L29-1：Funny or not?

Whether we find a joke funny or not largely depends on where we have been brought up.

The sense of humour is mysteriously bound up with national characteristics.

A Frenchman, for instance,

might find it hard to laugh at a Russian joke.

In the same way,

a Russian might fail to see anything amusing in a joke which would make an Englishman laugh to tears.

Most funny stories are based on comic situations.

In spite of national differences,

certain funny situations have a universal appeal.

No matter where you live,

you would find it difficult not to laugh at,

say, Charlie Chaplin's early films.

However,

a new type of humour,

which stems largely from the U.S.,

has recently come into fashion.

It is called “sick humour”.

Comedians base their jokes on tragic situation like violent death or serious accidents.

Many people find this sort of joke distasteful. The following example of 'sick humour' will enable you to judge for yourself.

练习感悟：周六  去带娃儿去水天池耍了，那个上面要建别墅，反正我觉得山上还是不方便，最方便的还是虎溪花园，这里已算是郊区，拥有郊外的风景，人稀，地大，随时能看到蔬菜花草树木，森林，爬山。不喜欢人多的地方。珍惜拥有的。很幸福。
