It isclaimed that humor not on
25、ly affects patients moods, but can actually help them recover faster. Several studies seem to support this. Patients in better spirits are known to have higherimmune cell counts. Some have even claimed to have healed themselves of serious illnesses byreading comics and watching comedies.Despite all
26、this, many researchers are not convinced. They point out the fact that manysufferings have been known to disappear naturally, with or without a daily dose of laughter. Theyalso say that while optimism in general does seem to be related to better health, it is hard to tellwhich comes first.Humor in t
27、imes of stress, however, clearly makes us feel better. On one level, it takes ourminds off our troubles and relaxes us.

The
30、y simply didnot find them funny.Of course, humor is largely an individual matter. Next time your friend does not get one ofyour jokes, there is no need to accuse him of being a lamebrain.

37、 return than any other deal available in thedeveloping world. Womens education may be unusual field for economists, but increasingwomens contribution to development is actually as much an economic as a social project. Andeconomics, with its emphasis on incentives(激 励 ), provides an explanation for w
38、hy so many girlslose the chance of an education.

An educated mother, on the other hand, has greater earning abilities outside the home andfaces an entire
40、ly different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and caninsist on the development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance.The education of her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, aswell as of boys
41、, will be educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into avirtuous circle(良 性 循 环 ).Few will not agree with the idea that educating women has great social benefits. But it hasenormous economic advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education onthe wages
42、of female workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 per cent for each additional year ofschooling. Such big returns are impressive by the standard of other available deal, but they are justthe beginning.
