There are many things that make us laugh. Laughter always shows that we are happy. Now scientists are studying why we laugh and what benefits (益处) it brings to us. Humans start laughing as early as three months old, even before they can speak. Laughter is a simple way for us to show that we wish to make friends with others in a social (社会的) group. Those who laugh a lot are also more popular. Even in a normal talk, we laugh seven times every ten minutes. Most of the time our laughter is contagious (感染性的), mainly between friends. When we see one of our friends laugh, we may laugh too. According to some scientists, there are several benefits of laughter. It can make us feel good and relax our bodies. It also helps us improve our immune system (免疫系统). That’s why laughter therapy (疗法) is used by many doctors. But our ability (能力) to laugh is out of our control. When you start doing it, just go with the flow and others will join you. Laughter provides a way of building a relationship between people. It’s also healthy for the mind and the body. So make sure to take the time to enjoy a few laughs over dinner and drinks with friends. 48. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Laughing, B. Studying. C. A comedy. D. A funny joke. 49. Why do we laugh in a social group? A. Because we don’t know what to say. B. Because we hope to make others happy. C. Because we wish to show that we are popular. D. Because we want to develop a friendship with others. 50 What is the main idea of Paragraph 3? A. Ways of laughter. B. Benefits of laughter. C. Reasons for laughter. D. Different ideas about laughter. 51. What can we know from the passage? A. We can control our ability to laugh. B. Laughter is contagious mainly between neighbors. C.

Only in this way can we truly become helpful students for our society. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
