In your opinion, what is the most importantcharacteristic (for example,
honesty,intelligence, a sense of humor) that a personcan have to successful in
life? Use specificreasons and examples from your experience toexplain your
answer. When you write youranswer, you are not limited to the exampleslisted in
the prompt.
Although honesty, intelligence, and a sense ofhumor are all worthwhile
characteristics, I feel themost important one in life to have is sensitivity. A
sensitive person is aware of him/herself andthe way their actions affect others.
A sensitive person knows the place of honesty,intelligence, and a sense of
humor.
Honesty is not always the best policy. There is such a thing as a white
lie. You don’t want toinsult someone by saying that their new dress doesn’t fit
properly or that you wouldn’t live intheir new house if they paid you. You must
be sensitive to when it is necessary to tell the truthand when it is better to
tell a white lie.
Intelligence is a wonderful thing to have, but not all intelligent people
use their intelligencesensitively. You don’t want to show off and make others
feel stupid. You must be sensitive tothe reactions of the people around you. It
might be appropriate for you to admit that youhave the right answer, but in some
cases, you might have to say, “I think this is the answer,but we might want to
check it.” A sensitive person would not make someone else look dumb.
A sense of humor is always valued. Different people, however, laugh at
different things. Youdon’t want to make someone feel uncomfortable by laughing
at his /her mistakes. A sensitiveperson would understand whether a person could
be teased or whether a person wouldappreciate a certain joke.
A sensitive person would make everyone feel comfortable. A sensitive person
understandsthat people are different and that the values of honesty,
intelligence and humor can beapplied differently.
