Unit 17 Laughter,【文章导语】 Laughter can make people happy.It is also said that laughing can make people healthy.Is it true? There is an English saying:“Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now,however,doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body.They have found that laughter really can improve peoples health. Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.When people watched funny films,doctors checked their heart rate,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercises.It increases blood pressure,the heart beating and breathing;it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach,and even the feet.If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial.,Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes.The group that tolerated the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny programme.1The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain. 2As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh.They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.,译文 有一句英语谚语说:“笑是最好的药物。”直到现在,很少有人把这句话当回事。然而,最近医生已经开始研究笑以及它对人体带来的影响。他们发现笑真的能改善人的健康。 已经有实验来验证笑对人体的影响。当人们观看滑稽的电影时,医生测量他们的心率,血压,呼吸和肌肉。结果发现笑具有和运动相似的效果。它能改善血压,心跳和呼吸;而且它还能锻炼好几组面部肌肉,胃部甚至是脚部的肌肉。如果笑能让身体得到锻炼,它一定会是有益的。,其他的测试也表明笑似乎能减少疼痛对身体的影响。在一个实验中,医生让几组学生听不同的电台节目并造成痛感。忍受疼痛时间最长的小组听的是幽默节目。笑声能减轻疼痛的原因似乎是它能帮助大脑产生一种既能减少压力又能减少疼痛的化学物质。 基于这些发现,现在美国的一些医生开办大笑诊所,通过鼓励病人大笑来帮助改善他们的状况。他们发现即使病人不想大笑,让他们微笑就足以产生与大笑相似的效果。,典句欣赏 1.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain. 笑声能减轻疼痛的原因似乎是它能帮助大脑产生一种既能减少压力又能减少疼痛的化学物质。 2.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. 基于这些发现,现在美国的一些医生开办大笑诊所,通过鼓励病人大笑来帮助改善他们的状况。,理解诱思 1.Doctors have proved the following EXCEPT that .
