Try laughing for no reason at all. That39。s how thousands of people start their day at Laughter (笑聲) 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 is naturally good at laughingit39。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 l,300 in the world. Many doctors are also interested in the effects (效果) of laughter on our health. According to a 5year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress 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 wasn39。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 can39。t tell the difference between real laughter and unreal laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects. Surprisingly, it worked! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn39。t stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxedand fortable I felt.

It allowed them to get in and out of their workplaces and log into(登錄) their puters without keys, Besides, they could also use the new technology to pay for the food in the cafe. But some of the workers thought it was a risky idea to have a microchip put under their skin. They considered that the microchip might cause health problems one day. Anyway, this new technology is fun. With the rapid development of technology, we seem to be on our way to being part human, part machine, don39。t we?(1)What does the underli
