How to Stop Laughing at Inappropriate Times
Although laughing at inappropriate times can be embarrassing, it's actually a natural reaction for some people when they're facing a highly stressful situation. It can help you relieve stress and release your own tension. Here are some ways to stop laughing.
Distract yourself from your urge to laugh.
It takes time to learn how to curb your tendency to laugh, but distraction is an easy way to stop yourself, in the meantime. For example, you can pinch yourself. The slight pain will distract you from your urge to laugh. Choose any color and see how many places you can spot it in the area. This small goal will shift your focus from laughter and your emotions.
.
What can you do instead of laughing nervously? For example, nod, lick your lips, exhale slowly, or click a pen. What you decide to replace your laughter with depends on the circumstances that are causing your laughter. For example, you may laugh nervously during work meetings. If you tend to laugh at serious moments, take a deep breath at moments when you'd typically laugh.
Identify what makes you laugh inappropriately.
Do you laugh out of nervousness, or do you laugh to cope with painful feelings? Maybe you laugh because you have a lot of energy or have trouble finding the words you want to say. Whatever your reasons for laughing, write down when your laughter is causing you issues. Consider the time, location, occasion, and people who could be causing your laughter. These are called your triggers..
A. Create a plan for replacing your laughter.
B. Choose replacement behaviors for the laughter.
C. You can also look for a certain color in the room.
D. If this is the case, click your pen instead of laughing.
E. But the inappropriate laughter may negatively affect your life.
F. Once you know what they are, you can begin to address your habit of laughing.
G. Tell yourself, "The next time I feel awkward in a work meeting, I will click my pen."

18、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When I stepped into the Samcheong Park Library in Seoul, I saw the future. The simple building had a nice selection of books and a cafe where readers could enjoy coffee while gazing at the leaves outside. It was specifically designed without any latest technology.
"What's so innovative about that?" a librarian in Toronto asked when I showed her pictures. Innovation to her meant digital technology, like 3D printers. "Why couldn't they both be innovative?" I asked.
We are constantly told that innovation is the most important force in our economy, without which we would be left behind. But that fear of missing out has led us to fall into the false trappings of innovation over truly innovative ideas that may be simpler and more effective. This mindset implies that if you just buy the new thing, you have innovated! Each year, businesses and individuals run around like broken toy robots, trying to figure out their strategy for the latest buzzword equipment.
At best, this is a waste of resources. Devices are bought, used and abandoned, as the technology's capabilities fall short of its promise. But at its worst, this approach can truly cause damage. Schools cut field trips to purchase tablets with few proven benefits. Companies that applied AI into hiring have actually strengthened gender and racial prejudices.
True innovation isn't just some magic devices. It is a continuing process of reflection and reassessment, which often means adopting "old" ideas and tools in a new context, or even returning to methods that worked in the past. Adjusted properly, these rearview(后视的) innovations have proved as transformative as novel technologies.
Look no farther than the streets of New York, which have been redesigned recently to accommodate cyclists with car-free zones. The idea isn't new. It was created half a century ago, with the aim of bringing cities back to their residents. And while e-reader sales have been exploding, Penguin just announced it would publish tiny printed books, an ideal solution for a market demanding both convenience and physicality.
(1)、Which of the following best describes Samcheong Park Library?A、Dull but convenient. B、Simple but refreshing. C、Old-fashioned but cozy. D、Unexceptional but spacious.(2)、What can we learn about innovation from Paragraph 3?A、Its true meaning is to buy new things. B、It is important for the growth of economy. C、It shouldn't involve simple and effective ideas. D、Its true meaning has been misread by the public.(3)、Which statement will the author probably agree with?A、Magic devices encourage innovation. B、Innovation should be human-centered. C、The power of technology is undervalued. D、Wasting resources are a must for innovation.(4)、What is the writing purpose of the text?A、To introduce some best ideas about innovation. B、To show that future lies in returning to the past. C、To convince people of the true meaning of innovation. D、To stress the important role innovation plays in economy. -

A team in Norway recently conducted in-depth research on writing by hand and typing on a keyboard.
