Anger is a normal emotion that we can often feel. Doctors say that anger can damage our feelings，unless we can learn how to deal with it. Some people express anger openly in a calm and reasonable way，some yell with anger. But other people keep their anger inside and they will not express their anger. This is called controlling anger. Doctors warn that angry feelings can lead to heart disease，stomach problems，headaches and nervous diseases.
Doctors thought it was more dangerous not to express a person’s anger. They said that when a person is angry，it can speed the heart rate，raise blood pressure and cause many medical problems. Doctors thought that when people were angry，they could prevent these medical problems by letting the anger out by expressing it freely. But recently some doctors didn’t agree on this. They said that people who express anger repeatedly would harm themselves. They said these two can cause many medical problems.
They believe that those who express their anger repeatedly may be more likely to develop heart disease and nervous diseases，and they believe that those who keep their anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure. Doctors say it is very important for people to learn how to deal with their anger. First of all you have to admit that you are angry and know the cause of the anger. Then you’d better calm down and not make yourself angry. When you have cooled down you may express yourself calmly. Doctors say
the best way to do with anger is to tell jokes or find humour in such a case. Laughter always brings happiness and good health.

Happiness is contagious, researchers reported on Thursday.
People with the most social connections — spouses, friends, neighbors and relatives — were also the happiest, the data showed. “Each additional happy person makes you happier，” Christakis said.
“Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an American patch quilt.”
Each person sits on a different colored patch. “Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you，” Christakis said.
“It is not just happy people connecting with happy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.”
And happiness is more contagious than unhappiness, they discovered.
“If a social contact is happy, it increases the likelihood that you are happy by 15 percent，” Fowler said. “A friend of a friend, or the friend of a spouse or a sibling (兄弟姐妹), if they are happy, increases your chances by 10 percent，” he added.
A happy third degree friend — the friend of a friend of a friend — increases a person’s chances of being happy by 6 percent.
“But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you’ll be unhappy by 7 percent，” Fowler said.
The finding is interesting and it is useful, too, Fowler said.
“Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality (死亡率), pain reduction, and improved cardiac (心脏的) function. So better understanding of how happiness spreads can help us learn how to promote a healthier society，” he said.
The study also fits in with other data suggested in 1984 that having $ 5,000 extra increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2 percent.
“A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000，” Christakis said.
4.According to the research, your happiness ________.
A. has nothing to do with your workmates or schoolmates
B. has something to do with anyone who has a close relationship with you
C. depends on those who are in favour of you or are against you
D. has little to do with what social connections you have
5.The underlined word “contagious” in the first paragraph means ________.
A. infectious B. beautiful C. effective D. prior
6.It can be inferred that________.
A. happiness spreads as fast and widely as unhappiness
B. unhappiness spreads faster and more widely than happiness
C. happiness spreads faster and more widely than unhappiness
D. the spread of unhappiness has not been studied by researchers
7.Which of the following will increase your chances of becoming happier most?
A. Being in a party with a happy atmosphere.
B. A happy experience of your brother or your parents.
C. A happy trip to a foreign country of your friends.
D. Happiness of your friend’ s friend.
8.What does Christakis mean by saying “A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000” ?
A. A happy friend can help you bring in a wealth of $ 20,000.
B. A happy friend is a wealth which is worth about $ 20,000.
C. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 2%.
D. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 8 %.

Do you know that according to research，children laugh about 400 times a day while adults only laugh about 15 times a day? Somehow we lose the ability to laugh as we get older. Why does this happen and could it be that putting more humor and laughter into our day could improve our health?
Experts have carried out research on the health benefits of laughter. They found that it produces a reaction in the immune (免疫) system which encourages beneficial cell growth and controls damaging cell growth. They found that it also causes a reduction in stress hormones (荷尔蒙).
It is reported that hearty(尽情的)laughter can burn calories equal to several minutes on the rowing machine or an exercise bike. Another study showed that laughing encourages brain activity which improves learning. Also it creates a feeling of happiness.
Besides the health benefits of laughter，it is great in social situations to create a sense of belonging and fun among people who may or may not know each other very well. We may use laughter as a way of creating a closer relationship or taking the stress out of a nervous situation.
Perhaps surprisingly，other research has shown that all of the beneficial effects are present even when you force yourself to laugh when you are feeling terrible. So it is worth keeping humor and laughter however bad you feel. How can you become more positive and in the mood for fun if you are feeling upset?
Research shows that mind and body play a game with each other therefore your body adopts postures (姿势) and expressions to match your emotion. So change your body postures and your facial expressions and your feelings will change too. Learn to laugh at yourself and spend some time with people that make you laugh. You can take a 5～10 minutes’ humor break each day and take part in some ridiculous activities.
Laughter is very good for us. Maintaining our sense of humor and being able to laugh at the challenges that we face daily will help us to be happier. A positive attitude will not only help us to feel better，keep
