With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives．Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps （ 處于沮喪中）, as the saying goes, makes me feel good and warms my heart．

       How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your comer store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with．My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine．This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy （禮貌） to speak to others that are around you．

       I know of a few people that don’t have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say．Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face．They don't get the joke that makes others laugh．I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space．How can people not get a really funny joke?

       Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control．Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy．There is too much sadness in this present world．It drives people crazy．We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives．So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together．

51．According to the author, humor is useful in the aspect that ____________．

       A．it makes people more confident

       B．it can pick up people' s spirits

       C．it can help get rid of the cruelty in the world

       D．it can help people get on well with others

52．The author answers the question in the second paragraph with ___________．

       A．facts and descriptions                         B．evidence and argument

       C．examples and conclusion                    D．stories and persuasion

53．The phrase “busting a gut" in the third paragraph can be replaced by __________．

       A．explaining carefully                        B．speaking loud

       C．keeping silent                             D．laughing hard

54．In writing the passage, the author mainly intends to __________．

       A．talk about his own understanding of humor

       B．encourage people to be humorous in daily life

       C．introduce a practical way to get through daily life

       D．convince people of the power of being optimistic about life

55．What is the author' s attitude towards the present world?

       A．Positive．                                           B．Critical．

       C．Satisfied．                                          D．Indifferent．

Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself．Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself．Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky．Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics．but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves．If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge．it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself．

       Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself．This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think．Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US．Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be．Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world．

       The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes．That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day．Don’t allow doubts to occur in it．

       It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself．Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task．If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor．If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice．If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes．But remember, just because you think it doesn’t mean it’s true．

       The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities．Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image．When you can pat（拍） yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way．Good luck!

41．You need to build a positive self-image when you _________．

       A．dare to challenge yourself                 B．feel it hard to change yourself

       C．a(chǎn)re unconfident about yourself             D．have a high opinion of yourself

42．According to the passage, our serf-images _________．

       A．have positive effects                          B．a(chǎn)re probably untrue

       C．a(chǎn)re often changeable                          D．have different functions

43．How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?

       A．To keep a different image of others．   B．To make your life successful．

       C．To understand your own world．      D．To change the way you think．

44．What is the passage mainly about?

       A．How to prepare for your success．     B．How to face challenges in your life．

       C．How to build a positive self-image．     D．How to develop your good qualities．

45．Who are the intended readers of the passage?

       A．Parents．          B．Adolescents．     C．Educators．      D．People in general．

Why should I teach my children history? That sounds like a stupid question to even ask．But, as I hear different home schooling teachers discuss history, I get the idea that there may be different reasons for teaching history．Let me briefly explain the three good reasons for studying history and two bad reasons for studying history．

       The major reason I see for studying history is that we can learn from the past．I am convinced that the world would be a much better place if more people understood the successes and failures of the past and the thifigs that made these successes and failures．However, as the unfortunately true statement goes "the one thing we seem to learn from history is that we don't seem to learn from history．" Perhaps at least in teaching history, to my children I can do a small part in changing this．

       A second major reason for studying history is that it is hard to understand the current political climate in the absence of an understanding of its historical context．We can- not even understand why we are and where we are without history, much less （更不必說） try to figure out where we are going or how we should get where we want to be．

       I teach my children history, for one more reason．I purchased a set of historical audio （錄音機(jī)） tapes for our children．My seven-year-old son listened to them over and over．It was my hope that he would become inspired by the accomplishments of people like the Wright brothers to accomplish things by himself．I think that it is good that we celebrate the accomplishments of people like Martin Luther King Jr．if, in doing so, young people are called on to stand for the principles that he stood for and accomplish what he accomplished．I also think that by studying people like Adolph Hitler, people can learn to stand against the things that he stood for．

46．What message can we get from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 ?

       A．Many people aren't clever enough to learn well from the past．

       B．Many people fail to make good use of history and make the same mistakes．

       C．Many people feel it hard to understand history．

       D．Many people have no interest in studying history．

47．In Paragraph 3, the author shows that history is useful because _______________．

       A．it makes the current political situation go smoothly

       B．it helps us realize the importance of historical events

       C．it helps us understand why things are the way they are

       D．it helps people accept the present situation where they live

48．Some historical figures are mentioned in the last paragraph to show ______________．

       A．people can be inspired to do good, while also learning to fight against evil

       B．people may also learn from bad historical figures

       C．more celebrations should be held to honor their achievements

       D．today’s people can also achieve what they achieved

49．What would be talked about in the following paragraph?

       A．How to teach history effectively．

       B．Some negative reasons for studying history．

       C．How to get more people to study history．

       D．Some bad historical figures．

50．The main purpose of this passage is to ____________．

       A．ins[me the parents to teach their children history

       B．show the importance of history in politics

       C．explain the reasons why children study history

       D．introduce the writer' s own way of teaching history
