Section Ⅴ LESSON 3 MY FAVOURITE COMEDIAN
TEXT 1 Mr Bean
[1]Mr Bean is an internationally recognised comedy character in films and TV series.He has a reputation for① constantly encountering awkward situations②, which greatly amuses audiences③ of all nationalities and cultures.[2]His humour is always made clear④ through a series of⑤ simple and funny acts that rely purely on⑥ body language⑦ that is universal.
One of my favourite episodes was Mr Bean in a fancy restaurant.After being seated⑧ at his table, Mr Bean takes out⑨ a card, writes a few words on it, puts it in an envelope and places it on the table.[3]After a moment⑩, he looks back at the envelope but this time he looks surprised⑪, as if he did not know it was there.He opens it to find a birthday card and very happily puts it on the table for everyone to see.
When he looks at the menu, an astonished look⑫ quickly appears on his face.He takes all the money out of his wallet, counts it and puts it in a saucer.He then looks from the menu to the money with concern⑬ until he finds one thing that makes him smile.Then he orders a dish called “steak tartare”.When the dish arrives, he is shocked to⑭ discover that “steak tartare” is actually raw hamburger.[4]He makes an attempt⑮ to eat it, but it is clear from the look on his face as he is chewing that he finds the taste truly awful.He cannot hide his feelings⑯, except when the waiters ask if everything is all right.When this happens, he smiles and nods, indicating that everything is fine.When the waiters are not looking, however, he busies himself hiding the raw meat anywhere he can reach — the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase, inside a bread roll and under a plate.He becomes so desperate in the end⑰ that he even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurant’s violinist!
I like to watch Mr Bean on TV but I wouldn’t want to meet someone like him in real life, and I certainly wouldn’t want to have dinner with him!
【释疑难】 [2]本句为主从复合句。句中两个that都引导定语从句,分别修饰先行词acts和body language。
[3]本句为并列复合句。句中but连接两个并列分句;在第二个分句中含有一个as if引导的方式状语从句,其谓语部分使用了虚拟语气,此处表示与现在事实相反的情况,用了一般过去时。
[4]本句为并列复合句。句中but连接两个并列分句;第二个分句为it is clear that ...句型,其中it为形式主语,that引导的从句为主语从句,as引导时间状语从句。
【赏靓点】 [1]句中internationally说明了憨豆先生的影响力之大。
第二段使用一系列的动作描写,如be seated, take out, write, put, look back at, open等,反映出憨豆先生娴熟的表演技巧,细致地描绘了憨豆先生在餐厅的经历和行为。
TEXT 2 The Contemporary Chaplin
Rowan Atkinson is an English actor, comedian and screenwriter.In Britain, Mr Atkinson is mostly famous for① many successful TV shows but internationally we know him best as the awkward, clumsy, but always amusing Mr Bean.[1]If you think that Rowan Atkinson is anything like② his famous creation, then you are in for a surprise.On the contrary③, he is nothing like④ Mr Bean.
Rowan was born on 6 January, 1955.He grew up⑤ on a farm with his parents and three older brothers.His father was very strict and did not believe in⑥ the value of television.
Rowan had a very successful academic career.At the age of 13, he was awarded a scholarship⑦ to a boarding school⑧.Later, he studied at Newcastle University, where he attained the highest marks⑨ in his year.At Oxford, he obtained his master’s degree⑩ in electrical engineering.[2]This may explain why he loves fast cars, of which he has many.
When Rowan was young, he had a stutter and to make his speech clearer, he began to speak very carefully.This may be why some of his characters have unusual ways of speaking.
[3]As early as⑪ primary school, Rowan had already shown a talent for⑫ acting, but it was only later at university that he decided to become an actor.A key event occurred one day in 1976 when he was playing around and pulling a face⑬ in the mirror.“I discovered my face,” he said later.
