Passage one:

Clowns(小丑) like to make people laugh. They paint their faces and put on funny noses. Sometimes they put on a sad face but most of the time they put on a happy face. They also wear funny clothes.

Most clowns work in circuses. They do all kinds of silly things to make the audience laugh. They run, jump, fall down, turn somersaults (翻滚，斤头), and roll over. They ride donkeys

backwards. They push each other in wagons or wheelbarrows. Sometimes they shout and sing. Clowns are funny men, and occasionally, women, too! A circus is not a circus without clowns!

Children especially enjoy watching clowns. A clown named Cookie often visits hospitals to entertain sick children as well as older people. Sick people need to laugh. It helps them to get better faster.

There is an old saying:”Laughter is good medicine.”

小丑喜欢让人发笑。他们把自己的脸刷上颜料，带上可笑的鼻子。有时他们也会刷上一张悲伤的脸，但大多数情况下他们总是刷上一张快乐的脸。他们也穿着滑稽可笑的衣服。

大多数的小丑是在马戏团里工作。他们做着各种各样的愚蠢的事情为了博得观众的欢笑。他们跑着，跳着，摔倒，翻滚，和打滚。他们倒骑毛驴。他们彼此在马车或独轮手推车里相互推搡。有时他们大喊和唱歌。小丑通常都是些可笑的男人，偶尔也有女性小丑！马戏团没有了小丑就不算是马戏团了。

儿童特别喜欢看小丑表演。一个名叫酷奇的小丑经常到医院看望生病的孩子、年老的老人。病人需要欢笑。欢笑有助于他们更快的恢复健康。

有句谚语说：“欢笑是最好的良药。”
