　　Do You Have a Sense of Humor?

　　Humor and laughter are good for us. There is increasing evidence that they can heal us physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. In fact, every system of the body responds to laughter in some positive, healing way. So how can we get more laughter into our lives? ______ (46). Psychologist and author, Steve Wilson, has some answers.

　　Many people believe that we are born with a sense of humor. They think, “either you’ve got it, or you don’t.” Dr. Wilson points out that this is false. ______ (47)

　　The parts of the brain and central nervous system that control laughing and smiling are mature at birth. ______ (48). (After all, when a baby laughs, we don’t rush over and say, “That kid has a great sense of humor!”) A sense of humor is something that you can develop over a lifetime.

　　Sometimes people think that they don’t have a good sense of humor because they are not good joke tellers. Dr. Wilson reminds us that telling jokes is only one of many ways to express humor. ______ (49). Then we will make others laugh, too.

　　A person who has a true sense of humor is willing and able to see the funny side of everyday life. One of the best definitions of a sense of humor is “the ability to see the nonserious element in a situation.” Consider this sign from a store window. “Any faulty merchandise will be cheerfully replaced with merchandise of equal quality.” The store manager probably placed the sign in the window to impress customers with the store’s excellent service. ______ (50). As Dr. Wilson says, “a good sense of humor means that you don’t have to be funny, you just have to see what’s funny.”

　　A.He advises us to lose our inhibitions (抑制) and try to laugh at ourselves.

　　B.Is it possible to develop a sense of humor?

　　C.However, that does not mean that infants have a sense of humor.

　　D.What is true, however, is that we are born with the capacity to laugh and smile.

　　E.Everyone experiences this emotion.

　　F.He had a serious purpose, but if you have a sense of humor, you will probably find the sign funny!

　　解析：

　　46.B　文章以问题开头，第一个问题涉及laughter，第二个问题应涉及与之并列的humor，且与下文的answers相照应。故选B项。

　　47.D　与上文“false”相对，应是转折关系，表示真实的内容。故选D项。

　　48.C　下文的“after all”表示转折，说明上文亦应提及baby和sense of humor两个方面，故选C项。

　　49.A　上文提到Dr.Wilson的观点，此处应为进一步阐述其他方式的幽默表达。故选A项。

　　50.F　该句与下文Dr.Wilson的话相对应，表示“一个人可能本身并不幽默，但重要的是他能发现幽默”。故选F项。
