Thats how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy.The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr Kataria. “Everyones naturally good at laughing its the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide.Many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health. According to a 5 year study in the body, laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%.So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest I wasnt interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies cant tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects.Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldnt stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if youre under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results!24In which country was the first Laughter Club started?ABritain.BAmerica.CIndia.DAustralia.25How did the writer feel at the beginning of the class?ANervous.BPleased.CSurprised.DStressful.26When did the people in the club begin to laugh for real?AAfter a few days.

It covers 788 square miles and has a population of 1,100,000, about 750,000 Indians, 300,000 Chinese and 20,000 Whites included. They are living together peacefully, although they share such different beliefs as Hindu, Roman Catholic, Muslim and so on.The country can be divided into many parts with different climates all because of its peculiar terrains (地形). In the center there are volcanoes several thousand feet high, and 90% of its arable land is covered with sugarcane.There were no people living on the island before the Dutch landed on it in 1638. The Dutch abandoned it in 1710, and five years later, the French came and succeeded in planting sugarcane there. It was conquered by Britain in 1818. As a result, its official language is English. The main big cities are Beau-Bassin and Mahebourg, with Port Louis as its capital.Mauritius has many rare and unique animals, such as the snakes, parrots and lizards. The giraffe is a type of animal with a very long neck and legs and yellow skin with dark spots. It is the tallest of all living animals.Mauritius was extremely poor when it declared its independence in 1968. In the past ten years, obvious economic prosperity(繁榮) has shown itself in this island country. Nowadays its business, culture and tourism are developing rapidly. Every year, thousands of millions of people rush there to enjoy the silver sand beach and song and dance performances with native national characteristics.28.

A Ma AMA Mau MauDAs Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information, do people remember less? If you know your computer will save information, why store it in your own personal memory, your brain? Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how.In a recent study, Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments. She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory. In the first experiment, they gave people 40 unimportant facts to type into a computer. The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information. The second group understood that the computer would not save it. Later, the second group remembered the information better. People in the first group knew they could find the information again, so they did not try to remember it.In another experiment, the researchers gave people facts to remember, and told them where to find the information on the Internet. The information was in a specific computer folder. Surprisingly, people later remember the folder location better than the facts. When people use the Internet, they do not remember the information. Rather, they remember how to find it. This is called transactive memory According to Sparrow, we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet. Instead, computer users are developing stronger transactive memories; that is, people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access it at a later date. This doesnt mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent, but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing.32. The passage begins with two questions to _.A. describe how to use the Interne. B. show the authors altitudeC. introduce the main topic D. explain how to store information33. What can we learn about the first experiment?A. Sparrows team typed the information into a computer.B. The two groups remembered the information equally well.C. The first group did not try to remember the formation.D. The second group did not understand the information.34. In transactive memory, people _.A. keep the information in mind B. change the quantity of informationC. organize information like a computer D. remember how to find the information35. What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrows research?A. We are becoming more intelligent. B. We are using memory differently.C. We have poorer memories than before. D. We need a better way to access information.第二節(jié)（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。We often close ourselves off when painful events happen in our life.
