Sample answers 1 I think “Under the Big Top” might be the funniest. In a circus, you can see acrobats, riders, clowns and performing animals. When I was young, whenever I had a chance to watch circus performances, I had a really good laugh. I often wondered hoe clowns could wear such funny expressions and make such exaggerated movements. I was curious about their life and attitudes towards life. Also, trained performing animals are very amusing and can bring me a lot of happiness. 2 My favorite comedian is Song Dandan. She is very talented, versatile and dedicated. As a comedian, she has her own special way of presenting vivid characters on the stage. She can sing, dance, do crosstalk, etc. Once in an interview, she explained her understanding towards her career. According to her, it’s more than making people laugh. It’s about conveying dip meanings of life while entertaining people. I was deeply touched by this. . 3 It is human nature that people like funny things. We need to have something to laugh about, to release our emotions. According to psychologist, people who are often in a bad mood are likely to develop deadly diseases such as cancer. A hearty laugh can cheer people up and help them get rid of negative feelings. Step 4: Homework 1. Read the article in Part A on page 104 and the one in Part B on page 105 in Workbook. 2.

However, he uses his sense of humor to teach people that there are always ways to face problems if you are able to laugh. T: Do you think laughing is good for people’s health? S: Yes. Laughter is a bridge that can lead people to health, happiness and peace. It is a good therapy to help people get rid of bitterness and forget all the problems. T: Today, we’ll learn a passage entitled “Stand-up for your health!” Do you know the meaning of “Stand-up” here? Does it mean you have to stand up to keep healthy?

This section is divided into three steps and each step is preceded with a skills building part. Through listening and reading, you will get information about Chinese crosstalk. You are asked to use the information you have got to write an e-mail to a foreign friend answering his questions about Chinese crosstalk. Skills building 1: identifying priorities In this part, you will learn how to identify the most important part and the least important part of a task. Now look at the sentences on the blackboard. I need to know how many of you will go to watch the play this Saturday. I’ll have to book the tickets. I want to know why you are so interested in the play. I would like to know how you will go to the theatre. Discuss in your groups and decide which one means the most important request and which one is the least important request. And give me your reasons. ( Do not judge whether their answers are right or not directly. Take notes of the reasons beside the sentences on the blackboard.) If you want to know whether your judgment is right or wrong, you can refer to the guideline and the three points in skills building 1 on page 10. Now have you known how to identify the most urgent request? Let’s come back to the sentences on the blackboard and check if you have judged correctly. Step 1: answering questions This part is designed to help you develop your listening skills. You are first asked to take some notes while listening to a telephone message and decide which requests are the most important, somewhat important or the least important, according to what you have learnt in Skills building 1. Then you will listen to an English radio talk show and read a magazine article to get more information needed to find the answers to the questions asked by a foreign friend. 1 read Part A on page 10 to make sure what you are asked to do when listening to the recording. While listening, you should take some notes and pay attention to the words used in Bill’s requests, so you decide what is the most important , somewhat important or the least important. Tapescript Bill: Hi, this is Bill! I’m sorry you are not at home. I need to ask you some questions. My teacher has asked us to write a report about a form of comedy. I want to writhe about Chinese crosstalk. Can you answer my questions about crosstalk and then e-mail me back the answers? I’d appreciate it so much! First, I need to know some basic information about crosstalk: What is crosstalk? When did it start? What are the different parts of a crosstalk performance? I also would like to know where one can hear it or see