答案： 1 B 根据下文中的"Jokes"可知,此处表示讲笑话。故选 B。2 C 根据空前的"colorful and"并结合选项可知,空处应是描述笑话对语言的积极影响。故选 C。3 A 根据空后的"are interested in"可知,此处是说如果你让人笑了,就能知道他们对你的话题感兴趣。故选 A。4 C on TV"在电视上"为固定搭配。故选 C。5 D 根据下文中的"Then you can have more jokes"可知,此处是说当你在节目中听到一些笑话时,你最好把它们写下来。turn sth. down 表示"把……调低,拒绝";knock sth. down 表示"击倒,撞倒";put sth. down 表示"把……放下";write sth. down 表示"写下,记下"。故选 D。6 B tell jokes 表示"讲笑话"。故选 B。7 C 根据空后的"write your own jokes to tell at a party"可知,此处指的是英语足够好的话可以自己写笑话。故选 C。8 B 根据空后的"a speech"可知,此处指在演讲之前讲笑话来破冰。故选 B。9 B 空处作 feel 的表语,表示不会让别人感到不舒服。故选 B。10 C 下文中讲述了让笑话变得更有趣的方法,故此处应用 How 提问,询问的是方式。11 B 根据下文中的"Some English words sound funny"可知,此处说的是不是所有英语单词听上去都有趣。故选 B。12 C 主语是"Some English words",反身代词用 themselves。故选 C。13 C 根据上文中的"Some English words sound funny by 12 , while others can get a laugh only in phrases or sentences"可知,有些英语单词本身听起来就很有趣,而另一些单词只有在短语或句子中才能博得笑声,所以要选择。故选 C。14 D 空处前后内容是因果关系,空后表示结果,用 so 连接。15 D for example"例如";of course"当然";at least"至少";after all"毕竟"。根据空后的"is just a way"可知,如果别人在你讲笑话后不笑,不要难过,毕竟,讲英语笑话只是帮助你学习英语的一种方式。
