This is definitely true of British comedy. Most people think humor is about happy things, but not for the British. We love to use our cruel sense of humor to complain and be negative（消极的）.British comedy, fbr example, draws a fine line between comedy and tragedy. BBC's The Office is a TV show, famous for its dry humor. The main character, David Brent, is a foolish man, and the show's comedy comes from his delusions（错觉的）.For example, he often tells himself that he is loved by everyone but the viewer can see that everyone hates him.Stupid characters for the audience to laugh at are an old tradition in Britain. In Shakespeare's play Twelfth Night, the character Malvolio is an old man whom people play tricks on. The audience will laugh away, although the reality is that this man is a truly poor person.This side of British humor is reflected（反映）in friendships as-well. At university, my friends and I would always laugh at one another. I had an American friend who actually found this sarcasm（挖苦）quite upsetting. She didn't realize that in Britain, the better friends you are with someone, the more you laugh at them.This way-laughing at everything-may sound rather depressing（沮丧），but our strange humor played a big part in British history. There is a saying in English: “. If you are ever on the receiving end of British sarcasm, you may feel like crying, but it's best to just laugh it off!5. Which of the following can be put in the?A.
