3、nthusiastic about the plans3.Humor, which ought to give rise to only the most light-hearted and gay feelings, can often stir up vehemence and animosity. Evidently it is dearer to us than we realize. Men will take almost any kind of criticism except the observation that they have no sense of humour.
4、A man will admit to being a coward or a liar or a thief or a poor mechanic or a bad swimmer, but tell him he as a dreadful sense of humour and you might as well have slandered his mother. Even if he is civilized enough to pretend to make light of your statement, he will still secretly believe that h
5、e has not only a good sense of humour but are superior to most. He has, in other words, a completely blind spot on the subject. This is all the more surprising when you consider that not one man in ten million can give you any kind of intelligent answer as to what humour is or why he laughs.A:One da
6、y when I was about twelve years old, it occurred to me to wonder about the phenomenon of laughter. At first I thought it is easy enough to see what I laugh at and why I am amused, but why at such times do I open my mouth and exhale in jerking gasps and wrinkle up my eyes and throw back my head and h
7、alloo like an animal? Why do I not instead rap four times on the top of my head or whistle or whirl about?B:That was over twenty years ago and I am still wondering, except that I now no longer even take my first assumption for granted, I no longer clearly understand why I laugh at what amuses me nor
8、 why things are amusing. I have illustrious company in my confusion, of course, Many of the great minds of history have brought their power of concentration to bear on the mystery of humour, and, to date, their conclusions are so contradictory and ephemeral that they cannot possibly be classified as

It can have a dramatic effect on your bodys ability to fight off heart
12、disease, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, and weak bones. With remarkable consistency, recent research has found that a diet high in plant-based foodsfruits, vegetables, dried peas and beans, grains, and starchy staples such as potatoesis the bodys best weapon in thwarting many health-
13、related problems. These foods work against so many diseases that the same healthy ingredients you might use to protect your heart or ward off cancer will also benefit your intestinal tract and bones.A:Scientists have recently estimated that approximately 30 to 40 percent of all cancers could be aver
14、ted if people ate more fruits, vegetables, and plant-based foods and minimized high-fat, high-calorie edibles that have scant nutritional value. Up to 70 percent of cancers might be eliminated if people also stopped smoking, exercised regularly, and controlled their weight. In the past, researchers
15、had linked fat consumption with the development of cancers, but they currently believe that eating fruits, vegetables, and grains may be more important in preventing the disease than not eating fat. The evidence about a high-fat diet and cancer seemed a lot stronger several years ago than it does no
16、w, says Melanie Polk, a registered dietitian and director of nutrition education at the American Institute for Cancer Research.B:The road to strong bones is paved with calcium-rich food. Leafy green vegetables and low-fat dairy products are excellent sources of calcium, the mineral that puts stiffne

18、ercise regularlyC:C take non-fat dietD:D control their weight10.To understand how astrology works, we should first take a quick look at the sky. Although the stars are at enormous distances, they do indeed give the impression of being affixed to the inner surface of a great hollow sphere surrounding
19、 the earth. Ancient people, in fact, literally believed in the existence of such a celestial sphere. As the earth spins on its axis, the celestial sphere appears to turn about us each day, pivoting at points on a line with the earths axis of rotation. This daily turning of the sphere carries the sta
20、rs around the sky, causing most of them to rise and set, but they, and constellations they define, maintains fixed patterns on the sphere, just as the continent of Australian maintains its shape on a spinning globe of the earth. Thus the stars were called fixed stars.A:The motion of the sun along th
21、e ecliptic is, of course, merely a reflection of the revolution of the earth around the sun, but the ancients believed the earth was fixed and the sun had an independent motion of its own, eastward among the stars. The glare of sunlight hides the stars in daytime, but the ancients were aware that th
22、e stars were up there even at night, and the slow eastward motion of the sun around the sky, at the rate of about thirty degrees each month, caused different stars to be visible at night at different times of the year.B:The moon, revolving around the earth each month, also has an independent motion
23、in the sky. The moon, however, changes its position relatively rapidly. Although it appears to rise and set each day, as does nearly everything else in the sky, we can see the moon changing position during as short an interval as an hour or so. The moons path around the earth lies nearly in the same
24、 plane as the earths path around the sun, so the moon is never seen very far from th11.Which of the following is true about the motion of the moon?A:A The moon and the sun are moving in the same plane.B:B The moon revolved along the ecliptic.C:C The moon moves faster than the sun.D:D The position of

26、is similar to the revolution of the earth around the sun13.All the other five planets_A:A always appear near the path of the sunB:B are moving in a way more complicated than the earth doesC:C arent moving around the sun as independently as the earth doesD:D are moving around the sun at the same spee
27、d as the earth does14.There is virtually no limit to how one can serve community interests, from spending a few hours a week with some charitable organization to practically full-time work for a social agency. Just as there are opportunities for voluntary service_1_(VSO)for young people before they

This means that working relationships are different from those in commercial organizations, and values may be dif

31、 they must be joined with commitment to the _15_, not business efficiency. Because salaries are _16_ or non-existent many voluntary bodies offer modest expense. But many retired people take part in community service for _17_, simply because they enjoy the work.B:Many community activities possible _1

There are over 80 types of massage therapy. In all of them, therapists press, rub, and otherwise manipulate the muscles and oth
33、er soft tissues of the body, often varying pressure and movement. They most often use their hands and fingers, but may use their forearms, elbows, or feet.

In the 1930s and 1940s, however, massage fell out of favor, mostly because of scientific and technological advances in medical treatments. Interest in massage revived in the 1970s, especially among athletes.B:More recently, a 2002 national
36、survey on Americans use of CAM (published in 2004) found that 5 percent of the 31,000 participants had used massage therapy in the preceding 12 months, and 9.3 percent had ever used it.

42、he Odds: Raising Academically Successful African American Young Women, says that in the interviews he and his co-authors conducted, the overwhelming factor in their childrens academic achievement was that parents inspired and envisioned their childrens success.
