What is special about this clown’s job
This clown works in a hospital or other health care facilities. His job is to comfort, entertain and cheer up patients, their families as well as the hospital staff.
Hospital clowning is also known as “clown care”. Specially trained clowns visit health care facilities and use magic tricks, music, storytelling and other clowning skills to entertain patients and make the hospital feel more welcoming.
The first clown doctor began working in the hospital in the 1970s in the US and now there are clown doctor programmes in many countries.

What is your understanding of the saying “laughter is the best medicine” Do you agree with it Why
Read for deep thinking
Data: Studies have shown that laughter can boost faith in defeating a disease because when people laugh, the body releases endorphins(内啡肽) to relieve pain, dopamine(多巴胺) to increase blood flow, and strengthens the heart.
Warrant: When medical professionals have done what they can to cure the patient, laughter can help comfort patients and give them faith.
Claim: Although laughter may not be a good medicine to cure a disease, it’s surely the best medicine for giving people hope and optimism in stress and desperation.
How could you reword the responsibilities description of the clown doctor so that you can use them in writing a notice
4 Visiting hospitals and other health care facilities, we clown doctors work together with medical professionals. On a typical day, we spend our time cheering up patients, their families, and more often than not, the hospital staff, too! We do this by doing magic tricks, singing songs, telling stories and, of course, telling silly jokes. Some children, though, don’t feel like laughing, especially if they’re in pain. We have to be very sensitive and work closely with the doctors and nurses, who keep us updated on each patient.
Possible sentence patterns
You are expected/supposed to visit hospitals and other health-facilities on a weekly-basis.
We highly appreciate your ability to entertain young patients who are feeling nervous.
Sensitivity is what we value a lot because it can make you aware of the needs of patients, their families and the hospital staff.
