27、 Several recent studies have suggested that women experience laughter more than men. According to medical experts, laughter isn't just about having fun—it actually has many health benefits. Studies have shown that the act of laughing can lower blood pressure, reduce stress and improve immune function(免疫功能).
Not only that, but laughter can also provide benefits similar to that of an anti-depressant. When you laugh, your body releases endorphins(内啡肽)which results in a general feeling of health and well-being. Regular laughter can play a role in helping you to avoid many health problems. Thus, not only do women tend to laugh more than men, they are also more likely to "have the last laugh".
According to a study conducted at the Stanford University of Medicine, gender( 性别)can affect the way that a person's brain responds to humor. The study, which involved the monitoring of 10 men and 10 women watching cartoons, shows that women are more likely than their male peers to use the part of the brain that processes rewards. It seemed that women had lower expectations in regard to a reward (in this case, the reward being the punch-line of the joke or cartoon), which resulted in them enjoying the experience more than the men. Men, on the other hand, seemed to expect that they would find the cartoons humorous, and were therefore more likely to be disappointed and find them less amusing.
Women are more likely to respond to men whom they find humorous and men seem to recognize this and do their best to make women laugh. It has been shown that women are more likely to laugh in the presence of men whom they have an attraction towards and men are more likely to be attracted to women who laugh in their presence because it makes them feel more desirable. Obviously, it is more important to men that a woman appreciates their humor.
【1】The studies show that regular laughter can ______.
A.raise blood pressure B.keep us nervous
C.make immune function worse D.keep us healthy and happy
【2】Why do women experience laughter more than men?
A.Because they like telling humorous stories. B.Because they like watching cartoons.
C.Because they expect little of a reward. D.Because they seldom respond to humor.
【3】From the last paragraph we can infer ______.
A.women dislike humorous men B.men dislike humorous women
C.laughter makes women humorous D.humorous men make women happy
【4】What's the main idea of the passage ?
A.Women enjoy humor more than men
B.Laughter has many health benefits
C.Women laugh more than men
D.Humorous men are popular with women

29、 We humans love to stare into our smart devices. We gaze for hours—about 10 hours and 39 minutes a day—at our computers, smartphones, tablets and televisions. Is all this staring bad for us? It might be, mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.
Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy. While it’s true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances, there’s no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes. But many people still think it is, which is why blue—light—blocking glasses are so popular. So, do the glasses work?
“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye, but there’s no evidence that it may be causing serious damage,” Dr.Rahul Khurana, a clinical spokesman, told Business Insider.
Blue light exposure is nothing new. In fact, the sun is the largest source of blue light. Moreover, blue light is also present in LED light. But if blue light isn’t harmful, then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when we’re looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲劳). More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain. And blue light, it seems isn’t the cause. Instead, our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices. So, if eyestrain is the real issue, blue-light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.
【1】What do we know about blue light?
A.It has the shortest wavelength.
B.It’s a kind of nuclear radiation.
C.It consumes a great deal of energy.
D.It may come from electronic devices.
【2】What causes the popularity of blue-light-blocking glasses?
A.Evidence of their benefits to eyes.
B.Widespread use of smart devices.
C.Belief in blue light’s harmful effect.
D.Scientific understanding of blue light.
【3】What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?
A.Rubbing eyes makes people strained.
B.Blue light exposure is hardly avoidable.
C.Blue light may connect with tired eyes.
D.Eye problems are not easy to deal with.
【4】According to the text, wearing blue-light-blocking glasses may be _______.
A.useless B.harmful C.tiring D.beneficial

She jumped up when she saw me as if to ______ my way. Apologetically(抱歉地) she ______ that she was a ______ at a nearby store and was ______ her lunch break, trying to get a few needed items.

31、课文内容填空
Middle English is the name 【1】(give) to the English used from around the 12th to the 15th centuries. Many things played a part in the 【2】(develop) of this new type of English. The most important 【3】(贡献) was from the Normans, a 【4】 (French speak) people who【5】 (打败) England and took control of the country in 1066. 【6】, the Norman Conquest did not affect English as much as the Angles and the Saxons’ victory about 600 years earlier, which led to Old English 【7】 (replace) Celtic. Even though the Normans spoke French for the e【8】 250 years they ruled England, French did not replace English 【9】 the first language. On the other hand, the English language did borrow many words from French. This resulted in even more words with similar meanings, such as answer (from Old English) and reply (from Old French). It is interesting to learn 【10】 the words for animals and meat developed.
