26、lation decline is a good thing. But is it good for everyone?Does everyone agree?An aging population can create many problems. Senior citizens require more health care andmedical attention.

While I was right about that, I discovered there are lot

36、s of other psychological factorsthat make people laugh other than the funny part of a joke. When someone laughs at a joke, therewill usually be more than one reason that makes him laughand the more reasons there are, themore powerful the joke will be.I was attending a stand-up comedy show in Egypt,

37、and when the man started to make fun ofpedestrians crossing streets, everyone laughed their hearts out. The main reason those peoplestrongly laughed was that almost all of them felt angry towards pedestrians who crossed streetscarelessly. The joke wasnt only funny, it also made the audience feel tha

38、t they were right aboutbeing angry at those pedestrians. That is, people were laughing both because of the funny joke andbecause of the happiness experienced as a result of the psychological support they got.The better a joke makes a person feel, and the more it includes other psychological factors,

39、the more the person will like it. For example, if you envy one of your friends, and someone tells a joke that is funny and, at the same time, makes your friend seem stupid, then you will probablylaugh at it louder than if you werent jealous of him.In short, we dont laugh only when we hear something

40、funny; we also laugh when weexperience some kind of happiness that results from the other psychological factors involved inthe joke. I strongly discourage making fun of anyone or belittling someone to make someone elselaugh. All I want to explain is that if your joke supports a persons emotions, he

41、will certainly likeit a lot.12.What did the author find out after studying psychology?A. Only good jokes make people laughB. Many factors lead to people laughing.C.
