Unit 20 Humour
Ⅰ.Teaching Goals:
1.Talk about humour and comedians.
2.Practise saying tongue twisters.
3.Express intentions and plans.
4.Use the-ing form(1)as the Attribute and Object Complement.
5.Write a funny story or joke in English.
Ⅱ.Teaching Time:
Four periods
Ⅲ.Background Information:
One word or phrase may have two or more meanings;words or phrases which have different meanings may have the same or similar sounds.Words or phrases like these may sometimes cause confusion or ambiguity,but they also make it possible to joke or play on words for a humorous effect.
For some reason English has one of the largest collections of jokes based on plays on words.These jokes are often in the form of a dialogue in which one person uses a word in one sense,which the other person understands it or deliberately interpretes it in a different sense.Here are some examples of the humorous dialogues.
1.Policeman:You can’t park hero.
Driver:Why not?
Policeman:Read that sign.
Driver:I did.It says,“Fine for parking”,so I parked.
2.A:Where do you wash?
B:In the spring.
A:I didn’t ask when,I asked you where.
3.Diana:How long will the next bus be?
Charles:Oh,almost 45 feet.
4.Dick:My aunt has 88 keys.
Tracy:She must have a lot of doors.
Dick:She doesn’t.She plays the piano.
5.Customer:Is there any soup on the menu?
Waiter:There was,but I wiped it off.
6.Dick:Where are we eat tonight?
Nick:Let’s eat up the street.
Dick:Let’s not.I don’t like concrete.
7.Professor:Name two pronouns.
Student:Who,me?
8.Teacher:Jimmy,what are the three words that students use most often at school?
Jimmy:I don’t know….
Teacher:Correct.
Plays on words can also be in the form of a riddle.And some riddles are plays on compound words.A compound word consists of two or more pants,and the pants do not have the same meaning as they have when they are used separately,though they may keep their original sound.Here are some examples:
(1)I work only when I’m fired.What am I ?(A rocket.)
(2)I have teeth,but no mouth.What am I?(A comb.)
(3)I have a mouth,but no teeth,what am I?(A river.)
(4)Why does a river sleep a lot?(Because it is always in a bed.)
(5)Why does a river have a lot of money?(Because it has two banks.)
(6)If you throw a white stone into Red Sea,what will it become?(Wet.)
(7)What can you see with your eyes shut?(A dream.)
(8)Which runs faster,heat or cold?Why?(Heat.Because you can catch cold.)
(9)I have cities but no houses;forests but no trees;rivers without water.What am I?(A map.)
(10)What letter are people the most afraid of?(E.Because it’s the end of “life”.)
(11)What kind of driver never needs a license?(A screwdriver.)
(12)What kind of a nail should you not hit with a hammer?(Your fingernail.)
Some jokes are based on words which have the same sound but different meanings and spellings.Jokes of this kind is better heard,not seen.When they are written or printed,the humor is largely lost.For example:
Seven days without water makes one weak (week).
We must all hang together or we shall all hang separately.

SA:(Standing up)I'll try.(SA begins to read.)(After the student finishes reading teacher points out the students' mistakes in pronunciation and stress if there is any.Then teacher plays the tape-recorder to let the students listen and follow.)
T:So much for the new words and expressions.Please turn to Page 40 and read the instructions in Pre-reading.Have a discussion with your partner and make preparations for the questions.(Teacher shows the pictures on the screen.After five minutes.)
T:Are you ready?(Ss:Yes,we are ready.)Look at the photos.Do you know who the first comedian is?
SB:He is Chaplin and he was born in Britain.He began to act when he was five.When he was seventeen,he went to the United States.During his lifetime,he wrote,acted and directed many films.I read this from a magazine sometime two weeks ago.
T:Do you know what makes him funny?
SB:His own manner of acting.Even his way of walking down the street,eating and turning a corner is different from other's.I saw several of his films.
T:What about the second picture?
SC:He is Zhao Benshan and is from Northeast.We often see him act on TV.He is a famous actor and every one of us likes him.
T:Do you know examples of other comedians who are funny in the same way?
SD:Yes.In our country,Wang Jingyu is a comedian,who is almost in the same way as Charlie Chaplin.I saw several of his programmes.There are many other comedies like Zhao Benshan,such as Pan Changjiang and Chen Peisi.They often appear on the stage or TV.I think comedians not only are actors but also artists.They make our life colourful,make people laugh as well as get all of us educated by their acting.
SE:3.Yes.I think comedians play an important rolein our life.Laughter and humour are important parts.Just think what our world would be without humourous TV programmes,films etc.That's terrible.

(Teacher shows the screen.)

