Speaking on P23
S1: What fun! I enjoyed that story. I
always laugh at that kind of thing.
S2: Me too. I’m pleased we both like
the same kind of funny stories
Sample dialogue 1:
S1: The punch line was good. You were
wondering what would happen. So
I’m happy that it all turned out well
in the end.
S2: It surprises me that John didn’t see
the plum stone if Mary did.
S1: That’s because Mary did the cooking,
but John didn’t look at the jam
carefully!
He just thought it was a mess and threw it
away.
S2: I think it’s very amusing and always try to
read stories like that. They make me
smile.
S1: Ok. Let me tell you this funny story then.
It is about a hedge cutter which was made
in China but sold in England...
Speaking on P23
S1: This is my joke. (without smiling)
“When is a door not a door?”
S2: I don’t know. When is a door not
a door?
Sample dialogue2:
S1: When it’s a jar. (laughs)
S2: Why is that funny?
S1: It is a play on words. A door is a jar
when it is slightly open. A jar is a sort
of jug. That is what makes it funny!
S2: Oh, I see! Well, you did not say it in a
very funny way.
S1: What should I do? Was I too serious?
Did I smile when I shouldn’t?
S2: You looked serious. That was good
but you looked too serious. You
should have a little sparkle in your
eye to show me that a joke is coming.
You could also smile a little (with
your lips perhaps).
S1: OK. Shall I try it again? Let me see
if you find it funny this time.
S2: Yes. When you are ready, you can
begin again.

Stages in the story

China.
2. It breaks down and he tries to mend it
himself.
3.The instruction booklet says it should
not be touched “ without permission”
4. He decides to get a new one so no one
will ever know.
Mr. hills in London bought a Hedge cutter
made in China, It was very small and very
cheap and it worked very well.
At first he was very pleased with it.
Then one day it broke down. There was
nothing he could do to make it work. He
took it apart and put it together again
but still it would not work.
Next he took out the blanket of instructions
to see if they had any advice for him. Imagine
his amazement when he saw these words
written in the blanket. “No one is allowed to
touch or try to repair this hedge cutter
without permission.” What was he to do?
Should he have written to the manufacturers
in Beijing before he had his hedge cutter
mended?
Mrs. Hills thought long and hard. Finally
he went back to the shop and bought
another hedge cutter. He put his old one in
the dustbin. He thought no one would ever
know what he had done.
At a dinner party, the speaker, who was the guest of
honor, was about to deliver a speech when his wife sitting
at the other end of the table, sent him a piece of paper
with the word “KISS" scribbled on it.
The guest seated next to the speaker said, "Your wife
must love you very much, I see her send you a 'KISS'
before you begin your speech."
The speaker smiled and explained, "You don't know
my wife. The 'KISS' she give me stands for 'Keep It Short,
Stupid.'"
Sample writing2:
Two persons are walking towards a chair
in the park. One is Mr. Brown with a board who

stick behind. Mr. Brown is beginning to walk
faster. Mr. Green runs much faster and soon he
gets ahead. Mr. Brown also runs. But Mr. Green

reads, “ WET PAINT ! ”
