9．Laughter makes you feel good．And the good feeling that you get when you laugh remains with you even after the laughter disappears．Humor helps you keep a positive，optimistic outlook through difficult situations，disappointments，an d loss．
More than just a pause from sadness and pain，laughter gives you the courage and strength to find new sources of meaning and hope．Even in the most difficult of times，a laugh---or even simply a smile-can go a long way toward making you feel better．And laughter really is contagious （有傳染的）-just hearing laughter primes your brain and readies you to smile and join in the fun．
Laughter strengthens our relationships by bringing positive feelings and building emotional connections．When we laugh with one another，a positive bond is created．This bond fights stress，disagreements，and disappointment．
Shared laughter is one of the most effective tools for keeping relationships fresh and exciting．All emotional sharing builds strong and lasting relationship bonds．Laughter unites people during difficult times．
Having more humor and play into your daily interactions can improve the quality of your love relationships-as well as your connections with co-workers，family members，and friends．
Laughter is your birthright，a natural part of life that is inborn．Little babies begin smiling during the first weeks of life and laugh out loud within months of being born．Even if you did not grow up in a family where laughter was a common sound，you can learn to laugh at any stage of life．
One essential characteristic that helps us laugh is not taking ourselves too seriously．We've all known someone who takes everything with deathly seriousness and never laughs at anything．No fun there!
The ability to laugh，play，and have fun with others not only makes life more enjoyable but also helps you solve problems，connect with others，and be more creative．People who include humor and play into their daily lives find that it renews them and all of their relationships．
Life brings challenges that can either get the best of you or become playthings for your imagination．When you"become the problem"and take yourself too seriously，it can be hard to think outside the box and find new solutions．But when you play with the problem，you can often transform it into an opportunity for creative learning．

分析 短文主要講了笑對你是有好處，具體介紹了其好處，并介紹了如何把笑聲帶入你的生活中．

解答 71．Benefits/Advantages，考查標題歸納，對應的右欄列出了三個要點：第一點是笑能讓你有勇氣找到生活的意義和希望之源；第二點是笑能讓你克服消極的情緒；第三點是笑能夠維持人際關(guān)系的新鮮感．這三點都是笑的好處（benefits）或益處（advantages）．根據(jù)下一欄"Ways to bring laughter to life"的首字母大寫可知，填入Benefits或者Advantages．
72．Conclusion，考查標題歸納，對應的右欄內(nèi)容是：笑能帶來快樂的生活、解決問題的能力、和他人的良好關(guān)系和更多創(chuàng)新性．右欄是對笑的好處進行了概括總結(jié)，所以左欄應填入Conclusion．
73．strong，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，根據(jù)第二段的"laughter gives you the courage and strength to find new sources of meaning and hope"可知，courage已變成形容詞courageous，strength和courage是并列關(guān)系，要填的詞應是strength的形容詞形式strong．填入strong．
74．create/develop/build，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，根據(jù)第三段的"When we laugh with one another，a positive bond is created．"和需要填入的句子可知，"a positive bond"從被動語態(tài)的主語變成了主動語態(tài)的賓語．歡笑能夠創(chuàng)造（create）/發(fā)展（develop）/構(gòu)建（build）一種積極的聯(lián)系．填入create/develop/build．
75．fight，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，根據(jù)"This bond fights stress，disagreements，and disappointment．"可知，這種聯(lián)系有助于克制（fight）緊張、分歧和失望（等消極情緒）．fight由謂語動詞變成了不定式動詞，填入fight．
76．born，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，根據(jù)"Laughter is your birthright，a natural part of life that is inborn"（歡笑是人生來就有的權(quán)利，生命的一個自然組成部分）．"Humans are _______with the ability to laugh．"意思是"人類生來就有笑的能力"．"生來就有…"表達為"be born with"．填入born．
77．learning，考查細節(jié)理解，根據(jù)"you can learn to laugh at any stage of life"可知，你能夠在人生任何階段學會笑．要填的空格前是介詞by，需要填入動名詞．根據(jù)句意，填入learn的動名詞形式learning．
78．less，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，"One essential characteristic that helps us laugh is not taking ourselves too seriously．"意思是"有助于我們笑出來的一個必要特點就是不要把自己太當回事"．"not taking ourselves too seriously"可以轉(zhuǎn)換成"taking ourselves less seriously"．根據(jù)語境，填入less．
79．enjoyable，考查細節(jié)理解，根據(jù)"The ability to laugh…makes life more enjoyable"可知，笑的能力使生活更加愉快，反過來說，笑能帶來更愉快的（enjoyable）生活．填入enjoyable．
80．connections/relationships，考查詞義轉(zhuǎn)換，根據(jù)"helps you solve problems，connect with others，and be more creative"和"better problem-solving abilities，…and more creativity"可知，填的詞應是名詞，和前后的詞構(gòu)成"和他人更牢固的聯(lián)系或關(guān)系"．因為abilities是復數(shù)，所以填入connections和relationships．

