39、目要求用英文回答以下问题。When people are asked whats important in their lives, they often mention humor, yet philosophers would disagree.The first is how little they have said. The most that major philosophers like Plato, Hobbes, and Kant wrote about laughter or humor was a few paragraphs within a discussion of

40、 another topic. Martian anthropologists （人类学家）comparing the amount of philosophical writing on humor with what has been written on, say, justice, might well conclude that humor could be left out of human life without much loss.The second is how negative most philosophers have been in their assessmen

41、ts of humor. From ancient Greece until the 20th century, the vast majority of philosophical comments on laughter and humor focused on scornful （蔑视 的）or mocking laughter, or on laughter that overpowers people, rather than on comedy, wit, or joking. Plato, the most influential critic of laughter, trea

42、ted laughter as an emotion that overrides （凌驾于）rational self-control. He says the guardians of the state should avoid laughter, for when one abandons himself to violent laughter, his condition causes a violent reaction.Another of Platos objections to laughter is that it is evil. Plato analyzes the e

43、njoyment of comedy as a form of scorn. The people we laugh at imagine themselves to be wealthier, better looking, or more virtuous than they really are. In laughing at them, we take delight in something evil: their self- ignorance.Because of these objections to laughter and humor, Plato says that in

44、 the ideal state, comedy should be tightly controlled. tWe shall order that such representations be left to slaves or hired aliens, and receive no serious consideration whatsoever. No free person, whether woman or man, shall be found taking lessons in them.Greek thinkers after Plato had similarly ne

45、gative comments. Though Aristotle considered wit a valuable part of conversation, he agreed with Plato that laughter expresses scorn. The Stoics, with their emphasis on self-control, agreed with Plato that laughter weakens self-control. Epictetus9s Enchiridion advises Let not your laughter be loud,

46、frequent, or unrestrained.His followers said that he never laughed at all.36. What conclusion do Martian anthropologists make on humor?37. Why did Plato suggest that the governors of a country should get rid of laughter?38. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline

47、 it and explain why.The Stoics also had negative comments on laughter but they emphasized that laughter strengthened self-control.39. Do you agree with the philosophers, ideas mentioned in the passage about humor? Why or why not? （In about 40 words）【答案 J 36. Humor could be left out of human life wit

48、hout much loss.37. Because Plato thought violent laughter causes a violent reaction.38. The Stoics also had negative comments on laughter but they emphasized that laughter strengthened self-control.; Because the Stoics thought that laughter weakens self-control.39.1 dont agree with the philosophers9

49、 ideas mentioned in the passage, because I think laughter is a human instinct and humor is a necessity in life. Both of them are indispensable seasonings, which make our life colorful and meaningful. Without laughter and humor, life would be boring and dull.【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了众多哲学家对“笑”的态度，他们认为笑声和幽默应该受到限制。
