All she knew was that he was very sick and they had no money. Only a very expensive operation (手术) could save him now and there was no one to lend them the money. When she heard her daddy say to her tearful mother， “Only a miracle (奇迹) can save him now，” the little girl went to her bedroom and pulled her money from its hiding place and counted it carefully. She ran to a drugstore（药店）with the money in her hand.“And what do you want?” asked the salesman.“Its for my little brother，” the girl answered. “Hes really， really sick and I want to buy a miracle.”“Pardon?” said the salesman.“My brother Andrew has something bad growing inside his head and my daddy says only a miracle can save him.

Now, however, doctors havebegun to study laughter and the effects (作用)it has on the human body. They have found evidence that laughter really canimprove peoples health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on thebody. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, bloodpressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effectsto physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rateof breathing. It also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomachand even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be helpful.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to make the effect ofpain on the body less. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups ofstudents who listened to different radio programs. The group which could bearthe pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program.The reason why laughter can make pain less seems to be that it helps to produceendorphins (内啡肽)in the brain. These are natural chemicals which make both stress and pain less.There isalso some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the bodys immunesystem that is the system which fights infection (感染).In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while anothergroup served as the control group in other words, a group with which tocompare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in bothgroups and found that the people in the group that watched the video had anincrease in the activity of their white blood cells the cells which fightinfection.As a result ofthese discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists (精神病专家)in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improvetheir patients condition by encouraging them to laugh. They have found thateven if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile isenough to produce good effects similar to those caused by laughter.（1）We learn from the first paragraph that laughter _. A . is good for ones healthB . has strong effects to do with some illnessesC . has been studied for a long timeD . has no effect on the body（2）Doctors have found that laughter _. A . keeps down blood pressureB . has similar effects to physical exerciseC . decreases the heart rateD . increases stress and pain（3）Which of the following statements is NOT true of laughter according to the passage?

It can cure（治愈）cancer.（4）Smiling can produce _.A . about the same effects as laughterB . more effects than laughterC . fewer effects on the human bodyD . no effects on the human body12. （8分）阅读理解Frogs are animals that can live not only in water but also on land.
