or placent； it is time； I believe； to be deeply concerned。 He who closes his ears to the views of others shows little confidence in the integrity of his own views。
There can be no question with regard to the inherent rights of Americans to enjoy equal economic opportunity in every field； to secure decent living conditions； adequate provision for the moral and spiritual development of their children； and free association with their fellow men as equals under the law and equals in the sight of God。 These rights can be safeguarded and advanced only where men may think and speak freely。 I reject a fundamental principle of democracy if I seek to prevent a fellow citizen of different background from fully expressing his thoughts on any subject。 I have tried to express a few of my own thoughts on this subject which is very close to me。 I think that we will have good reason for optimism about the future of the American ideal as long as men can and will say； without fear； what they believe。

笑吧，老师们，笑吧（1）
格伦·沃尔特
教育是一件很重要的事情，我们不能过于严肃地对待。当人们太过认真地对待某事时，他们就好像戴上了眼罩，甚至会错过周围事物的某些重要方面。他们逐渐变得“视野狭窄”，限制并扭曲了他们对现实的理解。教育很重要，我们不能被那些戴着眼罩或视野狭窄的人所控制。
我认为责任制放纵了许多教育家，他们将教育搞得过于认真。这样做会导致标准考试分数的重要性超过孩子，课程计划的重要性超过老师。我们戴上了眼罩，只看到孩子身上的一小部分——容易测试的那一部分——不能全面地看待孩子。只有整体地观察一个学生，我们才能明白他是否喜欢学习，是否能与其他孩子很好地交往，自我感觉是否良好。
我们如何才能摘掉眼罩？如何才能扩展视野，看到孩子的整体情况？如何才能不过分认真地对待每一件事？我的建议很简单——笑吧，老师们，笑吧！
心理学家一直认为消极情绪会引发人类体内的负面化学变化。反过来也是正确的。我们知道，一个有幽默感的人，体质复原的能力也会很强。事实上，笑可以放松肌肉，减缓心脏跳动，还可以降血压。笑可以带动身体内部发生变化，使内分泌系统活动起来，这对减轻病痛大有裨益。笑还可以消除烦躁、压力、愧疚、消极、头痛和背痛。
每次当你轻声而笑或大笑的时候，大脑会释放出体内自然的减轻痛苦的荷尔蒙，那些荷尔蒙会引起内啡肽的分泌，这是一种可以缓解疼痛的天然麻醉剂。这些相同的荷尔蒙可以使眼睛光亮有神，提高大脑的工作效率。笑可以让人放松。当你的身体舒畅时，视野会开阔，就可以看到曾经错过的东西了。
快乐与自尊密不可分。在任何时候，笑都可以帮助你建立自信，因为你知道，你能够用微笑来面对每天的挫败，而不是啼哭。
笑是一种很好的身体运动，可以锻炼心脏，促进血液循环，排除肺内的过量空气。最近的研究表明，一次捧腹大笑，会给身体带来一次小小的锻炼，这其实是在燃烧热量。
在视野狭窄的压力下，老师和学生都会感到过度紧张。但是笑可以预防像焦耳·古德曼博士所说的那种“态度僵化”。他还说，如果你在面对压力时表现僵硬，就会很容易失控。如果你精神灵活，那么当生活给你重击时，你就可以从容应对。每个人的弓都需要有规律地松弛，不然会因损坏而毫无用处。笑就可以缓解我们的弓。
笑可以缓解压力，这样就会有更多的时间和精力来进行学习和创作。老师和学生也会感到自由，鼓励发散思维和创造力。
不单是教育，我们生活的各个方面，如工作、学习、科研都需要这种缓解压力的法宝——笑。它可以放松身心，缓解压力，让我们有更多的时间和精力，高效地工作和学习。更重要的是，让我们用微笑来面对每天的挫败，而不是啼哭。
Laugh； Teacher； Laugh
Glen Walter
Education is too important to take seriously。 When people take anything too seriously； they put on blinders which cause them to miss the important aspects of what is going on around them。 They develop “tunnel vision” which limits and distorts their perception of reality。 Education is too important to be limited by those who have chosen to wear blinders1 and develop tunnel vision。
I believe the accountability movement has encouraged many educators to take education too seriously。 When we take education too seriously； we put standardized test scores above children； we put lesson plans above teachers； and we put on our blinders； only to see a rather small segment of the child—that segment that can be measured easy—rather than looking at the child as a whole。 By looking at the whole student； we can get a sense of whether that student enjoys learning is functioning well with others； and feels good about himself。
笑吧，老师们，笑吧（2）
How can we take off our blinders？ How can we eliminate tunnel vision to see the whole child？ How can we not take everything so seriously？ My remendation is simple—laugh； teachers； laugh！
Psychologists have long believed that negative emotions cause negative chemical changes in the body。 We know the opposite is also true。 We know that a person with a good sense of humor has better healing qualities。 Laughter actually relaxes the muscles； slows the heartbeat； and lowers blood pressure。 Laugher stirs the inside and gets the endocrine2 system moving； which can be quite beneficial in alleviating disease。 Laughter also relieves boredom； tension； guilt； depression； headaches； and backaches。
Each time you chuckle or “crack up”； your brain releases the body’s natural pain…killing hormones。 Those hormones trigger the release of endorphines； natural opiates that can reduce pain。 These same hormones are responsible for making the eyes sparkle and getting the brain to work more eriectively。 Laughter can produce a great deal of relaxation。 When your body is relaxed； the vista broadens； and you can see things you were missing before。
Happiness and self…esteem are closely related。 Laughter will help you build your self…confidence at any given moment because you know that you can laugh rather than cry at daily frustrations。
Laughter is good general physical exercise。 It exercises the heart； improves circulation； and gets rid of excess air in the lungs。 Recent studies have shown that a good laugh provides a mini…workout for the body that actually burns up calories3。
Both teachers and students experience a great deal of stress while under the pressure of tunnel vision。 By the use of laughter； we prevent what Dr。 Joel Goodman calls “hardening of the attitudes。” He continues to say； “If you stand rigidly in the face of stress； you are much more easily knocked off balance。 If you are flexible mentally； you are in a much better position to roll with the punches that life throws you。” Everyone’s bow needs to be unstrung periodically； or it will bee useless。 Laughter unstrings our bow。
With the reduction of stress through laughter； there is more time and energy left to learn and create。 The teacher and students feel a freedom that encourages divergent thinking and creativity。
