4．Sense of Humor

There is no denying that everybody enjoys staying and talking with humorous persons．These people，with their remarks full of wit and humor，often make us forget the boredom we might be experiencing．And more importantly，people with a strong sense of humor add a lot of impressive and happy moments to our life．

According to my observation，humorous people seem to share many common qualities．In the first place，they tend to be optimistic and open-minded，seldom do we hear them complaining．Secondly，they are quick-minded，capable of finding swift association between what appears to be two entirely irrelevant incidents．In addition，they often display their wide range of knowledge through their thoughts．

People around me are often impressed by my sense ofhumor．I think I owe this valuable assetto my mother， whose witty remarks have accompanied all the way in my life．
