Artificial flowers are used for scientific as well as for decorative purposes, They are made from a variety of materials, such as wax (蜡) and glass, so skillfully that they can scarcely be distinguished from natural flowers. In making such models, painstaking skill and artistry（艺术技巧） are called for, as well as thorough knowledge of plant structure. The collection of glass flowers in the Botanical Museum（植物博物馆） of Harvard University is the most famous in North America and is widely known throughout the scientific world. In all, there are several thousand models in colored glass, the work of two artist–naturalists, Leopold Blaschka and his son Rudolph.

The intention was to have the collection represent at least one member of each flower family native to the United State. Although it was never completed, it contains more than seven hundred species representing 164 families of flowering plants, a group of fruits showing the effect of fungus（真菌） diseases, and thousands of flower parts and magnified details. Every detail of these is accurately reproduced in color and structure. The models are kept in locked cases as they are too valuable and fragile（易损坏的） for classroom use.

1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A) An extensive Collection of Glass Flowers B) The Lives of Leopold and Rudolph Blaschka. C) Flowers Native to the United States. D) Materials Used For Artificial Flowers.

Why do we laugh? For years scientists have asked themselves this question. No animals laugh and smile --- only human beings, so does laughing help us to live longer in any way. The answer seems to lie that smiling and laughing help us to become less worried and calm, preventing illnesses which are caused by stress. Laughing is really the best medicine. But if you’re unhappy, it can’t do you any good to smile, can it? That’s not true. It is clear that smiling works just in the same way whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of students to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fear---just using their faces. Changes in their heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were recorded. Most of the feelings they acted didn’t cause changes, but when the students smiled, their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. That happened even though they were only acting! So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better.

Now, what makes us laugh? It seems that the answer to the question is far from simple. Everyone likes jokes, but we don’t laugh at the same ones. It depends largely on how old we are. There’s a kind of joke, for example, which children love but older people might not find funny.

1. In the first paragraph, the underlined word ―stress‖ can be best explained as ―_____‖.

A). surprise and fear B). work and duties C). happiness and sadness D). pressure and worries 2. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

B) If you are in a bad mood, smiling helps to make you relieved.

C) Our blood pressure can be influenced by five different facial expressions mentioned. D) People, old and young, are likely to laugh at the same jokes. 3. In the passage, the writer seems to pay more attention to _____.

A) how laughing and smiling are connected with health B) comparing human beings with animals

C) the degree to which laughing and smiling are helpful D) finding out if any research has been done about laughing 4. The passage tells us that smiling and laughing _____.

A) have nothing to do with one’s heart rate B) do one no good when he is sad C) improve one’s blood pressure D) lower the temperature of the body 5. According to the author, _____.

A) it is rather complicated to answer the question ―Why do we laugh?‖ B) it is really simple to answer the question ―Why do we laugh?‖

C) there is a sharp difference between man’s laughing and animal’s laughing D) nationalities seem to disappear about jokes

How men first learn to invent words is unknown, in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other, and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters we call words.

The power of words, then, lies in their associations with the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our pass; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.

Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in

words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.

1. The origin of language is _______________. A) a legend handed down from the past B) a matter that is hidden or secret C) a question easy to answer D) a problem already solved

A) They are used to express feelings only. B) They can not be written down. C) They are simply sounds.

D) They can be used to associate thoughts.

4. The real power of words consists in their_______________ A) properties B) characteristics

C) peculiarity D) representative function

5.In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able to _____________. A) confuse the readers B) move men to tears C) move our action D)puzzle our feelings
