He said I listened carefully and then took a chair and placed it in the center of the room. I
37 on the chair for a few minutes and then I invited everyone to do the same. I wanted them to look at the room from 38 there. After everyone had done it, I asked the group to think about how 39 the room looked when they changed their perspective(角度).

六、阅读理解(共15小题,计30分,其中第一节10小题,计20分;第二节5小题,计10分)
第一节:阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C 和D)中选出最佳选项。
A
Two children stood outside the door with old coats. “Any old papers, Lady?” asked one of them.
I was busy. I wanted to say no, but I saw that their shoes were broken and wet. “Come in and I’ll make you a cup of hot tea.” They came in, saying nothing. Their shoes left snow on the floor.
I gave them tea and bread to protect them against the cold outside. Then I went back to the kitchen and started my housework again.
The silence in the front room surprised me. I looked in.
The girl held the empty cup in her hands, looking at it. The boy asked me in a low voice, “Lady…are you rich?”
Am I rich? Oh, no! I looked at my old things in my room.
The girl put her cup back in its saucer(茶碟) carefully. “Your cups match your saucers.”
They left then, holding their papers against the wind. They hadn’t said thank you. They didn’t need to. They had done more than that. The blue cups and saucers were simple. But they said that they matched. The potatoes and meat before me, a roof over our hands, my husband with a job—these things matched, too.
I moved the chairs back from the fire and cleaned the living room. The prints of their small shoes were still wet on my floor. I let them be. I wanted them there to remind me how rich I was.
46. The writer let the two children in _________.
A. to offer them some warm clothes B. to serve them tea and food
C. to sell them some old papers D. to show them how rich she was.
47. We can learn from the passage that_______.
A. the writer was in fact not very rich B. the children took away many old papers
C. the writer’s husband was out of work D. the two children were looking for a job

B
There is an old saying in English, “Laughter is the best medicine”. Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to study laughter and the effects (作用) it has on the human body. They have found evidence that laughter really can improve people’s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be helpful.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to make the effect of pain on the body less. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group which could bear the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. The reason why laughter can make pain less seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins (内啡肽) in the brain. These are natural chemicals which make both stress and pain less.
There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body’s immune system that is the system which fights infection (感染). In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group — in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells that is the cells which fight infection.
As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病学) in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce good effects similar to those caused by laughter.
51. We learn from the first paragraph that laughter .
A. is good for one’s health B. has strong effects to do with some illness
C. has been studied long since D. has no effect on the body
52. Doctors have found that laughter .
A. keeps down blood pressure B. has similar effects to physical exercise
C. decreases the heart rate D. increases stress and pain