it. Do you watch it in a theatre or on television, or do you list3n to it in the radio? I want some information about famous crosstalk performers too, both living and dead. Please tell me their names, and if they performed recently or a long time ago. If there are any famous foreign crosstalk performers, then I would like to know about them. The other thing I would like to know about is if it is possible to learn Chinese crosstalk. Do people study it at school? Can I learn it outside of China? Do I need to speak Chinese to enjoy crosstalk? I know I have a lot of questions. I hope it is not a problem for you to answer them. Thank you for your time. I’ll talk to you again soon. Bye! Play the tape again for the students to check. Answers: A 1 most important 2 most important 3 most important 4 least important 5 somewhat important 6 somewhat important 7 somewhat important 8 least important 9 least important 10 least important 11 least important 12 least important 2 Now read the guidelines of Part B on page 11 to know what you should do to finish this part. Then listen to the radio talk show and make corrections. If you are not sure about your answers, I’ll let you listen to it again. Tapescript: Laura: Welcome to “Talking Comedy”, a show where we learn about different forms of comedy around the world. I’m your host, Laura Laughs. Today we’re talking about crosstalk, a traditional form of Chinese comedy. Our guest on the show is Cao Jun, a student who loves Chinese crosstalk. Welcome to the show! Cao Jun: Thanks, it is great to be here! Laura: Can you tell us a little bit about crosstalk? Cao Jun: Of course! Crosstalk began during the Qing Dynasty, over 150 years ago. Performers then traveled between villages and did small comic performances. People liked these small comic performances very much. Eventually, some of the performers became quite famous. For may years, you could turn on the radio at anytime and hear people doing crosstalk in China. Now, the best time to see or heart crosstalk is in television during the Spring Festival. Laura: What happens during a crosstalk performance? Cao Jun: Crosstalk involves talking, imitating, telling jokes and singing. The talking is normally between two performers, who use language in clever ways that make people laugh. There is also a one-person form of crosstalk, and it is also sometimes done by three or more people. Unlike Western stand-up comedy, where comedians tell jokes that are only loosely related, a crosstalk performer tells a whole story. It has a clear beginning, middle and end. Laura: Most of our English audience has never heard about crosstalk, so this is all new to them. Cao Jun: Yes, that is because crosstalk is always done in Chinese. Crosstalk is not performed in English, and you must understand both the Chinese language and Chinese culture to understand the humor in it. Laura: Well, Cao Jun, that is just another reason for people to study Chinese! Cao Jun: Yes, it is. Laura: Thanks for joining us in the show. Cao Jun: My pleasure. I will play the tape again for you to check. Answers: B 2 None of the crosstalk performers became famous. some 3 For many years, you could turn on the TV at any time and find a crosstalk performance. radio 4 A crosstalk performance involves talking, imitating, singing and dancing. telling jokes 5 Crosstalk can be done by two people only. one person, two people, three people or more 6 If you listen to a crosstalk performance, you will hear part of a story. a whole story 7 Crosstalk is sometimes performed in English. never 8 You don not need to understand the Chinese language and Chinese culture to enjoy crosstalk. must 3 Please check the answers that you have got to the questions in Part A to see if there are some questions to which you have not found the answers. Let’s read the article in Part C and underline the answers you need. Answers: C Ding Guangquan, a well-known master of crosstalk (a Chinese comedy form), has been teaching this unique form to foreigners since 1989. The most famous is Canadian Mark Roswell, known in China as Da Shan. Other students are David Moser (Mo Dawei) from the USA and Koiac Korio (Ka Erluo) from Yugoslavia. Skills building 2: asking questions orally In this part, you will practise asking questions orally in various forms and using the correct question words. 