As an English saying goes, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.
Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. It increases blood pressure, makes the heart beat quicker and makes people breathe deeper; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach, and even the feet. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.
有句英语谚语说:“笑是最好的良药。”直到最近，很少有人认真对待这句话。然而，现在医生们已经开始研究笑及其对人体的影响。他们发现笑真的可以改善人们的健康。
为了研究笑对身体的影响，进行了一些测试。当医生检查他们的心脏、血压、呼吸和肌肉时，人们观看滑稽电影。研究发现，笑与体育锻炼有相似的效果。它会使人血压升高，心跳加快，呼吸更深;它还可以锻炼面部、胃部、甚至脚上的几组肌肉。如果笑能锻炼身体，那一定是有益的。
Do you want to live a happier, less stressfullife? Try laughing for no reason at all．That's how millions of people start their day at LaughterClubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy．
Many doctors are also interested in the effectsof laughter on our health．According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body．Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40％．
So what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out．I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest, I wasn't interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking silly．Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other．However, our bodies can't tell the difference between real laughter and unreal laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects．
Surprisingly, it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn't stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt．So if you're under stress, then start laughing．You might be very pleased with the results．
你想过一种更快乐、压力更小的生活吗?试着毫无理由地笑。这就是全世界数百万人在笑声俱乐部开始一天生活的方式，现在许多医生认为，开怀大笑可能是保持健康的最好方法之一。
许多医生也对笑对我们健康的影响感兴趣。根据加州大学洛杉矶分校医学院的一项为期5年的研究，笑能减少身体的压力。笑能使我们的健康水平提高40%左右。
那么在欢笑俱乐部里会发生什么呢?为了找到答案，我去了伦敦南部最近的一家俱乐部。在开始上课的时候我很紧张，说实话，我对和一群陌生人一起笑不感兴趣，我担心自己看起来很傻。我们的笑声老师告诉我们拍我们的手，说“嗬嗬嗬，哈哈哈”，而看着对方。然而，我们的身体无法区分真正的笑声和不真实的笑声，所以它们仍然产生同样的健康效果。
令人惊讶的是,它的工作原理!十分钟后，房间里的每个人都真的笑了起来，有些人就是停不下来!在课程结束时，我惊讶地发现自己感到多么放松和舒适。所以，如果你感到压力，那就开始笑吧。你可能会对结果非常满意。

我永远选择成全别人恶心自己
近几日心情不爽，事出3年前，我曾竭尽全力救治过的患者，因为最终效果不佳竟然起诉了我。
但是，今天这例颅咽管瘤病人，我依然固执的选择了内镜经鼻入路微创切除肿瘤。成全别人，恶心自己，我还是道义上本能的选择了后者。
This patient has a killing disease, and you want to send him home, he should be treated by the best experience and skills/ for me taking care of the patients has been always more important than fear of disputes and lawsuits/ we should be medical doctors , not a fearing laughing bunch/ thus is my life time experience .（这个病人得了致命性疾病，你却想送他回家，他应该接受最好的和最有经验的人的治疗/对我来讲，照顾病人总是比恐惧纠纷和诉讼更重要/我们应该是医生，而不是一群害怕被嘲笑的人/这就是我的人生经验。）——Juha教授的这句话我一直留着，他走的时候没能去送送，多少是个缺憾。
囊性颅咽管瘤看似平淡无奇，实则与下丘脑视神经黏连紧密，肿瘤起源于垂体柄上段，术中不得不停下来仔细阅片方能下定决心沿着角质增生带小心锐性分离肿瘤边界。年轻医生鞍底重建的技术过硬，术后无脑脊液鼻漏，尿量和内分泌正常，不日即可出院。
疫情仍在持续，各种防控让心里就像压了一块铅，莫名其妙的堵着，压抑的透不过气来。曾经不可一世的魔都，在疫情面前还是无奈的袒露了真实的精神底色，榨出华丽皮袍下面的一堆臭虫。在我的潜意识里，医院是不能停摆的，尤其是瘟疫和战争，那可能是唯一有温度的避难所。想想无力如婴孩的老人，那些被打死也不知道跑的，眼神不解的宠物。或许是疫情使人忘了，生活在地球上的，是人，而不光是冷冰冰的制度。加缪说过：人一旦意识到世界荒诞，即便没有染上疫症，也平添了心病。
对医生来讲，这世间，只有一种病毒对人类文明最具威胁，那就是对生命的漠视。

