高考题型提能练十七 Unit 17 Laughter Ⅰ.阅读理解A“Have a nice day！〞 may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression. When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day〞 with a smile, I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me. I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.“Have_a_nice_day. Next！〞 This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door. The words come out in the same tone (腔调) with a fixed procedure. They are spoken at me, not to me. Obviously, the concern for my day and everyone else's is the management's attempt to increase business.The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other. Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting. As soon as you hear it, you know the meeting is at an end. Sometimes the expression saves us when we don't know what to say. “Oh, you just had a tooth out? I'm terribly sorry, but have a nice day.〞The expression can be pleasant. If a strang er says “Have a nice day〞 to you, you may find it heart­warming because someone you don't know has tried to be nice to you.Although the use of the expression is an insincere, meaningless social custom at times, there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting. The salesgirl, the waitress, the teacher, and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day. But in a strange and comfortable way, it's nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don't care all that much. While the expression may not often be sincere, it is always spoken. The point is that people say it all the time when they like.1.How does the author understand Maxie's words?A.Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.B.Maxie really wishes the author a good day.C.Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.D.Maxie really worries about the author's security.2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?A.The salesgirl is rude.B.The salesgirl is bored.C.The salesgirl cares about me.D.The salesgirl says the words as a routine.3.By saying “Have a nice day〞， a stranger may________.A.try to be polite to youB.express respect to youC.give his blessing to youD.share his pleasure with you4.What is the best title of the passage?A.Have a Nice Day — a Social CustomB.Have a Nice Day — a Pleasant GestureC.Have a Nice Day — a Heart­warming GreetingD.Have a Nice Day — a Polite Ending of a ConversationB(2016·日照市校际检测)“Friendly doctors are bad fo r their patients' health，〞researchers have warned as a new study revealed two thirds of young doctors struggle to be truthful with patients they like.Blurring (使……变得模糊不清) the lines between social and professionalrelationships can affect the level of care offered and prevent patients from being honest about important side effects.“Doctors should avoid adding patients as friends on Facebook, and they should not hug or allow patients to call them by their first names，〞 regulators have warned. “Those who br eak the boundaries will face some punishment.〞It comes as a survey of 338 oncologists (肿瘤学家) under the age of 40, finding 59 per cent said they found it difficult to tell the truth to those patients they like. Sixty per cent of respondents said if doctors felt too close to their patients, it could prevent them from making objective decisions about a person's care.Lesley Fallowfield of Brighton and Sussex Medical School said：“Oncology is a profession that can be enormously rewarding but is filled with many challenges. Young oncologists have to master the means of dealing with anxious patients who are facing a life­threatening disease, conveying the true prognosis (预断), discussing the complexity of modern treatments, and explaining the unavailability of some drugs, the side effects of treatments, and likely treatment aims.〞But she also said, “Those doctors who have entered the profession in the age of ‘the Internet world’ are more likely to fall victim to blurring the professional boundaries with patients.〞She said，“The difficulty, if you hug and kiss patients, if you allow them to call you by your first name, is that quickly the relationship can become confusing as a social one rather than a professional one. Doctors become confused, ‘I really like these people, how can I bear to tell them that they're going to die？’ They find it more difficult to be objective.〞5.Why are friendly doctors bad for their patients' health?A.Because they don't like to cheat patients.B.Because they are not good at treating patients.C.Because they find it not easy to be objective to the patients.D.Because they seldom blur the relationship with patients.6.What should doctors do according to the regulators?A.Add patients as friends on Facebook.B.Have a close connection with patients in life.C.Always be cold to patients.D.Keep patients at a proper distance.7.Young oncologists will face the following challenges EXCEPT ________.A.dealing with a lot of life­threatening diseasesB.discussing difficulties of treatments with patientsC.explaining the unavailability of some medicinesrming patients of the possible results of the treatments。

