Ways to get your laughter back Through all my school years, laughter was part of my life. My best friend and I came up with a name for the "really good" laughs. We called them Belly Rolls. That may sound silly, but it is the truth. However, after I realized I had "lost" my laughter, the first thing I thought of was how silly I was going to look and sound. 1 . This is how you do it.

2 . It will be a forced laugh. I know it sounds silly, but trust me, if you can't laugh by yourself and be comfortable, it's even harder to laugh in a social situation when you think people are judging you.

Watch only funny programs on TV and at the movies. Be very selective about what you watch. 3 . If you cannot give up those programs absolutely, then watch only half an hour of them a day. Give yourself a fighting chance and make it a point to bring laughter into your life.

Invite your friends and family to make it funny! Don't wait too long before you start laughing socially. Ask someone close to you to point out the fun in life. Maybe they can promise to tell a joke to you every day or sit with you during a half-hour situation comedy. 4 .

While driving, go over your day and remember everything funny. 5 . Not only will this help you laugh more, but it will keep you feeling happy. If you are spending all your time remembering the good times you had for the day, it doesn't leave much time to think negatively！

A．Look in a mirror and laugh.

B．Use this time in a positive way.

C．Laughter is so much more fun when you're with someone else.

D．In our busy world, laughter seems to have been lost along the way.

E．One easy way to find laughter is to watch funny movies on TV.

F．If you're a heavy watcher of news programs and political stations, it's hard to feel happy.

G．If you haven't truly laughed for a long time, you have to fake（假装）it till you make it.

【推荐1】People all have good days and bad days. And some of the bad days happen due to events beyond your control. 1 One way to increase the possibility that you have a good day is to join in “gratification(喜悦)” activities , which you enjoy and you’re good at. 2 However, if you don’t have the type of job, you can take part in other activities and find the same result.

3 There are many little pleasures you can add to your life, such as tea, a warm bath, a walk in the park and so on. As long as you enjoy them, they can really brighten your every day. Laughter is also part of having a good day. That’s why it’s important to do what you can to create joy for you. 4 After all, if you are humorous, you can more easily center on fun things.

If you don’t have much time, one way can be used during a stressful day. 5 You should achieve this by making your plan flexible and checking that everything in your plan is necessary. Being busy is okay, but wasting time and energy on too many unnecessary things can just lead to stress.

【推荐2】Tricks to Make Friends at a New School

Starting with a new school can be difficult. Everything seems to be difficult, and you don’t even know where to go for your own classes. Making new friends can be hard, too. 1

Be yourself.

Never change who you are to try to fit in. If some people don’t accept you, they’re not the kind of friends you need. 2 For example, someone who does a lot of sports may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.

Be friendly to others.

3 If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad, do not say anything and just nod your head if they talk to you. Also, remember to be as helpful as possible!

When you walk in the halls, don’t keep your eyes on the floor. Raise your head and make eye contact with other people. If you see someone you know, smile or say “Hi”. Introduce yourself. Tell them your name and where you’re from.

Remember people’s names.

You like it when people use your name, and so do other people. 5 Besides, ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname (昵称). You’d be surprised at how often this might come in handy.

A．Believe in yourself.

B．Join in after-school activities you like.

C．People often stay together because they have similar interests.

D．Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school.

E．These tricks can help you quickly turn some strangers into friends.

F．People may become angry if you just begin by saying “Hey” each time.

G．Don’t sit at the back of the classroom where other people don’t notice you!
