Man is the only【B1】that laughs. Why is this true？ What makes us respond as we do to pleasu

rable experiences？ What is the history of this "happy convulsion", as someone once【B2】it, and just what is its function？

We are not short【B3】theories to explain the mystery; For centuries, biologists, psychologists, and medical men have been seeking a definitive explanation of laughter. One writer put【B4】the theory that its function is to frighten others or to humiliate them. Another took the opposite【B5】that we laugh in order not to cry. A psychologist offered the explanation that laughter functions【B6】a remedy to painful experiences, and that it serves to protect a person【B7】what the psychologist called "the many minor pains to which man is exposed". In the seventeenth century a writer set【B8】the theory that we laugh when we compare ourselves with others and find ourselves superior to others; in effect, we laugh at the【B9】of others.

Almost every theory has been concerned【B10】either the structure or the function of laughter,【B11】relatively few have been devoted【B12】the question of its origin. I propose to offer a theory which, so far as I am concerned, has not previously been set forth.【B13】only those animals capable of speech are capable of laughter; and that therefore man, being the only animal that【B14】, is the only animal that can laugh.

Those of us who have【B15】chimpanzees closely feel quite confident that chimpanzees occasionally【B16】behavior. that looks very much like a primitive human laughter. This【B17】, however, has been observed only in a humanlike way; whether or not it is laughter is doubtful; but the【B18】fact that under any condition an ape is capable of【B19】behavior. is no more than passing interest—for【B20】only indicates that early man had the basic laughter.

In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many hous

The pattern of sharing in tasks and in【B3】makes for equality, and this【B4】turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by【B5】rather than by the "battle of sexes".

In the process goes too【B6】and man's role is regarded as less important—and that【B7】happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in【B8】. It is time to【B9】the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of "Momism"—but we don't want to exchange it【B10】a "neo-Popism". What we need, rather, is the【B11】that bringing【B12】children involves a partnership of equals. There axe signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men【B13】and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credits—nor all the blame. We have almost given up【B14】that a woman's place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man's place in the home and to insist that he【B15】have a place in it. Nor is that place【B16】to the healthy development of the child. The family is a cooperative【B17】for which it is difficult to lay【B18】rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own【B19】. Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy【B20】, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent(与......相关) not only to a healthy family.

——Thomas Macaulay

Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs. Nanette O'Neil gave an arithmetic 【B1】 to our class. When the papers were 【B2】 she discovered that twelve boys had made the same mistakes throughout the test.

There is really nothing new about 【B3】 an exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs. O'Neill 【B4】 even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to 【B5】 after class. I was one of the twelve. Mrs. O'Neill asked 【B6】 questions, and she didn't 【B7】 us either. She wrote on the blackboard the 【B8】 words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to 【B9】 these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.

I don't 【B10】 about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important single 【B11】 of my life. Thirty years after being introduced to Macaulay's words, they 【B12】 seem to me the best yard-stick(准绳), because they give us a 【B13】 to measure ourselves rather than others.

【B14】 of us are asked to make 【B15】 decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called 【B16】 daily to make a great many personal decisions. 【B17】 the Wallet, found in the street, be put into a pocket or turned over to a policeman？ Should the 【B18】 change received at the store be forgotten or 【B19】？ Nobody will know except 【B20】 But you have to live with yourself, and it is always better to live with someone you respect.

A．test

In this small town there was not a single man of importance who would dare to have a house keeper younger than sixty, for fear of what people might say 【B1】 .

But I made my choice 【B3】 After a few days' consideration over the matter and an early telephone call to her, I 【B4】 out there one day in my Fiat when she was at home, and I had a look at the cottage and a talk with her mother over a 【B5】 of teas, and after that I did not need anyone to say that she was 【B6】 . I knew if there was anything Cathey did not do 【B7】 , her mother would not 【B8】 long to correct her. After that there was only one question to raise.

"Have you a 【B9】 , Cathey？" said I.

"No, doctor, I have not," said she with a simple expression that did not 【B10】 me a bit. As a doctor, you soon 【B11】 innocent(无邪的)looks.

"Well, you'd better 【B12】 and get one." I said," 【B13】 I'm not going to take you." At this she laughed. After what seemed only a short time, she came and started working at my house. And you guess. 【B14】？ She proved to be very 【B15】 and efficient(高效率的). Of course she was so 【B16】 that people who came to my house used to 【B17】 a remark about us. But that didn't hurt me at all. They did not dare to 【B18】 a pretty girl themselves in case that other people would say something, But I knew as long as a girl had a man of 【B19】 to look after she would give me 【B20】 And, of course, I would be happy and at ease.
