In either case, the sticker price of a new car would be less than $50. Why haven't you guys kept up？”The president of GM smiles and says，“Because the federal government won't let us build cars that crash four times a day.”Why is that funny (or not funny, as the case may be)? Human beings love to laugh, and the average adult laughs 17 times a day. Humans love to laugh so much that there are actually industries built around laughter. Jokes, sitcoms and comedies are all designed to get us laughing, because laughing feels good. For us it seems so natural, but the funny thing is that humans are one of the only species that laughs. Laughter is actually a complex response that involves many of the same skills used in solving problems.Laughter is a great thing—that's why we've all heard the saying，“Laughter is the best medicine.” There is strong evidence that laughter can actually improve health and help fight disease. In this article, we'll look at laughter—what it is, what happens in our brains when we laugh, what makes us laugh and how it can make us healthier and happier. You'll also learn that there's a tremendous amount that no one understands yet.【解题导语】本文是一篇文章的引言。

to be the first of its kind，found that children who were not facing the person pushing them were less likely to talk，laugh and interact with their parents.The findings were based on a study of 2,722 parents and babies and an experiment where 20 babies were wheeled in buggies for a mile，facing their parents for half the journey and facing away for the other half.Parents using facetoface buggies were twice as likely to talk to their children while the babies’ heart rates fell and they were twice as likely to fall asleep，an indication that they were feeling relaxed and safe.In addition，only one baby out of the 20 studied laughed while sitting in an awayfacing buggy.“Our data suggests that for many babies today，life in a buggy is emotionally impoverished and possibly stressful.Stressed babies grow into anxious adults，” said Dr Suzanne Zeedyk，Developmental Psychologist at Scotland’s Dundee University who carried out the research.The study，which was published by National Literacy Trust as part of its “Talk To Your Baby” campaign，found that 62 percent of all children observed travelled in awayfacing buggies.Zeedyk said it would impact negatively on babies’ development if they spent a long time in awayfacing buggies，which would undermine their ability to communicate with their parent at a time when their brain was developing rapidly.Laura Barbour of the Sutton Trust，a social mobility charity which funded the research，said buggy manufacturers should look closely at the findings.1．Using awayfacing buggies may________.A．benefit both the babies and their parentsB．affect babies’ language ability permanentlyC．help babies communicate with their parentsD．have positive effect on babies’ development2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Parents may talk twice with the babies in awayfacing buggies.B．The study suggests children feel relaxed and safe in buggies.C．The samples of the study were 20 babies wheeled in buggies.D．One of the 20 babies was twice as likely to fall asleep in buggies.3．The underlined word “impoverished” in Para graph 5 is closest in meaning to “________”．A．poor B．nervousC．rich D．energetic4．National Literacy Trust________.A．has been funding the research for a long timeB．is a social mobility charity funding the researchC．carried out the study of babies pushed in buggiesD．started the campaign named “Talk To Your Baby”5．Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A．Best for Kids to Face Parents in BuggyB．Best for Kids to Communicate with ParentsC．Stressed Babies Grow into Anxious AdultsD．Buggy Manufacturers Care about the FindingⅣ.短文填词A couple of months ago，I asked to go to Wuxi.With my parents’________(许可)，I went there1.________by bus and visited lots of beautiful

It can be used for patching up differences, apologizing, saying“no”，criticizing, and getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losing face. For some jobs, it is the only tool that can succeed. It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that a serious dialogue may start a riot. For example, many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerance than people in any other forum.Humor is often the best way to keep a small misunderstanding from escalating (升级) into a big deal. Recently a neighbor of mine had a quarrel with his wife as she drove him to the airport. Airborne, he felt miserable, and he knew she did, too. Two hours after she returned home, she received a long-distance phone call.“Person-to-person for Mrs. I. A. Pologize.”intoned the operator.“That's spelled ‘P’ as in ...” In a twinkling (眨眼间), the whole day changed from bad to lovely at both ends of the wire.An English hostess with a quick wit was giving a formal dinner for eight distinguished guests whom she hoped to enlist (赞助) in a major charity drive. Austerity was a fashion in England at the time, and she had asked her children to serve the meal. She knew that anything could happen ... and it did, just as her son, with the studied concentration of a tightrope walker, brought in a large roast turkey; he successfully elbowed the swinging dining-room door, but the back bird dropped onto the dining-room floor.The boy stood rooted, the guests staring at their plates. Moving only her head the hostess looked at her son，“No harm, Daniel”，she said，“just pick him up and take him back to the kitchen” ... she enunciated (发音) clearly so he would think about what she wa s saying ...“and bring in the other one.”A wink and a one-liner instantly changed the dinner from a red-faced embarrassment to a laughter.【解题导语】幽默能使我们有效地应对尴尬的局面。
