I.阅读理解
A
With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives.Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps(处于沮丧中），as the saying goes,makes me feel good and
warms my heart.
How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, close friend, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy（礼貌）to speak to others that are around you.
I know of a few people that don't have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say. Everyone round them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face. They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting a gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space. How can people not get a really funny joke
Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to bypass the sadness and bring a little light into our lives. So, I believe our best medicine is to get together and tell some jokes and have some fun laughing together.

A.it makes people more confident B.it can pick up people's spirits
C.it can help rid the cruelty in the world D.it can help people get on well with others

4. What is the author's attitude towards the present world
A.Passive. B.Critical. C.Satisfied. D.Indifferent.
B
I was selfish as a teenager. I usually spent my time thinking about myself and taking care of my own needs. I let my older brother do most of the work around the house until he left for college. I let my mom and dad worry about our bills and problems while I read books, played, and lost myself in my own imagination. This didn’t change even when I went to college either. I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith, it was only to increase my own happiness.
I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.
Still, I didn’t give up on happiness, I knew that there must be a way to find it. I finally realized, however, that it had to include more than just my own needs, wants, and desires. The answer began to make itself clear one night shortly after my baby boy was born. I got a bottle and held him in my arms. As I was feeding him I looked down and saw his big, innocent, trusting eyes. I smiled and talked to him. Then he smiled and I could feel my heart growing, expanding with love. I felt such peace and joy. At that moment I had a hint of the truth: It is by growing our hearts with love that we find our happiness.
Carolyn Arends wrote：“The more people you let into your heart, the bigger your heart gets. The more love you get, the more love you have to give. It just keeps growing.” So, keep loving, keep living and keep caring. Keep growing your heart today, tomorrow, and always.

Rich as a King
WilliamⅠ, who conquered England some 950 years ago, had wealth, power and an army. Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time, he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶), paper towels, or a riding lawn mower(割草机). How did he get by
History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me. I have storm windows, Croesus did not. Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great, but he couldn’t buy cat food. Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.
Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people, you’d think I’d be content. The trouble is that, like most people, I compare my wealth with that of living persons: neighbors, school classmates, and famous TV people. The greed I feel toward my friend Howard’s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact that no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.
There is really no rising or falling standard of living. Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about. You’d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood, but no, we want a hot bath too.
Of course, one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today’s standards the things I own are pretty nice. My house is smaller than the houses of many investment bankers, but even so it has a lot more rooms that my wife and I can keep clean.
Besides, to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future, these bankers’ fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby. I can’t keep up with my neighbors right now. But just wait.

C．teach us to learn lessons from life
D．encourage us to struggle for wealth
12．What’s the author’s attitude towards life

Music is not just a set of sounds and rhythms. Its influence on the brain is much deeper than any other human experience. Keep on reading to know all those amazing powers of music.
A recent study suggests that preterm(早产的）babies appear to experience less pain and feed more when
listening to music. Experts led by Dr Manoi Kumar of the University of Alberta, Canada analyzed nine clinical trials and found that music had a beneficial effect on lessening pain for preterm babies experiencing painful medical procedures such as blood tests. It also appeared to benefit full-term babies during operations.
Many people experiencing brain damage have speech and movement-related problems. Music can help recover from brain injuries. As an alternative and effective treatment, doctors often recommend such patients to listen to good music to promote the parts of the brain responsible for these two functions. When people with neurological(神经的）disorders caused by a stroke or Parkinson's disease hear a musical beat, it helps them to regain a balanced walk.Though music cannot cure deafness, it really can stave off the loss of hearing. There was an experiment
involving 163 people where 74 were musicians. Participants were asked to pass some listening tests. Musicians heard the sounds better than non-musician, and this difference gets more evident with age. This means that a 70-year-old musician hears better than a 50-year-old non-musician, even in a noisy environment.
Besides, music heals a broken heart. It is not about a cast-off love, but about a heart attack,The matter is that music can help people recover from a heart seizure(心脏病突发）or heart surgery by reducing blood pressure, slowing down the heartbeat rate, and relieving anxiety. Listening to the quality music produces positive emotions, improves circulation, and expands blood vessels, thus, promoting quick recovery of the whole cardiovascular(心血管的）system.
How does music affect preterm babies
A.It helps reduce their pain. B.It helps develop their potential in music.
C.It helps improve their hearing systems. D.It helps repair their neurological system.
14. What does the underlined phrase"stave off”in Paragraph 4 mean
A.Lead to. B.Increase. C.Make for. D.Prevent.
15. Why can music heal a broken heart
A.It has a positive effect on human body systems' work.
B.It can help people prevent diseases caused by anxiety.
C.It helps make a person feel optimistic about life.
D.It can help patients recover in a relaxed way.
16. What is the passage mainly about
A.Who can benefit from music. B.The best time to listen to music.

