For some time, I had been thinking that I wanted to do something to make strangers smile. I decided that I {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (leave) small notes around shops and other public places with positive sayings or kind words for strangers {#blank#}2{#/blank#} (find).

    A friend on Facebook posted that she had received a lot of beautiful paper from an artist friend and was wondering what to do with it. I told her about my idea, and she {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (immediate) said that this must be what her paper was meant for.

    So two friends on opposite {#blank#}4{#/blank#} (side) of the world started leaving these random notes of kindness. I leave my notes without {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (expect) any particular result. It doesn't matter whether they are read {#blank#}6{#/blank#} thrown away. The main thing is that I did this act.

    I now carry around a notebook in {#blank#}7{#/blank#} I write down lovely and inspiring phrases that I find. And I buy packs of Post­ its to write notes on whenever I see {#blank#}8{#/blank#} opportunity to make a stranger smile. I only leave the notes when I am feeling in a {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (happily) mood, as I don't want to pass any negative energy on to someone else.

    I sign them all {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (say) that this note is left for you by a stranger to make you smile. Then, I add a heart.

    After the children left, Johnny came out to look {#blank#}3{#/blank#}his tail, but found no sign of it. Feeling sad, he made a {#blank#}4{#/blank#}(decide) to spend all his time looking for it. Time passed, and Johnny kept asking everyone whether {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(them) had seen his tail. One day, he asked a boy, who surprisedly replied, “Why do you need two tails?” Hearing this, Johnny turned back and saw a new, stronger tail. He {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(sudden) realized how silly it had been to waste so much time on such a problem.

    On his way home, he found his old tail on the roadside. {#blank#}7{#/blank#}it looked terrible, Johnny was still excited to have it back. He picked it up and was about to continue his journey when an idea hit him {#blank#}8{#/blank#}he shouldn't look at the past. He then dropped his old tail, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(leave) with it all his past worries. All he took with him {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) thoughts of the future.

    China has splendid culture with a long history. Chinese opera is one of the{#blank#}1{#/blank#}(old) dramatic art forms in the world.

    I crossed the street to avoid {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (meet) towards him, but he saw me and came {#blank#}2{#/blank#}（run） towards me.

No matter how busy you are, he always insists on {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (come) with you. I had to think of a way of {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (prevent) him from {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (follow) me around all morning.

    "Hello, Nigel," I said. "Fancy {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (meet) you here!"

    "Hi, Elizabeth," Nigel answered. "I was just wondering how to spend the morning—until I saw you. You're not busy {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (do) anything, are you?"

    "No, not at all," I answered. "I'm going to …"

    "Would you mind my {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (come) with you?" he asked, before I had finished {#blank#}11{#/blank#} (speak).

    "Not at all," I lied, "but I'm going to the dentist."

    "Then I'll come with you," he answered. "There's always plenty to read in the {#blank#}12{#/blank#} (wait) room!"
