Developing a Funny Personality

Put yourself under the spotlight. Tell self-deprecating (自嘲的)jokes rather than make jokes at the expense of others. 1. Rodney Dangerfield made fun of both his sanity (理智)and his looks with this one: "I went to the psychiatrist (精神病医生),and he says 'You're crazy.' I tell him I want a second opinion. He says, ‘Okay,you're ugly too!'"

Know your audience. 2. Some people find that sensationalism causes them to laugh; others find that satire (讽刺) does the trick. Learn which is which, and deliver your jokes and anecdotes so that they apply to many different categories of humor and emotion at once.

Mislead the mind. Misleading the mind is what we referred to earlier as surprise. 3. Verbal jokes use this element to the greatest level possible, trying to misdirect your attention in the same that magic tricks do.

4. Good timing is really important, because if you give the brain too much time to work out a situation or joke, the funny moment will pass by. This is probably why jokes people have heard before don't work, as recognition dulls the humor because the brain is already well-prepared by experience. React quickly and strike while the humorous moment exists.

Be observant. Look for the humor in everyday situations, and see what others don't. 5.

A. Strike while the iron is hot.

B. Different things make different people laugh.

C. Surround yourself with people who are funny.

D. More people will be more willing to laugh, instead of being laughed at.

E. You can expand your reach a good deal by listening to other funny people.

F. Often, the unnoticed humor that is standing right in front of our eyes has the most effect.

G. This is when you create a difference between what someone expects to happen and what actually happens.

Many parents often say their teenage son looks like a grown man.He is taller than his father,and his voice has turned deep.But his behavior is another matter.He makes hurried decisions, tries to smoke and drink,drives cars too fast and always makes his parents annoyed.Why?

That's because his brain is developing more slowly than his body.Researchers at the National Institute of Mental Health and UCLA carried out a long?time study of normal brain development.They found that the frontal lobe (大脑额叶 ),the area responsible for understanding future influences,making wise decisions and controlling impulses(冲动),does not become mature (成熟的)until the early 20s.

Because of the immature brains,teenagers are easily influenced by the environment and unexpected behavior.So their death rates rise sharply.Research shows that rates of death by injury for people between the age of 15 and 19 are six times those seen in kids aged 10 to 14.The government reports that teens are four times more likely than older drivers to be involved in a car accident and three times more likely to die in one.

Teens may be attracted to drugs and alcohol.Rates of drug and alcohol use are high when compared with those of other age groups.Frances Jensen and David Urion,doctors at Children's Hospital Boston and Harvard Medical School,discovered that adult brain cells recovered (恢复 ) more quickly from alcohol influence than younger brain cells.Jensen said in Harvard Magazine: “For a teenager,what he drank on the weekend is still with him during that test on Thursday.”

Teens aren't making trouble on purpose.They long for freedom,but they are still young.They're still forming into the adults they'll eventually be.And,of course,they won't be at this age forever.Home education plays one of the most important roles in young people's growth,and the influence is most lasting.Finally,they will grow up and become wise adults.

1.Which of the following is NOT the typical behavior of a teenage boy?

A. Driving cars too fast.

B. Making their parents annoyed.

C. Quarreling with their friends.

D. Making careless decisions.

2.Teens death rates rise sharply because of their ________.

A. immature brains

B. brave and impatient character

C. small and cheap cars

D. changeable environments

3.From the last paragraph,we can make the conclusion that ________.

A. teenagers should have freedom to do what they like to do

B. teenagers still require lots of care and attention from their parents

C. teenagers usually make their parents annoyed on purpose

D. teenagers actually know how to make wise decisions