V. 概要写作 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
According to a study at the University of Marland Medical Center in Baltimore, researchers found that people who had a good sense of humor and laughed a lot, not only at home but also at work, had fewer heart problems than people who laughed less, and laughing people tend to live a longer life than the ones who are not.
After reading plenty of information about the benefits of laughing and a careful study of previous papers in this area, a doctor in India started a laughter club. Dr.Mandan Damaris's laughter club quickly grew into 1,800 groups throughout India and over 6,000 around the world. The laughter club had even inspired World Laughter Day, which people celebrate on the first Sunday of May every year. Instructors at the clubs get people laughing not only through jokes but through simple laughing exercises. For example, instructors and participants repeat the chant"ho-ho-ho" and ha-ha-ha"together. What's more,participants also do the"Lion laugh"by sticking out their tongues and waving their hands around their ears. Other exercises focus on breathing and simple yoga－exercises. In a word, all the activities that can cause laugh are included in the clubs.
These laughter clubs are very popular in hospitals and nursing homes nowadays in India, where participants can forget about their aches and pains while laughing. It seems that laughing may be just as important as eating right and exercising.
Not everyone can join a laughter club, but we all can take part in the same practice. According to the doctor, besides taking part in the clubs, everyone can do something to make themselves laugh. How can you make laughing a part of your daily routine If you feel funny about joining a laughter club, you can rent a funny movie, remember a funny experience, do some sports, go to the zoo watch the monkeys or even, Just make yourself laugh. You will not be able to keep a straight face all the time.
So, don't worry; be happy. Laugh a little and live longer.

I studied hard but only to make my own life better. Even when I started to explore my faith, it was only to increase my own happiness.
I married after graduation and decided to start a family. Of course, I had no idea what hard knocks reality had in store for my selfish soul. Soon I found myself unemployed, deeply in debt, and with a new baby on the way. I found out that life has little sympathy for spoiled people. In fact, all of the struggles I was going through were beating the selfishness slowly out of me.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。港珠澳大桥有望在未来开通5G网络服务。
1．longest 解析：考查形容词的最高级。根据语境及空前的“the”可知，此处表示作为世界上最长的跨海大桥，故填形容词的最高级。
2．to have 解析：考查非谓语动词。此处表示未来有望开通5G网络服务。此处be expected to do sth.意为“有望做某事”，为固定用法，所以此处用动词不定式。
3．operator 解析：考查词性转换。此处表示大桥的网络操作员。故填operator。
4．which 解析：考查关系代词。分析句子结构可知，此处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词“The 55 km Hong Kong Zhuhai Macao Bridge”，且从句中缺少主语，所以填which。
5．of 解析：考查介词。分析句子结构可知，此处lack为名词，lack of sth.意为“缺乏某物”，为固定用法。
6．a 解析：考查冠词。此处表示它可以被看作是无线技术的一种独特应用。application作“应用”讲时，可用作可数名词，且unique的发音以辅音音素开头，所以填不定冠词a。

8．Actually 解析：考查副词。句意：实际上，港珠澳大桥现已准备好接入物联网，物联网是5G技术将实现的一项重要业务。根据句意并分析句子结构可知，此处用副词作状语。
9．has been considered 解析：考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。根据句首的“Since”可知，主句应用现在完成时；主语“the technological base”与consider之间为被动关系，所以此处用现在完成时的被动语态。又因主语techological base为单数，故填has been considered。
10．as 解析：考查固定搭配。分析句子结构可知，“network architecture, room for 5G station”以及“the installment(安装) of fiber”构成并列关系，故用as well as“也，还”，其为固定搭配。
V. 概要写作 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
According to a study at the University of Marland Medical Center in Baltimore, researchers found that people who had a good sense of humor and laughed a lot, not only at home but also at work, had fewer heart problems than people who laughed less, and laughing people tend to live a longer life than the ones who are not.
After reading plenty of information about the benefits of laughing and a careful study of previous papers in this area, a doctor in India started a laughter club. Dr.Mandan Damaris's laughter club quickly grew into 1,800 groups throughout India and over 6,000 around the world. The laughter club had even inspired World Laughter Day, which people celebrate on the first Sunday of May every year. Instructors at the clubs get people laughing not only through jokes but through simple laughing exercises. For example, instructors and participants repeat the chant"ho-ho-ho" and ha-ha-ha"together. What's more,participants also do the"Lion laugh"by sticking out their tongues and waving their hands around their ears. Other exercises focus on breathing and simple yoga－exercises. In a word, all the activities that can cause laugh are included in the clubs.
These laughter clubs are very popular in hospitals and nursing homes nowadays in India, where participants can forget about their aches and pains while laughing. It seems that laughing may be just as important as eating right and exercising.
Not everyone can join a laughter club, but we all can take part in the same practice. According to the doctor, besides taking part in the clubs, everyone can do something to make themselves laugh. How can you make laughing a part of your daily routine If you feel funny about joining a laughter club, you can rent a funny movie, remember a funny experience, do some sports, go to the zoo watch the monkeys or even, Just make yourself laugh. You will not be able to keep a straight face all the time.
