Unit 3 Growing Up 第五课时 Section B Reading 1 I．阅读理解（每空不超过4个词） According to scientists, laughter is the best medicine. There are some positive influences of it. What happens when we laugh? Firstly, laughter makes our bodies produce chemicals（化学物质）,which makes us feel good. Secondly, laughing can keep us from heart problems. Thirdly, it can make our muscles（肌肉）more relaxed for as long as 45 minutes after a good laugh. Having a good sense of humor helps to keep our mind healthy, too. When you get a joke or watch a video and it makes you laugh or simply smile, you relax a bit. And the relaxation helps us deal with bad feelings like sadness or anger. What laughter does is to help us to think about our problems better, and then we can deal with them better. If you hear someone laughing, you're probably going to laugh along. The fact is, laughter brings people together.When you are with people you like and share funny things, you will laugh easily. And studies show that our closest relationships-with parents, brothers or sisters and partners-are improved greatly with shared laughter. So,all you have to do is to laugh more often!
