　　(2024浙江嘉興能力測(cè)試)

　　What is funny?The short answer is:Who knows?The joke that causes a burst of laughter from one listener might be met with a puzzled look from another.

　　In general,you should avoid jokes at any business or social gathering where there are more than two people in your conversational group.If there are only two people—and they consist of you and your best friend—go ahead and tell it.

　　Admittedly,a few people possess a perfect sense of timing,appropriateness,and joke delivery.You are probably not one of them.You might be quite funny and have many great jokes.But there’s a place for jokes — over dinner with family,hiking with friends,but business or social affairs with colleagues and acquaintances (熟人) are not it.It takes a whole other level of joke-telling ability to put a joke into the more formal conversations.

　　The best jokes come into the conversation so that by the time listeners realise a joke is in progress,the punchline that produces humour is being delivered — to their surprise and delight.

　　Jokes don’t translate well when you’re in a group with mixed backgrounds:those whose first language is not English,those who might not understand a special term or an “in” expression,young people who wouldn’t catch a reference to some bit of culture familiar to older people — and vice versa (反之亦然).

　　Never joke about another person in the group — about their name,habits,hometown,profession,appearance,or past.It’s not a question of whether the joke is cheery or appropriate.No one enjoys being singled out this way.When you are the subject of the joke,the laughter doesn’t feel good no matter how hard you try to tell yourself they’re not laughing at you.Because that’s what it feels like.

　　What do you say if you realise your joke upset someone?Apologise as briefly and as sincerely as you can,and hope that someone changes the subject.Try saying:“I’m sorry.I should have known better” or “I’m sorry.I wasn’t thinking.”

　　What do you do if people don’t get your joke or don’t appear to find it as funny as you do?First,do not retell it,only louder this time,hoping the point of the joke will be seen.Second,don’t try to push people to get it.People do not like people whose jokes they don’t understand.They feel stupid and need to blame someone.If you want to leave with the goodwill of your listeners,say something to make them feel less foolish.You could say:“I don’t know why I tell jokes when I’m so poor at it.”

　　The world needs laughter,and good humour is a success wherever it goes,so this caveat (告誡) about joke-telling is not meant to dampen high spirits or to advocate dull conversation.If you’re a gifted story-teller and you know people love your jokes,go for it.We need your kind.The rest of us will save our jokes for family and close friends.

　　1.According to the passage,it might be appropriate for you to tell a joke at a business or social gathering if 　.?

　　A.the joke is well chosen

　　B.you have complete confidence in your listeners’ sense of humour

　　C.only you and your best friend are involved in the conversation

　　B.They will be upset no matter what kind of joke it is.

　　C.They will enjoy the joke when realising that people are not laughing at them.

　　D.They will panic because it makes them the center of attention.

　　3.When people do not understand a joke they hear,they tend to 　.?

　　A.believe it’s the joke-teller’s fault

　　B.get someone to retell the joke

　　C.ask for explanation

　　D.say something foolish

　　4.Which of the following best describes the writer’s opinion on joke-telling?

　　A.Nobody knows what makes a joke funny.

　　B.We should not tell jokes unless we are asked to do so.

　　考點(diǎn)規(guī)范練19

　　.1.C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段說(shuō)明可知,在洽談生意及社交聚會(huì)場(chǎng)合,只有你和你最好的朋友時(shí)才可以開(kāi)玩笑。故選C項(xiàng)。

　　2.B　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段第一、二句話可知,被別人開(kāi)玩笑,無(wú)論這個(gè)是否合適都會(huì)讓人感到生氣。

　　3.A　推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中People do not like people whose jokes they don’t understand.They feel stupid and need to blame someone.一部分內(nèi)容可知,如果一個(gè)人沒(méi)聽(tīng)懂一則笑話,他需要責(zé)備其他人,故他會(huì)認(rèn)為是說(shuō)笑話的人的過(guò)錯(cuò),沒(méi)讓他聽(tīng)懂。

　　4.C　觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。根據(jù)文章最后一段內(nèi)容可知,作者認(rèn)為講笑話是一件較為復(fù)雜的事。

