When Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, “Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on.” Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls. 

The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom, “I don't know how to use a computer,” she admits. 

Unlike her 1995 autobiography(自傳), After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. “I felt there was a need for a book like this,” she says. “I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease.” 

But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow up ---again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet. 

Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. “Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other,” she insists. “It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want to speak out and be as helpful as I can be.”

1.Why did Mary feel regretful? 

A. She didn't achieve her ambition. 

B. She didn't take care of her mother. 

C. She didn't complete her high school.

D. She didn't follow her mother's advice. 

2.We can know that before 1995, Mary __________.

A. had two books published

B. received many career awards

C. knew how to use a computer

D. supported the JDRF by writing 

3.Mary's second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her__________ . 

A. living with diabetes                    B. successful show business 

C. service for an organization                     D. remembrance of her mother 

4.When Mary received the life-changing news, she_____________ . 

A. lost control of herself                                     B. began a balanced diet 

C. tried to get a treatment                                  D. behaved in an adult way 

5.What can we know from the last paragraph?

A survey by an international temporary service agency found that U．S．managers believe that people with a sense of humour do better at their jobs, compared with those who have little or no sense of humour．In fact, about 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humour do better.

The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humour may help light-hearted employees keep their jobs during tough times． And, what's more, it may push them up the corporate ladder past their humourless colleagues．Why? It seems that those with a sense of humour are better communicators and better team players.

Studies have shown that happy workers are more productive． In fact, a researcher at California State University found that humour could help the employees to release tension.

Research done by psychologist Dr．Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humour helps us think．When people feel stuck on important projects, they tend to feel angry or depressed． According to Dr．Trice's research, taking time out to laugh can help us to get rid of negative feelings and allow us to return to a task or move on to another project unaffected by past defeat.

If humour is really this important, then why don't we use it more often on the job? Most likely, the main reason is that many people are unaware of the positive effects of humour in the workplace． However, it is important to realize that some humour is not suitable for the workplace, and that it is often used at wrong times.

1.Most people think a sense of humour can ________.

       A．help you to do your work better            B．make you have a rich life

       C．make you pleased with your work       D．help you to make more friends

 

2.Many people don't use humour more in the workplace because __________.

       A．they like keeping silent when working

       B．they don't know the positive effects of humour

       C．they think they should obey the rules

       D．they don't like joking or laughing

3.A person without a sense of humour is easier __________.

       A．to feel surprised                                  B．to get along with

       C．to be worried                                      D．to be successful

4.What is probably the best title for the article?

       A．People with a Sense of Humour.           B．Humour Is Important in the Workplace．

         C．Humour and Humourless.          D．Everyone Likes Humour.
