when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.
So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same
part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too,
does crying.
Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional (情感的) health, and crying
seems to study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.
Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us
become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable
us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don"t even know we" re very sad until we cry. We
learn about our emotions through Crying, and then we can deal with them.
Just as crying can be healthy, not crying - holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering - can be bad
for physical (身体的) health, Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high
blood pre
ssure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don"t fight it. It"s a natural -and
healthy-emotional response (反应).

there for camping. On the way out, I asked them to wait while I ran up to E1 Capitan, a 1 rock
of 3,300 feet straight up. I touched that giant rock and knew 2 I wanted to climb it. That has
been my life"s passion (钟爱) ever since--- 3 the rocks and mountains of Yosemite. I"ve long
made Yosemite my 4 .
About 15 years ago I started seeing a lot of 5 , like toilet paper, beer cans, and empty boxes,
around the area. It"s 6 me why visitors started respecting the place 7 and treated such a
beautiful home-like place this way.
I tried 8 trash(垃圾)myself, but the job was too big. I would 9 an hour or two on the
job, only to find the area trashed all over again weeks later. Finally, I got so 10 it that I decided
something had to change.
As a rock-climbing guide, I knew 11 about organizing any big event. But in 2004, together with
some climbers, I set a date for a 12 . On that day, more than 300 people 13 . Over three

Each year volunteers come for the cleanup from everywhere. In 2007 alone, 2,945 people picked up

| Barditch High School decided to an All-School Reunion. Over 450 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on ands to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the Park. Some eyes rolled and there were a few low groans(嘟囔声)when Ms.Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from and old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined. Then Ms. Yates started to speak: "I can"t tell you how pleased I am to be here. I haven"t seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven"t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth your children, in my imagination." Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued: "It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others would succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in you chosen path." "There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know I love you all from the bottom of my heart." There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. Tee clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar(呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame all because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I was tired and hungry after a long day of work. When I walked into the living-room, my 12-year-old son looked up at me and said, "I 1 you." I did not 2 what to say, and I just stood there, looking 3 at him. My first 4 was that he 5 need help with his homework. Then I asked, "What was that all 6 ?" "Nothing," he said, "My teacher said we should tell our parents we love them and 7 what they say." The next day I called his teacher to 8 more about what my son said and how the other parents had reacted( 反应 ). "Most of the fathers had the 9 response as you did," the teacher said, "When I first 10 that we try this, I asked the children 11 they thought their parents 12 say. Some of them thought their parents would have heart trouble." Then the teacher 13 , " I want my students to know that feeling love is an important part of 14 . I"m trying to tell them it"s too bad that we don"t express (表达) our feelings. A boy 15 tell his father or mother he loves him." The teacher understands that sometimes it is 16 for some of us to say something that is good for us to say. That evening when my son 17 to me, I took him in my arms and held on for an 18 moment, saying, "Hey, I love you, 19 ." I don"t know if saying that made 20 of us healthier, but it did feel pretty good. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
