28、ter than sitting with people they dont know.

You may find the
29、bread and butter is free, and if you order coffee, you may get a free refill (续杯).Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants, though they usually do make rules for bars.

35、 they can give a few personal details on the laugh lab website, tell their favourite jokes and judge (判断) the jokes told by other people. The project will last for a year, and the organizers hope to finally find out the worlds funniest joke. But there is also a serious purpose. The researchers want
36、to know what people from different countries find funny. And they want to find out the differences between the man and woman sense of humour. The idea is that if we want to understand each other, we have to find out what makes us laugh. This is a subject that has long interested psychologists (心理学家)
37、 and philosophers (哲学家). Most of the time, people are not honest. We do things that society expects of us and say things that help us get what we want. But laughing cannot be controlled. Often when we laugh, we tell the truth about ourselves. By December 2001 over 10, 000 jokes had been collected. I

But the research found that Germans were more likely to find submitted (被服从的) jokes funny than any other country. “Is this joke funny?” “I dont know, but lets say yes, just to be safe.” Dr Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer. But none of those who took p

42、nd out the differences between the man and woman sense of humour D. to get more personal details about people 55.
