Dear editor,
I am Wu Gang,a senior high school student,who loves English very much,and I am writing to ask you for help.
I have been learning English hard for about six years and my English teacher often praises me for my excellent performance.However,I am very puzzled when I can’t understand some jokes at all in some English magazines such as Reader’s Digest,although I know all the words.Could you please tell me the reason why I can’t take in the humor in the jokes? Maybe you can give me some suggestions on how to change the situation.
Best wishes to you! I am looking forward to receiving your letter.
Sincerely yours,
Wu Gang

The power of humor and laugher is numerous.They entertain us and make us feel good.But,above all,we have discovered that humor and laughter are the best medicine.They relieve pain,reduce stress and anxiety,and are antiaging and longevity facilitators.
They are extremely necessary for helping us to find and maintain a balance between life and work.However,they are slipping away from us.We have become far too serious.The only ones who still enjoy humor,laughter,fun and play to the fullest are young children.Children tend to laugh an average of 200 times a day.For adults,however,it is a totally different story.
In the 1950s people laughed on average 18 times a day.Today,we are lucky if we average between 4-6 times a day.
As a matter of fact,a recent study found that people laugh 6 more times in the presence of one person but 30 more times in a group of people.You can get a chuckle(咯咯笑) from jokes you get on the Internet,but it is not the same as belly jiggling laughter (a deep laugh) you get when you interact with others.
Socializing with friends and relatives was much looked forward to.However,this is no longer the case.In fact,the majority of people can hardly find time,nor do they have the inclination towards socializing outside home.They turn to electronic media such as television,computers,the Internet,videos,CDs,and audio equipment,which can provide them with instant selfentertainment at the push of a button.
The workplace does not fare(进展) much better.Due to the pressures to produce more in the same or fewer hours available and to compete,for example,in a manufacturing field with cheaper labor elsewhere in the world,humor and laughter in the workplace have gradually eroded(逐渐毁坏) away.
I have developed a real appreciation,perhaps closer to a strong desire for the power of humor
and laughter.This encouraged me to write my first book titled The Power of Humor and subsequently my second book titled Kids Say the Goggonest Things based on the natural humor,laughter,play and fun that kids experience and they freely share with parents,grandparents and teachers.
From writing about humor and laughter,people start to ask me to speak up for them.To date,I have developed a number of humorlaughter topics that I use in my keynote presentations.You are invited to subscribe to my free monthly emagazine “The Humormeister’s Forum” by clicking on the Free Humor Ezine navigation button on the website.

(2017·辽宁铁岭协作体联考)
WELLINGTON,New Zealand(AP)—About 140 pilot whales that stranded(使……搁浅) themselves on a remote stretch of New Zealand beach have died,but conservation workers and volunteers are hoping the remaining 60 or so will survive after they managed to get them refloated,an official said Saturday.
The geography of Farewell Spit on the South Island seems to work against whales,which regularly become stranded there.The stranding of 198 whales on Friday was one of the largest in recent years and inspired 80 workers and volunteers to help out.
By late Saturday,140 of the whales had died,said Department of Conservation area manager Andrew Lamason.
He said the workers and volunteers worked throughout the day to keep the surviving whales watered and covered before refloating them during Saturday night’s high tide.
“We’ve had a really good crew of volunteers,and people have been wanting to come from all over the country,” Lamason said.
He said the surviving whales had moved to deeper water.But he cautioned that although hopes for their survival were high,whales had been refloated in the past only to return and get stranded again.
Lamason said the scale(规模) of the stranding has been tough on the helpers,both physically and mentally.
“It’s very sad,they’re very intelligent animals,” he said.“The common view is that it’s part of nature.”
The focus will now turn to the dead whales,and the enormous task of dealing with the remains,Lamason said,adding that in the past helpers have typically buried them in the sand,but that he’s not sure what the approach will be this time.
He said the department had been experimenting with moving the dead whales into the water,which has the advantage of providing food for other sea creatures.

