B. 根据课文的内容在每个空白处填入一个恰当的词。 The first person stood up and told a very funny joke about an Englishman who fell in love with his umbrella. When he finished, he was _1_ tears of laughter, for he always laughed at his _2_ jokes. The rest of the group remained _3_ silent. You could tell from their faces and their eyes _4_ they found the joke funny, but not one of them was going to laugh, and give him the chance to _5_ the competition. The second told a story about a three-legged pig, _6_ was so good that, some years later, a film company made a _7_ of it. When she sat down, the others buried their faces _8_ their handkerchiefs, coughed, pretended to sneeze, dropped pencils under the table—anything to _9_ up their laughter. And so it went _10_, joke after joke, the sort of jokes that make your sides ache. And nobody dared to laugh.
