际语言，约有7.5亿人说英语。‎ ‎3．不定式的一般被动式(to be done)、过去分词(done)、现在分词的一般被动式(being done)作定语时的区别：‎ 不定式的一般被动式(to be done)表示将来的被动动作；过去分词(done)表示被动或完成的动作；现在分词的一般被动式(being done)表示被动、进行的动作。‎ Have you read the novel written by Dickens?‎ 你读过狄更斯写的小说吗？‎ Listen！The song being sung is very popular with the students.‎ 听！现在正唱着的这首歌在学生中非常流行。‎ The question to be discussed at tomorrow’s meeting is very important.‎ 明天将要在会上讨论的这个问题非常重要。‎ 四、非谓语动词作宾语补足语 ‎1．一般情况下，不定式作宾补常表示动作是将来发生的，现在分词作宾补表示动作正在进行，而过去分词作宾补常表示被动含义。‎ The children asked their parents to take them to the park.孩子们要求父母带他们去公园。‎ Suddenly he heard someone knocking gently on the window.‎ 忽然他听见有人在轻轻地敲窗户。‎ When they got there，they found the house burnt down.‎ 当他们到那儿时，发现房子已被烧毁。‎ ‎2．感官动词，如see，watch，observe，notice，hear，feel及部分表示“使”“让”的使役动词，如have，make，let后跟不定式作宾补时要省略不定式符号to。但在被动语态中to要加上。‎ Though he had often made his sister cry，today he was made to cry by his sister.‎ 尽管他总是弄哭他妹妹，今天他却被他妹妹弄哭了。‎ ‎[温馨提示]　感官动词后跟分词和动词不定式作宾补的区别：如果感官动词后的宾语和宾补之间是主动关系或表示正在进行的动作，则用现在分词；如果是主动关系又表示全过程时，则用省略to的动词不定式；如果是被动关系，且动作已经完成，则用过去分词。‎ I saw him enter the hall.我看见他进了大厅。‎ I saw him walking into the hall.我看见他正走进大厅。‎ I saw him punished by his father.‎ 我看见他受到父亲的惩罚。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎1．I didn’t mean anything but the ice cream looked so good that I couldn’t help it.(2018•天津，12)‎ A．to eat；to try B．eating；trying C．eating；to try D．to eat；trying 答案　D 解析　句意为：我没打算吃东西，但这冰淇淋看上去如此美味以至于我忍不住尝了下。mean to do sth.打算做某事；mean doing sth.意味着做某事；can’t help doing sth.禁不住/忍不住做某事；can’t help (to) do sth.不能帮忙做某事。‎ ‎2． along the old Silk Road is an interesting and rewarding experience.(2018•北京，3)‎ A．Travel B．Traveling C．Having traveled D．Traveled 答案　B 解析　分析句子结构，本句缺少主语。选项中只有B项能作主语。如果动词作句子的主语，只能由不定式或动名词来充当。C项常用来作状语，表示动作先于谓语动词所表示的动作发生。句意为：沿着古丝绸之路旅行是一次有趣而又有意义的经历。‎ ‎3．I need a new passport so I will have to have my photograph .‎ ‎(2018•天津，7)‎ A．taking B．taken C．being taken D．take 答案　B 解析　句意为：我需要一个新护照，因此我得去拍照。本题考查have sth.done结构，意为“让别人做某事，让……被做”。my photograph与take之间是被动关系，故需用take的过去分词形式。‎ ‎4．I was watching the clock all through the meeting，as I had a train .(2017•天津，10)‎ A．catching B．caught C．to catch D．to be caught 答案　C 解析　句意为：整个会议期间，我一直在看时间，因为我要赶火车。结合句意可知，此处表示将要发生的动作，故选C。‎ ‎5．Jim has retired，but he still remembers the happy time with his students.‎ ‎(2017•北京，32)‎ A．to spend B．spend C．spending D．spent 答案　D 解析　考查过去分词短语作定语。句意为：吉姆已经退休了，不过他仍然记得和学生们一起度过的快乐时光。time与spend之间是被动关系，故此处用过去分词形式。‎ ‎6．To return to the problem of water pollution，I’d like you to look at a study in Australia in 2012.(2016•浙江，10)‎ A．having conducted B．to be conducted C．conducting D．conducted 答案　D 解析　句意为：为了再讨论一下水污染的问题，我想让大家看一项2012年在澳大利亚进行的研究。分析句子成分可知，句中没有连词，所以空处用非谓语动词，且 a study和 conduct 构成逻辑上的被动关系，所以用过去分词作后置定语。‎ ‎7．In art criticism，you must assume the artist has a secret message within the work.(2016•江苏，28)‎ A．to hide B．hidden C．hiding D．being hidden 答案　B 解析　句意为：在艺术评论中，你得假设艺术家藏了一个秘密信息在作品中。句中message与hide之间是被动关系，故要用过去分词作后置定语。‎ ‎8． the difference between the two research findings will be one of the worst mistakes you make.(2015•安徽，27)‎ A．Ignore B．Ignoring C．Ignored D．Having ignored 答案　B 解析　句意为：忽视这两个研究结果的不同将是你犯的最严重的错误之一。分析句子结构可知，will be的前面部分是主语，因此用动名词短语作主语。这里表达一般情况，因此不用完成式。故选B。‎ ‎9．Listening to music at home is one thing；going to hear it live is quite another.(2015•浙江，18)‎ A．perform B．performing C．to perform D．being performed 答案　D 解析　句意为：在家听音乐是一回事，去听现场演奏的音乐完全是另外一回事。题干中含有“hear＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构，宾语it(指代music)与perform之间存在被动关系，且此处表示正在被演奏，故应用being performed作宾语补足语。‎ ‎10．After receiving the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress，Anne Benedict

sth.继续做另一件事；go on doing sth.继续做同一件事。此处表示拿奖后又继续做另一件事，即感谢所有帮助过她的人，所以选A。‎ ‎ Ⅰ.用所给动词的正确形式填空 ‎1．Back from his two-year medical service in Africa，Dr Lee was very happy to see his mother taken(take) good

