The following passage contains 10 mistakes. Find and correct them In 2001, the British Association for the Advancement of Science went on search of the world’s funniest joke. The experiment involved people from all over the world posted their jokes on to a website and rating the submissions of their. Among the jokes entered was the following: ‘There were two cows in a field. One said ‘Moo.’ The other one said ‘I was going to say that.’ The joke was then entered into the archive several times, using different animals and noises. Two tigers said ‘Grr,’ two dogs said ‘Woof’ and so on. You would imagine that one animal and noise would be much the same like another. However, the joke rated the funniest was: ‘Two ducks were sitting on a pond. One of the duck said ‘Quack.’ The other duck said, ‘I was going to say that.’ The research supported the wide held theory that some words and sounds are distinctly funnier than others. The ‘k’ sound (or the ‘hard c’) as heard in ‘quack’ and ‘duck’ have always been regarded in the comedy world as specially funny. Why? It may be down to a rather odd facial phenomenon known for ‘facial feedback’. When people feel happy they smile but some evidence suggests that the mechanism also works in reverse. The hard letter ‘k’ often forces the face to smile, which may explain why the sound is associated with happiness.
