【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 ng 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.

However, it is not true. Communication is a problem for parents and children of all ages. If it39。s hard for you to municate with your parents, don39。t worry about it. Here is some advice for you to bridge the generation gap（消除代溝）. Don39。t argue with your parents. Don39。t get to your parents when you are angry. Your parents probably won39。t consider your ideas if you are shouting at them. And you can39。t express yourself well if you are angry. Go to someplace to calm down. Make sure you understand why you are unhappy. Then think about what you want to say to your parents. If you don39。t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter. Try to reach a promise（和解）.Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other. Michael39。s mother didn39。t agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a promise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days. Of course, your parents might refuse to promise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect to them. Showing respect will keep your relationship strong. Talk about your values. The values of your parents are probably different from those of your own. Tell your parents what you care about and why. Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life. A good relationship with your parents can make you a better and happier person.
