A Deaf Persons Joke
Something was wrong with Jacks ears after he was much better from a serious illness. Several months later he went to a doctor. The doctor told him that he was deaf of both ears. Jack was sad. He was afraid to lose his work. So he did not like people to know this.
One evening he asked some friends to dinner. While they were sitting at the table, one of his friends told an interesting joke. Everyone laughed and Jack laughed louder than anyone else. He said, “That was a very interesting joke, but I know a more interesting one. Would you like to hear it?” All his friends said OK to him, so Jack began to tell his joke. All his friends were listening to him with smiles. When the joke ended, everyone laughed louder than before and Jack laughed happily, too. He was very glad because he thought that his must be more interesting than his friends. But he didn know that he had made a fool of himself（出丑；闹笑话） because his joke was the same as the first one.

答案：
(答案→)B
解析：本文介绍了杰克在一次大病后失聪了，但他不想让人知道，因为怕失去工作。有一次朋友们在一起吃饭，一个朋友讲了个笑话，杰克比大家笑的声音更大，因为他不想让别人知道他耳朵不好。于是他也讲了个笑话，别人笑得更厉害了，杰克很高兴，以为大家都喜欢他的笑话，而实际上他讲的是刚才朋友讲过的那个笑话。
【小题1】细节理解题。根据短文第一段描述，Something was wrong with Jacks ears after he was much better from a serious illness.The doctor told him that he was deaf of both ears.可知杰克的耳朵是在很严重的一次疾病后失聪的，故选B。
