I am going to fulfill
my promise about posting my revision in my first paraphrase assignment. This is
it:
After reading the
source, I write the important points:
- laughter, lasting benefits, laughing stops, muscles are more relaxed, relieves some kinds of headaches, heartbeat and blood pressure, dip below normal, a sign of reduced stress, be related to longevity, through the reduction of stress and hypertension.
Raw paraphrase
Laughter leads us to
three long term advantages. First, it can cure some kinds of headaches because
when it stops, it relaxes muscles. Then, it reduces stress by lowering
heartbeat and blood pressure to several points below normal. Finally, it may
relate to longer lifespan because of decrease in stress and abnormally high
blood pressure.
Final result
Lyons and Courter
(1984:6) says that laughter leads us to three long term advantages. First, it
can cure some kinds of headaches because when it stops, it relaxes muscles.
Then, it reduces stress by lowering heartbeat and blood pressure to several
points below normal. Finally, it relates to longer lifespan because of the
decrease in stress and abnormally high blood pressure.
All right, I hope
that this post can be a good example of a paraphrase.
