1 always figured that comedians were the best kind of people to hang around with as a kid. They tell funny stories, make joke after joke, and happiness seems never to leave them. But time goes on, and we come to see these same people as clowns on the outside, but crying a river in the inside. Comedy from these people comes from a deep pain and sadness in their lives, or out of a deep-seated anger they have at the world around them.

Look at Richard Pryor, need I say more? Richard seemed to have everything. For Superman m , he ended up getting more money than Christopher Reeve did. Yet he said while he was in his forties that the last truly happy moment he remembered in his life was when he was jumping around in the dirt while pretending to be a cowboy at the age of 10. This guy set himself on fire, and he played that for laugh while performing live at the Sunset Strip ! Comedy was his constant weapon against pain, and he never held anything back.

The movie Funny People understand very well this gloomy field many comedians have to survive in. It stars Adam Sandler as George Simmons, a famous comedian in the movie. Simmons has it all: a beautiful mansion overlooking the sea, a swimming pool,great cars, and so on. But in his eyes, we see that he is a sad man who has come to truly look down upon himself for what he has become. All the wealth he has collected only serves to separate him from the rest of the world and it makes him defensive when around total strangers who cannot see him as a normal person. But now, he hears from his doctor that he has a terminal disease and has only months left to live. Simmons reacts to this news as if someone took away his blood in the heart, and it makes him clearly see just how much he hates his life. So now he has to make every minute count.

Then come a series of funny stories.

Comedy is just life as it is, isn't it?

1. What can we infer about "comedians" according to the text?

A. Comedians like to get along with kids.

B. Comedians' life is full of jokes.

C. Comedians often use their sad experience.

D. Comedians often cry in their daily life.

2.When was the happiest moment for Richard Pryor?

A. When he played the part of SupermanⅢ.

B. When he got more money than Christopher Reeve.

C. When he pretended to be a cowboy in the childhood.

D. When he performed live at the Sunset Strip.

3.Why was George Simmons unhappy?

A. He had no friends at all.

B. He spent too much on his house.

C. He wasn't accepted by the outside world.

D. He was hated by all the strangers around.

4.By saying "Comedy is just life as it is, isn't it?", the author means____

For example, speakers of British English say “in hospital” and “Have you a pen?” Americans say “in the hospital!” and “Do you have a pen?” Pronunciation is sometimes different.