1. You need to answer the following questions and I’ll write down your answers on the blackboard. What do we say when we want to ask whether someone knows something or not? (Do you know…?) Are there any other ways we can use to ask the same question? (Could you please tell me if/whether…? Please tell me if/whether….? Would you mind telling me if/whether…?) If we want to know someone’s name, what do we say? (Who is…? Please tell me his/her name.) If we want to know the time or the place that something happened, how will we ask the question? (When/ Where did…? Please tell me when/where…) 2 Read the guidelines in this part and go over the sentence structures listed. Step 2: taking part in a radio talk show This part is designed to have you use what you have learnt in Skills building 2 to practice asking different forms of questions. 1 Read the guidelines and make sure you know what you are going to do in this part. And go over Column A on the right and decide what question words you should use according to the information in this column. You should know that for people’s names, you will use who or what name, that for a place, you should use where or at what place, and that for the year, you should use when or in which year. Are you clear? 2 Now work in pairs to ask and answer questions according to the two columns. You can ask more questions according to other information you have got in Steps 1 and 2. Try to use different ways to ask the same question. Minutes later, I’ll check your answer and see who can ask more questions for one piece of information. Sample answers S1: Do you know the names of the first crosstalk artists? Name one of them. S2: Yes. Zhu Shaowen. S1: Do you know what his stage name is? S2 Qingbupa, or ‘Poor-but-proud’ in English. S1: At what place/ Where did he perform? S2: At Tianqiao, Beijing。 S1: Who is the most important master of crosstalk? S2: Hou Baolin. S1: Can you name one of Hou Baolin’s famous students, please? S2: Yes. Ding Guangquan. S1: What’s the name of the person who comes from a famous crosstalk family? S2: Ma Sanli. His grandfather, father and brother all performed crosstalk. S1: Is Ma Sanli still alive and giving performances now? S2: No, he isn’t. hi is dead. S1: When/In which year did he die? S2: He died in 2003. S1: Will you please name some famous modern cross talkers? S2: Jiang Kun, Feng Gong and Niu Qun. S1: Who do you think is a famous foreign crosstalk performer? S2: Da Shan. He is the most popular foreign cross talker in China. Skills building 3: answering questions in an e-mail In this part, you will learn how to answer questions in an e-mail in an effective way. 1 Read the guidelines and the two points in this part. You will know what you should pay attention to when they use an e-mail to answer questions. 2 Read the sentence structures to know what informal language and formal language you can use to answer questions in e-mails. Do you know when to use informal ways and when to use formal ways to answer questions? You should know that when you write e-mails to your family members or good friends, you usually use informal language. If you write e-mails to someone important or you are applying for a job through e-mails, you should use formal language. Step 3: writing an e-mail This part is designed to have you use the information about Chinese crosstalk in Step1 and 2 and the skills building 1 and 3 to write an e-mail to Bill to answer his questions. 1 Work in pairs to discuss what you should write in the e-mail to Bill. Decide the order of the answers according to the importance of the questions. You should also decide what structure you use to write the e-mail. 2 Please write the e-mail after the discussion. I’ll choose some different styles of e-mails, formal or informal, to help you compare and think about which style you think is better. Possible example Dear Bill, I think I have got enough information about crosstalk and can answer your questions about it. Crosstalk is a traditional form of Chinese comedy, which began during the Qing Dynasty. At that time, performers traveled between villages and did small comic performances. You asked me about different parts of crosstalk performance. It can be done by one person, two people, three people or more, and involves singing, telling jokes and talking. The talking is normally between two performers, who twist their language in way that make people laugh. There is also a one-person form of crosstalk, and it is occasionally done by three or more people. You can hear a whole story if you listen to a crosstalk