Invite friends round to your house to watch funny films. They have to pay to watch the films—those with the most comfortable chairs pay more—and for food and drinks.

Hold a talent show at school and ask your friends and teachers to sing, dance or tell jokes. Sell tickets for the show to the rest of the school.

Have a red nose party at your house. All your friends come dressed in red—including red nose—and your serve red food and drinks. If they don’t wear red, they have to pay a fine.

Get the students in your school to make funny sculptures(雕塑)using all kinds of materials. Sell tickets to your Red Nose Day exhibition and part of the money goes to Comic Relief.

The organization has helped people for more than 20 years. And how much have they collected since the first Red Nose Day? Over£600 million!② . In New Zealand, for example, people have made big red noses which they put on the front of cars and even buildings.

Alexander Graham Bell was a British man who was a teacher to people who could not hear. He was born in Edinburgh , Scotland in 1847 and went to school in Edinburgh and London. People who cannot hear any sounds at all are called deaf people, and Alexander became interested in helping them to learn to speak. He taught people how to use their mouths to make the sounds needed for talking.

Bell’s family moved to Canada in 1870 and to the USA in 1871. For several years he taught the people who could not speak in Boston( 波士顿). But at the same time he was developing a way to use electricity to send the sounds of talking along a wire(电线), and he made the first telephone in June, 1875. He worked hard in his workshop for six months with his helper Tom Watson. Finally , he spoke these famous words slowly into the telephone, “Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you.” And Watson came to him.

The telephone developed quickly in the USA over the next few years. The Bell Telephone Company started in 1877, and in 1878 the first telephone centre was built in New York. More than 150, 000 people had telephones in their homes ten years later. Alexander Graham Bell was a kind man and spent much of his money and time during the rest of his life helping deaf people . In 1922 he died in Canada.

Compared some unhappy people, those who are always pleased and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds, a new study. The researchers from New York University said, “ helps the body prevent diseases.”

“It seems that positive feelings may reduce the of illness,” said the chief researcher Sheldon Cohen.

In an earlier study, Cohen found that people who were caught colds less often. And they seldom told their doctors that they felt .

In this study, Cohen’s team interviewed 193 adults every day for two weeks. In this , the people told researchers about happy or sad feelings that day. Two weeks later, all of them were made to catch colds by doctors, and they had to stay in a room for six days.

The results that each in the study was equal (平等的) to fall ill. people who were lively and relaxed said they felt happy during the research. Their illnesses were less serious and lasted for a time.

Cohen believes that people have positive feelings, their body may produce a kind of chemical that helps to illnesses. So if you your health, please look on the bright side and make yourself happy all the time
