它要求参赛者互相面对面开始大笑,由观众来决定谁笑得最有感染力。

The First American Laughing Championship in San Diego The first­ever American Laughing Championship is taking place in San Diego.The contest is the first national championship in the US,although Canadian filmmaker,Albert Nerenberg,has organised national laughing contests in Canada and Japan and a state championship in California back in 2010.The contest requires the chosen laughers to face off against each other as the audience determine who has the most attractive laugh.Daunte Reed is one of about twelve people competing in the contest.He is hoping to be a winner of the title of top laugher.“I've been told I have an attractive laugh.It doesn't take much to make me laugh,”Reed said.The contest includes the belly laugh,the crazy laugh and the diabolical laugh.The last one is the most challenging,according to Nerenberg,who said the goal is to make the audience laugh with your laugh.“The solo laughing requires a good voice.However,the other laugh styles require someone to get the audience laughing;a good diabolical laugh requires the laugher to infect himself and start laughing naturally,”he explained.“The person who wins isn't always the best,but the top three people are always the best.These people bring more joy to the world.They tend to be happy types.We've never had a sad person win so far,”he added.[阅读障碍词]1.attractive adj.吸引人的2.belly n.腹部;肚子3.diabolical adj.魔鬼般的4.solo n.独奏adj.单独的5.infect v.(使)感染[诱思导读]阅读短文,回答下列问题。

Unit 1 Laughter is good for you课时练1 阅读理解提速练[学生用书P308(单独成册)]Ⅰ阅读理解A(2019·济南针对性训练)Nathan, a freshman student at San Marino High School in California, U.S., doesn’t like doing housework any more than anybody else. But he said doing it made him wonder why hot water worked better than cold water when washing up after dinner, and what made soap a good cleaner. The experiments he designed to figure out these things earned him the top prize at the 2016 Broadcom MASTERS.MASTERS stands for Math, Applied Science, Technology and Engineering for Rising Stars. Every year, the event brings together 30 middle school students from around the country to share their science projects.“At first, I thought that my ideas were naive,” the teenager told Student Science. “But when I was presented with this special award, it proved that young inventors can actually deal with real­world problems.”Inspired by reports of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, he connected washing dishes to cleaning oil spills. “I decided that I wanted to find a method for cleaning that’s both efficient and environmentally friendly,” Nathan told Student Science. So he created his own setup for measuring surface tension—a scientific term that refers to the tension of a layer of liquid. He ended up learning why soap and hot water are better for cleaning, and a way to remove oil from water.“Science and math help you understand the world around you. You can learn it from books and teachers, but you can also discover it yourself by doing science projects.” He even plans to sell his setup to schools, so other teens can do his experiment and learn his theory.When asked his secret to success, he said to keep a science fair project simple at first. “Break down the problem into smaller, manageable steps, so in that way, you will be able to know what you are doing and build on your knowledge gradually.”【解题导语】本文主要介绍了一个美国高中生的创造发明获得MASTERS奖的故事。

Known as “The Man with the Golden Arm”,nearly every week for the past 60 years,James Harrison has donated blood plasma(血浆)from his right arm.The reasons can date back to a serious medical procedure.“When I was 14,I had a chest operation,” recalls Harrison,who is now aged 80.“My father said I had received 13 units of blood and my life had been saved by unknown people.So I said when I'm old enough,I'll become a blood donor.”Soon after Harrison became a donor,doctors called him in.His blood,they said,could be the answer to a deadly problem.“In Australia,up until about 1967,there were about thousands of babies dying each year because of the rhesus disease(恒河猴溶血病),” explains Jemma Falkenmire,of the Australian Red Cross Blood Service.Harrison was discovered to have an unusual antibody (抗体)in his blood and in the 1960s he worked with doctors to use the antibodies to develop an injection(注射)called Anti­D which can prevent this disease.Harrison's blood is precious.Every batch of Anti­D that has ever been made in Australia has come from Harrison's blood.He and Anti­D are credited with saving the lives of more than 2 million babies,according to the Australian Red Cross Blood Service:That's about 2 million lives saved by one man's blood.Harrison is considered a national hero,and has won numerous awards.He has now donated his plasma more than 1,000 times,but no matter how many times he's given blood there's one thing that will never change:“I look at the ceiling or the nurse s,maybe talk to them a bit,but never once have I watched the needle go in my arm.I can't stand the sight of blood,and I can't stand pain,” he says.1.What was the main reason for Harrison's becoming a blood donor?A.He has a golden arm.B.He has precious blood plasma.C.His father encouraged him to help others.D.Donated blood once made him survive.2.Why is James' blood precious?A.James has the Anti­D in his blood.B.His blood is more useful in treating the rhesus disease.C.James' blood is the main sourc e of Anti­D in Australia.D.James has donated more plasma than other donators.3.How does Harrison feel when donating his plasma?A.Nervous. B.Relaxed.C.Anxious D.Excited.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了James Harrison用自己的血液挽救了超过两百万名婴儿生命的故事。
