本文为一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一名护士让自己的孩子待在车里,自己去救助受伤乘客的故事。
【1】考查定语从句。句意:珍妮的职业是护士,她正开车送她六岁的儿子托尼去上钢琴课。分析句子,本句为定语从句,先行词是Jenny,为人,whose引导定语从句。故填whose。
【2】考查名词。句意:珍妮最近帮忙做了一个手术。分析句子结合前文不定冠词a可知,本处用名词,operate的名词形式为operation。故填operation。
【3】考查副词。句意:当珍妮轻踩刹车时,另一辆车失去控制翻车,侧翻撞上了一根电线杆。分析句子可知,修饰动词rolled用副词,wild的副词为wildly。故填wildly。
【4】考查名词。句意:小男孩不应该看到那样的场景。分析句子可知,谓语动词see后用名词作宾语,scene是可数名词,表示“场面;场景”,根据语境,用复数形式。故填scenes。

【7】考查过去分词。句意:其中一个女孩伤得很重,死了。分析句子可知,injure作状语,女孩与受伤为逻辑上的被动关系,且受伤先于死亡,故所填空处用过去分词或者现在分词的完成被动式。故填Injured/Having been injured。
【8】考查时态。句意:珍妮迅速地对这个少年头部的伤口施加压力。结合全文可知,文章基调为一般过去时,用 apply的过去式。故填applied。

Humor
If you see humor as an optional form of entertainment, you’re missing some of its biggest benefits: Humor makes average-looking people look cute and uninteresting people seem entertaining. Studies show that a good sense of humor even makes you seem smarter.
Best of all, humor raises your energy, and that can have an effect on everything you do at school, at work, or in your personal life. The increase of energy will even make you more willing to exercise, and that will raise your overall energy even more.
Humor also transports your mind away from your daily troubles. Humor lets you better understand life and sometimes helps you laugh at even the worst of your problems.
In my experience, most people think they have a sense of humor, and to some degree that’s true. But not all senses of humor are created equal. So I thought it would be useful to include some humor tips for everyday life.
You don’t have to be the joke teller in the group in order to show your sense of humor. You can be the one who directs the conversation to fun topics that are ripe for others to add humor. Every party needs a straight person. You’ll appear fun and funny by association.
When it comes to in-person humor, effort counts a lot. When people see you trying to be funny, it frees them to try it themselves. So even if your own efforts at humor fall short, you might be freeing the long kept humor in others. People need permission to be funny in social settings because there’s always a risk that comes with humor. For in-person humor, quality isn’t as important as you might think. Your attitude and effort count a lot.
Some people--and I was one of them--believe that humorous complaints about the little problems of life make humor, and sometimes that is the case. The problem comes when you start doing too much complaint-based humor. One funny observation about problem in your life can be funny, but five is just complaining, no matter how smart you think you are. Funny complaints can wear people out.
Self-deprecating(自嘲式) humor is usually the safest type, but here again you don’t want to overshoot the target. One self-deprecating comment is a generous and even confident form of humor. You have to be at least a bit self-assured to laugh at yourself in front of others. But if you do it too often, you can transform in the eyes of others from a confident joker to a Chihuahua dog.