2.How can clowns help people?
3.What is sketch?
(Teacher goes among the students and collects the first five pieces of answers.)
T:(After all the students finish.)Who can give us the first answer?
Sf:They sound funny speaking with a foreign accent.
T:The second question?
Sg:They can help people relax and forget their problems for at least a short moment.
T:What is sketch?
SH:Comedian may act out a situation during their show and we call that a sketch.

T:You have done very well.Now please read the text again and discuss the questions in Post reading.Pair work or group work.I'll ask some students to give us their answers in a minute.(Teacher goes among the students and joins in the students' discussion.When all the students finish,teacher says the following.)
T:Have you finished?(Ss:Yes.)Who will give us the answers?Volunteers?
Sa:1.The text tells us that dating back to the Qin Dynasty,the traditional cross talk shows,or Xiang Sheng shows,have made people all over China roar with laughter for centuries.That's to say,it exists in China for more than two thousand four hundred years.
Sb:2.When the writers of comedies write in order to make people laugh,they often let cross-dressing men and women appear on the stage or have characters that are stereotypes coming different countries or people doing certain jobs.They also play on words to create fun.
Sc:American comedians speak with a foreign accent.
Sd:3.Because the words used by the comedies then have the different meaning now,so they can't be understood even by native Englishmen.
Se:4.Aclown often appears on the stage alone or with a partner.Usually they don't say anything.They make people laugh only by their clothes,make up and the movements of the body.Even they walk,eat and sleep in a different way from a normal person.
Sf:5.I think it is more like a comedy than the show of a clown.Because the way they make people laugh is not like the show of a clown,but like the actors in a comedy.They both use word play.
Sg:6.They both use the same techniques to make the audiences laugh,such as strange-dressing men or women,characters from different places the words that make people laugh,as well as their strange accents.Though both western and Chinese comedians use the same techniques,the techniques they use are closer to their own people,such as the style of their clothes,the food they eat,the scene in a comedy and so on.
T:You've done well.Now let's have some students act how people from different countries walk,talk and behave.
(Students act.)
T:Now look at the screen.I'll give you some further explanations for some new words and expressions.
Notes:
a.character:a person in a book,play etc.
b.make fun of:to laugh or cause others to laugh rather unkindly.
e.g.People make fun of her because she wears such a strange hat.
c.play on words:use amusingly a word or phrase that has two meanings,or words having the same sound but different meanings.
d.in common:in shared possession
e.g.The four boys grew up together and have a lot in common.
e.applaud:to praise(a play,actor…)
especially by striking one's hands together
f.appreciate:to understand and enjoy the good qualities of
T:Please read the text again and see if you have anything you don't understand.(Teacher goes among the students and answers any questions raised by the students.)
Step Ⅴ.Listening and Reading Aloud
T:Now let's listen to the tape.I'll play the tape recorder twice.The first time I play it,listen carefully.When I play it for the second time,please listen and follow it.Then you read it aloud.Are you clear?
Ss:Yes.
(Teacher goes among the students and corrects the mistakes the students make in pronunciation and intonation.)

一、异域风情
1.Charlie Chaplin
Charlie Chaplin was born on April 16,1889 in London.His father was an entertainer and although not one of the big names.He was doing very well.His mother Hannah was also an entertainer,a wonderful mimic.She had a sweet,charming voice.While they were not rich,the music hall provided the Chaplins with a comfortable living.
Unfortunately,happy life didn't last long.Father's alcoholism was slowly,but surely destroying his marriage.Finally it ended in divorce,but Hannah was strong.Without her,Charlie Chaplin would have become just one more child lost in the poverty of Victorian London.Somehow she managed to keep Charlie and his brother Sydney clean,warm and clothed.She would sit at the window watching the passers-by and guess their characters from the way they looked and behaved,making up stories to delight Charlie and Sydney.Charlie took in her skills and went on using them all his life.
Charlie had always believed,even in the worst times,that was something special locked away inside him.He took his courage and went to see one of the top theatrical agents.With no experience at all,he was being offered the little part of Billy——the pageboy in a new production of Sherlock Holmes opened on July 27,1903 at the enormous Pavilion Theatre.Charlie seemed to change overnight.It was as if he had found the thing he was meant to do.
In 1910,when karno set off on its yearly American tour,one of the best pantomine artists had ever seen him.They had reached Philadelphia when a telegram arrived and Charlie was offered the chance to replace a star in the keystone film company.
Cinema was born in the same year as Charlie thought people still believed it was a passing fad,and would never replace live shows.He was kept hanging about for several weeks and he used the time to watch and to learn.He was determined to master this new medium.It offered him the chance of money and success—and it would set him free from the noises of live audience.
Charlie's first film,shown in February 1914 was called “Making a living”.Though it didn't satisfy Charlie,the public liked it.After that he had made ten films and he had learned a lot.The public loved him and distributors were demanding more and more.Chaplin films.In an incredibly short time,Charlie had become a very important man is motion picture…
2.About Jokes
What is it that makes people laugh?More than two thousand years ago the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle defined humous as the pleasure that results from a feeling of triumph by showing we're better than someone else in a certain way.According to Aristotle and many other philosophers,all jokes depend mainly on showing inferiority in another person or group of persons—that is,putting it clearly,on showing that they are not as good as we are.Jokes raise our good opinion of ourselves chiefly someone else's expense.
By showing how much better than other people we are is only one reason we like jokes.Someone may also use a joke to express their anger or their cruelty or any other kind of action that is not acceptable to us.We feel free to laugh when we hear about someone slipping on a banana skin.The joke lets us express those attitudes which are usually unacceptable to society.This is probably the reason why some of the jokes,especially those involving cruelty or sex,are so poplular with certain people.
In addition,all jokes depend on our enjoy ment of laughing at something that is strange and out of place because it's different from things which are happening around it.The same situation can be either sad or pleasant,depending entirely on how strange and out of place it is.If a girl in a bathing-dress falls into a swimming pool,we don't laugh because nothing unusual has happened.But if a man in smart suit falls in,the situation is at once unusual in a pleasant way and we laugh.A good joke-teller will always try to build up a situation in which one thing is expected until something unexpected suddenly happdened,and so we laugh.

