While we maythink it feels gdt cmplain,cmplaining has sme bad effects assciatedwith it.
Why isn't cmplaining beneficial? Researchshws that it cnnects ur brain with negativity.The brain is designed t wrk efficiently. Thismeans that when we repeat a thught, negativer psitive, the nerve cells frm a bridgebetween each ther tpass infrmatin at ahigher speed. Therefre, the next time we havea similar type f thught, it is mre easilypassed. This explains why certain thughtpatterns becme habits.
Yet the harmful effects dn't stp there. Astudy shwsthat cmplainingcauses the hippcampus(海马区)，which plays a vital rle in prblem-slving, t becme smaller.
In additin t causing brain damage,cmplaining als releases a stress hrmnecrtisl, a kind f chemical the bdy prduceswhen we meet with sme dangers. Cnstantlyhaving a high level f crtisl results in highbld pressure, high bld sugar, and lwer immunity(免疫力).
The ill effects f ur cmplainingaren'tjust limited t urselves, they als invlve thsearund us. We tend t mirrr the mds f urfriends. Fr this reasn, we shuld be cautius abut having stubbrn(固执的)cmplainers in ur circle f friends.
The best way t deal with cnstantnegativity is t develp a sense f gratitude. Justlike cmplaining acts as a pisn, gratitude actsas a medicine. Research shws it lwers crtisllevels by 23 percent, as well as reduces bldpressure and bld sugar. It als decreasestiredness and depressin. Gratitude is theperfect cure fr cmplaining, a behavir thatsteals ur brain pwer, happiness and physicalwell-being.
What have yu bserved abut the effectsf cmplaining in yur wn life r in the lives fthers? Have yu nticed that when yu aregrateful, yu feel better all ver? Please shareyur thughts in the cmments sectin belw.

The pilt f the bat lked almst 60 but,perhaps because f a lifetime n the pen sea inthe ht sun, was very fit and strng.I waswndering hw he managed t find his way. Tme, it seemed difficult enugh t navigate abat withut any electrnic equipment even n asunny day.
S at least we were safe.But this was ntwhat we had cme alng fr. A lk at the therdivers'faces suggested that nw they were alsdubtful that we'd ever get the chance t see awhale shark-these weather cnditins werettally unsuitable fr diving! Nne f us spke.It seemed t much f an effrt. Then suddenlythe batman stpped the engine. He said a fewwrds in.his wn language t the divinginstructr, wh immediately jumped up frmhis seat and tld us t get ready t dive.
When I jumped int the grey sea, I wassure I wuldn't see anything. But then... there itwas! An enrmuswhale shark, slwlyswimming thrugh the water. I culdn’t believemy eyes-my first whale shark!I hardly daredbreathe-I was afraid mystreamsf bubbles(气泡)might scare the huge creature away. And the ther divers were equally awed.Slwly we apprached this huge animal. It wasswimming quite slwly and we were able tswim with it, lking at the beautiful markingsn its back. I was still hlding my breath,telling myself that this huge fish was harmless! Then I reached ut and tuched it, strking(轻抚) its thick skin. It was amazing hw this giant suddenly gained speed-we watched it as itswam away frm us, and a few mments later itwas gne.

Disrders f the brain are a grwing wrry. Twelve mental-health cnditins affect abut 970 millin peplearund the wrld accrding t the GlbalBurden f Disease Prject: mre than ne in tenf the ppulatin. This figure culd well be an underestimate. Neurlgical(神经学的) prblems such as strke，migraine(偏头痛)，Parkinsn’s and brain injury are cllectively the leadingglbal surce f disability. Ageing ppulatinswith unhealthy ways f life are likely t makethis prblem much wrse everywhere.
In an ideal wrld, science wuld be cmingt the rescue. But the brain is a cmplex rgansmetimes described asthe mst cmplexstructure in the knwn universe. A privatecmpany spent an estimated $ 43 billin nresearch int therapies fr Alzheimer's diseasebetween 1998 and 2017 and came up empty-handed.That bigfailure is perhaps the biggestreasn why, in the 2010s, many drug firmsabandned r cut back n neurscience research
Happily, there are signs f a change.In urTechnlgy Quarterly this week we reprt n arenaissance in neurscience, with many drugcmpanies, sme f them big nes, shwingrenewed interest in the field.This fresh energyis cming frm a variety f techniques and ideas.Mre precise diagnsis and well-cnfirmedbimarkers which reveal the curse f disease,are imprving clinical trials. New kinds ftreatment such as gene therapy, are expandingthe range f diseases that can be tackled. Otheradvances are an increasing amunt f data,which is prving critical t understanding thebilgical rts f neurlgical prblems.
As hpes rise fr tackling this final frntierf bi-medicine, it is wrth remembering thatthe secrets t a healthy brain are nt nly gingt cme frm a pill r psychtherapist'streatments. The health f the brain is influencedby what ges n utside it such as nutritin,exercise, the abuse f alchl, educatin, scialcnnectins and pllutin. Nne f this shuldbe surprising: The health f the brain is tied tthe health and the well-being f the bdy that itsits in.

The British are knwn fr their sense f humr. Hwever, it is ften difficult fr freigners tmake sense f their jkes. The main thing t remember is that theBritish like t make fun f themselves as well as thers.16 Anther key t understandingBritish humr is t knw that the British ften use understatement.
Understatement means saying less than yu think r feel. Fr example, if smene is veryimplite and shuts at anther persn, smene else might say, “He/She isn’t exactly friendly.”Understatement is ften used in unpleasant situatins r t make anther persn lk silly.17The British like t make fun f many ther things. They ften laugh abut the silly and terriblethings that happen t us every day, like when smene accidentally falls ver in the street. Theyals like t make jkes abut peple frm different classes f sciety.18 Finally, the Britishlve t watch cmedies abut peple wh d nt knw hw t behave in sciety. The cmedy TVseries Mr. Bean is a gd example f this kind f humr.
19In pictures, he almst never talks, and instead he uses his bdy mvements and facialexpressins t make peple laugh. Perhaps what makes Mr. Bean s funny is that he des thingsthat adults in the real wrld cannt d. Fr instance, nce Mr. Bean bught a large chair. Heneeded t take it hme, but it was t big t fit in his small car. His slutin was t put the chairn tp f his car.20 Mr. Bean is ppular in many cuntries arund the wrld because yu dnt have t speak English t understand the humr.Because f this, many peple can betterunderstand the British sense f humr.
