Find evidence from the text to support your opinion. Mr Bean is an amusing person. His actions are always surprising. You cannot imagine what unexpected behaviors he may do. For example, he hides the raw meat inside the sugar bowl, the tiny flower vase and under a plate. He even hides some inside the purse of a woman sitting near him and throws some down the trousers of the restaurants violinist.Mr Bean is more nice than wise. He has no friends to celebrate the birthday together, but he writes himself a card and pretends to receive it surprisingly. He is not rich, but goes to an expensive restaurant. He doesnt like steak tartare, but shows the waiter that he likes it and tries to show this by emptying his plate and hiding the dish everywhere.2 Mr Bean is a very popular TV series in Britain. Do you think people like it just for fun? Is there any underlying meaning behind this TV series?Mr Bean is popular because the character in it constantly gets into awkward and absurd situations, and his humor is always made clear through a series of simple and funny acts that rely purely on body language, which is universal. Apart from fun, people like it because it portrays ordinary peoples life vividly, especially the awkward moments, often with good intentions but bad results. This is true to peoples life as no one is perfect. The meaning behind it might be life is still good despite the imperfections. It is not a simply funny TV show. This TV series reveals the hypocrisy of poor people. Mr Bean is poor but he still goes to a fancy restaurant. He can only afford one dish. Even he doesnt like the dish, he pretends to be a rich man and enjoys the dish.3 According to Text 2, what makes Rowan Atkinson successful in playing the role of Mr Bean?Good education background, great efforts to overcome his stutter, and talent in acting make Rowan Atkinson successful in playing the role.Watch an episode Rowan Atkinson starred in and try to describe the funniest part.
