How would we enjoy speaking with others if we did not use humour to invite a smile or a laugh? And how would we manage in times when we feel sad and lonely?Using humour we lighten up each day, and we find common ground with others. We build healthy relationships with others by knowing what to say and what to do. When our use of humour is successful, we build trust and cooperation. We discover that we are not alone, we learn to accept our mistakes, and we look for the good in others and in ourselves. Most importantly, we create common ground, as humour is an essential skill needed to communicate well with others. A few well-chosen words get the attention of others and make a serious point without their getting defensive (自卫的). Whether we prefer to be the centre of attention or to be shy and quiet, humour can be adjusted (调整) to suit our personality.However, when we lose our sense of humour, we often get critical or defensive, and we blame others or ourselves for what was said, and how it was said.To ensure that our humour is welcomed by others, we need to combine our humour with speaking clearly and listening effectively.Have you ever noticed that successful individuals often use self-depreciating（自嘲）humour to humble (贬低) themselves, without putting themselves down? These individuals understand that every person has strengths and weaknesses and that self-depreciating humour invites others to feel more confident and equal. In this way, humour is the shortest distance between two people.Humour is the spice of life, as it brings happiness, numbs pain and it makes us speak and listen well.1. By asking three questions in Paragraph 1, the author intends to __________.A. challenge readers to answer the questionsB. indicate the importance of being humorousC. advise people to be humorous while talkingD. cheer up those who feel sad and lonely2. With a sense of humour, __________.A. people can become good at speaking and listeningB. people will become the centre of attentionC. people will become more confident in themselvesD. people may appear more trustworthy and cooperative3. Successful individuals often use self-depreciating humour to humble themselves, because they think ____.A. humour can draw people closer togetherB. they are afraid of their weaknesses being discoveredC. humour can make them feel equal with othersD. they are more self-confident than others4. From the passage we can learn that ________.A. a sense of humour can change one's personalityB. a person who has a sense of humour is helpfulC. a person who lacks a sense of humour easily trusts othersD. humour improves our ability to communicateBStand-up comedy is a style of comedy where a performer speaks directly to the audience, with the absence of the theatrical screen. A person who performs stand-up comedy is known as a stand-up comic, stand-up comedian or more informally stand up. It is usually performed by a single comedian, often with the aid of a microphone. The comedian usually recites a fast-paced succession (连串) of humorous stories, short jokes, and one-liners (小笑话), typically called a monologue, routine or act. Some stand-up comedians use props, music, or magic tricks in their acts. Stand-up comedy is often performed in comedy clubs, bars, colleges and theaters; however, there is no real limit on where it can be performed. Many smaller performing venues hold "open mic" events where amateur (业余的) comedians can perform comedy before a live audience, offering a way for the performers to improve their acting skills and possibly break into the business.Many stand-up routines are similar to one-man shows, with the main difference being the expectations ofthe audience, who, with stand-up, expect a relatively steady stream of "laughs". This in turn affects the aims of the performer, who is under great pressure to deliver those laughs. If the performer cannot coax (哄) these laughs out of the crowd, sometimes the crowd will make fun of the comedian.Stand-up comedy is considered difficult to master, because the stand-up comedian is at the mercy of the audience, which is a necessary element of the act. A skilled stand-up comedian must cleverly know the mood and tastes of any particular audience, and adjust his or her routine accordingly (相应地). Stand-up is a comedic art form that is openly devoted to making an audience laugh and receiving laughs from an audience above any other element of the form, unlike theatrical comedy, which creates comedy within the structure of a play and with character and situation. The skills needed to be a stand-up comic are various; it is often necessary for a stand-up comic alone to play at the same time the roles of a writer, editor, performer, promoter, producer, and technician.5. If a person is not a professional stand-up comedian, it is a good idea for him to perform ____.A. without the theatrical screenB. in smaller performing venues where his acting skills can be improvedC. not in front of a live audienceD. in a theatre where he can coax laughs out of the crowd6. Which of the following statements is WRONG？A. stand up refers to a performer of a style of comedyB. stand-up comedians devote themselves to rousing and receiving laughs from audienceC. stand-up comics use everything but props, music, or magic tricks to amuse audienceD. stand-up comedy is a special type of art form that can be performed in many places7. We know from the passage that _______.A. stand-up comedy is more flexible compared with theatrical comedyB. the audience expects the stand-up comedian to keep laughing without stopC. a stand-up must base his performance on his experienceD. the audience may be very polite if a stand up plays very well8. It can be inferred from the passage that___________.A. the audience sometimes show mercy to stand upsB. a good stand-up comedian is an expert at winning the laughs of their audienceC. amateur comedians improve their acting skills more quickly at smaller performing venuesD. if the audience is unhappy with the stand up's performance, they will make fun of them七、任务型阅读Many animal lovers would like to do more to help animals, but aren‟t sure where to start or feel like they just don‟t have the time. The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals.Think twice before you decideThe decisions you make when it comes to eating meat or other animal products can go a long way toward stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian（素食的）diet. If you aren‟t ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy animal products from companies known to use practices that go against the law such as using drugs to increase milk production in cows.Help get the word outGetting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important issues that are related to animals. Give some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem we‟re facing.Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give your friend.Write a letterWe‟ve all heard the saying, “ The pen is more powerful than the sword”. Put this idea to the protection of animals. If a company has practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know you are angry about them, and that you won‟t buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to state and local legislators（立法者）to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote.Be more lovingIf you‟re considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless-animal house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to those who are responsible for taking care of pitiful animals.Let your actions be an example to othersIt may sound simple ,but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living creatures with respect. Care about your pets and look after them well. Avoid (避免)entertainment places that use animals to perform. Support legislation （立法）that protects animals. All of these things set an example for others to follow.八、书面表达假定你是李华，看到班上有部分同学在完成作业时，不自己独立完成而是抄袭他人的作业，针对这种现象，请你以My o pinion on copying others‟ homework为题谈谈你自己的看法。
