Why do we yawn（打哈欠）? This strange thing people do when they feel tired or bored is actually something mysterious. Yawning can be unbelievably easy to“catch”-when you see other people yawning， you may often find yourself wanting to yawn， too. Even reading about yawning can make you yawn.
Andrew Gallup， who works at State University of New York Polytechnic Institute in the US is a yawn expert. According to him， a natural yawn has nothing to do with raising oxygen levels. Instead， it may help increase alertness（警觉） and seems to be caused by rises in brain temperature.
Contagious（传染的） yawns are different. One study from Baylor University in the US suggested that catching a yawn is all about empathy-the ability to feel the emotions of others. The study showed that people who struggle to empathize with others are less likely to find a yawn contagious.
It’s not just humans who yawn， though. Scientists have also studied the behavior in animals. A study of lions in South Africa found that after yawning， lions would move with each other in time. This shows that an open mouth could be a way for the big cats to feel each other’s feelings， which is particularly important for highly social animals such as lions.
Gallup says that yawning might have developed to keep groups of humans safe. By imitating each other， people may actually increase the awareness of a group as a whole when they yawn. A person’s opening mouth wide signals that he is not feeling alert. Seeing that person yawning might therefore cause an observer to pay more attention. As the yawns spread， they would increase the group’s awareness of danger.
Gallup conducted a study to test this theory. He showed a number of people pictures of snakes which are seen as a threat， and frogs which are not， before and after they had watched a video（视频） of others yawning. While watching the video didn’t affect their ability to spot the non-threatening frogs， they were much better at spotting the threatening snakes after watching others yawn.
