• 11．The British are known for their sense of humor．However，it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes．The main point to remember is that the British often use understatement．
     Understatement means saying less than you think or feel．For example，if someone gets very wet in a shower of rain，he might say， "It's a little damp outside．" Or，if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person，someone else might say， "She isn't exactly friendly．" Understatement is often used in unpleasant situation or to make another person look silly．Understatement plays an important part in British humor．
     Another key to understanding British humor is that the British like to make fun of themselves as well as others．They often laugh about the silly and unpleasant things that happen to our everyday life when someone accidentally falls over in the street．They also like to make jokes about people from different classes of society．They like to make jokes about their accents，the way they dress and the way they behave．What's more，the British love to watch comedies about people who do not know how to behave in society．The comedies series Mr．Bean is a good example of this kind of humor．
     Mr．Bean is the character created by British actor Rowan Atkinson in 1990．Mr．Bean doesn't talk often，and instead he uses his body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh．Perhaps what makes Mr．Bean so funny is that he does things that adults in the real world cannot do．Mr．Bean is popular in many countries around the world because you do not have to speak English to understand the humor．Because of this，many people have become familiar with the British sense of humor．

• 12．Sports fans around the world are struggling to reconcile with the sudden loss of American basketball icon Kobe Bryant.The 41-year-old died on January 26，2020，when his private helicopter crashed into a hillside in Calabasas，California - about 30 miles away from Los Angeles.The crash also killed eight other passengers including his 13-year-old daughter Gianna.The extremely heavy fog condition is believed to have been a major factor.
     Bryant，who spent his entire 20-year-basketball career as a shooting guard for the Los Angeles Lakers，was born in Philadelphia.The basketball star，who decided to turn professional after graduating from high school，was selected by the Charlotte Hornets with the 13th overall pick，and then traded to the Lakers.At just 18 years old，he was the youngest player to be drafted in NBA history.The trade proved to be lucky for the Lakers.By his third year，Bryant had moved from being a reserve to the starting lineup.He had also firmly established himself as a star.In 2000，Bryant led the Lakers to their first NBA championship since 1988.The dream team continued to dominate the league for the next two years.
     In addition to helping the Lakers win two additional NBA titles in 2009 and 2010，Bryant was also a member of the basketball team responsible for bringing home the Olympic Gold medals in 2008 and 2012.By the time he retired in 2016，the 18-time NBA All-Star had played a total of 1，560 games and scored an astounding 33，043 points - a record surpassed by only three players Kareem Abdul-Jabar（38，387），Karl Malone （36，928），and James （33，655）- in the NBA's 73-year history.
     Though there are many ways to honor Bryant，the best way to pay tribute to one of the greatest sports heroes of all time may be to follow his philosophy on life： "Life is too short to be discouraged.You have to keep moving.Put one foot in front of the other，smile，and just keep on rolling." - Kobe Bryant，2008.

• 37．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫一段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
      My friend Ollie and I had been so excited to go to a winter break karate（空手道）camp.But at the last minute，lie had to drop out.I wanted to quit，too，but Ollie told me I would make many new friends there.
      When I arrived，I did feel calmer.Unfortunately，I felt worse again the moment I realized that most of the kids already knew each other.
      At lunchtime，a boy named Jack at our table said， "When we're on the trampoline（蹦床）tomorrow，I'm going to try that kick we just learned." I was confused.Why was he talking about a trampoline at a karate camp？ "Wait，you do know that this camp has trampoline time every other day，right？" Jack said "Oh，of course!" I said，swallowing down a bite of my sandwich. "That's cool.Who wants to have a contest tomorrow to see who can do the best trampoline tricks？" Tyler laughed.All the kids were excited to join. "What about you？You do know some trampoline tricks，right？" Tyler asked me. "Um，sure I do，" I said. "I'm in too!"
      I really didn't mean to tell a lie.It just happened!Maybe I was too eager to be perfect.After that，I felt torn in half.I wanted to keep going to the karate camp.But how could I face my new friends once they found out the truth？I'd never even been on a trampoline before，not to mention knowing any tricks.
      As I got home that day，I went straight to my bedroom.Since I didn't have a trampoline to practice on，I jumped on the bed.CRASH!I quickly fell off，hitting my desk and breaking my study lamp.Just then my friend Ollie came over to my home and I told him everything. "You always put pressure on yourself to be the best." he said，"Try being honest with them.What's wrong with being a beginner once in a while？" His words changed everything.
  注意：
  1.續(xù)寫一段文字；
  2.詞數(shù)100左右；
