Visiting hospitals and other health care facilities, we clown doctors work together with medical professionals. On a typical day, we spend our time cheering up patients, their families, and more often than not, the hospital staff, too! We do this by doing magic tricks, singing songs, telling stories and, of course, telling silly jokes. Some children, though, don’t feel like laughing, especially if they’re in pain. We have to be very sensitive and work closely with the doctors and nurses, who keep us updated on each patient. update sb. on sth. 向某人提供关于某事的最新信息 And my magic medicine does indeed seem to do the trick. While the doctor concentrates on examining Lara’s ankle, I get her attention by doing a magic trick. Although she is clearly still in some pain, her scared and anxious look has been replaced—first by a small smile, and then by loud laughter as I “magically” produce her sock from out of my pocket. Seeing their daughter so much happier has in turn made Lara’s parents more relaxed. adv. 确实；实际上 examination n. 医学检查; 检查, 审查; 考试 While there might be more hospital visits ahead for Lara and others, I hope that clown doctors help make it a friendlier place to visit. adv. 在前面 IF YOU THINK YOUR LIFE IS too boring to be funny, joke's on you: humor is all around us. Cultivating more humor in your everyday life is “one of the fastest and most powerful ways to increase overall health and well-being”，says Steven MSultanoff, a clinical psychologist and professor at Pepper-dine University who studies how people can benefit from the healing powers of humor.The experience of humor and distressing emotions can't occupy the same psychological space,”he says. $$
