第三十组 (建议用时：45分钟).阅读理解what is funny? the short answer is：who knows? the joke that causes a burst of laughter from one listener might be met with a puzzled look from another.in general, you should avoid jokes at any business or social gathering where there are more than two people in your conversation group.if there are only two people and they consist of you and your best friendgo ahead and tell it.admittedly, a few people possess a perfect sense of timing，appropriateness, and joke delivery. you are probably not one of them.you might be quite funny and have many great jokes.but theres a place for jokes over dinner with family or hiking with friends, but business or social affairs with colleagues and acquaintances (熟人) are not it.it takes a whole other level of joketelling ability to put a joke into the more formal conversations.the best jokes come into the conversation so that by the time listeners realize a joke is in progress, the punchline that produces humour is being delivered to their surprise and delight.jokes dont translate well when youre in a group with mixed backgrounds：those whose first language is not english, those who might not understand a special term or an “in” expression, young people who wouldnt catch a reference to some bit of culture familiar to older peopleand vice versa (反之亦然)never joke about another person in the groupabout their name，habits, hometown, profession, appearance, or past.its not a question of whether the joke is cheery or appropriate.no one enjoys being singled out this way.when you are the subject of the joke, the laughter doesnt feel good no matter how hard you try to tell yourself theyre not laughing at you.because thats what it feels like.what do you say if you realize your joke upsets someone？apologize briefly and as sincerely as you can, and hope that someone changes the subject.try saying：“im sorry.i should have known better.” or “im sorry.i wasnt thinking.”what do you do if people dont get your joke or dont appear to find it as funny as you do? first, do not retell it, only louder this time, hoping the point of the joke will be seen.second, dont try to push people to get it.people do not like people whose jokes they dont understand.they feel stupid and need to blame someone.if you want to leave with the goodwill of your listeners, say something to make them feel less foolish.you could say：“i dont know why i tell jokes when im so poor at it.”the world needs laughter, and good humour is a success wherever it goes, so this caveat (告诫)about joke telling is not meant to dampen high spirits or to advocate dull conversation.if youre a gifted story teller and you know people love your jokes, go for it.we need your kind.the rest of us will save our jokes for family and close friends.1according to

to the table with a solution.with a new year approaching, many people have an “out with the old and in with the new” mentalityand work is usually a big part of that.if youre feeling that way, here are several tips that can help you become better at your job in 2014.1_one of the most common mistakes made by both managers and, employees today, is that too often, both are afraid to come to the table and talk about essential issues.taylor says, “fear of conflict is so overwhelming(无法抵抗的)，but if you communicate bravely, more frequently, and honestly in 2014, and youre not afraid to work through conflict, youll likely reduce your stress and be a better worker.” too much time is spent reflecting on misunderstood employee communications, which, if left unaddressed, eventually leads to conflict.2_“your boss controls your destiny(命运)so its in your best interest to get to know them better both personally and professionally，” says andy teach, author of from graduation to corporation：the practical guide to climbing the corporate ladder one rung at a time.“it doesnt mean you need to be friends with them or hang out with them, but you do need to learn what makes them tick.the more you communicate with your boss, the better it is for you.”3_“share ideas with context and a clear path for implementation(执行)for the leader to evaluate.the more you present any issues with recommended solutions and then implement those solutions in a timely and effective manner, the more the leadership team will rely on you and think about you for future projects and new responsibilities，” meador says.4_if youre already an overachiever, have been called a “workaholic”，or are generally exhausted，then you need to slow down and break the habit of setting impossible goals for yourself in the new year.you may have to readjust and expect, say 75% of your workload to be achieved in a set period in order to feel fulfilled.if youre a manager, this approach may take some of unnecessary pressure off staff, too.5_“your industry is changing all the time and you need to keep up with whats happening now，” teach says.most industries have trade magazines or websites that have the latest news in that industry.its important to read these so that you are well informed and can discuss recent industry events and changes with your coworkers, supervisors，and management.information is power.书面表达你们学校将于2016年10月1日举行建校100周年校庆活动。假设你是校学生会主席李华，现将代表全体学生邀请学校优秀毕业生陈明(现于清华大学学习)回校参加校庆典礼活动。请根据以下要点写一封电子邮件向陈明发出邀请。1.
