保持乐观

Keeping Pleasant In these grim times, weighed down with tension and pressure from the realities of life, many people have lost their sense of humor. They tend to keep a straight face all day long and fail to keep life in perspective. They forget how to smile and finally become physical and mental wrecks. They regard life as a burden, and tend to look on the dark side of things.Well goes a saying, “Laugh, and grow fat.” Laughter releases tension, and smiling helps create a pleasant social atmosphere. And, thus, in a way, a sense of humor is an elixir that helps cure mental diseases. Some patients even improve their physical and mental health by reading humorous stories or watching funny movies. This proves that a sense of humor helps us look at the world in a true and healthy light and makes our life worth living. grim 冷酷的 tension 紧张 pressure 压力 reality 现实 sense of humor 幽默感 perspective 观点，远景 mental 精神上的 wreck 破坏，失去健康的 burden 负担 atmosphere 气氛 elixir 万能药
