While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be. ‎ I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasn’t only funny; it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.‎ The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you weren’t jealous of him.‎ In short, we don’t laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a person’s emotions, he will certainly like it a lot.‎ 17. What did the author find out after studying psychology?‎ A. Only good jokes make people laugh. B. Laughter can make people healthy. C. Funny things can make people laugh. D. Many factors lead to people laughing.‎ 18. Why did the audience laugh loud at the pedestrians?‎ A. They played a trick on the pedestrians. B. The pedestrians behaved in a funny way. C. Their emotion was approved of by the show. D. They could feel the pedestrians’ happiness.‎ 19. What does the underlined word “belittling” probably mean?‎ A. Praise. B. Blame. C. Make up to. D. Look down on.‎ B Money with no strings attached. It’s not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read, "Give What You Can, Take What You Need."‎ People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and social-economic (社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took, ”said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox, which created the project. "We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars." Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip(片段)shows one man who had found a $ 20 bill pinning it to the board.‎ ‎“What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,” Bridges said. “There’s a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those that gave the most." Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.‎ While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.‎ ‎“After all, everyone has bad days and good days," he said. “Some days you need a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”‎ ‎24. What does the expression "money with no strings attached" in paragraph 1 mean?‎ A. Money spent without hesitation. B. Money not legally made.‎ C. Money offered without conditions. D. Money not tied together.‎ ‎25. What did Bridges want to show by mentioning the bride?‎ A. Women tended to be more sociable. B. The activity attracted various people.‎ C. Economic problems were getting worse. D. Young couples needed financial assistance.‎ ‎26. Why did Bridges carry out the project?‎ A. To do a test on people’s morals. B. To raise money for his company.‎ C. To earn himself a good reputation. D. To promote kindness and sympathy.‎ C After years of heated debate，gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National ‎ Park．Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park．By last year，the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than 170 wolves．     Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States，but they were gradually displaced by human development．By the 1920s，wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area．They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada，where there were fewer humans around．     The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results．Deer and elk populations-major food sources （来源） for the wolf-grew rapidly．These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation （植被），which reduced plant diversity in the park．In the absence of wolves，coyote populations also grew quickly．The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park's red foxes，and completely drove away the park's beavers．     As early as 1966，biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park．They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems．Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets．     The government spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolves．The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone．Today，the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone．Elk，deer，and coyote populations are down，while beavers and red foxes have made a comeback．The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well．‎ ‎27.What is the text mainly about？‎ A. Wildlife research in the United States． B. Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area． C. The conflict between farmers and gray wolves． D. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park．‎ ‎28.What does the underlined word" displaced" in paragraph 2 mean？______‎ A. Tested． B. Separated． C. Forced out． D. Tracked down．‎ ‎29.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about？______‎ A. Damage to local ecology．B. A decline in the park's income． C. Preservation of vegetation．D. An increase in the variety of animals．‎ ‎30.What is the author's attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project？______‎ A. Doubtful． B. Positive．C. Disapproving．D. Uncaring．‎ ‎ ‎ 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ The Science of Risk-Seeking Sometimes We decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 31 Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work.‎ The reason why any of us take any risks at all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 32 As the quality of Risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.‎ So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 33 ‎ No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 34 To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.‎ ‎ 35 For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active. ‎ ‎ As experts continue to study the science of risk-seeking, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.‎ A．It all depends on your character.‎ B．Those are the risks you should jump to take.‎ C．Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.‎ D．Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.‎ E．This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.‎ F．However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.‎ G．New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.‎ 第三部分　语言运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空(共20小题; 每小题1. 5分, 满分30分)　‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A.B.C.D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。　‎ About five years ago，I found myself working in a terrible middle school． The hours were long and the work was boring． 36__, the pay was low．Every day the job seemed a physical 37 for me.

Their mother was very sick and their father was struggling to find a job, and they had only a little money with which to buy food. As they had not paid the rent for several months, the landlord was breathing down their necks.‎ One day, Justin took Lily’ s shoes to a shoe repairman to be fixed, but he lost them on the way home. It wasn’t’ t until he got home that he realized he had lost the shoes. He was afraid that his parents would be angry and disappointed, so he begged his sister to keep it secret. Lily agreed and the two decided to share Justin’ s running shoes. Lily’ s school hours were in the morning, so she would wear them first. After school, she would rush back and give them to Justin. He could then run to his school, which began in the afternoon. Although he ran as fast as he could, Justin often arrived late and was warned by the school.‎ A long distance race was going to be held for the boys in the city. When Justin learned that the third prize was a new pair of shoes, he decided to take part. He ran home excitedly and promised his sister that he would win her the new shoes.‎ The day of race arrived. Justin had a strong start, but halfway through the race he began to get tired and his legs began to ache. Getting more and more exhausted he thought only of Lily and his promise to her. Dreaming of the new shoes he would win for his sister gave him strength, and he stayed right behind the two fastest runners, determined to finish third. Suddenly, as the finish line drew near, another runner collided(碰撞)with Justin from behind and Justin crashed to the ground.‎ 注意：‎ 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右；‎ 2. 应使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ 3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ 4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。‎ Paragraph 1:‎ Justin looked up and he saw the other boys rushing ahead. _____________________________‎ ‎________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2:‎ Filled with pleasure, Justin walked home in no time. _________________________________‎ ‎2019-2020学年第一学期高三英语期中考试答案 第一部分：听力（共两节； 每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎1--5 BBABC 6--10 ACCBB 11--15 CABCC 16--20 BCCBB 第二部分：阅读理解 （共两节, 满分35分）‎ 第一节 (共10小题；每小题2.5分, 满分25分)‎ ‎21-23 DCD 24-26 CBD 27-30 DCAB 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分)‎ ‎31-35FCAEG 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎36-40 DDCDD   41-45 ACAAB    46-50ACCAC    51-55 CBCBC 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）‎ ‎56. wisdom 57. enjoyable 58 has 59. be drunk 60. so ‎ ‎61. with 62. as 63. located 64. has expanded 65. occurrence 第四部分 写 作（共两节；满分40分）‎ 第一节 书面表达 （15分）One possible version：‎ Dear Jack， I'm more than pleased to know that you are eager to learn Chinese． Confucius Institute may be a good choice， which is intended for the Chinese learners who are not native．‎ Confucius Institute provides various interesting subjects． You will lean Chinese history and traditional culture as well as Chinese writing． Also， you have more chances to talk with classmates in Chinese． Besides， teachers will introduce some Chinese traditional festivals， such as the Spring Festival， Dragon Boat Day and Mid-Autumn Day． Some relevant activities will be held during different festivals， such as making dumplings or eating zongzi， where you can not only enjoy delicious meals but also have a good knowledge of Chinese life．‎ I hope you will find my recommendation helpful and attractive． Yours， Li Hua 第二节 读后续写 （25分）‎ Paragraph ‎ 1:      Justin looked up and he saw the other boys rushing ahead.
