She is a beautiful red-haired girl. She has been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. It was1 outside. We all stood there under the 2 , just outside the door.
Her voice was so sweet that it 3 the dull (沉闷的) surroundings (环境). “Mom, let’s run through the rain,” she said.
“What?” Mom asked.
“Let’s run through the rain!” she repeated.
“No, honey. We’ll wait4 it slows down a bit,” Mom replied.
This young child waited about another5 and repeated: “Mom, let’s run through the rain.”
“We’ll get wet if we do,” Mom said.
“No, we won’t, Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said as she 6 her Mom’s arm.
“This morning? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”
“Don’t you remember? When you were7 to Daddy about his cancer, you said, ‘If God can get us through this, he can get us through8 !”
The crowd became 9 . Nothing could be heard but the rain. No one came or left in the next few minutes.
Mom thought for a moment about what she would say. “Honey, you are right. Let’s run through the rain. If we get wet, maybe we’ll just need to get a wash.” Mom said.
Then off they ran. People all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they rushed past the cars and through the puddles(水坑). They held their shopping bags over their heads. They got wet through. But they were 10 by a few who laughed like children all the way to their cars.

Smiling is the most attractive human behavior. The power of smiling can work out many wonders. I love to take a walk around the small neighborhood where I live. Whoever I meet on the way, they always give me a friendly greeting with a nice smile as soon as our eyes contact 1 . I smile back. This kind of smiling exchange represents the most 2 part of my jogging experience in the States.
My daughter's smile is just like sunlight, which warms me inside the same way 3 the sun warms my body. It can clear away any clouds and unpleasant feelings. The smile of my wife, however, makes me enjoy the 4 of an elegant woman, it can sometimes relax me quite a lot.
Julia Robert's 5 is nothing but roaring like an earthquake. Americans may have 6 opinions in many things, but they all agree that Julia is America's sweetheart. Her laugh plays a very good part in her acting. Once I tried some candy in a store, the owner asked me how sweet the candy is, I said sweeter than Julia Robert. 7 both of us broke into a kind of Julia's laugh. Yes, laugh is something we can not do without. Otherwise, our life would be too 8 .
Smiling does not belong to human alone. Once I stayed at an American home and he had a little dog named Mini. When I held her gently and asked her to give me a little smile, 9 just opened her mouth wide and half closed her eyes, looking like smiling.
