Do you want to live a happier, less stressful (有压力的) life? Try laughing for no reason at all. That’s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world – and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy. The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr Madan Kataria. “Young children laugh about 300 times a day. Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr Kataria. “Everyone’s naturally good at laughing – it’s the universal language. We want people to feel happy with their lives.” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 worldwide. Many doctors are also interested in the effects (效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5 – year study in the body. Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40%. So, what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out. I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest – I wasn’t interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking stupid. Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha,” while looking at each other. However, our bodies can’t tell the difference between fake laughter and real laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects. Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real – and some people just couldn’t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt. So if you’re under stress, then start laughing. You might be very pleased with the results! 【1】In which country was the first Laughter Club started? A.Britain. B.America. C.Australia. D.India. 【2】How did the writer feel at the beginning of the class? A.Surprised. B.Pleased. C.Nervous. D.Stressful. 【3】When did the people in the club begin to laugh for real? A.After a few minutes. B.After a few hours. C.After a few seconds. D.After a few days. 【4】Which of the following is true according to the passage? A.Fake laughter and real laughter are both good for health. B.40% of the people in Laughter Clubs are good friends. C.Adults laugh more often than children in a day. D.Laughing is the best way to prevent illness. |

Whenever I was cautious about trying something new, my mom would always tell me one thing: you don't know unless you try. I've been holding this belief in my entire life. It lets me explore various opportunities that I would have missed. Over the summer, I helped out at a preschool with the kids who needed some extra learning. At first I thought it would be super crazy with kids running around all over the place. I thought it would be a month of pure annoyance, but it ended up being pretty cool. They actually opened up to us, talked to us, and told us things they needed to get off their mind. They were so joyful to be around. I found myself happy that I was helping these kids, no longer afraid of the experience. Again in middle school, I experienced this same belief. There were various school dances and school holiday events. I was not very fond of going to these events, thinking that I would either be made fun of or just simply be bored. I went to my first school dance in the 7th grade. It was a school welcoming dance. At first I really did not want to go but my mom forced me to go anyway. I was not happy with the choice my mom made, but soon regretted my doubt. The dance was really fun, with music, food, and friends. My mom was right. I never thought the dance would be enjoyable. After these two events I gained more courage to try new things. I guess my mom was right. I'd never know if I never tried. 【1】By “you don't know unless you try”, the author's mom intended to ________. A.warn the author B.encourage the author C.delight the author D.blame the author 【2】Before helping out at a preschool, the author thought it would ________. A.be quite cool B.give her much pleasure C.give her a chance to learn D.be an unpleasant experience 【3】The author went to the school dance because ________. A.she liked dancing B.she was afraid of missing it C.she thought it would be enjoyable D.she was forced to go by her mother 【4】What can we learn from the story? A.Have a go. B.Better late than never. C.Every cloud has a silver lining. D.Where there is a will, there is a way. |

Happiness is for everyone. You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons，your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health；when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you；when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it，and when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice a bit of them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor，you can also feel you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转的) door. When it does, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you will be a happy and lucky person. 【1】Those who have big houses may often feel ________. A.happy B.lonely C.free D.excited 【2】When you fall down in a PE class，both your teacher and your classmates will ________. A.laugh at you B.play jokes on you C.quarrel with you D.help you up 【3】What will your friends say to you when you make great progress? ________ A.Oh，so do I. B.Congratulations. C.Good luck. D.It’s just soso. 【4】Which of the following is this passage about? ________ A.Bad luck. B.Good luck. C.Happiness. D.Life. |

We all know that a hot, milky drink and a warm bath are supposed to relax you before bed, but many of us still can’t slip into sleep. Here are some tips to help you go to sleep. ●Breathe in through your left nostril(鼻孔) 【1】. Sleep specialist Peter Smith says, “Lie on your left side, resting a finger on your right nostril to close it. Start slow, deep breathing in the left nostril.” Peter, author of Sleep Better With Natural Therapies, says this technique is particularly good when overhearting is preventing sleep. ●【2】 Relaxing all your muscles can prepare your body for sleep. Anxiety expert Charles Linden says: “Lying on your back, take a deep, slow breath in through your nose and, the same time, squeeze your toes tightly as if you are trying to curl them under your foot, then loosen them slowly. Breathe again, contract your leg muscles, then your thigh, belly, chest, arms, and so on until you hat all the way up your body. 【3】 ●Try to stay awake Challenge yourself to stay awake--- your mind will fight against it! “It’s called the sleep paradox(悖论).” Says psychotherapist Julie Hirst. She explains: “Keep your eyes wide open, repeat to yourself ‘I will not sleep’.【4】but instead view this as an instruction to sleep and eye muscles tire quickly as sleep turns up.” ●【5】 Use at least three senses imagining yourself in a situation where you feel content—a paradise(乐园), sailing on calm waters, walking in flower fields. A. Just imagine. B. Enjoy a paradise. C. Squeeze and relax D The brain doesn’t process negatives well E. You must repeat what you have done F. This yoga method is thought to reduce blood pressure and calm you G. When you have gone from head to toe, you should feel ready for sleep |

But my parents just want me to enjoy reading. The more I read, greater joy I get from the books. Reading books also bring me some skills to solve problems in life.
