第三部分  阅读理解(共10小题;每小题3分,满分30分)

A

Dr Wiseman started “The laugh lab” project in September 2010. It is the largest study of humor. Many people are invited to log on the laugh lab website, give a few personal details, tell their favorite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.

The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally discover the worlds funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny. And they want to find out the differences between men and womens sense of humor. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh.

This is a subject that has long interested psychologists and philosophers. Most of the time, people are not completely honest. We do things that society expects us to do and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. When we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves.

By May 2011 over 10, 000 jokes had been submitted(提交). This gave the scientists enough evidence(证据)to make early conclusions. It seems that men and women do have different senses of humor.

“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which men and women use humor,” said Dr Wiseman. “Men use humor to appear superior(优越)to others, while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play.”

Researchers also found that there was really such a thing as a national sense of humor. The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humor”. And the French like their jokes short and sharp:

“Youre a high-priced lawyer. Will you answer two questions for $ 500?”

“Yes. Whats the second question?”

The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humor. But the survey found that Germans were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other country. Perhaps that proves the point: Is this joke funny? I dont know, but lets say yes, just to be safe.

Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing. Computers already seem like they can do everything. At least they should leave the funny thing to us.

41. Whats the purpose of “The laugh lab” project?

A. To know what makes people laugh.

B. To find the funniest joke in European countries.

C. To know what funny people are from different nations and cultures.

D. To find out the differences between men and womens sense of humor.

42. The writer gave the examples of the British, the French and the Germans to show that ___ .

A. the Germans have no sense of humor

B. the British people have a sense of “toilet humor”

C. the French people have a better sense of humor

D. people from different nations have different senses of humor

43. What is the main idea of the 4th and 5th paragraphs?

A. Men and women have similar senses of humor.

B. Men and women have different senses of humor.

C. Scientists have collected enough evidence to make conclusions.

D. About 10,000 jokes have been submitted from September 2010 to May 2011.

44. What can we infer from the passage?

A. Most of the people all over the world are completely honest.

B. Psychologists and philosophers take interest in the project.

C. People tell the truth about themselves only when they laugh.

D. Ordinary people are not interested in the project at all.

B

“I was surprised the train was still there, to tell you the truth,” said Christian Riddle, 28, slightly out of breath and looking more than a little easy, as he leaned into a leather seat. Missing the train would have meant a half-hour wait for Mr Riddle, who considered the secret minute policy “pretty cool.” For a tourist rushing to catch a train, a minute can mean the difference between dinner with the family and food in the microwave.

What most passengers do not realize is that their minute is already there. Every train that starts from New York City — about 900 a day — leaves a minute later than planned. If the timetable says 8:14, the train will actually leave at 8:15. The 12:48 is really the 12:49. In other words, if you think you have only a minute to get that train — well, relax. You have two.

The minute, published only in private timetables for employees, is meant as a period for people who need the extra time to get onto the train. “If everyone knows they get an extra minute, theyre going to waste time,” explained Anders, a spokeswoman for the Railroad. Told of this article, Ms Anders laughed. “Dont blow our cover!” she said.

The railroad industry exactly helped invent the idea of standard time, and time zones(时区)were established in the United States in the 1880s, 35 years before they were written into the law. Although most tourists knew their train would start by the accurate(准确的)minute, the trains quickly made up the minute: at all other stops.

The kind minute does not exist at railroads in Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, or San Francisco. But in New York, railroad fans said, the secret minute dates back ten years.

45. Whats the writers idea about “the secret minute”?

A. He is strongly against it.

B. He is for it.

C. He thinks it should be called off for tourists.

D. He thinks it should be kept only in New York.

46. What do we know from the text?

A. Trains from New York will leave later than the timetable.

B. The secret minute had been written into American law.

C. The secret minute still exists at the railroads in Chicago.

D. All American railroad timetables include the secret minute.

47. What is the best title for the text?

A. Riddles train experience

B. The advantage of the secret minute

C. The history of the secret minute

D. The secret New York minute

C

For those who study the development of intelligence in the animal world, self-awareness is an important measurement. An animal that is aware(意识)of itself has a high level of intelligence.

Awareness can be tested by studying whether the animal recognizes itself in the mirror, that is,its own reflected image(影像). Many animals fail this exercise, paying very little attention to the reflected image. Only humans, and some intelligent animals like apes and dolphins, have shown to recognize that the image in the mirror is of themselves.

Now another animal has joined the club. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers report that an Asian elephant has passed the mirror self-reflection test.

“We thought that elephants were the next important animal,” said Diana Reiss of the Wildlife Conservation Society. With their large brains, Reiss said, elephants “seemed like cousins to apes and dolphins”.

The researchers tested Happy, Maxine and Patty, three elephants at the Bronx Zoo. They put an 8 foot square mirror on a wall of the animals play area (out of the sight of zoo visitors) and recorded what happened with cameras, including one built in the mirror.

The elephants used their long noses to find what was behind it, and to examine parts of their bodies.

Of the three, Happy then passed the test, in which a clear mark was painted on one side of her face. She could tell the mark was there by looking in the mirror, and she used the mirror to touch the mark with her long nose.

Diana Reiss said, “We knew elephants were intelligent, but now we can talk about their intelligence in a better way.”

48. Mirror tests can tell us whether animals ___ .

A. have large brains

B. have self-awareness

C. are intelligent

D. want to play with mirrors

49. The author mention apes and dolphins in the text because they are ___ .

A. most familiar to readers

B. big favorites with zoo visitors

C. included in the study by Reiss

D. already known to be intelligent

50. What made Happy different from Maxine and Patty?

A. She used her nose to search behind the mirror.

B. She recognized her own image in the mirror.

C. She painted a mark on her own face.

D. She found the hidden camera.
