幽默在英语印刷媒体中扮演着重要的角色，从报纸标题中简单的双关语到社论漫画中复杂的视觉和语言相互作用。理解幽默媒体文本的能力可能是一个挑战，但也是高级学生的一个重要目标。作为语言学习材料，这些文本具有几个明显的优势：它们通常涉及学习者可以很容易地从第一语言媒体熟悉的上下文和内容;它们以目标语言呈现内容的多个来源，易于通过互联网访问，因此为调查和比较提供了多种解释。本文将记录一个正在进行的项目的早期阶段，通过使用一系列报纸漫画处理北京奥运会，以提供不仅是真实的语言输入的学生，但也是一个创造性的学习者输出的媒体，媒体幽默的语言课堂。以及输入和输出文本的语言分析，数据来自学习者对他们的反应将被呈现，表明学生能够操纵英语固定短语，和一些关键的主题元素，产生自己的幽默文本相当成功。
Humour plays a significant role in the English print media, from simple puns in newspaper headlines to the complex visual and verbal interplay of editorial cartoons. The ability to understand humorous media texts can be a challenge, but also an important goal for advanced students. As language learning materials, these texts possess several distinct advantages: they often deal with contexts and content with which learners can easily be made familiar from L1 media; and they present multiple sources of that content in the target language, easily accessible via the Internet, and which therefore provide multiple interpretations for investigation and comparison. This paper will document the early stages of an ongoing project to introduce media humour to the language classroom, through the use of a series of newspaper cartoons dealing with the Beijing Olympics, in order to provide not only authentic language input for students, but also a medium for creative learner output. As well as linguistic analysis of both input and output texts, data deriving from learner reaction to them will be presented, showing that students were able to manipulate English set phrases, and a number of key thematic elements, to produce their own humorous texts with considerable success.
