(Text 1)
W：Tim, everyone in this picture is laughing.What was so funny
M：My father said something very funny and we all burst into laughter. ①My cousin Dave took the picture just at that moment. My father really has a sense of humour.
W：②My father is always really serious — he never says anything funny — and my mother doesn't like talking much.But my sister Mary is funny.She often makes me laugh.
M：Mary must be very popular at school.
W：Oh, she is.
(Text 2)
M：What makes you laugh, Alice
W：There are so many things. I love funny stories and crosstalk shows, and I also like comedies. My favourite kind of comedy is when someone pretends to be someone else.
M：Yes, I like that, too. But why do these things make us laugh
W：Well, I think it is because of the humorous plots and funny acts. When people imitate someone else, we laugh at the accents they are able to imitate, the way they imitate facial expressions and the manner of the people.
M：Do you know why it is good for us to laugh
W：Yes. Research shows that laughing has significant benefits; it relieves stress and anxiety, relaxes the whole body and gives one a sense of well-being.
M：That's true.
W：You know, laughing also encourages the brain to produce natural feel-good chemicals. So, it helps to make relationships stronger and enhance teamwork.
(Text 3)
W：Hello, Mike. How was the party
M：It was great! But I really embarrassed myself.
W：Really What did you do
M：At the end of the party, I went to the host and said — in front of everybody — “Thanks for the wonderful party, Richard.” Everybody else got really quiet. After a while, somebody whispered in my ear, “His name is Cliff, not Richard.” I felt so embarrassed. I couldn't stop blushing.
W：How did you handle the situation
M：I made a joke about myself and that helped solve all the embarrassments.
W：How clever! Tell me more about it.
M：Well, I just started laughing and said, “Oh dear, one of these days I'm going to forget my own name！”Everybody laughed, even Richard — I mean Cliff.
W：You're so smart! Humour is really a great way to deal with an awkward situation.

主題活動笑對健康的影響
There is an English saying,“Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying very seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to study laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found the fact that laughter can really improve people's health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has some effects similar to those of physical exercise.It decreases blood pressure, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also exercises several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet.If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce pain in the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes. The group which tolerated the pain for the longest time was the one that listened to a funny programme.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins (內啡肽) in the brain, which are natural chemicals that diminish both stress and pain.
There are also some facts suggesting that laughter helps the body's immune system, which fights infection. In an experiment, one group of students watched a funny video while another group of students served as the control group — in other words, a group with which to compare the first group. Doctors checked the blood of the students in both groups and found that those watching the video had an increase in the activity of their white blood cells, which fight infection.
As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists in the United States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patients' condition by encouraging them to laugh.They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.
Questions：
1.The underlined word “diminish” is similar to .
A.start B.stop
C.reduce D.increase
√
2.Doctors hold laughter clinics .
A.to give better conditions to their patients
B.to improve patients' health
C.to make patients smile all the time
D.to prove smile and laughter have the same effect
√
3.What do we know about a forced smile
It has the same effects as laughter.
4.What's the main idea of this passage
Tests show that laughter has beneficial effects on the human body.

閱讀下面材料,根據其內容和所給段落開頭語續寫兩段,使之構成一篇完整的短文。
On a weekend, a woman won a big bag of coins at a game machine. She took a break for dinner with her husband in the hotel dining room. But first she wanted to put the coins in her room.
“I'll be right back and we'll go to eat,” she told her husband. Then she carried the bag to the lift. As she was about to walk into the lift she noticed two men already aboard.
Both were huge, very huge figures. The woman was scared. Her first thought was: “These two are going to rob me.” Her next thought was: “Don't be afraid. They look like nice gentlemen.”
But fear seized her. She stood and stared at the two men. She felt anxious and ashamed. She hoped they didn't read her mind. Surely they knew her hesitation about joining them in the lift. It was all too obvious. Her face was red. She couldn't just stand there, so with an effort of will she picked up one foot and stepped forward and followed with the other foot and was on the lift. Avoiding eye contact, she turned around and faced the lift doors as they closed.
A second passed, and then another second, and then another. Her fear increased! The lift didn't move. Panic consumed her. “Oh dear,” she thought, “I'm about to be robbed！”
Her heart sank and sweat poured. Then one of the men said, “Hit the floor.” Instinct (本能) told her: Do what they tell you. The bag of coins flew upwards as she threw out her arms and collapsed on the lift carpet. A shower of coins rained down on her. “Take my money and spare me,” she prayed. More seconds passed.
She heard one of the men say politely, “Madam, if you'll just tell us what floor you're going to, we'll push the button. ” The one who said it had a little trouble getting the words out.He couldn't help laughing.
注意：1.續寫詞數應為150左右；

參考范文：
She lifted her head and looked up at the two men. They reached down to help her up. “When I told my friend here to hit the floor,” said the less taller one, “I meant that he should hit the elevator button for our floor. I didn't mean for you to hit the floor, Ma'am.” He spoke pleasantly. He bit his lip. So ashamed did the woman feel that she couldn't utter a single word.
After what seemed a century, the woman calmed herself down and stuttered in a trembling voice, “Please hit the 10th floor.” One of the men pushed the button as the woman had told. Then, he knelt down, which obviously, meant he intended to help her gather up the scattered coins. At the sight of this unexpected scene, the woman only wished the earth could swallow her!
Then, the lift arrived at her floor. The two men insisted on walking her to her room. She seemed a little unsteady on her feet, and they were afraid she might not make it down the corridor. At her door they bid her a good evening. As she slipped into her room, she could hear them roaring with laughter as they walked back to the elevator. She pulled herself together and went downstairs for dinner with her husband. Casting back what a spectacle she had made of herself she burst into laughter, “It must be the most embarrassing and funny experience I have owned.”Section Ⅶ　聚焦單元主題活動·發展語言交際技能
