An old man lived in a nice house with a large garden. He took care of his f 1. all the time, watering and fertilizing(施肥) them.

One day a young man went by the garden. He looked 2. the beautiful flowers, imagining(想象) how happy he could be if he lived in such a beautiful place. Then, suddenly he found the old gardener was blind. He was very surprised about this and asked, “You can't see these flowers. 3.are you busy taking care of them every day?”

The old man smiled and said “I can tell you four reasons. First, I was a gardener when I was young, and I really like this job. Second, though I can’t see these flowers, I can touch them.

T 4. , I can smell the sweetness of them. As for the last one, that’s you. ”

“Me? But you don't know me,” said the young man.

“Yeah, it’s true that I don't know you. But I know that flowers are angels that everybody knows. We enjoy the happiness these flowers have brought us.”

The blind man’s work opened our eyes and pleased our hearts, which also made his life happier. It was just like Beethoven, who became 5. in his later life and wrote many great musical works. Beethoven himself couldn’t hear his wonderful music, but his music has encouraged(鼓勵) millions of people to face their difficulties bravely. Isn’t it one kind of happiness?

When Archie was walking alone through the town, he found a stranger with a big frown(皺眉). The man looked at Archie unhappily, which made Archie a little angry. So Archie frowned back at him. Then the man ran away in surprise.

While Archie was walking alone, he looked at the people around him. He found that no one seemed happy and that most of them frowned. Archie didn’t know why so many people frowned at each other while passing through the town.

Then a clever idea came into Archie’s head. He would not wear a frown. Instead, he would smile. Although it seemed funny at first, he gave it a try. Archie smiled at the people who were walking past him. And to his surprise, most of them smiled back. Archie thought his idea was great. Everybody seemed happier because of the smile of a clever young boy.

And it took only a smile to bring hope to the town. So when you see a frown, put a smile on your face and you’ll find that the world is a happier place.
