Discussion1. What does humour mean? Is humour always kind? What’s behind fun?
Not all humour is kind. Although we also laugh when we see someone slide on a banana skin, it’s really dangerous to those who slide on the banana skin, especially to those old people. So when we think about it we will find it’s not funny.1.One should love animals. They are so tasty.
每个人都应该热爱动物,因为它们很好吃.

The Little Tramp, The Gold Rush

Can you guess what will be talked about in the passage?What was Chaplin’s appearance like in The Little
Tramp? (paragraph 2)He played …person, who wore…, …shoes and a … and carried… a walking sticka small black hatworn-out shoeslarge trousersastonish us

Some humour is unkind. Although we also laugh when we
see someone slide on a banana skin, it’s really dangerous to
those who slide on the banana skin. So when we think about
it we will find it’s not funny. While some is inspiring like that
of Charlie Chaplin, which may encourage people to overcome
difficulty.
