Hannay was nervous. His enemies were searching for him. All around him were grassy hills without trees. He had nowhere to hide. How could he escape?
Hannay walked along the country road for a long time. Then he saw a road worker, who was working alone, fixing the road. Hannay could see the road worker was not feeling well. Hannay came up to him and said, “How are you?”
“My head hurts,” the road worker said, “I can't do it. I want to go home to bed. My daughter got married yesterday, and I drank a lot of wine with my friends. That's the problem!”
Hannay agreed that he should be home in bed.
“Yes, and I would be,” he replied, “but yesterday I received a message saying that the new surveyor was coming to look at my work. If he comes and finds me away, I'll be in trouble.”
Suddenly Hannay had a bright idea—he could act as the road worker and get away from his enemies.
“You go off to bed,” Hannay said. “I'll do your job until the new surveyor comes.”
The road worker was pleased with his idea. He gave Hannay his hat and his old coat. Then he went home to sleep and perhaps to drink a bit more. Hannay put on the road worker's hat and coat and began to fix the road. About an hour later he heard a voice.
“Are you the road worker?” it asked.
It was the new surveyor. He was a young man with a clean face. He sat in a small car.
Hannay said yes. The surveyor told him about some work he wanted him to do before he came by again and drove off. Hannay continued with his work.
Then a village boy came by. “What has happened to the road worker?” he asked.
“He stayed at home today,” Hannay replied. “He's sick.”
At about midday, a large car came down the hill and stopped near Hannay. Three men got out of the car. Hannay's heart beat fast. He knew his enemies were coming…
34.Why was the road worker feeling ill? (　　)
A.He had a cold. B.He hadn't eaten all day.
C.He had been working all day. D.He drank too much at his daughter's wedding.
35.Who did NOT come by while Hannay was working on the road? (　　)

C.Hannay's enemies. D.A village boy.

B.The grassy hills were a perfect hiding place for Hannay.

Do you think laughter can help you deal with pain? Scientists from Britain did two experiments (实验). The first was done in a lab. People wore special wrist bands (腕带). Some of them were asked to watch comedies while others watched serious programs. Then the scientists tightened (勒紧) the wrist bands to see how much pain the people could feel.
The other test was done at an art festival. Some people watched a comedy show and others watched a drama (戏剧). At the same time, they had to put their backs against the wall and keep their legs bent (弯曲的) just like sitting on a chair. They did this before and after the show.
Scientists found that just 15 minutes of laughter improves people's ability to stand pain by 10%. However, the serious programs and the drama didn't make a difference to pain at all.
The study found that the magic power of laughter comes from endorphins (内啡肽). These are chemicals (化学物质). They are produced by the human body. They make you feel less pain and can make people feel happier. Exercise can produce endorphins. Your muscles (肌肉) move in and out when you are laughing. Scientists believe that this makes your muscles tiring, so we start to produce endorphins.
Scientists also found that the only real and relaxing laughter works not just polite laughter.
Next time you have a headache, get together with a group of friends, watch a funny movie and laugh. You will soon feel a lot better because laughter is the best medicine.

D.Muscles can improve people's ability to laugh

Millions of Chinese have been playing a mobile game called Travel Frog recently. You play as the “mother” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.
The game's popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness for a short time.
Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to The Guardian, about 40 percent of American adults say they're lonely. And in the UK, about one in five people in the country are “always or often lonely”, The Telegraph reported.
This might be why the UK government declared(宣布) the country's very first “Minister of Loneliness”(孤独大臣) in January. The minister's job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The minister's office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.
This loneliness problem may be partly because of social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies(自拍) without us, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel inferior(较差的) and lonely.
But we should remember that no one is destined(注定) to be lonely. As the UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent(陆地), a part of the main”. 
Tips to get rid of loneliness:
•Sing your favorite songs.
•Connect with a friend.
•Do something creative, such as drawing a picture.
•Imagine some place you'd like to visit, like a fun gathering or a sporting event.
42.What do players do while playing Travel Frog? (　　)
A.Build houses for their frogs.
B.Prepare food and tools for their frogs' trips.
C.Choose places for their frogs to travel.
D.Write postcards to their frogs.
43.According to the story, why is the game so popular? (　　)
A.Because it is well-designed.
B.Because it can be played on mobile phones.
C.Because people often feel lonely.
D.Because people have more spare time these days.
44.What does the underlined sentence mean? (　　)
A.Everyone is connected with others.
B.We should not compare ourselves to others.
C.It's not fun to feel lonely.
D.No one should live alone.
45.What is the best title for the passage? (　　)
A.Travel Frog Enjoys Traveling
B.Tips to Get Rid of Loneliness
C.Loneliness Is Becoming a Bigger Problem
D.Minister of Loneliness
