　　If you tell a woman a joke and get a blank look，don't immediately despair. She's just taking her time to understand it. But if the joke does eventually make her laugh it will be worth the wait.

　　Scientists have found that while women are slower than men at getting jokes，they enjoy them more.

　　Research shows that women use their brain more than men to process quips(妙语)and have less expectation that they will be funny. When a joke does hit the right note，however，they derive(得到)more pleasure from it.

　　Scientists asked ten men and ten women to look at dozens of black and white cartoons and rate them on a “funniness scale”．

　　During the process they underwent sophisticated(复杂) scans that mapped which parts of their brain were lighting up and timed how long it took them to respond to a joke. The_women_tended_to_use_certain_parts_of_their_brain_more_than_the_men.
