A survey by an international temporary service agency found that American managers believe that
people with a sense of humor do better at their jobs, compared with those who have little or no sense of humor. In fact, about 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humor do better.
The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humor may help light-hearted
employees keep their jobs during tough times. And, what's more, it may push them up the corporate ladder past their humorless colleagues. Why? It seems that those with a sense of humor are better communicators and better team players.
Studies have shown that happy workers are more productive. In fact, a researcher at California State University found that humor could help the employees to release tension.
Research done by psychologist Dr. Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humor helps us think. When people feel stuck on important projects, they tend to feel angry or depressed. According to Dr. Trice's research, taking time out to laugh can help us to get rid of negative feelings and allow us to return to a task or move on to another project unaffected by past defeat.
If humor is really this important, then why don't we use it more often on the job? Most likely, the main reason is that many people are unaware of the positive effects of humor in the workplace. However, it is important to realize that some humor is not suitable for the workplace, and that it is often used at wrong times.
1. Most people think a sense of humor can ________.
A. help you to do your work better B. make you have a rich life
C. make you pleased with your work D. help you to make more friends
2. Many people don't use humor more in the workplace because ________.
A. they like keeping silent when working
B. they don't know the positive effects of humor C. they think they should obey the rules D. they don't like joking or laughing
3. A person without a sense of humor is easier ________.
A. to feel surprised B. to get along with C. to be worried D. to be successful 4. What is probably the best title for the article?
A. People with a Sense of Humor
B. Humor Is Important in the Workplace C. Humor and Humorless D. Everyone Likes Humor
题二十：
Several times my daughter had telephoned to say, “Mum, you must come and see the daffodils (水仙花) before they are over.” I wanted to go, but it was a two-hour drive from
Lake Arrowhead. “I will go next Tuesday,” I promised, a little unwillingly, on her third call.The next Tuesday dawned cold and rainy. Still, I had promised, and so I drove there. When I finally walked into Carolyn's house and hugged and greeted my grandchildren, I said, “Forget the daffodils, Carolyn! The road is invisible (看不见的)in the cloud and fog, and there is nothing in the world except you and these children that I want to see！”
My daughter smiled calmly and said, “We drive in this weather all the time, Mum. You will never
forgive yourself if you miss this experience.”
After about twenty minutes, we turned onto a small road and I saw a small church. On the far side of the church, I saw a hand-lettered sign that read “Daffodil Garden”.
We got out of the car and each took a child's hand, and I followed Carolyn down the path. Then, we turned a corner of the path, and I looked up and gasped. Before me lay the most beautiful sight! There were five acres of flowers! “But who has done this？” I asked Carolyn. “It's just one woman,” Carolyn answered. “That's her home,” Carolyn pointed to a well-kept A-frame house that looked small and modest in the midst of all that glory. We walked up to the house. On the patio (庭院), we saw a poster. “Answers to the Questions I Know You Are Asking” was the headline.
The first answer was a simple one. “50,000 bulbs (鳞茎),” it read. The second answer was, “One at a time, by one woman.” The third answer was, “Began in 1958.”
I thought of this woman whom I had never met, who, more than fifty years before, had begun — one bulb at a time — to bring the beauty and joy to the mountain top. 1. The author didn't go to see the daffodils at first because ________.
A. she was not interested in them
B. they were growing on the mountain top C. the weather was not good enough D. it was not easy for her to drive there
2. What do we know about the woman living in the A-frame house?
A. She must be out of mind. B. She acted as a gardener there.
C. It took her great determination to grow the daffodils. D. She was poor and made her living by selling daffodils. 3. What could the author probably learn from this experience?
A. Nothing is too difficult if you put your heart into it. B. We must put the interests of others above our own. C. We can change the world by growing flowers. D. It's never too late to learn.
4. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. An Unforgettable Experience B. Beautiful Daffodils C. One Bulb at a Time D. I Love Daffodils

课后练习参考答案
题一： D
解析：本句意为：据报道现在在灾区许多新房子正在被建造。根据at present可知是现在，房子和建造之间构成被动关系，所以要用现在进行时的被动语态，当many a后面跟名词单数做主语的时候，后面的谓语动词要用单数谓语动词。现在进行时被动语态结构为am/is/are+being+过去分词。 题二： D
解析：本句意为：由于更多的森林正在被破坏，每年大量的沃土正在被冲走。根据句意可知是现在的情况，主语good earth和冲走之间构成被动关系，所以要用现在进行时的被动语态，huge quantities of引导名词做主语的时候，后面的谓语动词要根据quantity的形式决定，所以此处要用复数谓语动词。现在进行时被动语态结构为am/is/are + being + 过去分词。 题三： B
解析：本句意为：—为什么他们没有准时开车到那儿? —因为那条路正在被修理。此处表示开车的那个过去时间为什么按时到达，答句表示当时路正在被修理，所以要用过去进行时的被动语态，过去进行时被动语态结构为was/were+being+过去分词。 题四： C
解析：本句意为：去年的这个时候这里正在种许多树。具体的过去时间作状语，主句中要用过去进行时，而且trees和plant之间构成被动关系，所以要用过去进行时的被动语态，过去进行时被动语态结构为was/were+ being + 过去分词。 题五： C
解析：本句意为：每天都会看见Mary做早操。看见某人做某事要用see sb. do sth.，被动语态是sb. be seen to do sth.，即被动语态中do的前面需要加动词不定式符号to。 题六： A
解析：本句意为：John作为惩罚被要求洗车一周。使得某人做某事make sb. do sth.的被动语态是sb. be made to do sth.，在被动语态中do前面的不定式符号to不可以省略。 题七： B
解析：本句意为：我感谢你昨天回电话。appreciate后面跟动词要用动词的-ing形式，此处your是后面的-ing形式的逻辑主语。 题八： A
解析：本句意为：新的证据使得这个小偷被捉。lead to后面跟动词要用动词的-ing形式，此处the thief’s是后面的-ing形式的逻辑主语。小偷应该是被抓到，所以要用being caught的形式。 题九： A
解析：本句意为：这种布洗起来很容易。此处wash是不及物动词，表示主语的性质，意思是“洗起来”，没有被动语态。 题十： B
解析：本句意为：这本书里的故事很容易读。此处read是不及物动词，表示主语的性质，意思是“读起来”，没有被动语态，而且主语是复数名词，所以谓语动词read后不加s。
