89、 stronger. Here is what a comedian says about coping with stress. You can try to find a different perspective. 37 Once a friend of mine fell asleep in the middle of a class. His teacher decided to make fun of him by inviting students to applaud, wondering whether my friend would applaud along when h

90、e woke up. He did and the whole class burst outlaughing. After learning everything, he was both embarrassed and ashamed of course but after a while, my friend laughed. “If this had happened to someone else, it would have been amusing. So its no less funny, just because it happened to me. “ 38 Theres

91、 no doubt that we all experience great stress now and then. Weve all been personally affected, in some way.

95、后文提到“People who can laugh at their own misfortunes bounce back faster and stronger.”（能对自己的不幸一笑置之的人能更快更坚强地振作起来。）由此判断，笑容还能让人更快地恢复过来。D项“But laughter does more than cheer you up.”（但是笑不仅仅是让你开心。）旨在说明笑不只是让人心情好起来，它还有后文提到的“Here is what a comedian says about coping with stress.”（以下是一位喜剧演员对应对压力的看法。）减少压力的作用。D项符

96、合文意，故选D。37第二段第一句提到“You can try to find a different perspective. ”（你可以尝试换个角度）。下文作者讲了朋友的一个故事，旨在证明只要找到了好笑的点，就可以把一件尴尬的事情变成一件好笑的事情。而读者可以从这个故事里获得灵感，受到鼓舞。从上下文可以得知，这个角度实际上指的是看到事情的有趣的地方，找到好笑的点。G项“If you have trouble seeing the funny side, you may find the following inspiring.”（如果你很难看到有趣的一面，你可能会发现下面的故事很鼓舞人心。）

97、该项与后文的故事为解释例证关系。G项符合文意，故选G。38空处位于段首，由此判断该句应为该段的主题句，后文提到“You might not have felt like laughing at the time But now, looking back, you could consider all of the strange aspects of the experience and all of the things you did to keep active or simply stay sane (神志正常的) .”（当时你可能不想笑，但现在，回头看，你可以考虑所有奇怪的方面的经

98、验和所有的事情，你做了保持活跃或只是保持理智。）每个人都会经历压力并受到影响，当时也许笑不出来，但是回头看看，想起做过的奇怪的事情，也许就会笑了。C项“You can also look again and laugh.”（你可以回过头看看，然后大笑一场） 该项符合文意，故选C。39前文提到“When you share stories with your friends, you can choose to share stories of trauma (创伤) and pain, or you can choose to lift their spirits with stories o

99、f hope and growth.”（当你和朋友分享故事时，你可以选择分享创伤和痛苦的故事，也可以选择用希望和成长的故事来鼓舞他们的精神。）后文提到“Take the exact same story and change the focus from “feel sorry for me” to “laugh with me”. ”（以同样的故事为例，把重点从“为我感到难过”转变为“和我一起笑”。）由此判断，该段说明可以把难过的事情转换成另外一个方面去吸收。结合文章标题“What a comedian can teach you about managing stress”（喜剧演员可以教

100、你如何管理压力）可知，喜剧演员会让观众一起笑起来。B项“Why not do what comedians do?”（为什么不学学喜剧演员呢?）B项符合文意，故选B。40前文提到“Keep in mind that were all in this together, that we all share the same ridiculous experiences, and that we can laugh together at whatever life throws at us. ”（请记住，我们都在一起，我们都有同样荒谬的经历，我们可以一起嘲笑生活给我们的任何东西。），此空前面建议

101、人们要认识到每个人都会经历不好的事情，无论经历什么，我们都可以发笑。所以此空应该是这么做的好处。E项“Then you are able to make a simple choice.”（然后你就可以做一个简单的选择。）E项符合文意，故选E。9.（四川省成都市第七中学2023年高三模拟检测）For most people, nothing is better than having an iced beer after you are back home in hot summer. 41 Why?

All

142、people have been shy at one time or another. Even the most confident people experienced being shy. (害羞是正常的，它不被认为是一种精神问题。所有的人都曾有过害羞的时候。即使是最自信的人也会感到害羞) ”讲到害羞是正常现象，所有人，包括最自信的人，都曾害羞过，D项“So if youre feeling shy, dont worry because you are not alone.(所以，如果你感到害羞，不要担心，因为你不是一个人)”是本段的结论，正因为人人都会害羞，所以不用担心，与上文构成

143、因果关系。故选D项。57上文“It may be because of the environment you were used to or the way you were brought up. Certain events or incidents in the past may also lead to the reason why you are shy now.(这可能是因为你所习惯的环境或者你被抚养长大的方式。过去的某些事情或事件也可能是导致你现在害羞的原因) ”讲感到害羞可能与成长环境和特定事件等外部因素有关，而下文“Most shy people have shy pare

145、fe as well as work, family and other aspects of their life.(这显然影响了他们的社会生活以及工作、家庭和生活的其他方面)”中指示代词this可知，上文中应出现其指代内容，而且该内容会影响到人们的社会生活以及工作、家庭和生活的其他方面，G 项“They avoid crowds by nature and stay away from groups and social interactions.(他们天生避开人群，远离群体和社会交往)”中所描述害羞的人会“避开人群，远离群体和社会交往”这一行为，会对人们的方方面面造成极大的影响，正是下文

146、代词this指代的 对象，与下文构成逻辑上的顺承关系。故选G项。59根据段首中心句“While shyness has negative aspects, it has positive sides.(虽然害羞有消极的方面，但它也有积极的方面)”可知，本段主要介绍“害羞”的积极意义，E项“They are not hot-headed and think twice before making any decisions.(他们不会头脑发热，在做任何决定之前都会再三考虑)”讲害羞的人做事情会深思熟虑，这是对中心句中“positive sides”的举例说明，同时，与其上文和下文构成并列关系，都

This contributes to their constant self-improvement, developing self-esteem and trying to be exposed to new environments.(一些人出生时父母就很害羞，但他们成功地战胜了害羞。这有助于他们不断自我完善，发展自尊，尝试接触新环境) ”可知，本段主要讲了害羞是可以战胜的，F项“A

148、lthough shyness is something from birth, it can be improved over time.(虽然害羞是与生俱来的，但它可以随着时间的推移而改善)”讲害羞可以改善，作为段首中心句，是对全段内容的准确概括，且句中“it can be improved ”与下文“their constant self-improvement, developing self-esteem”相照应。故选F项。13.（2024届江苏省徐州市沛县高三模拟 ）For the holiday gathering, you may be wondering how youre
