C1–C2 LEVEL
📘 Vocabulary (C1–C2)
Read the word, meaning, and example.
spontaneous – unplanned, natural
Example: Students respond strongly to spontaneous humor.
rely – depend on
Example: Good teachers don’t rely only on textbooks.
prop – object used in performance
Example: Props in the classroom can feel unnecessary.
📖 Reading (C1–C2)
Humor is more than entertainment in language learning—it’s a cognitive tool that deepens engagement. Laughter activates neural pathways linked to memory and reduces emotional barriers that block communication. At advanced levels, humor exposes cultural assumptions and linguistic nuance. Interestingly, research suggests that forced or overly theatrical humor, such as props or exaggerated voices, can weaken its effectiveness, while spontaneous humor strengthens classroom connection.
📝 Questions
How does humor support cognitive engagement?
Why is humor a cultural tool?
Why is forced humor less effective?
✔ Answers
It activates memory-forming neural pathways.
It reveals cultural assumptions and nuance.
Because it feels unnatural and weakens connection.
