I can do things that most people dont get to do. For example, when I perform at company parties, I can scold（ ） the managers. I can forbid（ ） them from giving people too much work, ask for longer lunch breaks or even advise them on their fashion sense I usually give them my big pink wig.

Everyone was laughing except him and thats no good.III. Listen to the interview and fill in the chart. Interviewer: Do they teach any courses in humour for those in the medical health profession? Dr Fry: Doctors have a difficult time in using humour with patients because they dont want the patients to think theyre fooling around. A doctor is a serious person in the patients life but it is very valuable for a doctor to be friendly and light-hearted and to show humour from time to time. In other words, doctors need to achieve a balance between being an authority figure and being a friendly human being. Interviewer: What is a “human campaign”? How can you start one in a hospital? Dr. Fry: There are many humour campaigns in hospitals in the US, Canada, Britain and in other countries. In the US, they can include humour rooms, humour TV channels, clowns some are actually hospital staff, and visitors who provide programmes to patients on a scheduled basis.