The team invited 36 university students who had to either write or type words displayed on a screen. The study participants used a digital pen to write in cursive (草书) on a touchscreen, and they used one finger on a keyboard to type. The researchers used a special cap with 256 sensors. This cap was worn by the students, and their brain activity was recorded for five seconds each time they were asked to write or type.
"We show that when writing by hand, brain connectivity patterns are far more complex than when typewriting on a keyboard," says Professor Audrey van der Meer, the team leader. "Such widespread brain connectivity is known to be important for memory formation and for encoding (编码) new information and, therefore, is beneficial for learning." The researchers also note that even though the participants used digital pens for writing in the study, they believe the findings would be similar if the participants used an ink pen and paper.
"We've shown that the differences in brain activity are related to the careful forming of the letters when writing by hand while making more use of the senses. Since it's the movement of the fingers carried out when forming letters that promotes brain connectivity, writing in print also has similar benefits for learning as cursive writing," Audrey adds. "This also explains why children who have learned to write and read on a tablet can have difficulty differentiating between letters that are mirror images of each other, such as 'b' and 'd'. They haven't felt with their bodies what it feels like to produce those letters."
Considering handwritten note-taking is becoming less common in educational settings, the researchers advocate for more opportunities for students to write by hand. "There's some evidence that students learn more and remember better when taking handwritten lecture notes, while using a computer with a keyboard may be more pragmatic when writing a long text or essay," Audrey concludes.
(1)、What was the special cap used to do?A、Measure the participants' brain activity. B、Evaluate the participants' writing styles. C、Tell the participants when to write or type. D、Record the time the participants used to write.(2)、What does paragraph 3 focus on about the study?A、Its backgrounds. B、Its equipment. C、Its outcomes. D、Its process.(3)、What plays the key role in strengthening brain connectivity?A、Writing letters carefully by hand. B、Forming the habit of taking notes. C、Recognizing letters' mirror images. D、Learning to practice cursive writing.(4)、What does the underlined word "pragmatic" in the last paragraph mean?A、Difficult. B、Traditional. C、Special. D、Practical. -
20、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
When Belquer first joined a team to make a better live music experience for deaf and hard-of-hearing people, he was struck by how they had developed more solutions to enjoy concerts. "What they were doing at the time was holding balloons to feel the vibrations(震动) through theirfingers," Belquer said. He thought the team could make something to help hard-of-hearing people enjoy live music even more with the technology now available.
Belquer, who is also a musician and theater artist, is now the "Chief Vibration Officer" of Music: Not Impossible, which uses new technology to address social issues like poverty and disability access. His team started by tying different vibrating cell phone motors to bodies, but that didn't quite work. The vibrations were all the same. Eventually, they worked with engineers to develop a light haptic (触觉的) suit with a total of 24 vibrating plates. There are 20 of them tied to a undershirt that fits tightly around the body like a hiking backpack, plus one that ties to each wrist and ankle, When you wear the suit, it's surprising how it feels.
The vibrations are mixed by a haptic DJ who controls the location, frequency and intensity of feeling across the suits, just as a music DJ mixes sounds in an artful way. "What we're doing is selecting and mixing what we want and send it to different parts of the body," said the DJ. The haptic suits were just one component of the event. There were American Sign Language interpreters; the music was displayed on a screen on the stage.
The suits are the star attraction. Lily Lipman, who has auditory processing disorder, lit up when asked about her experience. "It's cool, because I'm never quite sure if I'm hearing what other people are hearing, so it's amazing to get the music in my body."
(1)、What surprised Belquer about people with hearing problems?A、The attitude they held to life. B、The way they enjoyed music. C、The love they had for balloons. D、The frequency they vibrated fingers.(2)、Why did the team's initial attempt fail?A、The vibrations lacked variety. B、The vibrations were irregular. C、The motors were the same. D、The motors hardly worked.(3)、What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?A、Displaying music on the stage. B、Selecting proper suits for participants. C、Mixed methods helping people feel the music. D、Interpreters with excellent sign language skills.(4)、What does Lily Lipman think of the suit?A、It's comforting. B、It's challenging. C、It's satisfying. D、It's disturbing.