Unit 17 LaughterⅠ.阅读理解ANowadays, it seems that everybody wants to be a leader. Countless books about how to manage a company or influence others fill bookstores. But one needn't be a CEO or Politician to be a leader. Former U. S. President John Adams s aid, “If your action inspires others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.”The key to becoming such a leader lies in character. People follow only those whom they respect, trust and admire. What attractive traits does such a leader have? Below are five of the most important.Leaders have courageThe New York firefighters who ran into the burning World Trade Tower to rescue others are modernday models of courage. Yet even more than physical courage, the everyday demands of modern life require moral courage. Insisting on doing the right thing despite pressure to act otherwise takes such courage.Leaders must face fear and doubt in many of the decisions they make. Having these feelings doesn't mean one isn't courageous. After all, courage is not the absence of fear. Rather, it's doing the right thing despite one's fears.Leaders are humbleBeing humble simply means having an accurate view of one's own limitations. Everybody has limitations. Leaders deal with theirs by seeking help from others.When leaders seek help, they recognize the skills that order other people bring to the table. And when they are successful, leaders generously praise all who contributed to the success. Humble leaders don't promote themselves; they promote others.Learning is a lifelong goal, no matter one's position. Humble leaders are never too proud to learn from all sources of knowledge—even those under them.Leaders serve othersJust Christ said，“If anyone wants to be first, he must be the very last, a nd the servant of all.” Leaders serve others and put the needs of others beforethemselves. They make the good of everyone on the team a personal priority.Leaders who serve others help the whole team accomplish more. Leaders do things to make sure everybody has the resources needed. They go the extra mile to help out during a busy rush. When leaders serve, followers are also encouraged to serve each other.Leaders have passionMoney or success can motivate someone to show up for an activity. But what motivates one to really put his heart into something? The answer is passion—the feeling that the activity is significant.Outstanding leaders inspire others because they are motivated by passion for what they do. Leaders show the significance of routine work to others by emphasizing the big picture. They demonstrate how an activity not only benefits the individual, but also one's family, community and entire society. Their passion ignites the passion of others.Leaders have integrityOne's integrity can be measured by what one does when nobody is looking. Leaders practice what they preach all the time, not just in the presence of others. Leaders also set the example for integrity. If a leader values being punctual, he arrives early.Leadership is more about who you are than what you know or can do. By following these principles, you can become a better person. And that in turn will make you a better leader.文章大意：本文是一篇说明文。

Unit 17 Laughter(60分钟81分)Part A一、阅读理解(共8小题;每小题2分,满分16分)AThere are an extremely large number of ants worldwide.Each individual(个体的)ant hardly weighs anything,but put together they weigh roughly the same as all of mankind.They also live nearly everywhere,except on frozen mountain tops and around the poles.For animals their size,ants have been astonishingly successful,largely due to their wonderful social behavior.In colonies(群体)that range in size from a few hundred to tens of millions,they organize their lives with a clear division of labor.Even more amazing is how they achieve this level of organization.Where we use sound and sight to communicate,ants depend primarily on pheromones(外激素),chemicals sent out by individuals and smelled or tasted by fellow members of their colony.When an ant finds food,it produces a pheromone that will lead others straight to where the food is.When an individual ant comes under attack or is dying,it sends out an alarm pheromone to warn the colony to prepare for a conflict as a defense unit.In fact,when it comes to the art of war,ants have no equal.They are completely fearless and will readily take on a creature much larger than themselves,attacking in large groups and overcoming their target.Such is their devotion to the common good of the colony that not only soldier ants but also worker ants will sacrifice their lives to help defeat an enemy.Behaving in this selfless and devoted manner,these little creatures have survived on Earth for more than 140 million years,far longer than dinosaurs.Because they think as one,they have a collective(集体的)intelligence greater than you would expect from its individual parts.(2015·安徽高考) 1.We can learn from the passage that ants are .A.not willing to share foodB.not found around the polesC.more successful than all other animalsD.too many to achieve any level of organization2.Ants can use pheromones for .A.escapemunicationC.warning enemiesD.arranging labor3.What does the underlined expression “take on” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Accept.B.Employ.C.Play with.D.Fight against.4.Which of the following contributes most to the survival of ants?A.Their behavior.B.Their size.C.Their number.D.Their weight.【文章大意】本文是说明文。

Unit 17 Laughter课时练1 2篇阅读＋1篇完形＋1篇应用文写作Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2020·合肥第二次质检)The idea that you can use humor,laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simpleto be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense ofhumor, laughter and play plays an important part in keeping youhealthy.Treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tiedto laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it’s for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling.Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, more interesting and happier.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了幽默、大笑和玩耍给人们的健康带来的好处。