點評 解答任務型閱讀理解題，首先對原文材料迅速瀏覽，掌握全文的主旨大意．因為閱讀理解題一般沒有標題，所以，速讀全文，抓住中心主旨很有必要，在速讀的過程中，應盡可能多地捕獲信息材料．其次，細讀題材，各個擊破．掌握全文的大意之后，細細閱讀每篇材料后的問題，弄清每題要求后，帶著問題，再回到原文中去尋找、捕獲有關(guān)信息．最后，要善于抓住每段的主題句，閱讀時，要有較強的針對性．對于捕獲到的信息，要做認真分析，仔細推敲，理解透徹，只有這樣，針對題目要求，才能做到穩(wěn)、準．

8．College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search．This process can be challenging，especially for those students who had second thoughts about their chosen major and intended career path-or those who majored in a field not directly connected to a specific career．If you are in one of these groups，fear not!Although your major，coursework，and academic performance are relevant to landing a job，they are not the only deciding factors on where you can work．So，just how important is your major to your job search？
Some majors are tied directly to specific career fields．For example，if you wish to become a teacher，you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam．The same applies to majors in nursing．If you did not complete an accredited nursing program，you won't be able to take the nursing licensure exam．In these cases，successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field．
Other majors，however，are closely related to career paths but don't necessarily require a degree in the area．For example，students who majored in finance，math，or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant．Although social work majors are most prepared to provide case management services to struggling populations，students who majored in psychology or sociology can be just as qualified．
Lastly，there are many industries，such as professional sales，education （non-teaching positions），insurance，and customer service management，which hire new graduates from several more majors，looking for more generalized requirements．They may simply want to know the student has completed his or her bachelor's degree，which demonstrates college-level math and writing，critical thinking，and problem-solving skills．
Hopefully，as a college student，you were able to do more than just attend classes．Your non-academic experiences can be very influential on your future career as well．Did you work during college，volunteer，or participate in a club or organization？If so，and if you enjoyed these activities，seek out related careers If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic violence shelter，seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy（辯護）．You may qualify for a position regardless of your major．
Although it often seems like your college major alone determines your career fate，this just isn't the case．It may influence it，but there are other factors that influence your career options as well．If you don't know what career options to consider based on your major，talk to your faculty or academic advisor．You may be surprised at what opportunities await!

67．To be a customer service manager，college graduatesA．
A．need to have related qualities
B．should pass a licensing exam
C．a(chǎn)re required to major in insurance
D．must have relevant experiences
68．What is probably the best tide for the passage？C
A．Major Ups Your Career
B．Why Your College Major Matters
C．How Important Your Major Is to Your Job
D．Major VS Career：Which Is Right for You
69．The writer thinks thatC．
A．majors are closely linked to career paths
B．students of science tend to receive higher salaries
C．volunteer experiences help graduates get employed
D．social work graduates have more employment opportunities
70．Which of the following shows the organization of the passage？B

4．The UK government has begun a campaign to help people with disabilities get into the workplace．The campaign includes a plan to offer disabled young people new internships（實習）and training to help them find jobs．Ministers want firms to change their employment policies after government research showed that employers'attitudes were a barrier to disabled people．
An advertising campaign for the initiative（倡議）was announced to the public in London on Thursday at a disability employment conference．The campaign will ask employers to recognize the talents that disabled people can offer，and"challenge some of the prejudices．"
Prime Minister David Cameron said，"This isn't just about doing what is right for disabled people．Employing disabled people makes business sense，too．We need to deal with the complexities of employing disabled people，or put it more simply，to give employers more confidence．"
As part of the new initiative，a government-funded scheme will be available to 16-to 24-year-olds who have complex learning difficulties and disabilities．Youngsters who sign up for an internship，which will be run by further education colleges，will get help from expert career coaches and work for at least six months．Under these"traineeships"，young people will get assistance in writing a CV，interview practice，work placements of up to five months and training in English and maths．Employers will also be given help from the same coaches and encouraged to take on disabled young people．
There are nearly seven million disabled people of working age in the UK，and their employment rates have increased slightly over the past decade，from 42.2% in 2002 to 46.3% in 2012．
Last year，the government announced that 27 Remploy factories，which provide employment opportunities for disabled people，were to close．The closures followed advice by an independent review into the way the government spent its disability employment budget．It suggested that the government should use the budget to support individuals，rather than factory businesses．
26．According to government research，what has been making it difficult for disabled people to get jobs？C
A．Lack of training．
B．Their disabilities．
C．Employers'attitudes．
D．Lack of government support．
27．Prime Minister David Cameron thought the campaignC．
A．is not to do what is right for disabled people

A．Disabled youngsters who sign up for it．
B．Disabled youngsters in colleges who want to find a job．
C．Disabled youngsters who are poor at English and maths．
D．Disabled youngsters with at least six months'work experience．

A．There are about seven million disabled people in the UK．
B．There were more disabled people in the UK in 2012 than in 2002．
C．The employment rate for disabled people has greatly increased since 2002．
