How can we all get more laughter into our lives? Here is what the experts suggest:

1._________Nancy Alguire, a teacher in Clifton Park, N.Y．was once painfully shy and she seldom laughed． Then she married a circus clown (小丑)．“I became interested in the clowns,” she recalls,“ One day I put on a costume and paint my face．That afternoon my whole life changed．I learned to laugh and enjoy life in a way I had never done before.”

2.________ To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing．

3._________It doesn’t take you too much time and can be easy．Collect favorite cartoons and jokes．Also, keep a paper for writing down humor you find in everyday life.“Good ideas come and go fast, you have to capture them quickly or they are gone,” says Virginia Tooper．

Laugh when you need it most.

“4.________” says comedian Bill Cosby.“And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it,” he insists．

Gray Alan, a sociology professor at the University of Minnesota, claims that laughter is a skill we can all gain—because it comes naturally．5._________ Just remember: we are just here for a period, so get a few laughs．

“Do you like doing things for people?”I asked a friend．

“Yes，most of the time,”she replied．

“Most of the time?”

“Well，I love to do things that are unexpected． I like to do little things most people wouldn't think about doing,”she said．

“But why did you say most of the time?”

“Well,sometimes after doing those little things people take advantage of you．I mean，they expect you to do it again．They ask you to do it．That's when I don't like it．”

It was odd that I had this conversation．This just happened to me．I love to do little things．I will pay for a meal card for the people in the office every time we have a meeting there．Not a big thing．It's a little thing．$5.30 will pay for almost five lunches．Hey，big spender!

I also bought a bag of animal crackers for a friend at work．She was having a tough day and not very happy at all．I drove down to the Wal-Mart and picked up a huge bag for under $2.00．Her smile was worth it．

But one week she said,“Bob，we ran out of crackers．We love them so much．” I didn't want to do it．I smiled and she persisted． I finally admitted,“It's different when I do it because I want to，but now you are trying to make me go to get them．It's not the same．”But I bought it for her．

Unfortunately，a big fire in my family took away all the possessions we had． I didn't know what to do and how to do it．What happened to me then surprised me most．I once had my bike repaired，but the repairman said “no charge”on hearing my sufferings．A stranger called James Kennedy read some pieces I'd written about our sufferings for Slate，the online magazine，and wanted to give us a new house across the lake from New Orleans．I refused but I felt moved． Another poet at the University of Florida also wanted to let his house to me free of charge while he was on holiday．My mates gave us more money for us to rebuild my home．When you do something kind for others，do you always get rewarded? Yes，but not in the way you might expect．

The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts（文科） in higher education isn't an either/or proposition（命题），although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM（science，technology，engineering，maths）-related fields can make it seem that way．

The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training，but also states firmly that the study of the humanities and social sciences must remain central components of America's educational system at all levels．Both are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society，become creative leaders，and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great ideas of mankind over time provides．

Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates' job prospects as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs．Under these circumstances，it's natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the problem “Major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some，though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often，in fact，lead to employment and success in the long run．Indeed，according to surveys，employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well，think critically，research creatively，and communicate easily．

Moreover，students should be prepared not just for their first job，but for their 4th and 5th jobs，as there's little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers．The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible．The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight—picked up from science，arts，and technology—to solve the problems of the future，and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves，will be helpful to them and the United States．

1.What does the latest congressional report suggest？

A． STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.

B． Higher education should be adjusted to the practical needs of society.

C． The liberal arts in higher education help enrich students' spiritual life.

D． The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance．

2.What kind of job applicants do employers look for？

A． Those who have a strong sense of responsibility.

B． Those who are good at solving practical problems.

C． Those who are likely to become innovative leaders.

D． Those who have received anall-round education.

3.What advice does the author give to college students？

A． Seize opportunities to explore their potential．

B． Try to take a variety of practical courses．

C． Adopt a flexible approach to solving problems．

D． catch asmany chances as possible to change their jobs.

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。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Millions of people all over the world use the word OK．In fact, some people say the word is used more often than any other word in the world．OK means all right or acceptable．It expresses agreement or approval．

1. Some people say it came from the Native American Indian tribe known as the Choctaw（乔克托语）．The Choctaw word “okeh” means the same as the American word okay．Experts say early explorers in the American West spoke the Choctaw language in the nineteenth century．

But many people doubt this．Language expert Allen Walker Read wrote about the word “OK” in reports published in the 1960s．He said the word began being used in the 1830s． 2. Some foreign-born people wrote “ all correct” as “o-l-l-k-o-r-r-e-c-t”, and used the letters OK．Other people say a railroad worker named Obadiah Kelly invented the word long ago．They said he put the first letters of his name---O and K---on each object people gave him to send on the train．

3. The organization supported Martin Van Buren for president in 1840．They called their group the OK club．The letters were taken from the name of the town where Martin was born---Old Kinderhook, New York．

Then there is the expression A-OK．It is a space-age expression．It was used in 1961 during the flight of astronaut Alan Shepard．He was the first American to be launched into space．His flight ended when his spacecraft landed in the ocean, as planned．Shepard reported, “Everything is A-OK.” 4. One story says it was first used during the early days of the telephone to tell an operator that a message had been received．

There are also funny ways to say okay． 5. These expressions were first used in the 1930s．Today, a character on the American television series “The Simpsons” says it another way．He says okely-doke．

A．Some people say okey-dokey or okey-doke．

B．Still others say a political organization invented the word．

C．Therefore, it has become popular in that area from then on．

D．But many experts don’t agree on what the expression means．

E．Still, language experts do not agree about where the word came from.

F．It was a short way of writing a different spelling of the word “all correct”.

G．However, some experts say the expression did not begin with the space age．
