Ⅲ.阅读理解七夕节快乐英文
A
There is an English saying, “Laughter is the best medicine”. Until recently, few people took the saying riously. 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 people's health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exerci. It increas blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing； it also works veral groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercis the body it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effects 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. The reason why laughter reduces pain em
s to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemical in the brain which diminishes both stress and pain.
As a result of the discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they help 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 tho caud by laughter.
