He was born in France in 1828.His father wanted him to become a lawyer,but from his early twenties Verner decided to become a writer. At first he wrote plays for the theater. Then in 1863,he wrote a story called Five weeks in a Balloon. The success of this book encouraged him to write more stories such as A journey to the Center of the Earth (1864) and From the Earth to the Moon (1865).In the 19th century,many people were interested in science and inventions,Jules Verne wrote about scientific subjects in his stories and, as a result,they were very popular. Verne’s writing had many predictions for the 20th century and many of them came true. He described space flight,movies and air conditioning,a long time before they appeared. These books were very successful and they made Verne rich. Jules Verne’s books have been the subjects for many movies. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was a successful movie for Walt Disney. It was the first Disney movie to use real actors instead of cartoon drawings, Around the World in Eighty Days is another famous movie based on one of Verne’s books.

The results were opposite. He found that their blood flow decreased (下降) during the war movie and increased during the comedy. As we know,exercise can make blood flow increase. Dr Miller pointed out that laughter might be almost as healthy as exercise. Dr Wei Jiang of Duke University studied over 1,000 heart failure patients. He discovered that those who often felt sad had a 44% higher risk of death. In other words,being happy is good for our heart and helps us live longer.The studies show that laughter is important for us to keep healthy. And it’s free and has no bad effect. Many doctors today encourage patients to laugh. Some hospitals even have comedy rooms with TV comedy channels. And they believe the best way to live a long, happy, healthy life is to have a good diet,exercise regularly and add in a few laughs every day.
