5、 A survey by an international temporary service agency found that U.S.managers believe that people with a sense of humour do better at their jobs, compared with those who have little or no sense of humour.In fact, about 96 percent of those surveyed said people with a sense of humour do better.
The survey went on to point out that the results suggest that a sense of humour 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 humourless colleagues.Why? It seems that those with a sense of humour 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 humour could help the employees to release tension.
Research done by psychologist Dr.Ashton Trice at Mary Baldwin College in Virginia showed that humour 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 humour 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 humour in the workplace.However, it is important to realize that some humour is not suitable for the workplace, and that it is often used at wrong times.
1.Most people think a sense of humour can ________.
A.help you to do your work better

A.they like keeping silent when working
B.they don't know the positive effects of humour
C.they think they should obey the rules
D.they don't like joking or laughing
3.A person without a sense of humour 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 Humour.
B.Humour Is Important in the Workplace.
C.Humour and Humourless.

4、 People have been painting pictures for at least 30,000 years.The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals.They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill.Pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in France and Spain.No one knows why they were painted there.Perhaps the painters thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals.Or perhaps human beings have always wanted to tell stories in pictures.
About 5,000 years ago, the Egyptians and other people in the Near East began to use pictures as kind of writing.They drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas, and also to represent the sounds of their language.The signs these people used became a kind of alphabet.
The Egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting picture-writing and pictures together.When an important person died, scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried.Some of these pictures are like modern comic strip stories.It has been said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip.But, for the Egyptians, pictures still had magic power.So they did not try to make their way of writing simple.The ordinary people could not understand it.
By the year 1,000 BC, people who lived in the area around the Mediterranean Sea had developed a simpler system of writing.The signs they used were very easy to write, and there were fewer of them than in the Egyptian system.This was because each sign, or letter, represented only one sound in their language.The Greeks developed this system and formed the letters of the Greek alphabet.The Romans copied the idea, and the Roman alphabet is now used all over the world.
These days, we can write down a story, or record information, without using pictures.But we still need pictures of all kinds: drawing, photographs, signs and diagrams.We find them everywhere: in books and newspapers, in the street, and on the walls of the places where we live and work.Pictures help us to understand and remember things more easily, and they can make a story much more interesting.
