【推荐3】People use laughter to communicate with others. It’s how we tell friends that we find their jokes funny, or how kids in a park show that they are having fun. Humans laugh to express many kinds of feelings, from happy to sad, from like to hate and so on. But how about animals? Do they also laugh? If they do laugh, is there a connection between animals’ laughing and playing?
A study shows that not only humans but also some animals enjoy good laughter. Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles UCLA, suggested that a number of animals can laugh. Through their research, they found that 65 kinds or groups of animals laugh while playing. The animals that laugh the most include monkeys, rats and dolphins.
Animal sound sometimes is like a short laughter, but scientists said that not all of these are connected to playing. After all, animals sometimes make sound as if they are laughing but in fact, they are in danger, or perhaps they are using it to fight with animals that may eat them.
Sasha Winkler, a scientist studying animal behavior, noticed that the small monkeys she worked with liked to play together by catching each other. While having fun together, they made panting sounds, almost like they were out of breath, which reminded Winkler of quiet laughter. In that sense, researchers pointed out very interesting ideas of laughter and panting. They believe that laughter comes from heavy breathing during play.
Study suggests that many animals laugh so that their playing partner knows they are having fun. This is important because animal play can sometimes look like fighting. Laughter becomes a way for animals to stop harmful act when communicating with others. Some animals also make a “play face” like a smile to show that they are happy and not angry.
One big difference between human laughter and animal laughter is that humans laugh much more loudly. Most sounds animals make during play are very quiet so they can only be heard by the animal they are playing with. But for humans, loud laughter is a sign that we’re part of a group. “It’s really amazing that so many animals have a similar function of sound during play,” said Winkler. “These special parts of animal laughter will also be an important area for future study.”

【推荐1】My name is Tony Fontes. I am a native Californian. In 1979 I went diving at the Great Barrier Reef for the first time. I was so amazed by the experience that I decided to stay in Australia. For the past 42 years, I have lived at Airlie Beach. It’s a small seaside community in the heart of the Great Barrier Reef.
As a dive instructor(教练), I spend much of my time underwater. Through careful observation, I have noted heartbreaking changes in the environment. One of them is the increase in coral bleaching(珊瑚白化). This serious problem happens when the green and brown coral reefs(礁)lose their colors and turn white. In the early 1980s, bleaching was not a serious problem. By the mid-1990s, it was happening each summer. The late 1990s and early 2000s brought some of the largest bleaching events on record. You could even see the bleached coral from the air. Unlike before, these more recent bleaching events have resulted in the death of the coral.
Coral bleaching and many other dangerous changes are being caused by climate change, especially global warming. It often takes ten years for a coral reef to fully recover. However, more bleaching events are taking place each year. It’s hard to say whether the bleached coral will ever recover. If the world’s coral reefs are to survive, we must keep the global increase in ocean temperature below two degrees Celsius. We need to reduce our emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide and pay more attention to the health of our oceans. All of us can do something to save the coral. Take action now. It’s going to be hard to explain to our kids how we lost the beautiful Great Barrier.
1. The underlined word “heartbreaking” can be replaced(代替)by _____________.A.vey sad | B.very incrusting | C.very exciting | D.very important |
A.The increase in coral bleaching. | B.The cause of coral bleaching. |
C.The changes in the environment. | D.The beauty of coral bleaching. |
A.It is difficult for us to save the coral. |
B.It is important for us to save the coral. |
C.It is impossible for us to improve the situation. |

