a huge rubber hammer, as part of their performance. A carpet clown moves around, talking with the audience and performing while the acts change in the rings. Then there are acrobatic clowns, tiding clowns, juggling downs and others. Everything a clown does looks easy, but it is not. Making people laugh can be hard work. Clowns must be in good physical condition to prevent injuries. Each funny move is carefully timed and well-rehearsed (排练). Most clowns have also been trained as acrobats, jugglers or aerial artists, and many include such skills into their acts. Generally, there are three types of circus clowns-whiteface, auguste and character. Each has a special makeup and clothes. Each has a typical act as well. The neat whiteface is usually a strict, in-charge character who sets up the punch line (the point of a joke) with a partner who is typically an auguste. His facial makeup is neatly detailed in red or black, and his clothes look so loose with a ruffle around the neck. Old circus stories have it that the auguste clown got his name from a German nickname for someone who is clumsy, acting in a careless and stupid way. The auguste wears light-coloured makeup, but white is used around the mouth and eyes, and there's a big red nose. This clown performs a great deal of humour. An oversized suit or baggy trousers allow freedom of movement for all the clumsy acts. He also wears big shoes. Character clowns perform as different characters-cowboys, grandmothers or concert conductors. The most famous character clown, however, is the tramp (流浪汉). Tramps wear different styles of makeup and torn clothes. Some tramp clowns are happy-go-lucky. Others are extremely sad. Still others act like gentlemen who just happen to be out of money. | ||

| A. became silent to avoid annoying people B. began to perform silently because of larger audiences C. realized audience members often spoke another language D. discovered that three-ring circuses were becoming more popular | ||
| 2. How is Paragraph 3 mainly developed? | ||
| A. By describing details. B. By listing effects. C. By making comparison. D. By giving explanations. | ||
| 3. If a clown is dressed in baggy clothing, which set of clowns does he belong to? | ||
| A. The auguste and the whiteface. B. The walk-around and the tramp. C. The carpet clown and the cowboy. D. The riding clown and the conductor. | ||
| 4. In what way is the whiteface different from the auguste? | ||
| A. He has a larger audience. B. He wears more attractive clothes. C. He performs in a special circus ring. D. He plays a leading role in performances. | ||
| 5. Why did the author write this article? | ||
| A. To give some basic facts about clowns. B. To express his opinion on circus clowns. C. To tell readers about the history of clowns. D. To describe the hard work circus clowns do. |

| Human activities have great effect on the environment. Everyone can make small life changes toward a low-carbon (低碳) life. Such changes can not only make a difference for the environment, but also have great health benefits for you. ● Burn less gas. Try walking or bicycling to work a few times a week and get a healthy exercise on the way. Encourage children to walk to school. Cutting down on driving and using your own two legs helps cut global warming pollution and helps deal with weight problems over time. ● Eat more thoughtfully. Eat less meat and more grains and vegetables, which helps reduce the need to change forests or grasslands to pasturelands (牧场). Replace one or more of your weekly meals with a meatless meal. ● Drink tap water rather than buy bottled water. Bottled water produces up to 1.5 million tons of plastic waste per year. Bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap water, and tap water is cheaper. ● Reduce the use of paper. Think twice before you print. If you must print, try printing on both sides. ● Reduce the amount of water you use in your home. Turn off the water while brushing your teeth and turn off the shower after soaping up. Wash your fruits and vegetables in a basin of water instead of running water from the tap. ● Use energy-saving lamps to save money, use less energy and create less pollution. These lamps are easily available and have various styles and brands. |
