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.

    Sheryl dropped the heart-painted rock into my bag, {#blank#}1{#/blank#} (say), “There's no charge for this. I want to give it you! ”

    Her loving energy had attracted me {#blank#}2{#/blank#} her display at the artisan's PopLocal party like a bee to a flower. We had {#blank#}3{#/blank#} heart-to-heart chat about {#blank#}4{#/blank#} she began painting rocks because of the white feather symbolism shared as {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(inspire) between her and an uncle and how it{#blank#}6{#/blank#} (eventual) developed into her “bee kind” mission.

    From her pocket she pulled a sweet little rock. {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (paint) like a bee, with the words “bee kind” on the back. “I paint and give these! ” she shared. “They are in so many {#blank#}8{#/blank#} (country) now, even one at the Great Wall of China! ”

    I asked if I could take some photos. I saw Sheryl's smile, and it just lit {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (she) whole fact. It just occurred to me that earlier in the day I gave away a heart-shaped “worry stone” and now I {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (give) a rock with a heart painted lovingly on it.

    I'm now a good student in my class. But you don't know that when I {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(start) senior English in the beginning, I found it difficult and quite {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(differ) from what I had learned in junior school. Now I still remember a teacher who taught me at that time. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} teacher is a good teacher because she always tried to be the one {#blank#}4{#/blank#} classes were made active and lively with some stories and examples.{#blank#}5{#/blank#} the help of the teacher, I realized the {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(important) of English, so I decided to learn English well. My teacher suggested that we{#blank#}7{#/blank#}(read) more if we wanted to improve our English, {#blank#}8{#/blank#}every day I would do some reading. She also told us lessons in class could help us deal with exams, but even more valuable were the lessons {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(learn) in extra-curricular activities in school. I like my English teacher very much.

    Now I have made {#blank#}10{#/blank#}great progress in my English study that I am more interested in learning it than before.

    The Chinese Culture Center in Paris, {#blank#}1{#/blank#}(locate) in downtown areas opposite the celebrated historic sites of Grand Palais and Petit Palais across the Seine River, {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(sit) next to a large number of grand handsome and elegant classical architectures that have witnessed the evolution of Paris at {#blank#}3{#/blank#} (vary) historical stages. It conforms to(符合) the status of China, a great power with {#blank#}4{#/blank#} lasting civilization of several thousand years in the East, {#blank#}5{#/blank#} (set) the Chinese Cultural Center in this exact place.

    The amazing progress in {#blank#}6{#/blank#} (smooth) selecting the site for the Chinese Culture Center and putting it into {#blank#}7{#/blank#} (operate) in downtown Paris in such a short period was due to high priority of the Chinese government and constructive cooperation of the French party. Wu Jianmin, Chinese ambassador to France,  said {#blank#}8{#/blank#}excitement, "We have our own cultural center in Paris at last, {#blank#}9{#/blank#}we have eventually realized the long cherished wish of my predecessor(前任) in the Chinese embassy." Hou Xianghua, the first director of the Chinese Cultural Center in Paris, said the center will stick to its "non-governmental" nature and greet people from all {#blank#}10{#/blank#} (walk) of life, in addition to serving the mainstream society.

    John Snow was a famous doctor {#blank#}1{#/blank#}was so expert that he{#blank#}2{#/blank#} (attend) Queen Victoria as her personal physician. But he became{#blank#}3{#/blank#} (inspire) when he thought about helping ordinary people{#blank#}4{#/blank#} (expose) to cholera. This was the{#blank#}5{#/blank#} (dead) disease of its day. Neither its cause nor its cure {#blank#}6{#/blank#}(understand). So many thousands of terrified people died every time there was {#blank#}7{#/blank#}outbreak. John Snow wanted to face the challenge and solve this problem. He knew that cholera would never be controlled until its cause was found. In 1854 when cholera broke {#blank#}8{#/blank#}, he began to gather information and found the evidence. It seemed that the polluted water was {#blank#}9{#/blank#} (blame). John Snow suggested the source of all water supplies{#blank#}10{#/blank#} (examine). Finally "King Cholera" was defeated.

Body language is one of {#blank#}1{#/blank#} most powerful means of communication, often even more powerful than {#blank#}2{#/blank#}(speak) language. People around the world show all kinds of feelings, wishes and attitudes that they might never speak aloud. {#blank#}3{#/blank#} is possible to "read" others around us, even {#blank#}4{#/blank#}they do not want us {#blank#}5{#/blank#}(catch) their unspoken communication. Of course, body language can be misread, but many{#blank#}6{#/blank#}(gesture) and actions are universal. The most universal {#blank#}7{#/blank#}(face) expression is, of course, the smile—its function is to show happiness and put people {#blank#}8{#/blank#} ease. It does not always mean that we are {#blank#}9{#/blank#}(true) happy, however. Smiles around the world can be false, hiding other feelings like anger, fear or worry. There {#blank#}10{#/blank#}(be) unhappy smiles, such as when someone "loses face" and smiles to hide it. However, the general purpose of smiling is to show good feelings.