Eat different food
If you eat different food, you can get the nutrients your body needs. You have to eat two kinds of fruits and three kinds of vegetables a day.
Drink water often
When you’re really thirsty, water is the No. 1 choice. How much do kids need? If you are older than 12 years old, drink 3 cups a day.
Listen to your body
When you’re eating, notice how your body feels. Sometimes, people eat too much because they don’t notice when they need to stop eating. Eating too much can make you feel uncomfortable.
Limit screen time
What’s screen time? It’s the time you spend watching TV or using the computer. Try to spend at most two hours a day on the screen.
Be active
What activities do you like best? Find ways to be active every day. You can write down lots of things to do, and then you can do them when your parents say it’s time to stop watching TV or playing computer games!
父母、医生和老师都想知道如何帮助孩子们保持健康。这里有五条保持健康的规则。
吃不同的食物
如果你吃不同的食物，你可以得到你的身体需要的营养。你每天必须吃两种水果和三种蔬菜。
经常喝水
当你真的很渴的时候，水是第一选择。孩子们需要多少钱?如果你超过12岁，每天喝3杯。
倾听你的身体
当你吃东西的时候，注意你身体的感觉。有时候，人们吃得太多是因为他们没有注意到什么时候需要停止吃东西。吃得太多会让你感觉不舒服。
控制屏幕时间
屏幕是什么时间?它是你花在看电视或使用电脑上的时间。试着每天花在屏幕上的时间不超过两个小时。
保持活跃的
你最喜欢什么活动?找到每天活跃的方法。你可以写下很多要做的事情，然后当你的父母说该停止看电视或玩电脑游戏的时候，你就可以去做了!

Do you want to live a happier, less stressful life? Try laughing for no reason at all．That's how millions of people start their day at Laughter Clubs around the world and many doctors now think that having a good laugh might be one of the best ways to stay healthy．
The first Laughter Club was started in Mumbai, India, in 1995 by Dr．Madan Kataria．“Young children laugh about 300 times a day．Adults laugh between 7 and 15 times a day,” says Dr．Kataria．“Everyone is naturally good at laughing － it's the common language．We want people to feel happy with their lives．” There are now more than 500 Laughter Clubs in India and over 1,300 in the world．
Many doctors are also interested in the effects of laughter on our health．According to a 5-year study at the UCLA School of Medicine in California, with laughing there is less stress in the body．Laughter improves our health against illness by about 40％．
So what happens at a Laughter Club? I went along to my nearest club in South London to find out．I was quite nervous at the beginning of the class, to be honest, I wasn't interested in laughing with a group of strangers, and I was worried about looking silly．Our laughter teacher told us to clap our hands and say “ho ho ho, ha ha ha” while looking at each other．However, our bodies can't tell the difference between real laughter and unreal laughter, so they still produce the same healthy effects．
Surprisingly,it works! After ten minutes everybody in the room was laughing for real and some people just couldn't stop! At the end of the class I was surprised by how relaxed and comfortable I felt．So if you're under stress, then start laughing．You might be very pleased with the results．
Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one.,In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people..They find that the phones are more than a means of communication – having mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosions around the world in mobile phone use make some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity(负面报道)of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand, signs of change in the issues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn’t remember even simple tasks. . This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful?. The answer is radiation(辐射). High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about.
As the discussion about the safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phones less often.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it’s wise not to use your mobile phone too often.
疫情素材高中英语作文1
This winter vacation, the sudden new pneumonia disrupted the pace of people's celebration of the Spring Festival, especially in Wuhan, a serious epidemic area, a large number of people's livelihood diseases led to doctors' emergency, beds' emergency, medical supplies' emergency, and a war without gunpowder is starting.
The virus has no lover. Every change of the epidemic affected the hearts of the people of the whole country and even the people of the world: neighboring Japan not only did not refuse Chinese tourists to enter China, but also gave a large number of medical materials to our country; overseas students tried their best to raise masks and transport them back to China at the first time; medical students and nurses from all over the world left their families and rushed to the front line to cure the disease and save the people, and they worked day and night, tired and trapped Lying on the table and resting on the ground for a while, Huzhou's 83 year old grandfather made a living by picking up rubbish, but he did not hesitate to donate the ten thousand yuan saved by frugality; an uncle from Anhui ran into the police station, threw 500 masks, turned around and left, silently giving his love
Looking at the warm stories on the Internet, I am deeply moved and would like to offer a love and do my best to help those in need. However, I have neither protective equipment to donate, nor the ability to cure the disease and save people. What should I do? Just when I was sad, Dad smiled and pointed out a way for me - online donation. So, I quickly took out 130 yuan of class scholarship that I earned through my hard work last semester, and asked my father to donate through the online donation platform of Ningbo Charity Federation. After receiving it.
I believe that the difficulty is only temporary. Through our joint efforts, we will win the war against the virus and usher in a warm spring day as soon as possible.
