19、 at age 76.Hawking, whose 1988 book “A Brief History of Time” became an unlikely worldwide bestseller and cemented (奠定) his superstar status, dedicated his life to unlocking the secrets of the Universe. He held the post of Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge, which is a

20、position 5that was once held by Sir Isaac Newton.Born in 1942 in Oxford, where his parents spent the final months of pregnancy to avoid the bombings of London, Hawking was said to have been a good student although it wasnt until he was in his 20s that his true potential began to really shine through

27、DStephen Hawking and his work.CThe British are the most voracious(如饥似渴的) newspaper readers in the world.They read newspapers at breakfast; they walk to the bus reading a newspaper; they read a newspaper on bus, as they go to work; and on the way back home, after work, they are engaged in reading an

28、evening newspaper. There are many“ morning papers“, both national and provincial. The most famous is The Times. Different from what many foreigners believe, this is not a government newspaper. The various newspapers usually have their own views of the Communist Morning Star. The Labor Party and the

29、Trades Union Congress no longer have a daily newspaper to represent them. Bold headlines and a variety of photographs are features of the British press. Some newspapers, such as the sober Daily Telegraph and The Times, use photographs sparingly(节省). The more“popular”newspapers, using the small or “t

30、abloid“(小报) format, such as the Daily Express, the Mail, the Daily Mirror and the Sun, use pictures extensively and also run strip cartoons and humorous drawings, some of which present striking pictorial comment on politics. Besides offering features common to newspapers all over the world, British

31、newspapers specialize in pages devoted to criticism of the arts and a womans page. One feature found in many foreign newspapers is missing in British papers：the serial(连载). Nearly all papers pay special attention to the reporting of sports and athletics. The evening newspapers are often bought becau

32、se the buyer wants to 7know the winner of a race, or to get good tip for a race that is still to be run. There is no censorship(审查) of the press in Britain (except in wartime), though of course all newspaperslike private personsare responsible for what they publish, and can be sued for libel （为诽谤而被起

33、诉） for publishing articles that go beyond the bounds of decency(正派), or for ignorance of court”.

34、ad newspapers at breakfast. BThey read newspapers at work. CThey read newspapers on bus. DThey read newspapers on the way back home.29Many of foreigners think that_.

36、shmen always take every possible chance to read newspapers. BIn Britain, newspapers must be carefully examined by the authorities(当局) before their publication for fear that they present anything offensive. CFew British newspapers publish libelous articles. DThe Times is one of the world-famous newsp

37、apers.DIf you intend using humor in your talk to make people smile, you must know how to identify shared experiences and problems. Your humor must be relevant to the audience and should help to show them that you are one of them or that you 8understand their situation and are in sympathy with their

38、point of view. Depending on whom you are addressing, the problems will be different. If you are talking to a group of managers, you may refer to the disorganized methods of their secretaries; alternatively if you are addressing secretaries, you may want to comment on their disorganized bosses. Here

39、is an example, which I heard at a nurses convention, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and is being shown around by St. Peter. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny weather, and so on. Everyone is very p

40、eaceful, polite and friendly until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rushes to the head of the line, grabs his food and stomps over to a table by himself. “Who is that?“ the new arrival asked St. Peter. “Oh, thats God.“ came the repl

41、y, “but sometimes he thinks hes a doctor.“ If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and itll be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairmans no

42、torious bad taste in ties. With other audiences you mustnt attempt to cut in with humor as they will resent an outsider making disparaging remarks about their canteen or their chairman. You will be on safer ground if you stick to scapegoats like the Post Office or the telephone system. If you feel a

43、wkward being humorous, you must practice so that it becomes more natural. Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff(即兴的)remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner. Often its the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow

44、 or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark. Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on a familiar quote “If at first you dont succeed, give up“ or a play on words or on a situation. Search for exaggeration and understatements. Look at

45、your talk 9and pick out a few words or sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor.32.The story in para. 2 works well because the story teller_A. finds out the nurses problemsB. shows sympathy for the doctorsC. shares the same opinion with the doctorsD. understands the nurses attitude t

46、o the doctors33. The underlined word “twist” probably means _A. action of turning B. laughing matterC. unexpected change D. extended meaning34. It can be inferred from the text that public services _. Ahave benefited many people. Bare the focus of public attention. Care an inappropriate subject for

Understand Various Types of Humor第二节 七选五（共 5 小题：每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as

48、we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit-and that can be a very annoying thing._36_ Read on for some techniques worth trying. 1. _37_ People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimers disease (老年性痴呆症), according

49、 to a recent study._38_ Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.
