Doing the exerciseNow
23、you are going to do the exercise No. 1 on page 22. III.Guided SpeakingThink of funny stories in English and telll them to your group mates.IV.Guided WritingLearn to write jokesThere are two main parts to the structure of a joke. The first prepares you for the laugh by telling a story which creates a
24、 sense of expectation. The second part of the joke, the punch line, provokes laughter by telling an unexpected and different story, yet one which is still compatible with the first, as in this example: My wife just ran off with my best friend. Boy, do I miss him. and I had a mud pack facial done, an
25、d for three days my face looked much better. Then the mud fell off. Notice the assumption that is made in both these examples. In the first, you assume the person telling the story is angry with his wife, so the punch line surprises you because hes feeling something different and unexpected. Again,
26、in the second example, youd most likely assume the mud had been removed, leaving the face looking better, so the punch line takes you by surprise. So, to write jokes you need to practice reading statements and writing down the asumptions you make about them. You must be able to interpret the stateme
27、nt (first story line) in at least two different ways in order to provide the second, different story i.e. the punch line. And what to write about? Anything that interests you. Anything you have strong opinions about. Now write down your own jokes, in English. IV. Closing down by actingTo end this pe
