34、I was at school, I played some football and rugby (橄榄球). I hated rugby because I couldnt catch the ball, but I enjoyed football.

35、ccepted me as a player, not a fantastic one, but one who wouldnt do anything stupid.When I was at university, I stopped playing sports altogether.

40、was too violent for school kids.DIt was hard for him to catch the ball.答案与解析：D细节理解题。由第一段中的“ I hated rugby because I couldnt catch the ball”可知，作者不喜欢橄榄球是因为他总接不到球。25What did the author do when he was at university?AHe gave up smoking.BHe tried to lose weight.CHe led an unhealthy lifestyle.DHe joined a

41、running club.答案与解析：C细节理解题。由第二段可知，上大学后，作者什么运动都不做，虽然学习很勤奋，但却吃得多，还染上抽烟的恶习。因此那时的他，生活方式很不健康。26Why did the author feel good about the physical pain?AHe didnt feel tired at all.BIt was a good way to relax.CIt was a good start towards getting fit.DHe found the true meaning of running.答案与解析：C推理判断题。由第三段中的“I j

Well, you might want to reconsider

44、. The story is told of a businessman who gave a speech in a foreign country through an interpreter (口译员). Without warning the interpreter, he told a joke during the presentation. The interpreter knew the joke would not translate, so she said, “This man just told a joke that he thinks is funny, but i

45、t does not translate well, and you will not find it funny at all. So, when I stop talking, everyone please just laugh.” The audience did indeed laugh aloud, but not for the reason the speaker supposed. The businessman was so pleased with the first result that he went on to tell another joke. Each cu

46、lture has different understandings of humour. What may be funny in one culture can be far from funny in another. For example, while living in Chile, I often tried to share great jokes from the United States, only to be met with questions like, “Oh, is that a joke? Is that funny in your country？” Sim

47、ilarly, Chileans shared their own popular jokes that were not always funny to me. In September 2001, Professor Richard Wiseman and the British Association for the Advancement of Science created a project called LaughLab in order to find the worlds funniest joke. And in one year, LaughLab received mo

48、re than 40,000 jokes. The following joke is considered the worlds funniest joke by LaughLab：“Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls down. He doesnt seem to be breathing. The other man calls the emergency services. He says, My friend is dead! What can I do？ The operator says, Calm do

49、wn. I can help. First, lets make sure hes dead. There is a silence, then a shot (枪声) is heard.

Otherwise, the joke may be on you.【语篇解读】本文是说明文。幽默与文化

50、紧密联系，不同文化的幽默方式不同，对幽默的理解也不同。28Why did the audience laugh?AThe joke was funny.BThey were told to do so.CThe interpreter made a mistake.DThe businessman was humorous.答案与解析：B细节理解题。由第二段中的“when I stop talking, everyone please just laugh”可知，口译员告诉听众这个笑话没办法翻译，所以等自己停止说话后，观众大笑即可。29How did the businessman feel

51、after finishing the joke?AStupid. BStrange.CMoved. DEncouraged.答案与解析：D细节理解题。由第三段中的“The businessman was so pleased with the first result that he went on to tell another joke.”可知，讲完笑话，看到观众都大笑了，这个商人深受鼓舞又讲了一个笑话。30Why does the author mention his own experience?ATo show Chileans are impolite.BTo show humo

52、ur is related to culture.CTo show Chileans have no sense of humour.DTo show its hard to understand American humour.答案与解析：B推理判断题。第四段中提到了“Each culture has different understandings of humour”，紧接着，作者在第五段分享了自己在智利的经历，由此可知，他举自己的例子是为了说明幽默与文化息息相关。31Why does the hunter shoot his friend?AHis friend is in great

53、 pain.BThe operator asks him to do so.CHe is too worried to know what to do.DHe misunderstands the meaning of “make sure”答案与解析：D推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“The operator says, Calm down. I can help.

The high

56、s and the lows, the softness or the hardness, the musicality of the whole thing.”Sign language concert interpretation isnt easy. Matthew Maxey does it for a living. He created Deafinitely Dope, a hiphop interpretation service. He is also deaf. Maxey told TFK that one of the hardest parts of interpre

57、ting concerts is learning the songs in a short period of time.“Interpreting requires a lot of time and practice，” Maxey says. Interpreters have to know which songs an artist is going to perform, in what order, and how those songs might be shortened or changed. “You never realize how hard it is to me

58、morize lyrics until you learn a set list in two weeks，” he says.Sign language interpretation is about giving deaf people the same experience as those who can hear. “Everybody should have equal access (机会)，” Daulton says.Unfortunately, that doesnt always happen. Some concert venues (会场) place interpr

59、eters in an inconvenient location. To be close to the interpreter, deaf audience members might have to pay for costly seats. Sometimes, venues cant afford to provide interpretation at all.

BRecord.CTranslate. DUnderstand.答案与解析：C词义猜测题。由第三段中的“interpreting the lyrics of the song”和“describing the so

61、und of the music”可知，音乐会手语翻译员是通过手势把歌词向有听力障碍的听众翻译出来。33What does Jody Daulton mainly explain in Paragraph 3?AWhat a sign language concert interpreter does.BHow to become a sign language concert interpreter.CWhy sign language concert interpreters are popular.DWhom a sign language concert interpreter wor
