Unit 1 Laughter is good for you一、阅读理解。
Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer ＂psychological first aid＂ and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude (感激) from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many y ears ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude (打扰) on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, ＂Just go. Just be there.＂ I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS — related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.1.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.2.What did the author do when his friend’s mother passed away?A. He hesitated over whether to go.B. He went to his friends’ at once.C. He knew what to do instantly.D. He decided not to disturb.3.What does the underlined word ＂solemn＂ in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Heavy but warm.B. A little sad but cosy.C. Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.4.What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C.

If you have a chance to go to Finland，you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish”the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example.T axis in Finland are mostly highclass Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer.You can go anywhere in one，tell the driver to drop you at any place，say that you have some business to attend to，and then walk off without paying your fare.The driver would not show the least signs of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests，but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals free，so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals.The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration cards to the waiter.With such a loose check，you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss at the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty_advantages”．But the strange thing is that all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fares after they have attended to their business and that not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do，living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”．1．The underlined words in Paragraph 5 means to “________”．A．be ready to help othersB．make good use of one's friendsC．be a little ahead of othersD．gain something at other's expense2．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．While taking a taxi in Finland，you can get off without first paying your fare.B．In a big hotel in Finland, you can enjoy free meals if you're living in the hotel.C．The bosses in Finland pay the employees according to the registration of their working hours.D．The workers are always honest with their working hours.3．We can learn from the passage that ________.A．the Finnish society is of very high moral(道德的)levelB．there are many loopholes in everyday life in FinlandC．in Finland，most taxi drivers will not charge you anythingD．everyone in Finland is like a gentleman，for they have faith in themselves 4．Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A．Life in FinlandB．A Society with “Foolish”PeopleC．What a LifeD．Honest accounts of the Finns【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，主要通过一些例子，介绍了芬兰人的诚实，并且诚实让他们成为真正的“绅士”。

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。
Many years ago，when we were a young couple with two small children，aged 2 and 4，we were practically impecunious.My inlaws lived from hand to mouth，so we didn't expect any help from them.My parents lived a great distance away，and I was too ashamed to let them know about our situation.My husband was trying to earn a living with an old pickup truck，carrying groceries for local shopkeepers，but it was constantly breaking down.It took almost all the money we had to have it fixed.The truck was also the only means of transportation for us.We lived in the countryside，and we always used the back door because the driveway led to it.One winter evening，I stepped outside to take a bag of trash to the barrel and almost tripped over something.It was nearly dark，and I had to bend down to see what it was.I could hardly believe my eyes.There sat a large basket loaded with food.It was heavy，so I called my husband to carry it into the house.Once inside，we discovered two loaves of bread，some butter，several cans of vegetables，a can of orange sauce，and a large turkey.There was so much that I couldn't remember it all，but it was everything we needed to fix a wonderful dinner—everything except potatoes.A little while later I remembered that I hadn't taken the trash to the barrel.By now it was dark，so I had to turn on the yard light—and that's when I spotted a small bag of potatoes sitting on the porch.That dinner was the best I could remember.We weren't able to thank our donators，though，because we never found out who had been so generous in helping a struggling young family.Whoever it was，we are forever grateful.1．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “impecunious”in Paragraph 1?A．Generous. B．Harmonious.C．Penniless. D．Stubborn.2．How did the author's husband support the family?A．By starting a garage.B．By selling food door to door.C．By delivering goods.D．By working as a shop assistant.3．How did the author feel when she saw the basket?A．She was annoyed.B．She was astonished.C．She was terrified.D．She felt a sense of relief.4．What may be the best title for the text?A．A helping hand in timeB．A struggling young coupleC．A tale of potatoesD．A reward from a stranger【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

Known as “The Man with the Golden Arm”，nearly every week for the past 60 years，James Harrison has donated blood plasma(血浆)from his right arm.The reasons can date back to a serious medical procedure.“When I was 14，I had a chest operation，” recalls Harrison，who is now aged 80.“My father said I had received 13 units of blood and my life had been saved by unknown people.So I said when I'm old enough，I'll become a blood donor.”Soon after Harrison became a donor，doctors called him in.His blood，they said，could be the answer to a deadly problem.“In Australia，up until about 1967，there were about thousands of babies dying each year because of the rhesus disease(恒河猴溶血病)，” explains Jemma Falkenmire，of the Australian Red Cross Blood Service.Harrison was discovered to have an unusual antibody (抗体)in his blood and in the 1960s he worked with doctors to use the antibodies to develop an injection(注射)called AntiD which can prevent this disease.Harrison's blood is precious.Every batch of AntiD that has ever been made in Australia has come from Harrison's blood.He and AntiD are credited with saving the lives of more than 2 million babies，according to the Australian Red Cross Blood Service：That's about 2 million lives saved by one man's blood.Harrison is considered a national hero，and has won numerous awards.He has now donated his plasma more than 1,000 times，but no matter how many times he's given blood there's one thing that will never change：“I look at the ceiling or the nurse s，maybe talk to them a bit，but never once have I watched the needle go in my arm.I can't stand the sight of blood，and I can't stand pain，” he says.1．What was the main reason for Harrison's becoming a blood donor?A．He has a golden arm.B．He has precious blood plasma.C．His father encouraged him to help others.D．Donated blood once made him survive.2．Why is James' blood precious?A．James has the AntiD in his blood.B．His blood is more useful in treating the rhesus disease.C．James' blood is the main sourc e of AntiD in Australia.D．James has donated more plasma than other donators.3．How does Harrison feel when donating his plasma?A．Nervous. B．Relaxed.C．Anxious D．Excited.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了James Harrison用自己的血液挽救了超过两百万名婴儿生命的故事。
