Many people liked to listen to him because he liked to tell some interesting stories to make people laugh all the time. One day Mark Twain was going to a small town because of his writing. Before he was going to leave, one of his friends said to him that there were always a lot of mosquitoes in the town and told him that he’d better not go there. Mark Twain waved his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. The mosquitoes are not relatives of mine. I don’t think they will come to visit me.” After he arrived at the town, Mark Twain stayed in a small hotel near the station. He went into his room.

There are too many mosquitoes in our town,” one of them said to him. Mark Twain, however, made a joke, saying to the waiter, “The mosquitoes are very clever. They know my room number.
