Bend over, take a deep breath and drink some water!This is just one of hundreds of pieces of advice you might get if you have the hiccups(打嗝).Hiccups are so mysterious(神秘的).We really don’t know why they start and why they stop.
Everyone has a favorite cure for a case of the hiccups.Some people think that a good scare is necessary to get well.Others eat a little sugar.Still others drink a glass of water with a knife in it.
An American man named Jack O’Leary said that he had hiccupped 160 million times over a period of eight years.He tried 60,000 cures,but none of them worked.Finally he prayed(向…祈祷) to Saint Jude, the saint of Hopeless cases, and his hiccupping stopped immediately.
A British worker didn’t stop his hiccups until eight months later. People from all over the world wrote him letters with suggestions for getting well.He tried them all,but the hiccups continued.Finally,he drank a “secret” mixture(混合物) someone had sent him. By that evening his hiccups were gone.
Why did these cures work for these two men? No one really knows. But people who have studied many cases of hiccups have an idea. Hiccups usually go away if you believe in the cure.
