Unit 1　Laughter is good for you 圣地亚哥举办首届美国笑赛。这项比赛也是美国“幽默治疗及应用协会”的年度会议项目之一。它要求参赛者互相面对面开始大笑，由观众来决定谁笑得最有感染力。 The First American Laughing Championship in San Diego The first-ever American Laughing Championship is taking place in San Diego.The contest is the first national championship in the US，although Canadian filmmaker，Albert Nerenberg，has organised national laughing contests in Canada and Japan and a state championship in California back in 2010.The contest requires the chosen laughers to face off against each other as the audience determine who has the most attractive laugh.Daunte Reed is one of about twelve people competing in the contest.He is hoping to be a winner of the title of top laugher.“Ive been told I have an attractive laugh.It doesnt take much to make me laugh，”Reed said. The contest includes the belly laugh(捧腹大笑)，the crazy laugh and the diabolical(魔鬼般的)laugh.The last one is the most challenging，according to Nerenberg，who said the goal is to make the audience laugh with your laugh.“The solo(单人表演的)laughing requires a good voice.However，the other laugh styles require someone to get the audience laughing；a good diabolical laugh requires the laugher to infect(使感染)himself and start laughing naturally，”he explained. “The person who wins isnt always the best，but the top three people are always the best.These people bring more joy to the world.They tend to be happy types.Weve never had a sad person win so far，”he added. 1．take place发生；举行 2．attractive adj. 吸引人的 3．challenging adj. 挑战性的 4．naturally adv. 自然地，天生地 5．tend to do sth. 倾向/易于做某事 1．How many laughs does the contest include? 2．Who are the best among the winners? 【答案】　1.Three.2．The top three people.
