最有价值的私有财产：幽默感
What is humor？ It is not the performances of a clown who attempts to entertain others， nor is it simply making fun of others. Humor is the wisdom and resourcefulness that can alleviate an awkward situation. Life inevitably brings disappointments， setbacks， and failures. If our endurance in the midst of frustrations is not sound， anxiety and panic can overtake us. If one has a sense of humor， however， one can mentally adapt to the changing conditions in a wise and healthy manner.
Humor can reduce distress and unhappiness by creating a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. While stiff expressions make others uncomfortable， smiles and wit can soften anger， relieve depression， and comfort a broken heart. Humor can foster better communication and understanding， and therefore not only brings happiness to oneself， but also， and perhaps more importantly， gratifies others. A sense of humor can certainly increase one's popularity. Humor can clearly be of much help to our work， study， and life as it is beneficial to our physical and mental health. Not everyone one has an innate sense of humor， however. A sense of humor is usually acquired in relation to others. In order to develop a sense of humor， one must have an open mind and the ability to deal with unpleasant events and people. Humor also requires a broad spectrum of knowledge and optimistic thinking.

什么是幽默？它不是小丑企图取悦别人的表演，也不仅仅是拿别人来寻开心。幽默是缓和尴尬局面的智慧和机智。生活中避免不了失望、挫折和失败，如果我们承受挫折的忍耐力不够，焦虑和恐慌就会主导我们的身心。但如果一个人有幽默感，他就能用一种明智而健康的方式在心理上适应变化的环境。
幽默通过创造一种愉快而友好的'气氛来减轻不幸和苦恼。僵硬的表达让别人不舒服，微笑和机智却能熄灭怒火、减轻沮丧、抚慰绝望。幽默能促进更好的沟通和理解，因而不仅把快乐带给自身，而且更重要的还能让别人感到高兴。幽默感确实能提高一个人受欢迎的程度。
因为幽默有益于我们的身心健康，所以对我们的生活、工作、学习无疑都大有帮助。但没有人是生来就有幽默感的。幽默感通常是在人际交往中形成的。为了培养幽默感，一个人必须有开放的心胸和接受不愉快的事物的能力。幽默还需要有宽广的知识面和乐观的心态。
