when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laughs turned into crying.
So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing are controlled by the
same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so
does crying.
Whatever helps us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional health, and crying seems to
work well. One study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after
crying.
Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us
become kinder and friendlier and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable
us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don"t even know we"re very sad until we cry. We
learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.
Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering-can be bad
for physical health. Studies have shown that too much control of emotions can 1ead to high blood
pressure, heart problems and some other illness. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not
ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don"t fight it. It"s a natural, healthy and emotional response.

someone who has some long and complicated business to do. Having only come in to buy a couple of
stamps, I am obliged to wait patiently while an old lady takes ten minutes to complete a form that a child
could do in one. People in other lines move quickly forward to take their turns and are served by cheerful
clerks. Sometimes, feeling that I cannot bear waiting in my motionless line any longer, I decide to join
another one. It may be longer, but at least it is moving. This always turns out to be the worst thing I could
have done. Not only have I now lost my place in the first line but the one I am in now slows to a stop. An
angry argument suddenly develops between the clerk and the customer at the counter, or information is
asked for which results in the clerk having to ask a senior official or, if it"s a particularly difficult problem,
disappear into a back room. Why it takes him so long, I don"t know. Perhaps he has a quick snack, but,
no, that can"t be right because when at last my turn comes, he pushes forward a printed sign, saying "
Position Closed" and without a smile says, "Sorry, going to lunch"

made for cooking, storing food, and carrying things from place to place. Pottery was so important to the
early culture that scientists now study it to learn more about ancient civilizations. The more advanced the
pottery in terms of pictures, materials and making, the more advanced the culture itself.
The artisan who makes pottery in North America today use his or her skill and imagination to create
items that are beautiful as well as useful, turning something ordinary into something special. The potter
uses one of the Earth"s most basic materials, clay. Clay can be found almost anywhere. Good pottery
clay must be free from all small stones and other hard materials that would make the potting steps
difficult. Most North American artisan potters now buy ready-made clay in stores, but some find the clay
they need right in the earth, close to where they work.
The most important tools potters use are their own hands; however, they also use wooden modeling
tools, plain wire, and sponges. Plain wire is used to cut away the finished pot from its vase on the potter"s wheel.
After a finished pot is dried of all its wet part in the open air, it is placed in a kiln and fired. The first
firing hardens the pottery, arid it is then ready to be glazed and fired again.
For areas where they do not want any glaze, such as the bottom of the pot, artisans paint on melted
wax that will later bum off in the kiln. They then pour on the liquid glaze and let it run over the clay surface, making any kind of designs that they want.
