Jokes are things that we say to make other people laugh. Sometimes a joke is just a short sentence, while other times it can be a story that can take a while to tell. An example of a simple joke is:
Q:Why do birds fly south? A:Because it's too far to walk. |
People who tell jokes are welcomed everywhere bacause everyone likes hearing a good joke. Here is another example of a jokes:
Q:Why do hummingbirds hum(嗡嗡叫)? A:Because they don't know the words. |
We say a joke is “corny” if it is stupid. An example of a corny joke is:
Q:Why did the chicken cross the road? A:To get to the other side. |
But some people may think a corny joke actually a good joke. Telling a good joke depends not only on the joke itself but also on the way it is told. Some people have a skill for telling jokes. And some people simply do not know how to tell jokes. Every language and culture has its own funny jokes. As a result, many jokes lose their humor if they are translated into a different language. Some jokes depend on making fun of other people to be funny. However, these jokes may hurt people's feelings.
Sometimes jokes are told about certain races and religions (宗教). These are called “racial” and “religious” jokes, and they can be burning people, too. Jokes about the supposed special things of the members of one sex are sometimes considered to be “sexist (性别歧视的) rubbish”. Jokes that hurt people's feelings are not really funny.
Have you heard a good joke lately? Can you tell your classmates one that will make them laugh?
