Laugh and the world laughs with you. Even better, you mightlive longer, a Norwegian researcher reports.
笑一笑，世界与你同笑。但据挪威研究人员称，笑的功效甚至不止于此，笑还可以延年益寿。
Adults who have a sense of humor outlive those whodon't find life funny, and the survival edge is particularly largefor people with cancer, says Sven Svebak of the medical school atNorwegian University of Science and Technology.

At the start, patients filled out questionnaires on how easily theyfound humor in real-life situations and how important a humorousperspective was.
研究人员先让病人们填写调查问卷，其中包括在现实生活中发现幽默的容易程度以及幽默视角的重要性等问题。
The greater a role humor played in their lives, the greater theirchances of surviving the seven years, Svebak says. Adults whoscored in the top one-quarter for humor appreciation were 35% morelikely to be alive than those in the bottom quarter, he says.
斯维白克说，病人的幽默感越强，他在七年之内活下来的可能性越大。幽默感得分位居前四分之一的病人生存下来的几率比排在后四分之一的病人高35%。
In a subgroup of 2,015 who had a cancer diagnosis at the start, agreat sense of humor cut someone's chances of death by about 70%compared with adults with a poor sense of humor, Svebaksays.
据斯维白克介绍，对一个共有2015名癌症病人的小组的研究表明，幽默感较强的人死亡的几率比没什么幽默感的人低70%左右。