A.Because they were very busy on Friday.
B.Because the whales were too intelligent.

18.How will the volunteers deal with the dead whales this time according to Lamason?

Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new hotel,the world’s first igloo(冰屋) hotel.
19. (build) in a small town,it has been attracting lots of visitors but soon the fun will
be over.In two weeks’ time,Bergqvist’s ice creation 20. (be) nothing more than a pool of water.“We don’t see it as a big problem,” he says.“We just look forward to 21. (replace) it.”

After their stay,all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success.
26. no windows,nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃,it may seem more like a survival test 27. a relaxing hotel break.“It’s great fun,” Bergqvist explains,“as well as a good start in survival training.”
The 28. (popular)of the igloo is beyond doubt:it is now attracting tourists from all over the world.At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though there are only 10 rooms.
19.答案 Built
解析 考查过去分词做状语。句意为:建立在一个小城镇,冰屋旅馆吸引了很多的游客,但这种乐趣不久就要结束了。这里从句主语和主句主语一致,it与动词build之间是被动关系,故用过去分词built。
20.答案 will be
解析 考查时态。由时间状语“In two weeks’time”可知这里用一般将来时,故用will be。
21.答案 replacing
解析 look forward to期待;to是介词,故这里用replacing。
22.答案 so
解析 so...that...如此……以至于……。句意为:它如此成功以至于Bergqvist设计了现在的这个。故这里用so。
23.答案 which
解析 这里是非限制性定语从句,用which指代先行词the present one(现在的冰屋)。
24.答案 piling
解析 考查句型spend time (in) doing sth.花时间做某事。句意为:六个工人花了八个多星期堆1 000吨雪在木制的底座上面。故这里用piling。
25.答案 was removed
解析 句意为:当雪结冰时,底座被移开。根据句意可知这里应该用被动语态,故填was removed。
26.答案 With
解析 句意为:没有窗户,也没有地方挂衣服。
27.答案 than
解析 考查固定结构more than。句意为:这似乎更像是生存测试而不是在令人放松的旅馆休息。
28.答案 popularity
解析 句意为:冰屋的流行毫无疑问:它吸引着全世界的旅游者。这里应该用popular的名词形式,故填popularity。

答案
I’d like to about my most memorable experience.It was the trip to Australia I had three years with my dance group to participate in international dance festival.It was the
first time I had travelled by plane in my life.My mum worried a lot, everything went smoothly.I stayed there for two and it was the happiest time in my life.Besides our performances there,we much excitement.We spent on almost every morning sunbathing on the beautiful beach and in the blue sea.But Australian nights were I adored most of all.It was a time of joy,light,music and summer parties.
29.答案 talking→talk
解析 考查动词不定式。would like to do sth.想要做某事。故talking改为 talk。
30.答案 before→ago
解析 考查副词。three years ago 3年前。故before改为ago。
31.答案 international前加an
解析 考查冠词。参加一个国际舞蹈节。international的首字母发音为元音,故international前加an。
32.答案 so→but
解析 考查连词。句意为:我母亲很担忧,但是一切进展顺利。前后为转折关系,故so改为but。
33.答案 week→weeks
解析 考查名词单复数。week为可数名词,根据前面的two可知应该用复数形式。故week改为weeks。
34.答案 have→had
解析 本文主要回忆过去发生的事情,故应用一般过去时。故have改为had。
35.答案 去掉on
解析 考查介词。spend为及物动词,后面直接跟宾语。故去掉on。
36.答案 swam→swimming
解析 考查动名词。swimming in the blue sea应该与前面的sunbathing on the beautiful
beach并列。故swam改为swimming。
37.答案 warmly→warm
解析 考查形容词。此处应该使用形容词修饰名词Australian nights。故warmly改为warm。
38.答案 which→what
解析 考查表语从句。本句是一个表语从句,且从句中 I adored most of all缺宾语。故which改为what。
