Unit 3 a taste of English humor

look to the school－book. It begins with the practical joke, and unless there

is something of his nature about it, it is never humor to an Englishman. In

an English household, fun is going all the time. The entire house resounds

with

it. The father comes home and the whole family contribute to the amusement;

puns, humorous uses of words, little things that are meaningless nonsense,
