Ⅴ.阅读理解
Dr.Wiseman started “the laugh lab” project in September 2001.It is the largest study of humor.Participants(参加者)are invited to log on the laugh lab website,give a few personal details,tell their favorite jokes and judge the jokes told by other people.
The project will last for a year,and the organizers hope to finally discover the world's funniest joke.But there is also a serious purpose.The researchers want to know what people from different nations and cultures find funny.And they want to find out the differences between the male and female senses of humor.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)and philosophers(哲学家).Most of the time,people are not completely honest.We do things that society expects of us and say things that help us get what we want.But laughing cannot be controlled.When we laugh,we tell the truth about ourselves.
By December 2001,over 10,000 jokes had been submitted.This gave the scientists enough evidence to make early conclusions.It seems that men and women do have different senses of humor,for instance.
“Our findings show the major differences in the ways in which males and females use humor,” said Dr.Wiseman.“Males use humor to appear superior(优越)to others,while women are more skilled in languages and prefer word play.”
Researchers also found that there really is such a thing as a national sense of humor.The British enjoy what is usually called “toilet humor”.But the French like their jokes short and sharp:“You're a high priced lawyer.Will you answer two questions for $500?” “Yes.What's the second question?”
The Germans are famous for not having a sense of humor.But the survey found that German participants were more likely to find submitted jokes funny than any other nationality.Perhaps that proves the point.Is this joke funny?I don't know,but let's say yes,just to be safe.
Dr.Wiseman and his workmates also submitted jokes created by computer.But none of those who took part in the survey found any of them amusing.Perhaps this is relief.Computers already seem like they can do everything.At least they should leave the funny stuff to us.

Professor Yuan Longping,the father of hybrid rice,expressed the hope that he would grow more crops on less farmland.The 77-year-old scientist is the pioneer of hybrid rice research and he has been carrying out his work since the 1960s.The scientist invented hybrid rice and was also the first to successfully change the self-pollinating(授粉)characteristics of rice.His hard work and devotion made large-scale farming of hybrid rice possible,thus making the nation self-reliant(自给自足的)on rice.Talking about farmers' happiness and their strong response to hybrid rice,Professor Yuan recalled how an old farmer in Hunan Province became over-joyed during Phase(阶段)Ⅰ.“Thank you for teaching me how to plant the super hybrid rice.I've never had such a good harvest in forty years of rice farming.I have the highest regard for you and your fellow scientists,” the professor said,recalling the words of the farmer.
Apart from being highly productive,the hybrid rice is also tasty.Recalling another incident,Professor Yuan said three years ago some reporters from Hong Kong and Shenzhen had a chance to taste the rice.A young female reporter had two bowls of rice.On another occasion,a rich businessman even had three bowls of rice and took home some of the rice for his family.
Under the super rice planting programme,set up by China's Ministry of Agriculture,a total of 10.5 tons of hybrid rice per hectare(公顷)was produced in Phase Ⅰ from 1996 to 2000.The production target was increased to 12 tons per hectare in Phase Ⅱ from 2001 to 2005,with the target achieved in 2004.Professor Yuan said Phase Ⅲ planting was well underway,and he was confident that the target could be achieved in 2010.Professor Yuan's achievements in hybrid rice research have won him a large number of international awards,like the UNESCO(联合国教科文组织)Science Prize.
