English people are famous for their humour (幽默). it is often difficult for foreigners to understand their jokes. The main thing to is that English people often use understatement.
Understatement means saying lessyou think or feel. For example, if gets very wet in a shower of rain, he might say, "It's a little damp (潮湿的) " Or, if someone is very impolite and shouts at another person people might say, "He isn't exactly friendly." People often use understatement in unpleasant (使人不愉快的) or to make another person look silly.
Also, English people like to make fun of themselves as well as others. The comedy (喜剧) 'Mr Bean' is a(n) example of this kind of humour. Mr Bean always speaks as little as in the comedy. He always to use his body to make people happy. Maybe what makes Mr Bean so funny is that he does things that people in the real world will never do.
