More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle defined (定义) jokes as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by showing we’re better than someone else in a certain way. According to Aristotle and many other philosophers,all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons — that is,putting it clearly,on showing that they are worse off than ourselves. Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves at someone else’s expense. Showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes. Someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us. We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone sliding on a banana skin. The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society. This is probably the reason why some of the jokes,especially those involving cruelty,are so popular with certain people. Besides,all jokes depend on our enjoyment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it’s different from things which are happening around it. The same situation can be either sad or pleasant,depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is. If a girl in a bathing suit falls into a swimming pool,we don’t laugh because nothing unusual has happened. But if a man in a smart suit falls in,the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh. A good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happens,and so we laugh. 73. The underlined word “inferiority” (in Paragraph 1) means ______. A. something that is not as good as something else B. something that is better than something else C. someone that is not as good as someone else D. someone that is better than someone else 74. What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. Showing we are better than other people is the only one reason we like jokes. B. When people are angry, they would like to hear jokes. C. People who like jokes are usually cruel. D. To express those attitudes usually unacceptable to society is one of the reasons we like jokes. 75. What will a good joke-teller always try to do? A. Make a sad situation into a pleasant one. B. Make different things happen at the same time. C. Make an unexpected thing happen in an expected situation. D. Make people laugh at something unusual and out of place. 2010年曲靖一中高一下学期期末考试 英 语 第二卷 第四部分写作(共两节,满分35分) 第一节短文改错(共l0小题;每小题l分,满分l0分) 此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断:如无错误,在该行右边横线上画一个勾(√);如有错误(每行只有一个错误),则按下列情况改正: 此行多一个词:把多余的词用斜线划掉,在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉。 此行缺一个词:在缺词处加一个漏字符号,在该行右边横线上写出该加的词。 此行错一个词:在错的词下划一横线,在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。 注意:原行没有错的不要改。 As summer vacation are coming soon, my classmates are 76._____ trying very hardly to get train tickets to go home.

First, it helps to keep us fit. We all need fresh air. But air is never so fresh as early in the morning. Besides, by taking morning exercises we can improve our health. Second, it can help us in our studies. In the morning we can learn more quickly. Third, it can enable us to plan our work for the day. We cannot work well without a proper plan. Early rising can also give us enough time to get ready for our work. So we say that those who always get up late should make great effort to get up early. (责任编辑:admin) |
