However, researchers have discovered that not all humour is equal. The quickest path to success is to use a very specific form of wit: Self-deprecation. “Many studies show that a sense of humour is attractive to women, especially to their girlfriends, but we’ve found that self-deprecating humour is the most attractive of all. ” said anthropologist Gil Greengross. One possible explanation is that taking the mickey out of oneself is a high-risk strategy. “It is a risky form of humour because it can draw attention to one’s real faults, thereby diminishing(縮小)the self-deprecator’s status in the eyes of others. But based on the idea that self-deprecating humour can be an especially reliable indicator not only of general intelligence and creativity, but also of moral virtues such as humility. ” Anthropologist Kate Fox, author of Watching the English, believes self-deprecation is uniquely vital for those with an English cultural background: “For the English, the rules of humour are the cultural equivalent of natural laws—we obey them automatically, rather in the way that we obey the law of gravity. ” “Pomposity(夸耀)and self-importance are outlawed. Serious matters can be spoken of seriously, but one must never take oneself too seriously. ” she added. “As long as everyone understands the rules, they are duly impressed both by one’s achievements and by one’s reluctance(不愿)to talk about them publicly. ” However, Greengross warns of another danger in the use of self-deprecation. “If you are a low-status individual, using self-deprecating humour can be disastrous to you. ” he said. “Think about the secondary-school child whom nobody liked, who made fun of his shorting in sports. His kids laughed at him and he was considered more pathetic(悲慘的)than he was previously. This is high-risk attraction. It is not for everyone. ” (330W) 1. What is Kate Fox? A. A film-maker. B. An official at school. C. A lawyer. D. An expert in studying anthropology. 2. From the passage, we know that Gil Greengross　　　. A. is attractive to women all the way, especially to his girlfriend B. believes that he himself is really the author of Watching the English C. thinks that a low-status individual can be disastrous to him/her while using self-deprecation D. loves the secondary-school child whom nobody liked because of his shorting in sports 3. The underlined phrase “taking the mickey out of oneself” (in Paragraph 3)may be replaced by　　　. A. making someone laugh B. self-deprecation C. obeying the law of gravity D. pomposity and self-importance 4. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. The quickest path to success is to make someone laugh. B. Self-deprecation perhaps lowers its status in the eyes of others. C. The English obey natural laws without obeying the law of gravity. D. Nobody likes making fun of one child’s shorting in sports. Ⅲ. 閱讀第二節(jié) (xx長春模擬) 　　根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容, 從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。 Have you heard about leap year? Leap year is a year that has 366 days instead of the usual 365. It normally occurs every four years, always on an even-numbered year. The extra day is added to our shortest month. That is the second month of the year, which in non-leap years has 28 days, two fewer than any other month. 　1　 We also call leap year the bissextile year. 　2　In our calendar system there is a need for a leap year because the solar year(the time it takes the earth to go around the sun once)is actually slightly more than 365 days long. That extra day—Feb. 29 every four years—helps correct the difference between our calendar and the solar calendar. It is said that leap year was first made part of the calendar by the ancient Roman leader Julius Caesar. His astronomers had calculated the length of the solar year to be 365 days and six hours. So Caesar declared that an extra day be added to the calendar. 　3　However, Caesar’s adjustment was not pletely accurate because his astronomers’ year exceeded the true solar year by eleven minutes and fourteen seconds. By 1582, a difference of ten days had developed between the calendar year and the true solar year. To correct this error, Pope Gregory ruled that every fourth year would continue to be a leap year except for century years that could not be divided evenly by 400. By this system, century years such as 1700, 1800, and 1900 were not leap years, but the year xx was a leap year. 　4　 People born on Feb. 29 celebrate their growing up a little differently from the rest of us. 　5　But if they go strictly by the calendar, they have only one-fourth as many birthday celebrations as most people. A. They acknowledge that they get older each year. B. When you see Feb. 29 on a calendar, you know that year is a leap year. C. This is its formal, or scientific title. D. This may seem plicated, but it works. E. In a leap year, the extra day is added to the second month, giving it 29 instead of the usual 28 days. F. The leap year was introduced in the Julian calendar in 46 BC. G. This is done every four years. 【語篇隨練】 1. 根據(jù)閱讀理解翻譯漢語 Many studies show that a sense of humour is attractive to women, especially to their girlfriends, but we’ve found that self-deprecating humour is the most attractive of all. 【譯】_______________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2. 用30個詞左右概括閱讀理解文章大意 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 答案解析 Ⅰ. 1. 【解析】選B?？疾殛P(guān)系副詞的用法。先行詞occasions, 在從句中作時間狀語, 所以用when, 相當于on which。句意: 我欽佩我的英語老師。在我的記憶中她幾乎沒有因為生病而不給我們上課的時候。 【變式備選】 In a sports team each player has a clear role, and there are few　　　when members are uncertain of their roles.
