Before I studied psychology, I used to think that people wouldlaugh when funny things occurred. While I was right about that, I discoveredthere are lots of other psychological factors that make people laugh other thanthe funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, there will usually bemore than one reason that makes him laugh—and the more reasons there are, themore powerful the joke will be.
I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt, and when theman started to make fun of pedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed theirhearts out. The main reason those people strongly laughed was that almost allof them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streets carelessly. The jokewasn’t only funny, it also made the audience feel that they were right aboutbeing angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because ofthe funny joke and because of the happiness experienced as a result of thepsychological support they got.
The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includesother psychological factors, the more the person will like it. For example, ifyou envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, atthe same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probably laugh atit louder than if you weren’t jealous of him.
In short, we don’t laugh only when we hear something funny; wealso laugh when we experience some kind of happiness that results from theother psychological factors involved in the joke. I strongly discourage makingfun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone else laugh. All Iwant to explain is that if your joke supports a person’s emotions, he willcertainly like it a lot.

In the famous fairy tale, Snow White eats the Queen's apple and falls victim to a curse(诅咒);in Shakespeare's novel, Romeo drinks the poison and dies; some ancient Chinese emperors took pellets(药丸)that contained mercury(水银), believing that it would make them immortal, but they died afterward.

Poison has long been an important ingredient in literature and history, and it seems to always be associated with evil, danger and death. But how much do you really know about poison?
An exhibition, The Power of Poison, opened last month at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, intended to give the audience a more vivid understanding of poison.
The museum tour starts in a rainforest setting, where you can see live examples of some of the most poisonous animals: caterpillars(毛毛虫), frogs and spiders. Golden poison frogs, for instance, aren't much bigger than a coin, but their skin is covered with a poison that can cut off the signaling power of your nerves, and a single frog has enough venom to kill 10 grown humans.
"Poisons can be bad for some things," Michael Novacek, senior vice president of the museum, told NBC News. "Yet they can also be good for others."
A poisonous chemical found in the yew tree is effective against cancer, which is what led to the invention of a cancer-fighting drug called Taxol.
The benefits from natural poisons are not limited to just medicine. Believe it or not, many substances(物质)that we regularly ingest(摄入)-chili, coffee and chocolate-owe their special flavors or stimulating(提神的)effects to chemicals that plants make to poison insects.
