The Significance of a Good Sense of HumourThe story goes that a certain court jester (宫廷小丑) went too far one day and insulted his king. The king became very angry and he sentenced the jester to death. His court prayed the king to have mercy on the man. After a time，the king decided to give the jester his choice as to how he would like to die. The jester replied，“If it’s all the same to you，my Lord，I’d like to die of old age. ” Certainly in this case，a good sense of humour saved the man’s life.
It’s true for us as well. We may not be faced with a situation where our wit will save us from death，but our sense of humour and the ability to laugh at things has proven healthy benefits that extend and improve our quality of life.Norman Cousins wrote about how he cured himself of cancer by laughing a good part of each day in his book. He rented films of comedies and watched them for hours on end in his hospital room. Finally，he was cured.
If laughter worked for Cousins with a life-threatening illness，it can work for us to improve and protect our good health. We should laugh often and heartily. It’s good for our body. Besides，life’s too important to be taken seriously.

○句型精析
分析：本句中where引导的定语从句，where在从句作地点状语。同时that引导的也是定语从句，that在从句作主语。译文：我们可能不会遇到用智慧将我们从死亡中拯救出来的情况，但我们的幽默感和笑着处理事情的能力已经证明是有益健康的，可以延展和提高我们的生活质量。
