Did you ever wonder what occurs inside your body when something funny happens？ What is this thing we have in our brains that makes us say "ha-ha" when someone26abanana？

One way to find out is to watch the brain laugh. That"s what Dartmouth neuroscientist William Kelley did. He and his team had a number of volunteers watch an27of Seinfeld while being monitored by an MRI， a machine that allows researchers to see which parts of the brain are active at any 28 time. They then matched the MRI data with the laugh track to see how the brain changes when it"s 29 something funny. There"s no one "funny center" in the brain——but the findings were pretty.

When subjects were looking at something funny， the two regions in their left hemispheres lit up. From 31 studies these regions are known to be associated with resolving unclear meanings. Is there something in "getting it" that"s 32 the process by which we work with unclear information until we suddenly see the pattern in it？

A couple seconds later two other brain regions became 33， called the insula（岛叶） and the amygdala（扁桃腺）. The insula is associated with 34， so it seems likely that this is the brain feeling good when it gets the joke——the "ha-ha" response. The amygdala is associated with memory formation. As the researchers35，while you may not be able to remember every plot detail in an episode of a soap opera， you can probably remember the jokes. Humor stays with us， forming a lasting memory.

Mark Twain was a famous American writer. He wrote many famous stories and they are still told in many countries today. Mark Twain always liked to tell funny stories. He also liked to listen to funny stories and to play jokes(开玩笑)on his friends. One day, one of his friends didn't have money and asked Mark Twain to pay for his train ticket.

"But I don't have enough money to buy both your ticket and mine, "Mark Twain said.

The friend did not know what to do. He was very sad. "We can do this, "said Twain. "We can get on the train first and when the conductor(售票员)comes to take the tickets, you can hide (躲藏)under my seat. "

Later, however, on the train, when the conductor came to take the tickets, Mark Twain gave him two tickets—one for himself and one for his friend. Then Mark Twain said, " My friend here is a very strange man. When he travels on a train, he does not like to sit on the seat. He likes to lie on the floor under the seat. "

Everybody on the train then looked at the poor man under the seat and started to laugh.

第3题

A married couple was in a car when the wife turned to her husband and asked, " Would you l

ike to stop for a drink？" "No thanks," he answered truthfully. So they didnt stop. The result？ The wife—who had indeed wanted to stop—became irritated because she felt her preference had not been considered. The husband, seeing his wife was angry, became frustrated. Why didn t she just say what she wanted？ Unfortunately, he failed to see that his wife was asking the question not to get an instant decision, but to begin a negotiation. And the woman didn t realize that when her husband said no, he was just expressing his preference, not making a ruling. When a man and woman interpret the same interchange in such conflicting ways, its no wonder they can find themselves leveling angry charges of selfishness at each other. Research shows that the seemingly senseless misunderstandings that haunt our relationships can at least in part be explained by the different conversational rules by which men and women often play. Men grow up in a world in which a conversation is often a contest—either to gain the upper hand or to prevent other people from pushing them around. For many women, however, talking is typically a way to exchange confirmation and support.Women often think in terms of closeness and support, they struggle to preserve intimacy. Men, concerned with status, tend to focus on establishing independence. A cartoon I once saw shows a husband opening a newspaper and asking his wife, " Is there anything you d like to say before I start reading？" We know there isn t—but that as soon as the man begins reading, his wife will think of something. The cartoon is funny because people recognize their own experience in it. What s not funny is that many women are hurt when men don t talk to them at home, and many men are frustrated when they disappoint their partners without knowing why. When we don t see style. differences for what they are, we sometimes draw unfair conclusions ("You don t care about me."). But once we grasp the two characteristic approaches, we stand a better chance of preventing disagreements from spiraling out of control. Learning the other s ways of talking is a leap across the communication gap between men and women, and a giant step toward genuine understanding.

Which of the following words is closest in meaning to "irritated" in Paragraph 1？

A．Silenced.

B．Excited.

C．Angry.

D．Calm.

听力原文：W: I saw a really interesting program on TV last night. It talked about the type

of things that record companies have to be careful with when they come out with new CDs.

M: What do you mean？

W: Well, they have to be very careful not to offend people -- especially parents with young kids who might buy a CD that contained violent content or used strong language.

M: How can that be avoided？

W: Well, don't you remember when that woman -- some senator's wife, I think, made a fuss over this issue？ It's not really a law, but music companies are now encouraged to put a warning label on albums that describe violence or use strong language.

M: I don't understand. Doesn't that reduce the musician's freedom of speech？

W: Not really. Musicians still have a right to free speech, but the message on the label says, "Buyer, be careful: if you get upset by violence and ugly language, don't buy this album." You agree with that, don't you？

M: I don't know. I still think the whole thing is funny and unreasonable. Musicians should have the right to say what they want to say without having to have a warning label put on their music, I mean, who gets to decide what is considered offensive and what isn't, we don't need a sticker to tell us what to do!

(20)

A．Record companies should pay attention not to offend people.

B．Record companies should be very careful with their employees.

C．People should be very careful with their new CDs.

D．Parents should forbid children to buy new CDs.

听力原文：W: You know, I've often wondered why people laugh at the picture of a big belly b

usinessman slipping on a banana skin and falling on his bottom. We are to feel sorry for him.

M: Actually, Laura, I think we laugh because we are glad it didn't happen to us. But of course there is also a kind of humorous satisfaction in seeing somebody self-important making a fool of themselves.

W: Yes, and then there are a lot of jokes about people who are too fat or physically handicapped, you know, deaf, or short-sighted, things like that. After all, it's not really funny to be like that.

M: Oh, I think that's because we're embarrassed. We don't know how to cope with the situation. Perhaps we are even a bit frightened we might get like that, so we laugh. What about the custard pie routine？

W: What do you mean "custard pie routine"？

M: You know, all those old films where someone gets so outraged with his boss, he picks up a custard pie and plasters it all over the other person's face.

W: That never makes me laugh very much, because you can guess it's going to happen. But a lot of people still find it laughable. It must be because it's the sort of the thing we'd all love to do once in a while and never quite have the courage to.

M: I had an old aunt who used to throw cups of tea at people when she was particularly irritated. She said it relieved her feelings.

W: It must have come a bit expensive.

M: Not really. She took care never to throw her best china.

Questions:

19. Why does the man say we laugh when we see some self-important people making fools of themselves？

20. Why do some people joke about those who are fat or handicapped according to the man？

21. Why do many people find it funny to see someone throwing a custard pie on their boss's face？

22. Why did the man's aunt say she would drop cups of tea at people occasionally？

(23)

A．We simply cannot help reacting instinctively that way.

B．We wish to hide our indifference to their misfortune.

C．We derive some humorous satisfaction from their misfortune.
