Laughter and tears are part of living. But do you find enough time for laughter? I am not asking if you  21  lost of good times.   22  we should laugh during the happy times. But do you also laugh during the  23  times?

Eram Bombeck is known for her humorous books, but she wrote one that  24  a more serious topic:  25  in children. Erma talks with many children with cancer and learns  26  life lessons from them. She learns, for instance, that cancer survivors know how to  27  .

She   28  the experience of 15-year-old Jessica from Burlinton. Jessica’s leg was cut off at the knee because of cancer. She was learning to  29  a prosthesis（假肢）. Jessica tells about playing  30  . She kicked the ball  31  and it flew off in one  32  while her artificial leg flew into another. She fell on the  33  and laughed.

Jessica may not have laughed about her cancer, but she laughed about handling the  34  of it. And her laughter helped her a deal.

There is the story of 17-year-old Betsy. She   35  her way to the radiation room for her regular radiation therapy（化疗）. As   36  , she dropped her hospital gown and, wearing only her birthday suit,  37 onto the table and waited. The extra people in the room were not the medical students she had thought, but   38  painters giving an estimate on painting! Betsy laughed heartily about the incident. And like Jessica, her  39  to laugh helped her to deal with one of the most difficult thing a young person can endure-cancer.

Do you find plenty of  40  for laughter? You can…if you also find reasons to laugh during the especially difficult times.

Survivors know how to laugh. If you can laugh even when the going is rough, you’ll make it. And you’ll smile at the end.

How They Stay Young

76.________________

When Dr David Weeks，a clinical neuro-psychologist at the Royal Edinburgh Hospital in Scotland．wanted to look into the secrets of eternal（永久的） youth ，he advertised for subjects who looked younger than their age．An independent panel examined photographs of respondents，and selected 3,500 people who looked on average l2 to 14 years younger than their actual age to take part in the study．

77．________________

    These subjects were studied for eight years．The main aim of the study was to discover whether environment or heredity had more effect on the ageing process．The conclusion was that genetic programming is the main factor．But the study also showed that avoiding stress can slow down the ageing process．

78．________________

    Stress seems to have an immediate effect on appearance．A separate study of middle-aged women showed that women suffering form serious stress looked older in just a few months．Yet when the problem causing the stress was removed，they very quickly looked younger．

79．________________

    Here is a list of the factors that Dr．Weeks found that allowed his subjects to lead less stressful lives than others．First，they tend to have happy relationships with their partners．These relationships are based on trust and empathy，and provide security and comfort when dealing with stressful problems．Secondly，they tended to avoid sources of hostility instead of allowing them to make them angry．

80．________________

    Next, they seem to have a good sense of humor．They like to have fun，and are enthusiastically involved in a variety of hobbies．They also seemed less willing to conform to others’ ideas．They prefer to think for themselves．They tend to have a good attitude towards health and exercise as well．They avoid the sun，do not smoke, and eat a healthy diet．

    So these are the secrets of the “ super-young”：a loving relationship．Regular exercise．a variety of hobbies，a healthy diet and avoidance of stress．