old grouch，and everyone in town knew it.Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick a delicious apple.Old Dawson，they said，would come after you with his gun.‎ One Friday,12-year-old Janet was going to stay all night with her friend Amy.They had to walk by Dawson’s house on the way to Amy’s house，but as they got close，Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over to the other side of the street.Like most of the children，Janet was scared of the old man.‎ Amy told her not to worry，for Mr Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone.Still，Janet was growing more nervous with each step closer to the old man’s house.When they got close enough，Dawson looked up with his usual frown(皱眉)，but when he saw it was Amy，a broad smile changed his entire face as he said，“Hello，Miss Amy.I see you’ve got a little friend with you today.”‎ Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight and they were going to listen to music and play games.Mr Dawson said that sounded fun，and offered them each a fresh apple picked off his tree.They gladly accepted.Mr Dawson had the best apples in the whole town.‎ When they left，Janet asked Amy，“Everyone says he’s the meanest man in town.How come he was so nice to us？”‎ Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him，but she pretended he was wearing an invisible smile and so she always smiled back at him.It took a while，but one day he half-smiled back at her.‎ After some more time，he started smiling real smiles and then started talking to her.Just a “hello” at first，then more.She said he always offers her an apple now，and is always very kind.‎ ‎“An invisible smile？” questioned Janet.‎ ‎“Yes，” answered Amy，“my grandma told me that if I pretended I wasn’t afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him，sooner or later he would really smile.Grandma says smiles are contagious.”‎ If we remember what Amy’s grandma said，that everyone wears an invisible smile，we too will find that most people can’t resist our smile after a while.We’re always on the go trying to accomplish so much，aren’t we? It’s so easy to get caught up in everyday life that we forget how simple it can be to bring cheer to ourselves and others.Giving a smile away takes so little effort and time，and let’s make sure that we’re not the one that others have to pretend to be wearing an invisible smile.‎ 语篇解读　老头道森通常是很冷淡的，孩子们很害怕他，但是艾米和他的关系很好，这是因为艾米听了奶奶的话，认为他有着看不见的笑容，艾米会向他微笑，慢慢地道森真的开始微笑了，他们的关系也越来越好了。‎ ‎41．Kids were scared of Mr Dawson because .A.he was always very cold B．he would fire them with a gun C．he was mean with his apples D．he was wearing an invisible smile 答案　A 解析　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When they got close enough，Dawson looked up with his usual frown(皱眉)．..”可知，孩子们害怕道森先生因为他通常是很冷漠的。故选A项。‎ ‎42．We can infer from the text that .‎ A．Janet was so lovely a girl that Mr Dawson couldn’t resist her smiles B．it was Grandma’s advice that helped bring Amy and Mr Dawson closer C．Mr Dawson was friendly to Amy because she always wore an invisible smile D．Janet and Amy were going to invite Mr Dawson to listen to music and play games 答案　B 解析　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“my grandma told me that if I pretended I wasn’t afraid...sooner or later he would really smile”可知，是奶奶的建议使艾米和道森先生的关系更近了，故选B项。‎ ‎43．The underlined word “contagious” in Paragraph 9 means “ ”．‎ A．meaningful B．infectious C．moving D．supportive 答案　B 解析　词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段“...I wasn’t afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him，sooner or later he would really smile.”可知，假装别人在笑，自己也对他笑，很快这个人就会真的对你笑了，所以笑是可以感染的。故选B项。‎ ‎44．What is the main message that the author intends to send us readers?‎ A．Smile whenever we can.‎ B．Always wear an invisible smile.‎ C．Try our best to transform others.‎ D．Pretend that we are happy even if we are not.‎ 答案　A 解析　主旨大意题。根据最后一段最后一句可知，作者想表达的是：我们要尽可能地微笑。故选A项。‎ Period Six　Writing—Writing an e-mail ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 英文电子邮件在内容结构上与普通书信一样，但在格式上有所不同。它主要由以下几部分组成：‎ ‎1．标题栏 一般情况下，开头需要填写的地方有To：(收件人)及subject(邮件主题)。‎ ‎2．称呼语 在电子邮件中，正文前的称呼应根据写信人与收信人的关系而定，一般以Dear...或My dear...开头。‎ ‎3．正文 正文是电子邮件的主要部分，写作时需注意以下两点：‎ ‎(1)首先要明确写给谁。