I was going to buy some fruits and medicine for my headache. After I parked my car, I went into the market. It wasn’t as 1 as I had expected. Only a few people were shopping in it.
In the market, I saw a little girl 2 in a shopping cart (车) . She looked to be 9 months old with blond curly hair and blue eyes.
She was such a lovely girl that I couldn’t 3 my eyes away. Then I did what I always do with children: I gave her my best smile. I may have looked a bit 4 , but it came from my heart.
I’ve learned that everyone 5 a smile sometimes, even strangers at the market in a rush to get home.
She took her time deciding just 6 to deal with my smile. But finally, she smiled.
I laughed and waved (挥手) goodbye. And she blew me a kiss.
That put a smile on my face and then I got a smile in 7 from every shopper I passed.
I was still smiling when I got home and 8 I’d forgotten to get medicine. Luckily. I didn’t need it. My headache was gone.
Want to change the world? Try smiling. In that simple 9 of everyone’s smiles, this tiring world would become a better place.
10 you’re lucky, you’ll be blown a kiss and it maybe make your headache go away.
