(2023·秦皇岛模拟)At a comedy night at Johns Hopkins University in Maryland,members
of the school's comedy club bring lots of laughter to their classmates with funny speeches and
humorous body movements.These college student comedians'humor entertains busy,young
people and eases their stress.
Yet the club member Ariella Shua says comedy is serious work.Every comedy starts as an
individual project-each member writes their own material.Then they try it out in weekly
club meetings where all club members read the material,going joke by joke and seeing what
works and what doesn't.Nothing unsatisfactory will be compromised.In this way comes a
satisfying comedy.
Ariella joined the club last year.Now she does not go anywhere without bringing
something on which she can take notes."Whenever I just have a thought in my head or when
I see something or overhear someone saying something in the library,I just put it down,"
Ariella explained."When I'm trying to write my own set,I go walk through that ...to see if
there is anything in there that I can use."
Club president Nicholas Scandura finds writing one of the many skills he has developed
since joining the club."Writing jokes takes a lot of critical thinking,"he said.The club gives
its members a sense of community.When they meet,they share funny experiences,tell jokes
and laugh.
Harry Kuperstein discovered the club was a natural fit.Noticing the funny qualities of
different situations improved his way of looking at the world.Becoming an active member also
helped him work on the future skills he'll need as a medical doctor."Having jokes ready to go
might help smooth these interactions and make you a better public speaker,"he said.