[4]John Lloyd, who worked as a producer for BBC Television, says that one rarely meets someone with such genius, and that when he worked with Atkinson he became convinced that Rowan would be more famous than Charlie Chaplin.
【释疑难】 [2]本句为主从复合句。句中why引导宾语从句,of which he has many是一个由“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句。
[3]本句为并列复合句。句中but连接两个并列分句;第二个分句是一个强调句,本句强调的是时间状语only later at university。
[4]本句为主从复合句。句中who引导非限制性定语从句;and连接两个并列的that引导的宾语从句。
【赏靓点】 [1]句中的anything like为高级用词,比like更能描绘出Rowan Atkinson在影视与生活中的明显差异。

参考译文
憨豆先生
憨豆先生是一位国际知名的影视喜剧人物。他的著名之处在于总是遇到尴尬的情境,使来自不同国家、不同文化背景的观众都觉得非常好笑。他的幽默总是通过一连串简单、可笑的动作清晰地表达出来,完全依靠肢体语言这一全世界都能理解的方式。
我最喜欢的一集是憨豆先生在一家高档餐厅用餐的故事。在餐厅里就座后,憨豆先生拿出一张卡片,在上面写了几个字,塞进信封,放在桌子上。过了一会儿,他再看那信封,露出惊讶的表情,好像完全不知道它在那里。打开信封后,发现是张生日贺卡,他便高兴地把贺卡放在桌上向大家炫耀起来。
看菜单时,憨豆先生脸上立刻露出震惊的表情。他把钱包里所有的钱都拿出来,数了数,放进碟子里。他担心地一会儿看看菜单,一会儿看看钱,最终找到了一种食物,脸上露出了微笑。然后他点了一道“鞑靼碎牛排”。可上菜的时候,憨豆先生惊讶地发现“鞑靼碎牛排”其实就是生肉馅。他尝了尝,从他那咀嚼的表情就能看出,这东西一点都不好吃。他无法掩饰自己的感觉,除了在服务员问他是否一切满意时。服务员问他的时候,他笑着点点头,装作一切都好的样子。然而,在服务员没有注意的时候,他却忙着把生肉藏在他能够到的任何地方——糖碗、小花瓶、小圆面包里和盘子下面。最后他无计可施,居然把一部分生肉藏在旁边女士的钱包里,塞进餐厅小提琴手的裤子里!
我喜欢看电视里的憨豆先生,却不希望在现实生活中遇到像他这样的人,更不想和他共进晚餐!
当代卓别林
罗温•艾金森,英国喜剧演员、编剧。艾金森先生在英国的名气主要源于他参演了很多著名影视剧,但在国际上,我们所熟悉的他是那个尴尬、笨拙,总能把人逗乐的憨豆先生。如果你认为罗温•艾金森和他扮演的憨豆先生角色一样,那你一定会感到惊讶。相反,他本人实际上一点也不像憨豆先生。
罗温出生于1955年1月6日,随父母在农场长大,家中有三个哥哥。他的父亲非常严厉,不相信电视的价值。
罗温的学生生涯非常成功。他13岁就获得了一所寄宿学校的奖学金。之后就读于纽卡斯尔大学,并以专业第一名的优异成绩毕业。随后,他又取得了牛津大学电机工程硕士学位。这也许是他为什么那么喜欢跑车,而且收藏了很多跑车的原因吧。
罗温小时候有口吃的毛病,为了讲话更清楚,他说话格外仔细。这也是他所塑造的一些角色讲话方式与众不同的原因。
早在小学时,罗温就表现出了表演天赋,但直到大学毕业,他才决定当一名演员。1976 年的一天发生了一件关键的事情,闲玩之中他对着镜子做鬼脸。后来他说:“那天,我发现了自己的另一副面孔。”
英国广播公司电视台的制片人约翰•劳埃德说,遇到这样的天才很难得,与罗温的合作使他相信罗温会比查理•卓别林更出名。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
Each year at Girl Scout summer camp, the night I, as a kid, expected most was the closing campfire, a few hours of silliness that marked our final evening together.All week, my teammates and I had been addicted to our skit (滑稽短剧) performance, editing lines and practicing scenes.