performance. It has an obvious beginning, middle and end. You wanted to know something about famous crosstalk performers, living and dead. One of the first crosstalk artists was Zhu Shaowen, whose stage name was Qiongbupa, or ‘Poor-but-proud’ in English. The most important master is Hou Baolin, who died in 1993. another one named Ma Sanli was from a famous crosstalk family, whose grandfather, father and brother were all crosstalk performers. He died in 2003. there are quite a few famous crosstalk artists loved by the Chinese people and they are still active on stage, such as Jiang Kun, Feng Gong and Niu Qun. Now there are also some famous foreign crosstalk performers, among whom is Da Shan from Canada. A lot of Chinese know him and like his performance very much. As for where one can here it or see it, we often listen to it on the radio or TV. The best time to see or hear crosstalk is on television during the Spring Festival. You asked if you could learn it outside of China and if you needed to speak Chinese to enjoy crosstalk. You hardly get the chance to learn crosstalk outside of China. And if you want to enjoy it, you must be able to speak Chinese. Now in Beijing, a famous crosstalk master Ding Guangquan gives lessons to foreigners. He was one of Hou Baolin’s students and has been teaching foreigners to perform since 1989. If you want to know more about Chinese crosstalk, just e-mail me. Yours, (student’s own name) 3 Finish the note in part A on page 106 in workbook after listening to the recordings. Then you can complete the article in Part C on the same page. ● Project Putting on a play I General induction This section is designed to help you learn and use English through doing a project. You are first asked to read the two plays in Part A. You should understand what the two plays are about. Then you are encouraged to perform one of the two plays. The purpose of this section is to let you use what you have learnt to finish a project by working together. In the course of doing the project, you will discuss what steps are needed to prepare a play. In order to finish the project, you will discuss what steps are needed to prepare a play. In order to finish the project, you are expected to learn how to cooperate as a team and how to fulfill each part of the work. II Reading Part A 1 Read the first play and try to ask the following questions: Is there a bench in the courtyard? (Actually no) What dies the word ‘invisible’ mean? (It means ‘can’t be seen’) Is this a comedy? Why or why not? (Yes, it is a comedy because it is very funny.) In the reading passage of this unit, we have learnt that there are four main types of stand-up comedy. They are observational, prop, physical and impressionist. In what style of comedy do you think this one is? ( It is in the physical style. Actors use body language to perform the play.) 2 Read the second play and answer the following questions: How many characters are there in the play? Who are they? (Three. The king, the Queen and the servant.) Who do you think is the main character in the play? (The King.) What does the King actually want? (Toilet paper.) Why are the others unable to understand him? (Because he was a king and he says that he wants important papers. The others would mistake them for some official documents.) In what style of stand-up comedy is this play? (It is in the style of prop. Actors use the prop — toilet paper and some other papers to perform the play.) How does the playwright make the play funny? (The playwright uses a play upon words— important paper and toilet paper--- to make people laugh.) 3 Let’s do Parts B1 and B2 on page 101 in Workbook to practice the usages of some words and phrases learnt in this section. 4 Please do Parts D1 and D2 on page 103 in Workbook as your homework. The two exercises will help you be more familiar with the usages of some words, phrases, and patterns learnt in this unit. Part B 1 Now work in groups of four to discuss the eight questions given in this part. While discussing, you should choose one of the two plays to perform. You should also allocate the different tasks among your group members. For example, who will be the actors and actresses? Who will be the director? Who will make the scenery if it is needed? Who will find props? Who will make costumes? You may make a flow chart to help you manage the task. Before perform it, you need to practice a lot. 2 Have each group perform the play. After all the groups have performed their plays, have students decide which group’s performance is the best, and who is the best actor or actress in the class. The awards may also go to the best costume, the best director, etc. 3 Last, read the article in Part A on page 107 in Workbook, and then write a summary. You may do it as your homework.

