Read the passage and choose the correct answers
There is an old saying in English: “Laughter is the best medicine” Until recently, few
people took the saying very seriously Now, however, doctors have begun to investigate
laughter and the effects it has on the human body They have found evidence that
laughter really can improve people’s health
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body People watch
funny films, while doctors checked their heart rate, blood pressure, breathing and
muscles, the heart rate and the rate of breathing; it also works several groups of
muscles in face, the stomach, and even the feet If laughter exercises the body, it must
be beneficial
Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be capable of reducing the effect
of pain on the body In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who
listened to different radio program The group, which tolerated the pain for the longest
time, was the group that listened to a funny program The reason why laughter can
reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce endorphins in the brain There are
natural chemicals which decreased both stress and pain
There is also some evidence to suggest that laughter helps the body’s immune
system, that is, the system which fights infection In an experiment, one group of
students watched a funny video while another group served as the control group – in
other words, a group with which to compare the first group Doctors checked the blood
of the students in both groups and found that the people in the group that watched the
video had an increase in the activity of their blood cells, that is, the cells which fight
infection
As a result of these discoveries, some doctors and psychiatrists in the United
Trang 11States now hold laughter clinics, in which they try to improve their patient’s condition by
encouraging them to laugh They have found that even if their patients do not really feel
like laughing, making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those
caused by laughter
46 Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A There is evidence that laughing makes no difference to our well-being
B There is some evidence that laughing is bad for you

D There is some evidence that laughing can be good for you.
47 In one test, doctors found that laughter _
A help people to solve problems B made the heart beat more slowly
C made people breathe more slowly.D made the heart beat more quickly
48 In another test, doctors found that the group of students who felt painless than others were
A those who didn’t listen to a funny radio program
B those who listened to a boring radio program
C those who listened to a funny radio program.
D those who didn’t listen to any radio program
49.What do we call the body’s mechanism for fighting infection?
