18、ure out.“Laughter above all else is a social thing,” says Baltimore neuroscientist(神经科学家), Robert Provine, who has studied laughter for many years. “All laughter groups laugh ha-ha-ha basically the same way. Whether you speak Mandarin, French or English, everyone will understand laughter. There is a

19、 pattern generator(发生器) in our brain that produces this sound.”Laughing is our first way of communicating. Babies laugh long before they speak. No one teaches them how to laugh. They just do.

Margaret Stuber, a professor at University of California, studied whether laugher helped patients. She found that distract

24、ion(分心) and mood improvement helped, but she could not find a benefit of laughter alone.“No study has shown that laughter produces a direct health benefit,” Provine said, mainly because its hard to separate laughter from just feeling good. But he thinks it doesnt really matter: “Isnt the fact that l
