根据下列文章,请回答 36～40 题。 The Body Thieves
In the early nineteenth century in Britain，manyimprovements were being made in the world of medicine．Doctors and surgeons werebecoming more knowledgeable about the human bed y．Illnesses that had been fatala few years before were now curable．However, surgeons had one problem．Theyneeded dead bodies to cut up，or dissect(解剖)．This was the only way that theycould leam about the flesh and bones inside the body, and the only way to teachnew surgeons to carry out operations．
Thejob of finding these dead bodies was carried out by an unpleasant group of people called” body snatchers”．They went intograveyards(墓地)at night and，using wooden shovels to make less noise。dug up anyrecently buried bodies．Then they took the bodies to the medical schools andsold them．A body could be sold for between￡5 and￡1o．which was a lot of money atthat time．The doctors who paid the body snatchers had an agreement withthem—-they never asked any questions．They did not desire to know where thebodies came from．as long as they kept arriving．
The most famous of these body snatcherswere two men from Edinburgh called William Burke and William Hare．Burke andHare were different because they did not just dig up bodies from graveyards．Theygot greedy and enough of an easier way to find bodies．Instead of digging themup，they killed the poorer guests in Hare's small hotel。Dr Knox．The respectedsurgeon they worked for, never asked why all the bodies they brought him hadbeen strangled(勒死)．
For many years Burke and Hare were notcaught because，unsurprisingly, the bodies of their victims were never found bythe police．They were eventually arrested and put on trial in 1829．The judgeshowed mercy to Hare and he was released but Burke was found guilty and hispunishment was to be hanged．Appropriately, his body was given to the medicalschool and he ended up on the dissecting table，just like his victims．in onesmall way, justice was done．
Now，over 15o years later, surgeons do notneed the help of criminals to learn their skills．However, the science ofsurgery could not have developed without their rather gruesome(令人毛骨悚然的)help．

Happy Therapy (诊疗) Norman Cousins was a businessman from the United States who often traveled around the world on business. He enjoyed his work and traveling.
Then, after returning to tile United States from a busy and tiring trip to Russia, Mr. Cousins got sick. Because he had pushed his body to the limit of its strength on the trip, a chemical change began to take place inside him. The material between his bones became weak.
In less than one week after his return, he could not stand. Every move that he made was painful. He was not able to sleep at night.
The doctors told Mr. Cousins that they did not know how to cure his problems and he might never get over the illness. Mr. Cousins, however, refused to give up hope.
Mr. Cousins thought that unhappy thoughts were causing bad chemical changes in his body. He did not want to take medicine to cure himself. Instead, he felt that happy thoughts or laughter might cure his illness.
He began to experiment on himself while still in the hospital by watching funny shows on television. Mr. Cousins quickly found that ten minutes of real laughter during the day gave him two hours of pain-free sleep at night.
Deciding that the doctors could not help him, Mr. Cousins left the hospital and checked into a hotel room where he could continue his experiments with laughter. For eight days, Mr. Cousins rested in the hotel room watching funny shows on television, reading funny books, and sleeping whenever he felt tired. Within three weeks, he felt well enough to take a vacation to Puerto Rico where he began running on the beach for exercise.
After a few months, Mr. Cousins returned to work He had laughed himself back to health.
