Lincoln was much more about “l(fā)aughing with” than “l(fā)aughing at”. And when “l(fā)aughing at”， it was often himself he was teasing.In the famo

5、us LincolnDouglas debates, when Douglas accused Lincoln of being twofaced, Lincoln replied, referencing his plain looking, “Honestly, if I were twofaced, would I be showing you this_one？” And, in a way, Lincolns face itself tells us much about his sense of humor. You can comb through thousands of ph

6、otographs of politicians, soldiers, and the like from Lincolns time and not find a single smile. True, the long exposures(曝光)required for photographs of that time made smiling difficult. Yet Lincoln alone, as far as I can tell, overcame that difficulty.Interestingly, while having a sense of humor, o

7、r at least the appearance of one provided by comedy writers has become a necessary characteristic for an American President in our time, in the nineteenth century, too much humor was considered problem. And that was the case for Lincoln. A journalist covering the LincolnDouglas debates commented tha

9、what is funny to someone might be offensive to someone else Dthe concept of humor remains the same despite the passing of time 2The underlined words “this one” in Paragraph 4 refer to “_”ALincolns unattractive face BLincolns sense of humor Cthe debate they were having Dcruelty that went with funnine

11、he journalist covering the LincolnDouglas debates?AHis comment accurately reflected his time. BHe created a false picture of Lincoln. CHe was prejudiced and selfcentered. DHe was brave to point out Lincolns weakness. 答案與解析本文主要介紹了林肯的幽默。1C段落大意題。根據(jù)第二段可推知，幽默對一些人來說是幽默，而對另外一些人來說可能就是冒犯。2A詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第四段畫線部分所在句
