二、完形填空

It began a year ago, around Christmas. Every time I drove down our street, I 16 an old man sitting in his

front yard. He was usually smoking or drinking, and looking rather unhappy.

One day, while I was driving past him with my 17 , I decided to wave at him with a lot of excitement. At

the beginning, when he noticed me waving at him, he looked a bit 18 . Then, I saw his hand go up and he

waved back.

“ 19 did you wave at him?” my daughter asked.

I told her it’s just an act of 20 that doesn’t cost anything. It gives both him and me a feeling of joy. My

daughter replied that she felt a bit uncomfortable to wave to a 21 , but next time she would try it as well.

We liked close to the old man, 22 we saw him rather often. Whenever we drove by, both of us would

start waving at him and, pretty soon, the old man started 23 at everyone who passed by his house.

One time, my daughter’s friend came to visit and she told my daughter that she saw this strange old man near

our home wave at her very 24 . She mentioned that she waved back, although she didn’t know 25 , and it

felt really good.

As soon as my daughter heard this, she told her friend the 26 of how all the waving began. Her friend

answered: “Tell your mom that’s really cool!”

Other friends gave similar 27 . This taught my daughter that an act of kindness can be natural and 28

, if you really want to do it. It showed us how giving happiness can do good to 29 the giver and the receiver.

Moved by the old man’s actions, we’re planning to give our waving neighbor a thank-you card to express our

thanks for his exciting waves. We are really thankful for him 30 his simple joy with all who pass by his

house.
