Baidu knows the problems in humor, and the most frequently asked questions are jokes, followed by how to cultivate a sense of humor. To have a sense of humor, we must first understand what humor is. Humor is not innate. It is a fact that everyone is born different. Some people are born with the gift of being funny, which can make people laugh from their looks, language or actions, but that is just funny, a basic aspect of humor, and can't be called humor. Some people have read and remembered many jokes, and are good at making people laugh with them, which can't be called true humor.

So what is humor?

■ Humor is the embodiment of a special emotion. It is a tool for people to adapt to the environment, and it is a way to relieve mental and psychological pressure when human beings are facing difficulties. Russian writer Chekhov said: People who don't know how to joke are hopeless.

■ Humor is also a display of taste and quality. It is not glib, nor is it sarcasm or satire. As a famous person said, it is difficult to be humorous if you are impetuous, pretentious, boring, stretched and clumsy. Only when you are calm, generous, equal, detached, intelligent and thorough can you be humorous.

■ Humor is a clever and wise expression. It must be based on mature experience and rich knowledge. Only when a person has the ability to assess the situation, extensive knowledge and quick thinking can he be rich in talking and interested in Miao Yan.

There is a difference between a person with a sense of humor and a person who tells jokes or makes people laugh. Only those who deeply understand the inner meaning of humor, point out the shortcomings or advantages of others with wit and agility, and affirm or deny them with a smile, are the people who truly understand humor. Such people are full of interest in life, but they easily deal with many seemingly painful and troublesome things. Dealing with troubles and contradictions with humor can make people feel harmonious, happy and friendly.

The development of humor culture in China is relatively backward. China is a country that has experienced feudal system for thousands of years. People have strong self-restraint and worry too much. They prefer to show their perfect self when interacting with others, and it is difficult to laugh at themselves. Even if humor is mostly directed at a third party, it is simple and direct, with less wisdom and meaning. Now it has developed into a situation where "dirty" jokes, text messages and limerick are flying all over the sky. Personally, these yellow jokes are mostly vulgar and low-level and should be eliminated. Therefore, in life, we should all learn humor, be more humorous, less flustered, less paranoid, less desperate and less vulgar.

So how to cultivate a sense of humor?

■ The first is to expand knowledge. Knowledge is the foundation and source of humor. Knowledge lies in accumulation. To cultivate a sense of humor, first of all, we should read widely, enrich ourselves, constantly collect humorous radio waves from a sea of books, and extract humorous gems from the essence of interesting stories of celebrities.

■ Secondly, cultivate sentiment and face life freely. We should have a tolerant heart, be good at understanding others, learn to be generous and overcome haggling over every ounce. Meanwhile, we should be optimistic about reality. Optimism and humor are close friends. If we have more fun and relaxation, more smiles and games, more optimism and humor in life, there will be no insurmountable difficulties, and we will not be sad and worried all day.

■ Finally, cultivate insight and improve the ability to observe things. Cultivating tact and flexibility is an important aspect to improve the quality of humor. Only by grasping the essence of things quickly and laughing off humorous language with appropriate metaphors can people feel relaxed. Of course, at the same time of humor, we should also pay attention to the flexibility of dealing with different problems, so as to be humorous and unconventional, and truly reflect the charm of humor.