Skits and songs are deeply rooted in the camp experience.The days might be all about sports or nature, but night-time entertainment is a kid’s dream.Similar to a talent show, some performances are educational but mostly, they just make you laugh.Talent is irrelevant, and audience engagement through call and response is essential.
In the camp, social rule disappears and space for self-exploration forms.Shy kids come out of their shells, and cool kids let their guard down.They get to open up this door to a part of themselves that they wouldn’t have felt safe to show at school or at home.
It’s a decade ago that I performed as a camp member, and I never thought of skits from a skill-building view.But I now realize this rich camp tradition left a great impression on me.Through camp skits, I developed my sense of humor, built confidence in front of a crowd, and learned how to accept others for their quirks (怪癖).
Maybe we can make our schools or communities more like summer camps by bringing the silliness of skits into our families and classrooms to reconnect with ourselves and each other.The next time you’re sitting around a campfire with friends and family, give it a try.Embrace the discomfort and invite your loved ones to join in on the improvising (即兴创作).And remember: the more funny noises and childlike humor, the better.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者童年时在夏令营中通过篝火晚会上的滑稽短剧表演,培养幽默感、建立自信,并学会接受他人怪癖的经历。

3.How did the author benefit from camp skits?( )
A.She developed a competitive spirit.
B.She understood social rules better.

B
(2026•陕西宝鸡中学高二月考)When we think about what makes humans unique, a good sense of humor is often high on the list.Laughter and playful teasing seem like traits only we possess.However, recent research suggests that animals — particularly great apes — may also engage in behavior that resembles humor.
A study led by primatologist (灵长类动物学家) Isabelle Laumer at the Max Planck Institute reveals fascinating insights.“We documented young apes deliberately sneaking up to hit adults, then waiting expectantly for a reaction,” Laumer explains.“This isn’t random play — it meets all the criteria of intentional teasing.” Over 75 hours of video recordings showed this behavior mirrors how human children joke: repetitive, surprising, and aimed at seeking responses.The researchers noted that the apes even paused to watch for the adult’s reaction, much like a child waiting to see if their joke landed.
But humor in animals may not be limited to apes.Dog owners often notice their pets making breathy, snorting sounds during play, which some scientists interpret as laughter.In a 2025 study, researchers found that playing these sounds to shelter dogs reduced their stress levels.Similarly, dolphins emit joyful sounds during play-fighting, elephants trumpet excitedly when playing, and some parrots tease other animals — like confusing dogs with whistles — just for fun.
Why might animals exhibit humor? In humans, laughter strengthens social connections and eases tension.Scientists argue that playful teasing in apes or “laughter” in dogs could serve a similar purpose — breaking the ice and reinforcing relationships.Some researchers believe these behaviors may have evolved (进化) to help animals manage complex social ranks or reduce conflict.However, Laumer cautions that more research is needed to confirm this theory, as observing humor in animals remains challenging.
While we may never know if animals understand punchlines, their behaviors hint at humor’s deep evolutionary roots.As Laumer reflects: “The line between human and animal laughter isn’t as sharp as we thought.”
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究发现动物(特别是类人猿、狗、海豚等)可能也会表现出类似幽默的行为,以及这种行为背后的潜在原因和科学家对此的态度。
5.What did Laumer’s study find about young apes?( )
A.They enjoy intentional teasing towards adults.
B.They often fight in groups to seek protection.

Seeing his wound, she said with a mix of amusement and helplessness, “You are just making a normal dish, not turning yourself into an extra ingredient!” Xiao Ming pouted and said, “Mom, I’m just being creative!” Mom sighed and replied, “What we need is a safe-made and healthy dinner!”
