You want to live a happier life?Try laughing
for no reason.That's how many people start their
day at Laughter Yoga(瑜伽)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 Yoga 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 is naturally good at
laughing.We want people to feel happy with their
lives..'”
A study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California shows that laughter reduces
stress(减缓压力)and is very good for the heart,Laughter Yoga is used in many hospitals for
the illness treatment(愱病治疗)and it is also practiced in schools,factories and old people's
homes.
So what is Laughter Yoga?I went to my nearest Laughter Yoga Club to find out.I was
quite nervous about it.I didn't like the idea of laughing with others.First,our laughter
teacher told us to clap our hands and say,"Ho hoho,ha ha ha."He said our bodies can't tell
the difference between fake laughter and real laughter,so they both work.After ten minutes
everybody in the room was laughing for real!We did different kinds of laughter exercises and
finally I was surprised by how relaxed I felt.
So if you're sad(about something,just start laughing.As Dr.Kataria says,
"When you laugh,you change,and when you change,the world around you changes."

In Chinese,shi means(意思是)“food”一47
A long time ago,everyone in China ate with their hands.At that time,people often used
their forefingers to taste food,such as soup.They'd quickly dip (their forefingers into
the soup.48 That's why the forefinger became known as the "food finger".
49 Perhaps because it is more flexible and easier to use than other
fingers.
There is a Chinese idiom (shizhi dadong.It means that one's forefinger is
jumping'”.Astory says that during the Spring and Autumn Period(春秋时期),there lived a
man named Gongzi Song.He liked eating very much.50 Now we use this idiom to
show how excited we get when we see tasty food coming our way.
A.so shizhi means“food finger(手指)'.
B.
Why did everyone eat with their hands at that time?.
C.But why did people choose the forefinger to do this?
D.
Then,they'd put the finger into their mouth and taste it.
E.Every time his forefinger was"jumping",he would eat a delicious dish next.

Do people have great breakfasts?Many scientists think breakfast is 61(much)
important one of the three meals.We did a survey about it on the website().And 14,594
people answered 62 (we)questions.The survey had simple questions,such

"How often do you eat breakfast?","Do you eat breakfast 64(quick)?"and "What
do you have for breakfast?"It had difficult questions,too,like"Do you think breakfast is
65 important meal for you?Why?and "How do you feel without having breakfast?"
From the 66 (result)of the survey,we knew that many office workers didn't
have breakfast,67 they knew it was important.Only 34%of them took time to eat the
68 (one)meal of the day.And many mothers said that they wanted their children 69
(have)a good breakfast,but they were too busy getting ready for school to have breakfast.
The survey also showed that about 77%of the young kids70(eat)breakfast every day,
