So does laughing help us to live longer? The answer seems to lie in that smiling and laughing help us to become less worri

19、ed and calm, preventing illnesses that are caused by stress. Laughing is really the best medicine.But if you re unhappy, it cant do you any good to smile, can it? That s not true. It is clear that smiling works just in the same way whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked

20、 a group of students to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fearjust using their faces. Changes in the heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were recorded. Most of the feelings they acted didn t cause changes, but when the students smiled, their heart rate and t

21、heir blood pressure went down. That happened even though they were only acting! So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better.Now, what makes us laugh? It seems that the answer to the question is far from simple. Everyone likes jokes, but we dont laugh at the same ones. It depe

22、nds largely on how old we are. There are some jokes, for example, that children love but older people might not find funny.41 In the first paragraph, the word “stress“ can be best explained as “_“.（A）surprise and fear（B） work and duty（C） happiness and sadness（D）pressure and worry42 Which of the foll

26、wer the question “Why do we laugh?“（C） it is not necessary to answer the question “Why do we laugh?“（D）scientists have already answered the question “Why do we laugh?“45 The concept of personal choice in relation to health behaviors is an important one. An estimated 90 percent of all illnesses may b

27、e preventable if individuals would make sound personal health choices based upon current medical knowledge. We all enjoy our freedom of choice and do not like to see it restricted when it is within the legal and moral boundaries of society. The structure of American society allows us to make almost

28、all our own personal decisions that may concern our health. If we do desire, we can smoke, drink excessively, refuse to wear seat belts, eat whatever foods we want, and live a completely sedentary life-style without any exercise. The freedom to make such personal decisions is a fundamental aspect of

29、 our society, although the wisdom of these decisions can be questioned. Personal choices relative to health often cause a difficulty. As one example, a teenager may know the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is socially accepted thing t

30、o do.A multitude of factors, both inherited and environmental, influence the development of health-related behaviors, and it is beyond the scope of this text to discuss all these factors as they may affect any given, individual. However, the decision to adopt a particular health-related behavior is

31、usually one of personal choices. There are healthy choices and there are unhealthy choices. In discussing the morals of personal choice, Fries and Crapo drew a comparison. They suggest that to knowingly give oneself over to a behavior that has a statistical probability of shortening life is similar

32、to attempting suicide. Thus, for those individuals who are interested in preserving both the quality and quantity of life, personal health choices should reflect those behaviors that are associated with a statistical probability of increased vitality(活力) and longevity(寿命).46 The concept of personal

33、choice concerning health is important because_.（A）wrong decisions could lead to poor health（B） it helps raise the level of our medical knowledge（C） it is essential to personal freedom in American society（D）personal health choices help cure most illnesses47 To “live a completely sedentary life-style“

34、 (Para. 2) in the passage means_.（A）to “live a decent life“（B） to “live an inactive life“（C） to “live a life of vice“（D）to “live a life with complete freedom“48 Sound personal health choice is often difficult to make because_.（A）few people are willing to trade the quality of life for the quantity of

35、 life（B） people are usually influenced by the behavior of their friends（C） current medical knowledge is still insufficient（D）there are many factors influencing our decisions49 To knowingly allow oneself to pursue unhealthy habits is compared by Fries and Crapo to_.（A）deliberately ending one s life（B

36、） improving the quality of one s life（C） limiting one s personal health choice（D）breaking the rules of social behavior50 According to Fries and Crapo sound health choices should be based on_.（A）personal decisions（B） statistical evidence（C） friends opinions（D）society s laws50 Many families in the Uni

37、ted States have a larger income now than ever before, but people are finding it difficult to make ends meets anyway. Almost everyone is wondering, “What happens to all my money? I never seem to have anything left to put away. “Why isn t a dollar worth as much as it used to be? One dollar is always w

38、orth the same amount, that is, 100 cents. But the value of a dollar is how much it can buy. The value of money depends on the cost of living. Economists say that the cost of living is the money that a family must pay for the necessities of life such as food, housing or rent, clothes and medical expe

39、nses. For many years now, the cost of living has increased greatly, so the value of the dollar has decreased. When a dollar, has a low value, you cannot buy as many things with it.No one fully understands why the cost of living keeps increasing, but economists believe that workers and producers can

40、make prices go up. As workers earn more money, they have more money to spend, so they demand more goods. If there is a great demand for certain goods, the prices of these goods go up. At the same time, if there s a shortage of goods, the price also goes up. For example, if everyone wants to buy more

41、 and more gas, the price of gas goes up. When companies withhold gas from buyers, they can also make the price of gas go up.Families need to know what happens to their money. They need to make their income meet the cost of living, so many people plan a family budget. A budget is a list of monthly ex

42、penses. If your expenses add up to more than your income, you must find ways to save money. Maybe you re spending too much on entertainment. Or if you re spending too much on clothes, you may want to sew your own clothes. Budgeting helps you spend your money wisely as the cost of living increases.51

43、 What has troubled many families in the United States?（A）A not-large-enough income.（B） Nothing is left over to put away.（C） The increasing cost of living.（D）A shortage of certain goods.52 Why does the cost of living keep increasing?（A）There are always shortages of goods.（B） The workers are getting l

44、ower and lower pay.（C） The government makes no difference.（D）People demand more goods.53 Which of the following is TRUE?（A）Housewives needn t know anything happening to the market.（B） People s lives are affected by the value of money.（C） There seems no need for everyone to know about the rising cost

45、 of living.（D）The prices will go up if more goods are produced.54 According to the passage, when people find it hard to make ends meet, they need to _.（A）find ways to save money.（B） do extra work to earn more money（C） try some other means of making money（D）raise a protest against the high cost of li

46、ving55 Budgeting helps_.（A）one to make his income meet the cost of living（B） the government to battle the rising cost of living（C） merchants to produce more goods（D）the workers to earn more money55 Most people around the world are right-handed. This also seems to be true in history. In 1799, scienti

47、sts studied works of art made at different times from 1500 B. C. to the 1950s. Most of the people shown in these works are right-handed, so the scientists guessed that right-handedness has always been common through history. Today, only about 10% to 15% of the world s population is left-handed.Why a

48、re there more right-handed people than left-handed ones? Scientists now know that a person s two hands each have their own jobs. For most people, the left hand is used to find things or hold things. The right hand is used to work with things. This is because of the different work of the two sides of the brain. The right side of the brain, which makes a person s hands and eyes work together, controls the left hand. The left-side of the brain, which controls the right hand, is the centre for thinking and doing problems. These findings show that more artists should be left-handed
