Small children often laugh at the short ones or at someone who isn’t dressed as well as they are．But as they grow up，they learn not to hurt people’s feelings by laughing at their problems．They learn to laugh at other things．Most important，they learn to laugh at themselves．

    Suppose you’re playing a game．You make a mistake and lose．Do you become angry? Or can you laugh at yourself and hope to do better next time? Suppose you are at a special dinner．You at times spill(溅)some food．Why keep worrying about how clumsy (笨拙)you look? Why not laugh it off and enjoy yourself anyway? If you can，it’s a good sign that you’ve really grown up．