不同的收件人，语气不同。写给朋友的可用一些俚语或缩写词语，但正式的邮件就不能用俚语或缩写词语。像高考中的书面表达题，就是正规的写作，一般不用俚语或缩写词语。‎ ‎(2)文体的特点是简单明了，便于阅读，所以电子邮件大多把话题分成几个小主题，每个小主题一段，每段一般只有一两句话，正文由两三个或三四个简短的段落构成。当然，对重点部分要作详细介绍。太长的内容可以以附件的方式发出。‎ ‎4．结束语 结束语常用敬语，表示客套和礼节，措辞应恰当。通常用“Best Regards！”“Best Wishes！”或使用“Have a nice day！”“Good day to you！”等表示美好祝愿的语句作为敬意结尾。‎ ‎5．署名 在结束语下面的一至两行签上自己的名字。‎ ‎ ‎ 常用开头语：‎ ‎1．Thank you for...‎ ‎2．I’m glad to receive your letter dated on...‎ ‎3．I’m sorry that I couldn’t write earlier.‎ ‎4．How are you getting along with your study?‎ ‎5．With great pleasure I learn that...‎ ‎6．I’m writing to ask if...‎ 正文常用语：‎ ‎1．Could you come to...？/I would very much like you to join us.(邀请)‎ ‎2．I’d like to come，but I can’t because.../I’m really sorry to say...(委婉拒绝)‎ ‎3．In my opinion，you should...(回复求助)‎ 常用结束语：‎ ‎1．I’m looking forward to receiving...‎ ‎2．All my best wishes to you.‎ ‎3．Remember me to your parents.‎ ‎4．Good luck to you.‎ ‎5．Please give my compliments to your family. ‎ ‎ ‎ 假如你叫李华，请你写一封电子邮件告知你的英国网友保罗(Paul)有关你们学校的一些情况。‎ 学校概况 共有1 800名学生，32个教学班，200名教职员工。‎ 班级情况 高二(3)班：共50名学生，其中男生35名，女生15名；班主任是一位女老师，教英语，心地善良、工作严谨。‎ 学习科目 语文、数学、英语为必修课，另外还有许多选修课。‎ 参考词汇：必修课required/compulsory courses；选修课selected/optional courses ‎ ‎ ‎1．时态：本文应以一般现在时为主。‎ ‎2．人称：以第一人称写。‎ ‎3．目的：告知网友保罗你们学校的有关情况。‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 必备词汇 ‎ ‎1．工作努力 work hard ‎2．从……中选择 choose from...‎ ‎3．对……和蔼 be kind to...‎ ‎4．对……严格 be strict in...‎ ‎5．对工作认真 be serious about one’s work ‎ 句式升级 ‎ ‎1．我们学校有1 800名学生，32个教学班，200名教职工。‎ ‎ There are 1,800 students and 32 classes in our school.There are 200 teachers and staff.(简单句)‎ ‎ There are 1,800 students and 32 classes with 200 teachers and staff in our school.(with)‎ ‎2．除此之外，我们还有很多选修科目可供选择。‎ ‎ Besides these，we have many selected courses.We can choose from them.(简单句)‎ ‎ Besides these，we have many selected courses to choose from.(不定式作后置定语)‎ ‎3．我的英语老师是我们的班主任，她对我们很和蔼，但是对工作很严格、很认真。‎ ‎ My English teacher is our head teacher.She is very kind to us but she is very strict and serious about her work.(简单句)‎ ‎ My English teacher is our head teacher，who is very kind to us but is very strict and serious about her work.(定语从句)‎ ‎ ‎ Dear Paul，‎ I’m writing to tell you something about my school.

素养解读　2017版《普通高中课程标准》首次提出“学科核心素养”。英语学科核心素养由语言能力、文化意识、思维品质和学习能力构成。随之而来，以后的英语考试将更加坚持能力立意，突出核心素养的考查。下面文段就是围绕“思维品质”这一学科素养展开，有助于学生领悟人生哲理，知道在任何时候保持幽默对我们的生活都有好处。‎ 主题：幽默　学科素养：思维品质 With all the wars，fighting and sadness in the world today，it’s not only necessary，but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives.Putting a smile on someone’s face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps makes me feel good and warms my heart.‎ How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife，husband，child，co-worker，neighbor，close friend，or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store？I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh，even if I don’t know the person I’m joking around with.My Grandma always found humor in everything she did，even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine.This not only relieves stress in any situation，but also is common courtesy to speak to others that are around you.‎ I know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies，as they say.Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face.They don’t get the joke that makes others laugh.I am busting a gut while they just sit there，looking at me as if I were from outer space.How can people not get a really funny joke?‎ Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control.Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems，or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy.There is too much sadness in this present world.It drives people crazy.We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives.So，I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.‎ 语篇解读　本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，主要介绍了幽默对人的好处，并鼓励人们在日常生活中保持幽默，传递笑声。‎ ‎1．According to the author，humor is useful in the aspect that
