16.Laugh and the world laughs with you.Even better,you might live longer,a Norwegian researcher reports."Adults who have (48)a sense of humor live longer than those who don't find life funny,and the survival edge is particularly large for people (49)with cancer."says Sven Svebak of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology.He presented his study of about 54,000Norwegians,(50)who/whom he followed for seven years,at the American Psychosomatic Society meeting.At the start,patients filled out questionnaires on how easily they found humor in real-file situations (51)and how important a humorous idea was.
"The study showed the greater role humor played in (52)their lives,the greater their chances of surviving seven years were,"Svebak says."Adults scoring in the top one-quarter for humor appreciation were 35% more likely to be alive (53)than those in the bottom quarter,"he says."The study showed that in a smaller group of 2015people diagnosed with cancer at the start,
(54)when the people having a good sense of humor were compared with those who had a (55)poor/bad sense of humor.,the chance of dying was decreased by about 70%,"Svebak says.
分析 本文作者主要介绍了挪威科技大学的Sven Svebak 的研究发现:有幽默感的成年人比认为生活无趣的人寿命长,这一点在癌症患者身上尤为明显;如Sven Svebak 发现,癌症病人的幽默感越强,他在七年之内活下来的可能性就越大.幽默感得分位居前四分之一的病人生存下来的几率比排在后四分之一的病人高35%;Sven Svebak 对2015名癌症病人的研究表明,幽默感较强的人死亡的几率比缺乏幽默感的人低70%左右.
解答 答案:
48.a 考查固定短语 a sense of humor意为:"幽默感",故用a.
49.with 考查介词 此处在句中后置定语,修饰前面的名词people,是"带有,具有"的意思;故用with.
50.who/whom 考查关系代词 本句为非限定性的定语从句,由于先行词Norwegians指人,在该从句中作宾语;故用关系代词who/whom.
51.and 考查句意理解以及连词 本句的意思是:开始,患者要填写他们是如何很容易地在日常生活中发现幽默以及有幽默的想法是如何重要的问卷;此处表示并列关系,故用连词and.
52.their 考查句意理解以及人称代词 本句的意思是:研究表明,病人的幽默感越强,他在七年之内活下来的可能性就越大;此处指的是刚被诊断为癌症的那2015个人的,即他们的;故用their.
53.than 考查句意理解以及连词 本句的意思是:幽默感得分位居前四分之一的病人生存下来的几率比排在后四分之一的病人高35%;此处用在比较级的句子中,表示两者之间的比较,故用连词than.
54.when 考查句意理解以及从属连词 本句的意思是:幽默感较强的人死亡的几率比缺乏幽默感的人低70%左右;此处指的是:当…时候;故用 when.
55.poor/bad 考查形容词 与此处对应的是the people having a good sense of humor (具有良好幽默感的人),所以此处指的应是:那些缺乏幽默感的人;故用poor/bad.
