14、 crime, started a war or broke up a relationship. Laughter is shared by the giver and the receiver. Laughter costs nothing and its non-taxable. Laughter is a trend-setter. If we can find ways to laugh the first thing in the morning, it may in fact set the trend for the rest of the day.Let me close b

15、y telling you the most important use of laughter I have ever discovered: The ability to laugh at ourselves.

19、laugh at ourselves if we always laugh at ourselves.BThe surprising experiment I am about to describe proves that air is all around you and that it proves down upon you. Air pressure is a wonderful force. When you swim underwater, you can feel water push down your body. The air all around you does th

20、e same. However, your body is so used to it that you do not notice this. The pressure is caused by a layer of air called the atmosphere. This layer surrounds the Earth, extending to about five kilometers above the Earths surface. The following experiment is an easy one that you can do at home. But m

21、ake sure that you are supervised (监督), because you will need to use matches (火柴). What you need A hard-boiled egg without the shell A bottle with a neck slightly smaller than the egg A piece of paper A match Method 1) Check that the paper will sit firmly on the neck of the bottle. 2) Tear the paper

22、into strips and put the strips into the bottle. 3) Light the paper by dropping a burning match into the bottle. 4) Quickly sit the egg on the neck of the bottle. ResultAstonishingly, the egg will be sucked into the bottle. Your friends will be amazed when you show them the experiment. But be careful

23、 when you handle matches. Why it happened As the paper burns, it needs oxygen and uses up the oxygen (air) in the bottle. The egg acts as a seal in the neck of the bottle, so no more air can get inside. This reduces the air pressure inside the bottle. The air pressure must equalize, so more air from

24、 outside must enter the bottle. The outside air presses against the egg and then the egg is pushed into the bottle! That proves that air is all around and that it is pressing down on it. 46. The purpose of the first paragraph is _. A. to tell us something about the air pressure and pave the way for

B. the earth is surrounded by a layer of air called the atmosphere. C. the pressure of air around us has

29、 a powerful force. D. the air pressure is not equalized around us. CThere are so many different plastic cards that adults have to carry aroundlibrary cards, savings cards for different banks, credit cards, just to name a few. So why not have one to replace them all?Scott Barnhill, an 1l-year-old fif

30、th-grade student in the US, has come up with an idea for a Security One Card.Sound smart? The US Patent(专利) Office thought so, and it approved a patent for his idea in April.Heres an example of how Barnhills idea would work.Lets say you have the three cards mentioned above.

31、all, you could have just one by having additional magnetic strips(磁条) added to it.The magnetic strips can be added to any plastic card, even a blank one.Companies could add their information to one of the strips. For example, you could ask a library to add a strip to your bankcard.Barnhill has a lot

32、 of hobbies, including designing websites. He got the idea at the age of 9 when he saw his father using a keycard to enter their hotel room.

I hope theyll giv

34、e me money every time someone puts a strip on the back of another card, or every time the idea is used, Barnhill said. Ill write the letters and see what they say. If they say no, Ill ask someone else, another credit card company.He is hoping to make money from his patent and has decided it would be

35、 better to collect royalties(专利使用费)if the idea takes off rather than sell his patent.The ATM person who invented that sold it totally, and if hed chosen royalties hed get like 2 cents for every transaction (交易) and hed be a billionaire now, Scott said.51.The advantage of “Security One Card” is that

40、ly one difficult kind- the humorous”.It isnt easy to tell a funny story. In fact, sometimes its nearly impossible to get people to laugh.

42、ing funny is coming. The more innocent your expression and tone are, the funnier it will be when you reach the funny point; itll be as if youd said something funny, but didnt know it until the audience started laughing.Take your time telling the story. Let the audience enjoy its details. Be careful

43、about rhythm and pacing, and use pauses for dramatic effect, and to keep the audience guessing.Use your voice. Not only do you need to make sure everyone hears it, you also need to vary your intonation. Be excited in places, then calm down a bit, and pause for a moment before you hit the punch line.
