More jokes

Patient: Doctor. I’ve lost my memory.

Anisha: Thank you doctor. My fever is

gone.

A man with two red ears went to see his

doctor.

Doctor: What happened to your ears?

Doctor: Oh, dear! But what happened

to your other ear?

Man: The scoundrel(恶棍)called back!

Speaking on P23

S1: This is my joke. (without smiling) “When is a door not a door?”

S2: I don’t know. When is a door not a door?

Sample dialogue:

S1: When it’s a jar. (laughs)

S2: Why is that funny?

S1: It is a play on words. A door is a jar when it is slightly open. A jar is a sort of jug. That is what makes it funny!

S2: Oh, I see! Well, you did not say it in a very funny way.

S1: What should I do? Was I too serious? Did I smile when I shouldn’t?

S2: You looked serious. That was good but you looked too serious. You should have a little sparkle in your eye to show me that a joke is coming. You could also smile a little (with your lips perhaps).

S1: OK. Shall I try it again? Let me see if you find it funny this time.

S2: Yes. When you are ready, you can begin again.

Sample dialogue:

BAI PIN: What do you find funny? I enjoy Mr Bean because he makes such wonderful faces as he does stupid things.

WEI YUN: I’m not surprised you like Mr Bean because all my family are crazy about him and cannot get enough of his programmes.

BAI PIN: We enjoy this kind of humour because my father loves Charlie Chaplin films. When he sees his stick and hat and that funny walk, he is always in fits of laughter.

WEI YUN: What I like best is the problems Mr Bean has with everyday situations—like changing his clothes on the beach. I remember that one very well.

BAI PIN: Yes. I know that one. It reminded me when I stayed in England and I watched everybody try to change into their swimming costume, under a towel. It’s good that we both enjoyed that!