【推荐3】Social media (社交媒体) is certainly an interesting place to learn others’ opinions. You can read everything from strange ideas to true facts and everything in between. But when you’re spending time online and reading so many opinions, it’s quite possible that you’ll sometimes see someone write something that you strongly disagree with.
In fact, you might feel so strongly that you feel like you should reply to this person at once. You might do some research, find some facts of your own and reply to what they’ve written. You finish writing out your reply, click “Post” and win the argument.
However, it’s not really much of a victory. Most people don’t like it when other people disagree with their ideas, especially online strangers (陌生人). It’s unlikely that they will change their opinion just because you argued with them. In fact, it’s possible that you make them feel more confident (自信的) that they’re correct. And the thing is, when you get in these kinds of fights online, it slowly influences (影响) you. You might not know it at first, but the argument that you take part in can actually have a bad influence on your mood. If you argue often, you start to enjoy arguing and then end up doing it even more. It’s a dangerous cycle.
I guess the best thing to do is to tell yourself that most arguments aren’t worth it. There are much better and more interesting things to do, whether online or in real life.
1. How does the author feel about social media?A.People seldom use it to argue. |
B.Many people use it to voice their opinions. |
C.It is a good way to communicate with strangers. |
A.You will face a lot of dangers. | B.You might feel bad and argue more. | C.You will get better at arguing. |

【推荐1】You need some bread and milk. But half an hour later, you leave the supermarket with a trolley(手推车)full of food. What games do supermarkets play to make us spend so much money?
The tricks usually start before you walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybody who walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready to buy lots of food, not just bread.
Now you're inside and, of course, a small basket would be fine, but all they have are trolleys. And of course the problem with a trolley is that it looks sad and lonely with just one or two products inside. So we may fill it with something. In fact, supermarket trolleys are actually getting bigger so that we buy more.
Of course, many people shop in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in other shops. So supermarkets offer very cheap prices on some things but then have higher prices for other products. One new trick is to put red stickers on products. Customers usually connect red stickers with lower prices so the red stickers is easy to be noticed, even when there is no reduction! Interestingly, this trick appears to work more with men than with women.
There is a story behind the position of everything in the supermarket. For example, customers often go only to buy milk. So they put it right at the back, forcing you to go past hundreds of shelves full of other products. The position of products on each shelf is also important. The most expensive products are usually at eye-level so you see these immediately. The exception is anything that children might like. These products are on lower shelves so that kids see them.
Apart from what you see and smell in a supermarket, what about what you listen to? In most supermarkets they have soft, slow music. It's so relaxing that you slow down and spend more time (and money) in the store. You also move more slowly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it's better to shop when it's quieter, on a Monday or a Tuesday for example. And be careful with queues at the checkouts. These are sometimes deliberate(故意), to make you buy something from the checkout shelves while you wait.
So, next time you go into your local supermarket, remember these tricks and see if you can come with just the things you went for.

【推荐3】Rainforestsare some of the most beautiful places on the Earth. Tall trees grow high into the air. Millions of different kinds of animals run and play under the trees. Rainforests cover two percent of the earth, but they have over 50 percent of the world’s plants and animals.
It takes at least one minute to plant a tree. In that minute, 60 hectares(亩) of rainforests are destroyed forever. Six kinds of animals become extinct; they will never be seen again.
Every second, people cut down one hectare of rainforests. They use the trees to make things like paper. Because they cut down the trees so fast, the rainforests become smaller and smaller. By 2030, they will all be gone.
You can help save the rainforests. Try not to use too much paper; then paper companies will not cut down so many trees.

The shop was filled with colorful jewelry and other things made of glass. One of the pieces caught a jeweler’s eye. It was shining so brightly that the jeweler thought it was a precious diamond(珍贵的钻石). He asked the shop owner,” What’s the price of this piece?”
“20 dollars,” replied the owner.
The jeweler wanted to save some money, so he said, “I can give you only 15 dollars for it.”
The shop owner refused.
There weren’t many people around the shop, so the jeweler thought to himself, “If I come back later, the shop owner may change his mind.” After hanging about for a while, he returned to the shop, only to find the piece missing. He asked the shop owner, “Where is the piece I asked for a moment ago?”
The shop owner replied , “I sold it for 20 dollars.”
The jeweler got angry and said,” What a fool(傻瓜)you are! It was not a glass piece but a precious diamond.”
