body language.阅读理解a(2018福州市高三毕业班适应性练习)in this day and age, it may seem that getting two people with different views together to discuss them is a recipe for disaster. just think about what would happen if you sat down and had an open and honest conversation with someone with completely opposing views. could it bring you closer together?however, the human library organization is counting on it.at a human library, people volunteer to become “books” and make their experiences open and available. “readers” are encouraged to ask them questions freely, and theyll get honest answers in return. there are no judgments, and no questions that are off limits. you wont find unpleasant comments, and you wont lose faith in humanity. at the human library, you actually feel better about the world you live in. you might even make a new friend! “the human books consist of people who have been discriminated by society，” said ronni abergel, the human library organizations founder, who has set out to build space for conversations that can challenge prejudices through dialogue. “the most pleasantly surprising thing about it is how close all the human books become to one another，” he said. human libraries help to remind us there really is more, what unites us than divides us. and as events now spread throughout 82 countries, with the human libraries even set to launch soon in pakistan and jordan, you can tell that is a shared feeling.“we can spend billions and billions on trying to build up homeland security and our safety, but real safety comes from having positive relations to other groups in your community，” said abergel. “real safety is not going to come from building walls. its going to come from reaching out and getting to know each other.”【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了human library组织的发展、主旨和活动。【难句分析】“the human books consist of people who have been discriminated by society，”said ronni abergel, the human library organizations founder, who has set out to build space for conversations that can challenge prejudices through dialogue.(第五段第一句)分析：该句为主从复合句。句中“who has set out to build space for conversations that can challenge prejudices through dialogue”为who引导的非限制性定语从句，补充说明先行词ronni abergel；在该定语从句中，“that can challenge prejudices through dialogue”为that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词conversations。译文：ronni abergel说：“真人书是由被社会歧视的人组成的。”abergel是human library组织的创始人，他已经开始为能通过对话来挑战偏见的交谈建立空间。1. what does the first paragraph imply? aheated discussions are often carried out among people. bopen dialogue cant always lead to close relations. cpeople with opposing views are not honest enough. dwe tend to have open dialogue with people around us.答案与解析：b考查推理判断。根据第一段第一句“in this day and age，it may seem that getting two people with different views together to discuss them is a recipe for disaster.”可知，让两个持有不同观点的人来讨论他们的观点似乎是一种灾难。据此可以判断，开放交谈并不总是能让关系亲密，故b项正确。2what will readers get at a human library?aa fair judgment. bunpleasant comments.can available experience. dregaining confidence.答案与解析：d考查细节理解。根据第四段第二句“at the human library, you actually feel better about the world you live in.”可知，在真人图书馆，你会感觉到你所生活的世界更加美好，从而恢复自信。故d项正确。3which of the following can replace the underlined “launch” in para. 6 in meaning?aaccelerate. bsubstitute.csucceed. dstart.答案与解析：d考查词义猜测。根据第六段第二句中的“and as events now spread throughout 82 countries, with the human libraries even set to launch soon in pakistan and jordan”可知，随着该活动在82个国家开展，human library甚至将很快在巴基斯坦和约旦启动。据此可以判断，画线词意为“开始，启动”，故d项正确。4what did abergel advise people to do to get real safety?astrengthen bonds between people.bjoin other groups in the community.cpull down walls between communities.dspend less money on homeland security.答案与解析：a考查细节理解。根据第七段最后abergel所说的话“real safety is not going to come from building walls. its going to come from reaching out and getting to know each other”可知，abergel认为，真正的安全不是来自建筑城墙，而是来自伸出援手和相互了解，故a项正确。b(2018江西赣中南五校高三第一次联合考试)before i studied psychology, i used to 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 laugh and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be.i was attending a standup comedy show in egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their heads off. the main reason why those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. the joke wasnt only funny, but 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 the 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, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.(第三段最后一句) 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 you from making fun of 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.【文章大意】本文主要分析了人们笑的原因。【难句分析】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, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.分析：本句是一个复合句。第一个if引导条件状语从句；that引导定语从句，在从句中作主语，修饰先行词a joke；第二个if引导虚拟条件句。译文：譬如，如果你妒忌你的一个朋友，有人讲了一个有趣同时让你朋友看起来傻乎乎的笑话，那么你有可能比你不妒忌他时笑得更大声。5. what did the author find out about studying psychology?aonly good jokes make people laugh.bmany factors lead to peoples laughing.cfunny things can make people laugh.dlaughter can make people healthy.答案与解析：b考查细节理解。根据第一段第二句“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 joke.”可知，作者在学了心理学之后发现，笑不仅仅是因为事情好笑，还有很多其他的心理因素的促成和影响，故选b。6. why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?athey played a trick on the pedestrians.bthe pedestrians behaved in a funny way.cthey could feel the pedestrians happiness.dtheir emotion was approved of by the show.答案与解析：d考查推理判断。根据第二段最后一句“that is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.”可推知，人们对行人的行为大笑的原因是他们在心理上产生了共鸣，故选d。7. what does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean?aannoy. bblame.clook down on. dmake up to.答案与解析：c考查词义猜测。根据最后一段倒数第二句“i strongly discourage you from making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh.”可推知，动词belittle和短语make fun of是近义词，结合选项可知，应选c。annoy“使恼怒”；blame“责怪”；look down on“蔑视，瞧不起”；make up to“接近，奉承，补足”。8which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?答案与解析：b考查推理判断。结合全文可知，第一段导入话题；第二、三段通过具体事例进行分析；根据文章最后一段的开头“in short”可知，最后一段属于总结；由此可知，本文属于总分总的结构，符合本文结构的图表是b选项。.七选五(2018湖北省部分重点中学高三起点考试)how to avoid a boring conversationwhat excuses should you
