22、o find me in our third-floor bedroom, and we changed the channel from the presidential primary debate I had been watching to our local Pensacola, Florida, station.No sooner had we found coverage of the tornado than it was on top of us. It was the loudest thing I have ever heard. The bones of the hou

23、se shook, and the power went out. The wind began to roar through the house, most likely through blown-out windows and the door to our garage. We had three flights of steps to navigate to get to the relative safety of the first floor, because the cupboard down there is underneath a brick staircase. I

24、 didnt know how or if we would make it down the steps. It felt as if there were no floor underneath me as the wind lifted me off my feet. I tried to move forward, but this intense pressure held me in place. As we reached the last flight of steps, our front door blew out. Pieces of glass that looked

25、like crushed ice flew everywhere. Suddenly, a three-foot-long tree branch crashed into the door frame. It flew over our heads, missing us by inches. Had we been one step up, it would have hit us. By the time I reached the cupboard, the tornado had been over us for about a minute. Jimmy pushed me dow

26、n to the cupboard floor, but he couldnt get inside himself because of the wind. I held Jimmys arm and tried to bring Jimmy with it. My knees were full of glass, but at that moment, I felt no pain. If I had let go, Jimmy would have flown right out the back of the house and into the bay. All of a sudd

27、en, Jimmy lifted off his feet like people in tornadoes do in the movies. I thought he was gone. And then everything stopped. He landed on his feet.

Humor has been evaluated by many great minds such as Thomas Hobbes, who,

32、 in “On Nature”, disliked humor, “Laughter is nothing else but sudden glory arising from sudden thought of feeling far better than others.” He thought humor to be a negative quality of human narrow-mindedness  However, Mordechai Gordon, PhD of Education, insists, “Humor allows us to view the wo

33、rld from an angle that is amusing rather than serious.” I agree with Gordon. Learning to look at the world through humor is important.  In the United States, every four years an election occurs. Without humor as a way to express their feelings, how would Americans be willing to support the elec

34、tion? Television shows like “The Daily Show” have become important parts of American culture. They are mothering the masses by unconsciously inputting politics into mouths. They make politics fun.  Of course, politics is only one type of humor. Social humor helps people through the twists and t

35、urns of the human condition. American pop culture promotes an unhealthy self image. On the topic of self-image, Hari Kondabolu stands out. He has a joke about the popular musical group “The Pussycat Dolls”, describing their hit song “Dont Cha” as a negative representation of women. He points out an

36、obvious offence in American culture  A study from Loyola University of Maryland has shown that humor is one determining factor for selecting a mating partner. Amongst other things, mates look for an outstanding funny bone in a potential partner.  Of course, humor is not always used for goo

37、d purposes. Humor can be linked to vulgarity (粗俗) and racism, but, like everything else, it has potential to unite human beings by allowing us to laugh at ourselves, our failures and our connection with one another.  Though 1ife may seem tough and depressing at times, all I have to do is look i

The author is determined to face life with a sense of humor.D Over the last week, a “poisonous kale (甘藍(lán)菜)” theory has been going widespread after an article warned

42、 that the vegetable was associated with a variety of medical conditions. Its time to separate fear from fact on the health benefits of kale. As a member of the cabbage family, kale is low in calories and rich in nutrients and minerals, especially vitamin A, C and K. Consumed for thousands of years,

43、its been a health plus for millions of eaters throughout the world. However, numerous web articles have reported on some evidence offered by a medicine researcher. The researcher found that thallium (鉈) was detected in a few people who were heavy consumers of kale. Thallium is a heavy metal often fo

44、und in trace amounts (微量) in soil and minerals. His conclusion was that these medical conditions were connected to the impact that trace amounts of thallium detected in some kale samples had on the body. I dont think the conclusion is based on a strict scientific basis. Its essential to point out th

45、at the original report was in a web magazine, not a scientific journal which is subject to peer review by other scientists. A scientific review includes a careful evaluation of how the findings and conclusions were made. Certain factors are critical before an evidence-based conclusion can be made, s

46、uch as: how many people were in a study; how well controlled were other factors; how much kale was consumed and for how long; how much thallium was in the kale. It is a fact that kale and other vegetables can absorb thallium from the soil. But the ability for a plant to absorb traces of a chemical d

47、oes not automatically make it harmful to your health. And even finding measurable amounts of thallium in someones body doesnt imply that the thallium is causing an ill health effect, according to the CDC.But we can still learn a lesson from this. Plants grow in soil. Growers must continue to be

48、 careful in monitoring the quality of their soil. And what about consumers? Eat your kale and include lots of other colorful fruits and vegetables. As with all things in nature, variety is key for good health.33.The medicine researcher made a conclusion that _.A. these medical conditions were relate
