If you intend using humor in your talk to make people smile, you must know how to identify shared experiences and problems. Your humor must be relevant to the audience and should help to show them that you are one of them or that you understand their situation and are in sympathy with their point of view. Depending on whom you are addressing, the problems will be different.If you are talking to a group of managers, you may refer to the disorganized methods of their secretaries; if you are addressing secretaries, you may want to comment on theirdisorganized bosses.Here is an example, which I heard at a nurses gathering, of a story which works well because the audience all shared the same view of doctors. A man arrives in heaven and is being shown around by an Angel. He sees wonderful accommodations, beautiful gardens, sunny weather and so on. Everyone is very peaceful, polite and friendly until, waiting in a line for lunch, the new arrival is suddenly pushed aside by a man in a white coat, who rushes to the head of the line, grabs his food and stomps over to a table by himself. Who is that? the new arrival asked the Angel. Oh, thats God. came the reply, but sometimes he thinks hes a doctor.If you feel awkward being humorous, you must practice so that it becomes more natural. Include a few casual and apparently off-the-cuff remarks which you can deliver in a relaxed and unforced manner. Often its the delivery which causes the audience to smile, so speak slowly and remember that a raised eyebrow or an unbelieving look may help to show that you are making a light-hearted remark.Look for the humor. It often comes from the unexpected. A twist on a familiar quote If at first you dont succeed, give up or a play on words or on a situation. Look at your talk and pick out a few words or sentences which you can turn about and inject with humor.31:To make your humor work, you are supposed to _. A. make fun of the disorganized people. B. address different problems to different people. C. show sympathy for your listeners. D. take advantage of different kinds of audience32: The joke about the doctors implies that, in the eyes of nurses, they are _. A. very clear about their godlike role B. very busy even during lunch hours. C. impolite to new arrivals D. not fond of having lunch with the nurses33:Whats the possible meaning of the underlined word in paragraph3? _. A. intentionalB. urgentC. unpreparedD. excellent34:To achieve the desired result, humorous stories should be delivered _. A. as casually as possibleB. as awkwardly as possible C. in well-worded languageD. as quickly as possible35: The best title for the text may be _. A. Different Humor methodsB. Various kinds of humor C. Add humor to speechD. Use humor effectively第二节 （共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两处为多余选项。 Linda Bruce thought that her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job. _36_. “I have two kids in college, and I want to say come home, but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Linda. _37_. They asked and received more aid form the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan（贷款）program. They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able to finish school. With unemployment rising, financial（金融） aid administrators expect to hear from families like the Bruce. More students are applying for aid. _38_. So college administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around. _39_. A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1998 to 2015, while average family income increased just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade. Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing. _40_. A. At the same time, tuition（学费）continues to rise.B. They lost their hope.C. The plan fell apart.D. And more families expect to need student loans.E. The government says that money will flow uninterrupted.F. The problem is how to apply for financial aid.G. The Jacobs family did work out a solution.KEY：36-40 CGDAE第四部分 英语知识运用 （共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容或括号内单词的正确形式（每空只能填入一个单词）Last year, I met some really kind people when I travelled to Mogolia.
