Step Welcome to the unitT: Laughter is a great thing thats why weve all heard the saying, “Laughter is the best medicine.” Everyone loves to laugh. But each of us may have a unique way to have fun and may also have some favorite comedian. Now look at the four posters and discuss the following three questions.Show the four posters in Welcome to the unit and ask students to talk about them. Several minutes later ask students to present their discussion. Different opinions are welcome. The most important thing is that everyone gets involved in the discussion.Suggested answers:1. I think a comedy about life in the circus (Picture 4) will be the funniest. The clowns in the circus look very funny and they use body languages. Body language is a universal language and very easy to understand. So no matter what language you speak, where you come from, young or old, their performances will make you laugh.2. Mr. Bean is my favorite comedian. He has a complete ignorance of how to do many simple tasks, but is also incredibly creative and usually can come up with a solution to any problem that a smarter man would never think of. He rarely talks. He uses body movement and facial expressions to make people laugh. Even if you dont speak English, you can understand the humor easily.3. Fun is vital if we want to survive and make our lives more meaningful. Fun is invaluable for living with joy, passion, creativity. In a word funny things make people laugh. Laughter is good for people.T: Thanks for your answers. Now who would like to tell me how to put more laughter in our life?S1: Read funny stories and books.S2: Watch funny movies.T: Good. Thank you very much. Here Ive got some tips for you. Please look at the tips and lets read them together. Show the tips to the students.Here are some tips to help you put more laughter in your life: Figure out what makes you laugh and do it (or read it or watch it) more often. Surround yourself with funny people be with them every chance you get. Develop your own sense of humor. Maybe even take a class to learn how to be a better comic or at least a better joke-teller.

When she explained to her family that this would be going on for several semesters, her youngest son asked, “Mom, how many pizza nights with Dad is that?”T: How do you like them?Ss: Theyre very funny.T: Yes. But sometimes we Chinese find the western humor very difficult to understand just as foreigners sometimes cannot understand Chinese jokes. In order to understand the western humor better, we will learn something about The British Sense of Humor. Now turn to Page 104. Please read the first two paragraphs quickly and find the answers to the following questions. Three minutes later I will ask you to answer the questions.ScanningShow students the following questions.

Please discuss in groups. Five minutes later, you will be asked to present it.Five minutes later ask some students to outline the text. Then show students the following. Para. 1: How to understand the British humor betterPara. 2: Explanation of understatementPara. 3: Things that the British like to make fun ofPara. 4: A popular comedian Mr. BeanPassage BT: After reading the passage, I think we have a better understanding about British humor. There are many famous people who are also well-known for their sense of humor. Now look at this picture. Who is it?Ss: Ronald Reagan. He was President of the USA.T: He was also well-known for his good sense of humor. Now lets read an online article about his humor. After reading the article, please answer the post reading questions. You may discuss in groups.Five minutes later, ask some students to present their answers to the rest of the class. Then show the suggested answers.Suggested answers:1. Because he was very old, almost 70, when he became President of the USA.2. Because he was shot and it was a matter of life and death, the doctors were very worried. In the doctors eyes, the president was their patient. But he joked that if the doctors didnt support him in the government, the doctors wouldnt try their best to let him live. That sounded very funny.3. In the USA, government officials who do not agree with one another often say unkind things about each other. When Reagan made jokes about other people, no one thought he was unkind. At the same time, he used his humor to persuade the American people to agree with him.4. Reagan used humor when communicating with the public. Before Reagan, presidents didnt often try to be funny. After him, presidents realized that humour was very important for communicating with the public.5. The difference between them is that Reagan could do this naturally while others cannot achieve this as well as he could.Step ExplanationExplain the difficult sentences to help students understand the text better.T: Do you find any sentences difficult to understand?S1: I remember as well as is a set phrase, which means in addition. Then what does it mean in the following sentence: The difference is that Regan could do this naturally, while others cannot achieve this as well as he could.T: Yes, as a set phrase it means in addition. E.g. You cannot expect her to do the housework as well as look after the children. The child is lively as well as healthy. Then lets look at the following sentence:E.g. He can speak French as well as English. How do you understand it?S2: He can speak not only English but also French.S3: He can speak French as well as he speaks English. That is to say He can speak French very well, just as he can speak English well.T: If we translate it into Chinese, you will understand it much better. Who would like to have a try?S4: Please let me have a try.（1）他会说英语，也会说法语。（2）他的法语说得跟英语一样好。T: Well done! Please remember that it can be used in different ways. Here it is used to compare Reagans humor skill with others. This sentence implies that Reagan could use humor much better than others. Do you have any more difficulties?Ss: No.Step SummaryHelp students to sum up what theyve learned about western humor. Students may speak together or the teacher may ask students to speak individually.T: What have we learned in this class?Ss: The British sens