　　.1.C　由前面sighed一詞及后面的memories一詞的暗示可知,新年已過(guò)了一周的時(shí)間,而圣誕樹(shù)還在房間的角落里。

　　2.B　句意為“……在繽紛的彩燈中驕傲地展示著它珍藏其中的種種回憶”。display“展示”,此處用過(guò)去分詞做定語(yǔ)修飾memories。

　　3.C　由前面說(shuō)明可知,作者由于對(duì)新年的留戀,對(duì)于將圣誕樹(shù)收起來(lái)已“推遲”(postpone)很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間。

　　4.D　由第五段第一句“A few hours after I started,the 　11　 boxes were back in the garage”可知答案。

　　5.A　由前面說(shuō)明可知,作者從車庫(kù)拖來(lái)了那些箱子,首先“取下來(lái)”(come down)的是花環(huán)。

　　6.B　這些物品堆成了堆,故用make表示“組成”。

　　7.A　閱讀短文不難看出作者對(duì)這些裝飾物的珍視,故選A項(xiàng)表示其動(dòng)作很“謹(jǐn)慎小心”(cautiously)。

　　8.D　根據(jù)下文說(shuō)明可知,作者拿出這些裝飾物,時(shí)不時(shí)地停下來(lái)“欣賞”(admire)。

　　9.A　由but的轉(zhuǎn)折,及前面“Thanks for being my friend for almost fifty years.”可知,此處應(yīng)填A(yù)項(xiàng)表示“破舊的”。

　　10.B　由后面說(shuō)明“但是每年它們都始終給我增加記憶”可知,它們?cè)谠O(shè)計(jì)上“遠(yuǎn)不是”(far from)那么完美。

　　11.C　根據(jù)第二段中“An hour later,our bed was covered with Christmas memories.”一句可知,這些boxes里面裝滿了裝飾物。

　　12.B　裝飾物都重新放回到箱子里并放在了車庫(kù),房間自然又空著了。

　　13.C　后面說(shuō)明把它拆了,所以前面說(shuō)明的是對(duì)圣誕樹(shù)進(jìn)行“裝飾”(decorate)。下一段中“they take a long time to decorate with memories”一句也是暗示。

　　14.B　此處進(jìn)行類比(把好的婚姻或者好的友誼和圣誕樹(shù)對(duì)比),故用similar to表示“和……相似”。

　　15.A　比較上一段最后一句“It took me two days of work to 　13　 my tree,but only a few hours to take it apart.”可知,裝飾要花很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,而毀掉則很快。

　　16.D　這一切只“需要”(take)一個(gè)不友好的詞或者一個(gè)未加思考的行動(dòng)。

　　17.B　作者感嘆每年收起圣誕樹(shù),卻沒(méi)有把婚姻或者友誼珍藏,它們只是在自己的生活的角落里發(fā)著光,和自己的生命一樣長(zhǎng)久。

　　18.B　根據(jù)后面說(shuō)明可知,手握著圣誕老人,這勾起了作者的回憶。

　　19.C　根據(jù)該段的說(shuō)明可知,作者呼吁要“珍惜”(cherish)友誼和婚姻。

　　20.C　該句句意:如果有(友誼和婚姻)的話,它們一旦崩潰了,就不會(huì)像圣誕樹(shù)那么容易放回去了。if at all表示“如果有的話”。

　　.1.to　此處是固定短語(yǔ)due to,意為“由于”。

　　2.woke　分析上下文可知,此處指發(fā)生在過(guò)去的事情,用一般過(guò)去時(shí)。

　　3.named　此處是過(guò)去分詞短語(yǔ)做定語(yǔ),指名叫Glen的醫(yī)生。

　　4.to exercise　此處是不定式短語(yǔ)表示目的。

　　5.listening　此處是動(dòng)詞-ing形式做賓補(bǔ),邏輯上是主謂關(guān)系,用動(dòng)詞-ing形式。

　　6.unpleasant　此處是形容詞做系動(dòng)詞的表語(yǔ),指感覺(jué)起來(lái)不舒服。

　　7.or　分析上下文可知,指否定句中的并列關(guān)系,用or。

　　8.myself　這里是自己的思想,用反身代詞myself。

　　9.who/that　此處用以引導(dǎo)一個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句,指人,故用who/that。

　　10.less　此處是副詞比較級(jí)修飾后面的形容詞,用less跟形容詞原級(jí)。
