特別廣播英語第 293 課：Laugh for the Health of It 笑能治百病-2

On another, it releases powerful endorphins in the brain that act to alleviate pain. 從某個方面而言，笑能使我們遠(yuǎn)離煩惱，身心放松。

There are cases where the appreciation of a good joke is indeed directly related to a person's health. 就另一個方面來說，幽默的時(shí)候腦部會釋放能量強(qiáng)大的腦啡肽來減輕疼痛。

It can show, for example, whether a person has suffered damage to one particular area of the brain: the right frontal lobe. 有一些案例表明，能欣賞好笑的笑話，的確和健康情形有關(guān)。舉例來說，它能說明一個人腦部某個特定的部位──右腦額葉是否受到損傷。

Scientists confirmed this by having people read jokes and asking them to choose the funniest endings from a list. 科學(xué)家通過實(shí)驗(yàn)證實(shí)這一點(diǎn)。實(shí)驗(yàn)的方法是叫一些人閱讀笑話，然后請他們從一份目錄中挑出最好笑笑話的結(jié)尾。

Subjects with normal brains usually chose endings that were based on a relatively complex synthesis of ideas. 腦部情況正常的受測試者選出的結(jié)尾，往往是經(jīng)過相對復(fù)雜綜合思維之后才能得出的。

Subjects with specifically located brain damage, however, responded only to slapstick endings, which did not depend on a particular context. 腦子某個特別部位受到損傷的人，只對鬧劇式的笑話結(jié)尾有反應(yīng)，這種笑話并不需要依賴特定的上下文。

When pressed , the brain-damaged subjects saw the logic in the correct endings. They simply did not find them funny. 對腦部受損傷的測試者施加一定壓力之后，他們才會看出正確結(jié)尾的邏輯，但不覺得好笑。

Of course, humor is largely an individual matter. The next time your friend does not get one of your jokes, there is no need to accuse him of being a lamebrain. 當(dāng)然，笑話是否好笑是因人而異的。下次你的朋友聽不懂你講的笑話時(shí)，沒有必要笑人家笨。

However, you might suggest that he lighten up—for the health of it. 但是，你可以建議為了健康，讓他放輕松點(diǎn)兒。
