Nowadays, stand-up comedy is popular all over the world. Doctors have been researched what effect stand-up and other forms of comedy have to us. They have discovered people laugh a lot live longer. They say this is because when you laugh, your brain sends chemical around your body that are good for you. Laughing helps your body stay health and can even helped you fight pain. Maybe this explains the long lives of men like Bob Hope or George Burns. Whichever the reason is, research shows in the end, the English saying, ‘Laughter is the best medicine’, may be true after all. So, go and make someone to laugh—it just might help you live much longest.

【答案】去掉been

on → to

people后加who/thatlaugh → laughing

chemical → chemicals

health → healthy

helped → help

or → and

Whichever → Whatever

去掉to

longest → longer

【解析】

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了笑对我们的健康有益。

第一处:考查语态。句中主语Doctors与动词research之间为主动关系,所以用主动语态。故去掉been

第二处:考查短语。句意:医生们一直在研究单口喜剧以及其他形式的喜剧对我们会产生什么样的影响。句中考查短语have an effect on对……有影响。故将on改为to

第三处:考查定语从句或非谓语动词。此句可以用定语从句,句中先行词为people,指人,在定语从句中作主语,所以用关系代词who/that;此句也可以用非谓语动词,名词people与动词laugh之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词作定语。故在people后加who/thatlaugh改为laughing

第四处:考查名词的数。名词chemical为可数名词,且是定语从句的先行词,根据定语从句谓语动词用复数形式,可知chemical用复数形式。故将chemical改为chemicals

第五处:考查形容词。stay作系动词用,后接形容词形式。故将health改为healthy

第六处:考查动词。情态动词can后接动词原形。故将helped改为help

第七处:考查连词。句意:可能这就解释了像鲍勃·霍普和乔治·伯恩斯这些人长寿的原因。举例的两个人为并列关系,非选择关系。故将or改为and

第八处:考查让步状语从句。句意:不论是什么原因,研究表明,归根结底,英语俗语“笑是最佳良药”可能是对的。Whatever引导让步状语从句,表示“不管什么,无论什么”。而whichever表示“无论哪一个”。故将Whichever 改为 Whatever

第九处:考查动词用法。动词make用法为make sb. do sth.让某人做某事,后接省to的不定式。故去掉to

第十处:考查形容词比较级。句意:这样可能有助于你更长寿。much后修饰形容词比较级。故将longest改为longer

【题目】 Kevin Adkins admits that when he lacks confidence, he uses big words to appear smarter, of which most people don’t know the meaning. “Only when I need to impress the person. I prefer using big words,” says the 45-year-old.

Adkins is not alone. Many people use longer words in place of shorter ones because they know, consciously or unconsciously, that when others form impressions of them after a glance or a short conversation, they often work harder to give the “right” impression. “People think, if I can show that I have a good vocabulary, I’ll sound smarter says Daniel Oppenheimer, PhD, a professor of psychology at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh. However, if the listeners do not understand those long words, he adds, it will leave a bad impression instead.

The truth is that it can easily go wrong. “It’s almost a game that two people are playing,” says Eric Igou, PhD, a social psychologist at Ireland’s University of Limerick. “If the observer, person B, doesn’t have the same theory, it can backfire.” Person A may be regarded as showing off instead of being intelligent.

Using big words may also confuse listeners, which is definitely moving in the wrong direction, “People associate intelligence with clearness of expressions,” says Oppenheimer. That’s especially true when it comes to the written word. A small study in Applied Cognitive Psychology (应用认知心理学) found that the more writers tried to sound smart, the less intelligent they were considered to be.

So what can you do to sound smarter? Speak clearly and directly. Leave the dictionary at your desk.

1Why does Kevin Adkins prefer saying big words sometimes?

A.He wants to make himself more easily understood.

B.He believes that it is cool.

C.He enjoys the feelings of being mysterious.

D.He hopes that what he says sounds smart.

2What is Professor Oppenheimer’s attitude towards the behavior of using big words?

A.Disapproving.B.Favorable.

C.Indifferent.D.Cautious.

3What does Eric Igou mean by saying “it can backfire” in paragraph 3?

A.It can catch fire.B.Person B can fire person A.

C.It can deliver an opposite effect.D.The observer can also fight back.

4What can we learn from the small study in Applied Cognitive Psychology?

A.The writer who never uses big words is more intelligent.

B.The writer who uses big words the most is the most intelligent.

C.People like the writers who only use short and clear expressions.

D.The writers should avoid using big words often in their writings.
