So often they get _36_, and occasionally they come back to bite you! Then, just last week, after a long travel, I found myself _37_ at a bus station. The bus was four hours late! So, I guess I wasnt in a good _38_. Thats when a woman asked me if I had any spare _39_ to help her get a bus ticket. “Oh, sure,” I said sarcastically (挖苦地). “How much would you like?” As I spoke, I mentally kicked myself for my _40_ and reached into my bag for some money. As I handed her five dollars, I heard low sounds from her stomach because of real _ 41_. I reached back into my bag and brought out a _42_ I had bought earlier. I handed it to her with a smile that I hoped would make up for my earlier tone of voice. Getting a _43_ look at her now, I realized she was extremely tired, like she had had several months of tough days! As she took the food, a look of _44_ washed over her. In return, she tried to give me a Milwaukee bus ticket! I dont live in Milwaukee and the ticket will probably never be used, but I took it. A few minutes later she came back over, apologized, and told me she was still _45_ of five dollars. I took some singles out of my bag and slipped a twenty in there as well. _46_, the voice in my head told me I was being a fool.Five minutes later she came back again and tried to _47_ my twenty. When I said it was for her so she could get something else to _48_, and that I was completely serious and I wasnt taking it back, she started crying and hugged me. From now on, when I wonder if it is worth trying to help someone, I will remember that woman. Maybe I am really making a _49_ for someone. So, sure, sometimes my efforts might not be noticed, and sometimes they might come back to bite me, but they might actually _50_ another human being!36.

He appeared in more than 800 commercials (商业广告) for the hamburger chain named for his daughter, “As long as it works ,” he said in 1991, “Ill continue to do those commercials.” Even though he was successful, Thomas remained troubled by his childhood. “He still wont let anyone see his feet, which are out of shape because he never had proper-fitting shoes,” Wendy said in 1993. Born to a single mother, he was adopted (收养) as a baby by Rex and Auleva Thomas of Kalamazoo in Michigan. After Auleva died when he was 5, Thomas spent years on the road as Rex traveled around seeking construction work. “He fed me,” Thomas said, “and if I got out of line, hed beat me.” Moving out on his own at 15, Thomas worked, first as a waiter, in many restaurants. But he had something much better in mind. “I thought if I owned a restaurant,” he said, “I could eat for free.” A 1956 meeting with Harland Sanders led Thomas to a career as the manager of a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant that made him a millionaire in 1968. In 1969, after breaking with Sanders, Thomas started the first Wendys Old Fashioned Hamburgers, in Columbus, Ohio, which set itself apart by serving made-to-order burgers. With 6,000 restaurants worldwide, the chain now makes $ 6 billion a year in sales.Although troubled by his own experience with adoption, Thomas, married since 1954 to Lorraine, 66, and with four grown kids besides Wendy, felt it could offer a future for other children. He started the Dave Thomas Foundation (基金会) for Adoption in 1992.In 1993, Thomas, who had left school at 15, graduated from Coconut Greek High School in Florida. He even took Lorraine to the graduation dance party. The kids voted him Most Likely to Succeed.“The Dave you saw on TV was the real Dave,” says friend Pat Williams. “He wasnt a great actor or a great speaker. He was just Joe Everybody.”51.

Men and women in France are seeking relief using the worlds best medicine laughter. In the past year more than 25 laughter clubs have been set up across the country. People of all ages go to release their stress with an hour of group laughs. “People telephoned me and said they have forgotten what it is to laugh. They want to find a place where they can escape all their problems for a while. So they come,” said 40-year-old Jocelyne Le Moan. She usually takes a class of around 60 people through a series of laughter techniques. Her pupils range from teenagers to 70 year olds, but most are middle-aged white collars seeking 60 minutes of relaxation at the end of a busy day. Le Moan takes them through the “lion laugh” and the “laugh contest”, where participants approach each other in different ways. And instead of talking, they break into fits of laughter. At the end there are 15 minutes of “meditation” (深思), when they lie on their backs and let the laughs burst out of their mouths. “I love it. Its an experience that has changed my life. Through it I rediscovered the childs laugh inside me,” said Romain Jouffroy, 24. “US President George W. Bush should give it a try. He has lost his laugh,” she joked. Like Jouffroy, many laughter-club members find themselves changed into children again, and why not? The average preschooler laughs up to 400 times a day. The average adult only a sad 7 to 15. The physical benefits of laughter are already well-recognized. Doctors say the act of laughing releases good chemicals into the blood-stream, while the quick breathing that accompanies it helps massage (按摩) the digestive organs and strengthens the heart. “A full hour is like having your insides go jogging! One finishes out of breath, but feels revitalized (产生新的活力). And on top of that, youve had a laugh,” said doctor Alexis dEstaing. And many participants in Paris also emphasize the psychological benefits. They believe that laughter is a way of making oneself feel more confident. “Maybe it is because we are surrounded by so many troubles that we feel the need to keep laughing,” said Anne Maurigiano, a 29-year-old filmmaker. 54. The underlined words “they break into fits of laughter” means _.A. they began to cheered each other up B. they burst out laughing at timesC. they keep fit by laughing loudlyD. they started laughing to fit themselves in55. From Romain Jouffroys joke about President Bush, we can infer she probably _ him.A. scoldsB. respectsC. pitiesD. dislikes56. What does the passage mainly tell us about?A. In France many people are too depressed to laugh.B. Many laughter clubs have been set up across France.C. Laughter clubs are the best place for people to get relief.D. People in France get relaxation through group laughs.CI live in the land of Disney, Hollywood. You may think people in such an attractive and exciting, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.Many intelligent people still consider happiness equal to fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more lasting emotion.Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax,
