Funny or not Whether we find a joke funny or not largely depend on where we have been brought up. The sense of humour is mysteriously bound up with national characteristics. A French, for instance, might find of 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 like, 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 America, has recently come into fashion. It is called “sick humour”. Comedians base their jokes on tragic situations like violent death or serous accidents . Many people find this sort of joke distasteful. The following example of “ sick homour” will enable you to judge for yourself. A man who had broken his right leg was taken to hospital a few weeks before Christmas. From the moment he arrived there, he kept on pestering his doctor to tell him when he would be able to go home. He dreaded having to spent Christmas in hospital. Though the doctor did his best, the patient’s recovery was slow. On Christmas day, the man still had right leg in plaster. He spent a miserable day, however, the doctor consoled him that his chances of being able to leave hospital in time for New Year celebrations were good. The man took heart and, sure enough , on New Year’s Eve he was able to hobble along to a party. To compensate for his unpleasant experiences in hospital. The man drank a little more than wa good for him. In the process, he enjoyed himself thoroughly and kept talking everybody how much he hated hospitals . He was still mumbling something about hospital at the end of the party when he slipped on a slipped on a piece of ice and broke his left leg. 61. Why might a Frenchman find it hard to laugh at a Russian joke? A. Because he doesn’t like the Russian people. B. Because he doesn’t understand Russian. C.

Because his films were based on comic situations which had s\a universal appeal C. Because his films were made in English so many people can understand them D.
