Everybody has a different opinion on what qualities make a good person. Some might consider honesty and devotion to be very important. 1. , but I believe that the ability to be optimistic is the most essential quality. I also think having a sense of humor and a smile is very important.
Voltaire once said “Life is a shipwreck (沉船), but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboat.” Life isn’t perfect, but why should we focus on the imperfections of life when we can smile. Being positive means looking out the window at a thunderstorm and saying “Wow, the plant will be watered.” If you look up the definition for laugh in a dictionary, it would say “to make sounds from the throat while breathing out in short bursts as a way of expressing amusement.” 2.. It is like a cure for cancer or an umbrella in the rain. Laughter can protect you from the harmful rays of grief. I believe comedians are the true doctors of this world. 3.. Laughter truly is the most effective and side effect-free medicine in the world.
4.. Whether you are from China, France, or Germany, you smile in the same language. A smile has the power to make someone’s day. If you smile at someone, they will probably smile back. Therefore, smile all the time and pretty soon the whole planet will wear a happy smile. Life is like a mirror, and we get the best results when we smile at it.
Laugh your heart out, think optimistically, and don’t forget to smile. Imagine the world to be a happy and safe place to live. I have the power to make the world a better place. 5..
A.Life is a bed of roses
B.Laughter is much more than that
C.I agree that these qualities are vital
D.One’s happiness depends on his / her philosophy of life
E.You have that power to make the world a different place, too
F.They give you a free prescription every time you come to their office
G.A smile is one of the only gestures performed and understood globally
