There is an English saying, “Laughter is the best medicine.”51   Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. 52  It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
53 In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group that tolerated (忍受)the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 54 
In this way55   they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really fell like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
A．The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.
B．Until recently, few people took the saying seriously.
C．Laughter and physical exercise have similar effects on the human body.
D．It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.
E. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics.
F. Laughter could produce a kind of chemical.
G. Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.

Boys do worse in English when there are girls in their class, a research student said. This finding disagrees with the widely held belief that girls always have a good influence on boys in school.
Boys do best with as few girls as possible in English lessons at primary and secondary schools, Steven Proud, a research student at Bristol University, told the Royal Economic Society’s conference.
But when it comes to math and science, both boys and girls at primary schools achieve up to a tenth of a grade higher when there is a greater percentage of girls in the class, Proud found.
Proud kept a record of boys’ and girls’ test results at the ages of 7, 11, and 16 in 16,000 schools in England. He studied the test scores to see whether the percentage of girls made a difference to the results of both boys and girls in math, science and English.
Boys always perform worse when the number of girls they study English with increases, which is especially the case at primary schools. Proud also found that girls are unaffected by the number of boys in their English class.
Proud said boys may do worse in English when there is high proportion of girls in their class because they think that the girls are better than them. It could also be that teachers use teaching styles more appropriate to girls when there more girls than boys in the class.
Proud argues that his results show boys should be taught English in single—sex classes.
However, Professor Alan Smithers, director of the Centre for Education and Employment Research at the University of Buckingham, said, “Boys may be discouraged by how well girls are doing in English, but you can’t say that it means boys and girls should be separated. It has very little practical importance to schools.”

認(rèn)真閱讀下列短文，并根據(jù)所讀內(nèi)容回答問(wèn)題。
American pilot Frank Webb first flew a glider at the age of 14, made his first flight alone on his．16th birthday and got his commercial pilot's licensee （執(zhí)照）on his 18th birthday．
After serving in the US Navy for 20 years, being a Boeing flight instructor, and working with Alaska Airlines for more than three years, Webb signed a contract with Shenzhen Airlines last May to captain domestic routes in China．As an experienced pilot, he still feels the same nervousness as he felt on his first fight.
Captain Webb said that the "Sept．11" incident did not have a direct influence on his decision to move to China to work．"Safety is in fact tighter in the United States and I am not worried about a terrorist attack," he said．"The main reason I came to China was that my children will have a chance to see the world and experience international living．"
Webb has not experienced any in-flight emergencies（緊急情況） during his term in China although he said the weather here was generally more changeable than in the United States．"The weather changes tend to be great from north to south．We may be flying in a snow storm in Harbin, and then later that same day we may be flying through a tropical rain shower approaching Shenzhen," Webb said．
While Webb had more flexibility（靈活性） to deal with the weather in the United States, he said air traffic control in China was more strict and allowed fewer deviations（偏離）．
Speaking of planes often being late in China, Webb said that in America, being late was one of the few things that would get him in trouble．"In China, on the other hand, it seems there are many things that can get you in trouble with the boss, but being late is not one of them．" Webb does everything in his power to keep his flights on schedule．
"They provide really excellent service during flights．Western flight attendants just serve passengers．But the Chinese attendants will also check on the crew to see if we need anything," Webb said．
小題1:Why did Webb sign a contract with Shenzhen Airlines? （no more than 20 words）
小題2:What is "glider " （in Paragraph 1）? （no more than 5 words）
小題3:What in the flight Webb met in China increased his difficulty? （no more than 5 words）
小題4:Is Webb's flight often late? Why? （no more than 20 words）
小題5:What can you learn from Webb's words in the last paragraph? （no more than 10 words）

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
71 Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷爾蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. 72.
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
73 They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “74Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
Doctors say that a good way to deal with anger is to find humor in the situation that has made you angry. 75
A．In general ,the person feels excited and ready to act.
B．They said that laughter is much healthier than anger.
C．Expressing anger violently is more harmful than repressing it.
D．Anger may cause you a cancer.
E. Do not express your anger while angry.
F. Anger is a normal emotion that we all feel from time to time.
G. Doctors say the solution is learning how to deal with anger.

（共5小題；每小題2分，滿分10分）
根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從下框的A---F選項(xiàng)中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
A.The spreading tea
B.The history of tea growing
C.Changes of tastes for drinks
D.Reducing cancer risks
E.The plant Camellia sinensis
F.A woman’s opinion of tea
61. _____________________________
Americans are far more knowledgeable about drinks than they were 20 years ago. Witness the Starbucks revolution and you’ll know where the trend goes. Now, encouraged by recent studies suggesting that it can cut the risk of cancer and heart disease and slow the aging process, tea is enjoying a similar change. Enough fashionable tea houses are springing up to make even longtime coffee drinkers consider switching drinks.
62. _____________________________
Tea is available in more places than ever. The Tea Association of the United States reports that from 1990 to 1999, annual sales of the drink grew to $4.6 billion from $1.8 billion. “Green tea is seen by consumers as a ‘functional food’” — delivering health benefits beyond food itself, says Vierhile.
63. _____________________________
Recently published studies point out that only teas that come from the leaves of the plant Camellia sinensis have been shown to contain health benefits. Other herbal teas may taste good, yet they do little more than warm up the drinker. But for Camellia sinensis, the evidence is powerful. In a 1998 study, Harvard University researchers found that drinking one cup of black tea a day lowered the risk of heart attack by as much as 44 percent compared with non-tea drinkers, and other studies have suggested that the antioxidants (抗氧化劑) in these so-called real teas can also prevent cancer.
64. _____________________________
One such antioxidant in green tea is ECGC, a compound 20 times as powerful as vitamin E and 200 times as powerful as vitamin C. “When people ask me for something good and cheap they can do to reduce their cancer risk, I tell them to drink real tea,” says Mitchell Gaynor, director of medical oncology at New York City’s Strang-Cornell Cancer Prevention Center.
65. _____________________________
Among those inspired to become a green-tea drinker is Tess Ghilaga, a New York writer who took it up after seeking advice from a nutritionist six years ago. “I’ve never been a coffee drinker,” says Ghilaga, 33. “She told me to start drinking green tea for the antioxidant qualities.” Now Ghilaga and her husband habitually make tea — they order theirs from InPursuitofTea.com, an Internet tea company. And although tea contains about half the amount of caffeine in a cup of coffee, “you still get such a kick from it,” says Ghilaga.
