11、 think that people would laugh when funny things occurred. While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him lau
12、gh and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be. I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them f
13、elt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasnt only funny; it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of th
14、e psychological support they got. The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid,
15、then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him. In short, we dont laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage making fun of
16、anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a persons emotions, he will certainly like it a lot. 21. What did the author find out after studying psychology? A. Only good jokes make people laugh. B. Laughter can make people healthy. C.
17、Funny things can make people laugh. D. Many factors lead to people laughing. 22. Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians? A. They played a trick on the pedestrians. B. The pedestrians behaved in a funny way. C. Their emotion was approved of by the show. D. They could feel the pedestrians
18、happiness. 23. What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean? A. Praise. B. Blame. C. Make up to. D. Look down on. B 试卷共 8 页 第 - 4 -页 Money with no strings attached. Its not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills atta
19、ched to it with pins and a sign that read, “Give What You Can, Take What You Need.“ People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and social-economic (社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took, ”said Tyler Bridges of The Tool
20、box, which created the project. “We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars.“ Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip(片段)shows one man who had found a $ 20 bill pinning it to the board.
21、 “What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said. “Theres a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most.“ Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much
22、 as they could. While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet. “After all, everyone has bad days and good day
