Speaking Practice Are you good at telling jokes?
2
I'd say I'm fairly good at telling jokes, especially when I'm with close friends or people I feel comfortable with.
3
I'm not really the type who can come up with a joke on the spot, but I can usually make people laugh with funny stories from my everyday life.
4
Sometimes I even use a bit of sarcasm, but I try to make sure the joke doesn't offend anyone.
