III. Read the passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
 No Pain, Big Gains
 In China, it is believed that tai chi can delay ageing and prolong life, increase flexibility, strengthen 
muscles and tendons, and aid in the treatment of heart disease, high blood pressure, arthritis, skin diseases, 
depression, cancer, and many other diseases.
 Most of the research on tai chi has been done in older individuals in the area of balance and fall prevention. 
This area of research is important because fall-related injuries are the leading cause of death from injury and 
disability among older adults. Because tai chi movements are slow and deliberate with shifts of body weight 
from one leg to the other in coordination with upper body movements, it challenges balance and many have 
long assumed it helps improve balance and reduce fall frequency.
 In a similar tai chi study of older adults, 54% of the subjects who practised tai chi attributed their improved 
sense of confidence to improved balance. One study looked at adults in their 60s and 70s who practised tai chi 
three times a week for 12 weeks (60-minute classes). After just six weeks, statistically significant 
improvements were observed in balance, muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility measures. 
Improvements in each of these areas increased further after another 12 weeks.
 The demands of living are stressful for adults of all ages. Although one cannot directly point to studies 
showing a reduction in stress from practising tai chi, the breathing, movement, and mental concentration 
required of individuals who practise tai chi may be just the distraction you need from your hectic lifestyle.
1. It is believed by many in the world that tai chi has many benefits in treatments of many illnesses and 
diseases. ______
2. Injuries from falls are a big problem among elderly people. ______ 6. to share your feelings or secrets with someone __________________
IV. Read the text, and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question.
 Discover How Laughter Can Work for You!
You’ve probably heard the expression “Laughter is the best medicine”. Scientists and medical doctors now 
agree that laughter can help people to deal with stress and anger. Research has shown that people who feel 
happy and relaxed are healthier and have better relationships.
Laughter Yoga is a series of exercises. Laughter Yoga teaches you to laugh for no reason. You don’t have to 
have a sense of humour, or understand funny jokes. You just have to laugh.
When you do Laughter Yoga in a group, you laugh and do yoga breathing, so that you increase the amount of 
oxygen in your body. Soon the laughter exercises turn into real laughter. After a laughter yoga class, you feel 
calm and relaxed, but also full of energy and happy.
Laughter Yoga was developed by Dr. Kataria, a doctor from India. Laughter Yoga classes started in Mumbai 
in 1995 with just five people, and now there are over 6,000 laughter clubs in sixty different countries.
Julie Whitehead was one of the first people in the UK to become a Laughter Yoga teacher with Dr. Kataria. 
She says, “Yoga has been a part of my life for thirty years, but in 2002 my life changed when I discovered 
Laughter Yoga. I am particularly interested in health and well-being.”
She is a member of Laughter Network, a group of professionals who want to bring more laughter, health, and 
happiness into people’s lives. They run Laughter Yoga classes and workshops in the UK, and Julie runs 
Laughter Yoga holidays in Turkey, Egypt, Spain, and Morocco.
Laughing is good for the body and the mind. When we laugh, we breathe more oxygen into our body, which 
helps to keep us healthy. Endorphins, or happy chemicals, are released in the body, and you feel more relaxed 
and happy. Laughter also brings people together to share some fun. Companies who have run Laughter Yoga 
workshops find that they have advantages for both employers and employees. People who are happy at work 
are more hard-working and make more money for the company. Also, people who laugh together communicate 
more successfully. In general, people do better at work when they feel happy and relaxed.
If you’re not sure about Laughter Yoga, remember this, children laugh 300 - 400 times a day, but adults only 
laugh around fifteen times a day.
Get more laughter in your life - you can feel the change in you, and when you change, the world changes. 
Laughter is really the best medicine. You can get more information about Laughter Yoga on its website at
