It's n secret that laughter wrks wnders fr us. And much research has been carried ut int the gd that laughter can d fr ur general health and well-being. It has been fund t release endrphins (释放安多芬), ur bdies’natural“feel-gd"chemicals, int ur bld. But as we grw lder, we are mre likely t find fewer things funny. A child will laugh n average 300 times a day. By the time we reach adulthd, this number is arund 20. But what's behind this? One thery(理论) suggests that it's nt a prblem f us lsing ur sense f humr but rather, as we grw lder, we're scially cnditined t take things a bit mre seriusly.
Laughter is very much smething we d with thers. Studies have shwn that we are 30 times mre likely t find smething funny when we are with thers than when we are by urselves. But t laugh with thers, we d need t feel a cnnectin t them. We need t feel cmfrtable in their cmpany. That's why it can be difficult t laugh in the presence f strangers. Laughter is als very cntagius and ne persn's laugh can spread quickly thrughut a grup f peple. But ften what makes us jin in is the fear f standing ut and being different. We laugh, even if we dn' t really get the jke, especially in grups cntrlled by a pwerful persn. When the head teacher tells a jke, fr example, yu laugh, even thugh later yu might wnder if the jke was really that funny at all.
There are many different reasns why we laugh. Here are three widely accepted theries:
The Incngruity Thery: It's ften the unexpected that makes us laugh. When things that we are familiar with suddenly take a turn int the unknwn, ur expectatins are challenged and that ften results in laughter.
The Superirity Thery: We ften find the mistakes and misfrtunes f thers funny. This wuld explain the ppularity f nline vides shwing pranks (恶作剧).
The Relief Thery:Laugh ffers light relief. It explains why there are s many jkes abut the darker things in life. By being able t laugh at them, we are able t face them mre easily.
27. Accrding t the thery in Paragraph 1 why d we laugh less as we grw lder?
A. There are fewer funny things.
B. We take things mre seriusly.
C. Our bdy releases less endrphins.
D. We gradually lse ur sense f humr.
28. What can we learn frm Paragraph 2?
A. Mre funny things happen when we are with thers.
B. It's difficult t build up cnnectins with strangers.
C. We laugh smetimes because f scial needs.
D. Pwerful peple are mre likely t be funny.
29. What is the passage mainly abut?
A. The science f laughter
B. the pwer f laughter.
C. The sign f laughter.
D. The art f laughter
【答案】27. B 28. C 29. A
【解析】

Upcycling is the prcess f changing ld materials int smething useful and ften beautiful.
S, is it the same as recycling? N. Recycling takes materials-paper r glass-and breaks them dwn s their base materials can be remade int a new prduct. When yu upcycle an item(物品), yu are nt breaking dwn the material,

Upcycling isn’t a new idea. Sme f the best examples f mdern-day upcycling cme frm the 1930s t 1940s when families didn’t have enugh materials.

Upcycling is green. The plain and simple fact f the matter is that upcycling is much better fr the planet than thrwing things away. When yu upcycle, that's ne item less that ends upn the waste muntain. Upcycling is als cnsiderably mre envirnmentally friendly than recycling, which needs energy r water t break dwn materials. Upcycling just needs yur wn creativity and effrt.
Grace Rbinsn, frm the UK, takes used tea bags and turns them int dresses, shes and even hats. Every day she drinks sme tea, and then dries ut the tea bags with the tea still in them. When they are dry, she takes the tea ut and sews the bags tgether t make clthes. This can take a lng time- maybe mnths fr a single dress -s Grace gets friends t help her by drinking tea t and passing their tea bags n t her.
There are tw ways t supprt the upcycling mvement. Srt(分类)thrugh yur wardrbe r recycling bin and create items yurself, r buy ready-made items frm upcycled materials. Bth ways benefit the envirnment and in return, yu get smething that’s bth attractive and practical.
