老师：hello， everyone welcome back to our English class i am hewei from 人大附中朝阳school。
老师：In today's lesson, we're going to continue with Unit 4, humor. Today we will learn the second period of reading my favorite comedian. Shall we begin? Do you still remember what we have Learned in the last period? Do you like Mister Bin's performance in the restaurant? What do you think are the features of his performance? And what impressed you the most? Try to answer the questions and write down your answers on the student's sheets. You can refer to the text if you need.

Do you agree with me and do you find the evidence in the text? Yes.
