Unit 2 The Olympic Games Ⅰ.阅读理解(2017·吉林省部分学校高三模拟)Before I studied psychologylaugh 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 stand-up comedy show in Egypt，and when the man started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets，everyone laughed their hearts out.The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost all of them felt anger toward pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly.The joke wasnt only funny；it also made the audience feel that they were right about being angry at those pedestrians.That ister 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. 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 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. 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇议论文。作者学习心理学后发现除了笑话本身还有很多心理因素会促使人们发笑。1．What did the author find out after studying psychology?
