Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to survey laughter and the positive effects it has on the human body. They have found evidence 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 rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscle. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.‎ Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which tolerates the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which decrease both stress and pain.‎ There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body's immune (免疫)system , that is, the system which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group-in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the student in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells, that is, the cell which fight infection.‎ As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病学家) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter. ‎ ‎13. We can learn from the first paragraph that laughter _____.‎ A. is beneficial to one's health B. is related to some illness ‎ C. has been surveyed long since D. has positive effects on one’s appearance ‎14. Which of the following statements is NOT true of laughter, according to the passage?‎ A. It reduces the pain B. It exercises the body C.It improves the body's immune system D. It can cure cancer ‎15. What is the text mainly about?‎ ‎ A. Doctors have done many experiments.‎ ‎ B. Laughter can cure（治愈） many kinds of illnesses.‎ C. Laughter benefits our health.‎ D.Clinics to improve patients’ condition are popular in America.‎ 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Does failure really exist?‎ If you believe you have failed, then you have. If you believe you don’t have the ability to succeed, then you don’t. __16__The moment you decide to give up or to stop working toward your goals, failure is born.‎ ‎●__17__‎ Most people give themselves up without even realizing it. They are willing to work hard on reaching their goals, but only until the going gets too rough or their energy dies down. Don’t do that! __18__ Never quit, never admit failure, and never lose heart.‎ ‎●Don’t believe in a clear finish line for goals.‎ It’s a good idea to set a general timeline, but remember that something will be beyond your control. __19__ If you lock yourself into a given timeline, you might make yourself feel like a failure! Instead, get a general idea of when you’d like your goal to be completed. Then take it one day at a time and focus on making progress instead of reaching the finish line in as little time as possible.‎ ‎●Be sure that you don’t see difficulties as failures.‎ Difficulties mean only one thing: it’s not time for your goal to be completed yet. That’s it! It doesn’t mean you failed; it doesn’t mean you are weak; it doesn’t mean you’ll never achieve your goals. __20__ You’ve got to keep moving forward and find a way over, around, or through the difficulties.‎ A.Never give up yourself.‎ B.Failure only exists in your own mind! ‎ C.That’s exactly how failure makes us feel.‎ D.It simply means you have not done enough yet.‎ E.You can never say exactly when your goal will be reached.‎ F.Make up your mind to make your goal happen, no matter what!‎ G.Work hard towards your goal, and you will be likely to get good grades.‎ 第二部分 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）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ Hannah Taylor is a schoolgirl from Manitoba, Canada.