In part A, some items are presented to you to check how well you think you have developed these skills. Each item corresponds to one or more parts in this unit. For example, after finishing Part E on page 5, you will know whether you can understand the useful words in the reading material and can use them properly. You have the opportunity to evaluate your own skills and abilities in English. The color bar with 5 levels rates how confident you feel about what you have learnt in this unit. If you feel very confident about one item, you give yourselves a score of 5. If you feel slightly confident about another item, you get a score of 2. After going over all the items in this part, you need to add all the scores up and divide the total amount by the total sum. Thus, you will get a percentage, which shows your level. These items cover the main study targets in this unit, including skills in listening, speaking, reading and writing, the usages of vocabulary and grammar items, as well as doing activities in English. Through assessing yourselves as learners, you will realize whether you have achieved the goals in this unit. If you feel there are some areas in which you are not confident or just slightly confident about, you can think about how to improve on them. In part B, you are asked to make an action plan, so you will know what to do and take some effective measures. Part Two Teaching Resources 第二部分教学资源 Section 1 Text structure analysis I. Summary of the text Main idea of the passage A general introduction of stand-up comedy Main idea of Part 1 How many types of stand-up there are. Main idea of Part 2 Introduce a famous comedian---- Billy Crystal. Main idea of Part 3 The effect stand-up and other forms of comedy have on people. II. A tree diagram of the text: III. A retold version of the text Stand-up is one of the most well-know and well-loved types of comedy. In observational comedy, the comedian makes jokes about humorous things he or she observes in everyday life. Prop comedians use props to tell their jokes. Physical comedians use their bodies to make jokes. Impressionist comedians act or speak like a well-known person, which is called doing an impression of the person. Billy crystal is one of the stand-up comedians who have become famous as television and film actors later in life. His popularity with all age groups and his ability to amuse people all over the world prove that stand can be enjoyed by everyone. Doctors have bee researching the effect stand-up and other forms of comedy have on people. They have discovered that people who laugh a lot live longer. This agrees with the English saying ‘Laughter is the best medicine’. IV．Translation of reading and project Reading 有益身心健康的单口喜剧人们从来爱笑，幽默一直存在。有一种非常出名、深受人们喜爱的喜剧形式, 叫做单口喜剧。单口喜剧很特别，因为单口喜剧演员与观众面对面，可以和某些观众直接交谈。单口喜剧演员可以拿某一观众开玩笑，也可以根据观众的反应随机应变，说不同的笑话。单口喜剧的类型单口喜剧有不同的类型，主要有四类：观察评论类、道具类、形体动作类和印象模仿类。在观察评论类单—口喜剧中，演员拿自己在日常生活中所观察到的幽默趣事来讲笑话。如果你听到演员就人们在排队时的行为方式开玩笑，或者演员问为什么偏偏在你忘记带雨伞的时候开始下雨呢，你这时候就是在听一个观察评论类单口喜剧演员在表演。道具类单口喜剧演员借助物品(行话叫道具)来说笑话。如果看不见道具，这类笑话就索然无味了。这是—种视觉幽默。如果演员指着一个电脑网球游戏说：“我每天都打网球，已经—个月了。我就是搞不懂，为什么体重就一点也降不下来呢?”该演员就是在拿电脑作为道具。形体动作类演员运用肢体语言来说笑话。这些演员多年来玩的把戏有：被椅子绊倒，撞到了房门，或者是跌倒在舞台上。最后一种表演方式就是印象模仿类单口喜剧。这类演员的动作或说话方式都像某个名人，也就是针对该名人做印象模仿。一位著名的喜剧演员只有为数不多的单口喜剧演员在随后的生涯中成为走红的影视明星。—个成功的例子就是比利•克里斯托。和其他转向电影表演的单口喜剧演员—样，克里斯托现在依然热爱单口喜剧。全世界的观众都喜爱看他主持的奥斯卡颁奖典礼。他曾主持过八次奥斯卡颁奖典礼。每次主持奥斯卡颁奖典礼的时候，他都会通过电视直播在数百万观众面前表演他的单口喜剧保留节日。这里有一个鲜为人知的事实：每次主持奥斯卡颁奖典礼的时候，克里斯托总要在自己的口袋里放一把牙刷，以此得到幸运!他说，这是因为从小时候开始练习单口喜剧的时候，他就习惯于站在镜子面前，边刷牙边对自己说笑话! 克里斯托之所以如此出名，原因之—就是他有非凡的即兴发挥才能。他思维异常敏捷，特别擅长就身边的人或事即兴编排笑话。当克里斯托主持2004年的奥斯卡颁奖典礼时，期间有一个在无声电影时代就开始表演的老演员上台发言。老演员讲了好几分钟，却忘了先把话筒打开。观众自然没有人能够听见他在说些什么，大家只能看见他站在那里，两片嘴唇动个不停。见此情景，克里斯托干脆放弃了事先准备好的笑话，即兴编了一个笑话。他说： “看来，他不愧是从默片起家的啊!”观众暴笑。克里斯托深受各年龄段人群的喜爱.。他有能力让世人感到开心，这证明，单口喜剧能被所有入欣赏。你可以期待听到比利•克里斯托表演更多的单口喜剧——他尚无停止电影表演的打算，也没有停止讲笑话的想法。他希望效仿鲍勃•霍普和乔治•伯恩斯等单口喜剧明星，这两位著名演员都活到了—百岁，而且生命不息、工作不止。笑，有益健康! 如今，单口喜剧流行全世界。医学工作者一直在研究单口喜剧和其他喜剧形式能够对人们产生什么样的影响。他们发现的结果令人惊讶!医学工作者发现，经常大笑的人长寿!医学工作者说，这是因为你笑的时候，大脑会向全身传送有益健康的化学物质。笑有助于保持身体健康，甚至能够帮助你战胜疼痛。这个说法或许能够解释鲍勃•霍普和乔治•伯恩斯两人长寿的秘诀吧!不管是什么原因，研究表明，英语格言“笑是灵丹妙药”到头来可能真的没错。所以，行动起来，让别人笑—笑——这或许能够有助于他们(以及你自己)长命百岁!
