He has a cucumber (黄瓜) up his nose, a carrot in his left ear and a banana in his right ear. “What’s the matter with me?” he asks the doctor. The doctor replies, “You’re not eating properly.” This is a popular joke among British schoolchildren. It shows Britain’s famous dry and satirical (讽刺的) way of seeing the funny side of life. People say this unique sense of humor is one of Britains national characteristics. The British sense of humor is different from other countries because it is often more negative. When it comes to making the British laugh, there is nothing that works better than a socially inappropriate joke. It reflects the culture where mocking (嘲弄) is part of everyday life. While most Britons dont take these jokes too seriously, foreigners often dont understand them. A recent survey found that most foreigners who visited Britain think the British are “unfriendly and have almost no sense of humor”. Are the British just not as funny as they think they are? Leo McKinstry, a British journalist, thinks the British are funny. Accusing the British of having no sense of humor is like telling Rolls-Royce (劳斯莱斯) that its cars are cheap and not good in quality, he says. ( ) 1.
