You can read them to your partner. And let your partner see if there is any mistake in your reading. At last, I'll ask five students to read them before class to see who can speak faster without making mistakes, OK? let's begin.

Please read the other two requirements to see what you will have to do after you finish listening.(After a few minutes.)Do you know about the things you'll do? During the period when you listen to the tape, I'll play it three times in all. When I play it for the first time, just listen. When I play it for the second time, do the exercises and you can check your answers to make sure they are right when I play the tape for the third time. Then check your answers with your classmates and tell your partner the story. Note that the beginning of the story has been given to you on Page 39.(At last, the teacher shows the pictures in the right order and the answers of Part 2 on the screen to get all the students to check and then asks a student to tell the story to the whole class.)

Part 3 Speaking

T: Now let's do speaking. First, please read a dialogue between a journalist(j)and a comedian(c).

T:(After students read the dialogue)What's the most important thing in a comedian's job?

SA: The important thing in a comedian's job is not only to make people laugh, but also to get them to think about life.

T: How many ways to make people laugh are given? What are they? What other examples can you give?

SB: Two ways are given. They are Jokes about speaking a foreign language and the way someone walks and talks. Other examples are their make-up, the styles of their clothes, shoes and the way they hear something or see something etc.

T: Please make a dialogue yourself. Pair work. One acts as the part of a journalist(j)and your partner acts as a circus clown(c).The dialogue you make should include the questions on Page 40.And you can use the expressions on the screen to help you.(Show the book.)Later, we'll ask one pair to give us a performance. Let's begin.

Part 4 Reading

Step1. Pre-reading

1. Please turn to Page 40 and read the instructions in Pre-reading. Have a discussion with your partner and make preparations for the questions.

Pic.1: Laurel and Hardy, funny, fat-thin, clever-silly.

2. How can clowns help people?

3. What is sketch?

Step3. Reading

Please read the text again and discuss the questions in Post reading. Pair work or group work, ask some students to give their answers.

Answers:

1.The text tells us that dating back to the Qin Dynasty, the traditional cross talk shows, or xiangsheng shows, have made people all over China roar with laughter for centuries. That's to say, it exists in China for more than two thousand four hundred years.

2. When the writers of comedies write in order to make people laugh, they often let cross-dressing men and women appear on the stage or have characters that are stereotypes coming different countries or people doing certain jobs. They also play on words to create fun.

3. Because the words used by the comedies then have the different meaning now, so they can't be understood even by native Englishmen.

4. A clown often appears on the stage alone or with a partner. Usually they don't say anything. They make people laugh only by their clothes, make up and the movements of the body. Even they walk, eat and sleep in a different way from a normal person.

5. I think it is more like a comedy than the show of a clown. Because the way they make people laugh is not like the show of a clown, but like the actors in a comedy. They both use word play.

6. They both use the same techniques to make the audiences laugh, such as strange-dressing men or women, characters from different places the words that make people laugh, as well as their strange accents. Though both western and Chinese comedians use the same techniques, the techniques they use are closer to their own people, such as the style of their clothes, the food they eat, the scene in a comedy and so on.
