42、hs we can. It seems that almost every day there is another new discovery about the power of humour to help us physically, mentally, emotionally,and spiritually. Every system of the body responds to laughter in some important or positive way. 62. _Many pcople mistakenly believe that we are born with
43、a sense of humour. They think that when it comes to a sense of humour, “either you have got it or you dont.” This is false!

47、n a situation.”65. _There may be a thousand different ways to express your sense of humour, but joke telling is only one of those ways.