三、词语辨析
(一)kind,sort,type
1.汉语中的“种”“类”意思相近而又有区别。英语中也一样,kind,sort,type等用法相同又有区别。总的来说,kind和sort用法是相同的,只是kind较正式,sort则多用于口语和商业用语,另外,sort有时含有轻蔑的意味。type则指更为具体的东西,译为“类型、型号、样式”。
Do you know what type of blood is yours?
你知道你的血型吗?
常见的表示种类的词组有:a kind/sort of,this kind of,that kind of,all kinds of,many kinds of,different kinds of,various kinds of,等;of后面的名词多用单数,且不用冠词。如:a kind of flower,all kinds of bamboo.
2.说某一种类的东西常用of a kind的结构。
They are all of a kind,I like roses of this kind.
3.问种类常见的方法是:
What kind/sort of book do you like?
你喜欢哪类书?
What kind/sort of man is he?

4.sort含有轻蔑的意味。如:
How did you get this sort of idea into your head?
你怎么想出这种主意来呢?
I'll do nothing of this sort.

Her beauty was of another type.
她的美丽是另一种风格的。
(二)make fun of,play a joke on,laugh at,make fun of意思是“取笑,嘲弄某人”;
play a joke on sb.意思是“开某人玩笑、戏弄某人”;
laugh at sb.意思是“讥笑、讽刺某人”。
It's wrong to make fun of the blind.
取笑盲人是不对的。

我们不应捉弄残疾人。
Many scientists laughed at it.But Einstein stuck to his theory and went on with his research.
许多科学家嘲笑这个理论,但是爱因斯坦坚持他的理论,继续从事他的研究。
(三)be famous for,be famous as
这一对短语都表示“以……而出(著名)”,但含义与用法有区别。
(1)当主语是表示人的名词时,be famous for表示“以某种知识、技能、作品或特征而出名”,而be famous as则表示“以某种身份而出名”。
He is famous for his great inventions.

五、高考真题
1.(2001年上海春季)__________is no possibility__________Bob can win the first prize in the match.
A.There;that  B.It;that
C.There;whether D.It;whether
简析:选A。此题考查There be和It be结构以及同位语从句的辨析。possibility后面部分表示它的内容,所以我们应理解为that引导的同位语从句。
2.(2000 上海)The__________boy was last seen__________near the East Lake.
A.missing;playing B.missing;play
C.missed;played D.missed;to play
简析:选A。本题第一空应用missing做定语,表示“丢失的”意思,第二空考查动词-ing形式作宾补的用法,在feel,find,get,have,see等动词之后,常接sb.+doing结构。
3.(NMET 2002)The managers discussed the plan that they would like to see__________the next year.
A.carry out B.carring out
C.carried out D.to carry out
简析:选C。本题考查动词-ing形式和-ed形式作宾补的区别。宾补用现在分词和宾语是主动关系;过去分词和宾语是被动关系,此处宾语为that,即the plan和carry out是被动关系。
4.(NMET 2003)A cook will be immediately fired if he is found__________in the kitchen.
A.smoke B.smoking
C.to smoke D.smoked
简析:选B。解释同第2题。
