Ha!The Sdence of When We Laugh and Why
It's certainly possible to over-analyze a joke._______(46)Considering the abundant research on the topic,maybe not.
Scott Weems,a neuroscientist,takes readers on a wide-ranging tour that explains what humor is and why readers should care.______(47)Humor improves interpersonal relationships,and studies show that simply watching a funny movie can lower stress,improve immune system response and even help viewers better solve problems.
The complexity of the human brain makes humor possible,Weems argues,and it also helps explain how some people can find a joke hilarious while others deem it grossly offensive.
Humor takes many forms-as many as 44 by one researcher's count-but shares certain traits and themes.From puns and riddles to slapstick（打闹剧）,humor is inherently subversive , Weems says , often treating serious subjects with frivolity（轻浮）or even rudeness.______(48) Ha ! Isn ' t a self-help guide to being funny , though a careful reader can find useful nuggets（块金） throughout?______( 49 ) Surprise helps , too , whether it ' s the incongruity（不协调）of an elephant hiding in a cherry tree or the absolute improbability of Raquel Welch and the pope ending up in the same lifeboat.
The final chapter divulges（透露）Weems's semi-successful attempt at stand-up comedy.He got a few laughs,he says,but not where he expected them. ______(50)The joke that got Weems the most laughs,and judged by one website's readers as the best in the world,is a story that he had practiced many dozens,maybe hundreds,of times.
