試題分析:笑聲是人們生活中不可或缺的，沒(méi)有笑聲的生活是慘淡寂寞的。那么如何在我們的生活中尋找更多的快樂(lè)，獲得更多的笑聲呢？在本文中作者對(duì)此提出了幾條建議。

1.考查對(duì)上下文的理解和概括能力。在本段中作者通過(guò)講述Nancy Alguire的經(jīng)歷，說(shuō)明笑聲會(huì)感染人們，由此判斷B選項(xiàng)內(nèi)容符合語(yǔ)境，選B。

2.考查對(duì)上下文的理解和概括能力。根據(jù)上文內(nèi)容和空后內(nèi)容To this day, she still makes it a rule to be with people who enjoy life and laughing.可知過(guò)得開(kāi)心快樂(lè)的方法之一是要和快樂(lè)的人們?cè)谝黄穑屓藗兊拈_(kāi)心感染到自己，故判斷G選項(xiàng)可以起到承上啟下的作用，選G。

3.考查對(duì)上下文的理解和概括能力。本段中心內(nèi)容是建議人們收集自己喜歡的卡通和笑話，幽默，而D選項(xiàng)Keep a laughter file.“建立笑聲檔案”，內(nèi)容可以概括本段，選D。

4.考查對(duì)上下文的理解和概括能力。前后句內(nèi)容都是建議人們面對(duì)困境用笑聲去應(yīng)對(duì)，由此推斷A選項(xiàng)You can soften the worst blows through humor（用幽默去迎接最嚴(yán)重的打擊）內(nèi)容符合語(yǔ)境，選A。

5.考查對(duì)上下文的理解和概括能力。前句內(nèi)容告訴人們笑聲是每個(gè)人生來(lái)具備的能力，而F選項(xiàng)But it’s also something that has to be developed.也指出了laughter的特點(diǎn)，是對(duì)上句內(nèi)容的進(jìn)一步補(bǔ)充，故答案選F。
