選修7Unit 2Robots.閱讀理解ABefore I studied psychology, I used to think that people would laugh when funny things occurred. While I was right about that, I discovered there are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually be more than one reason that makes him laugh and the more reasons there are, the more powerful the joke will be.I was attending a standup edy show in Egypt, and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their heads off. The main reason why those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The joke wasnt only funny, but it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got. The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.(第三段最后一句) In short, we dont laugh only when we hear something funny; we also laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage you from making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a persons emotions, he will certainly like it a lot.【文章大意】本文主要分析了人們笑的原因?!倦y句分析】For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.分析:本句是一個(gè)復(fù)合句。第一個(gè)if引導(dǎo)條件狀語(yǔ)從句;that引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,在從句中作主語(yǔ),修飾先行詞a joke;第二個(gè)if引導(dǎo)虛擬條件句。譯文:譬如,如果你妒忌你的一個(gè)朋友,有人講了一個(gè)有趣同時(shí)讓你朋友看起來傻乎乎的笑話,那么你有可能比你不妒忌他時(shí)笑得更大聲。1.
