Each following car of kids on their way to school 30 more heartily. Every morning I continued to watch the man with 31. So far I have

49、nt seen anyone 32 to wave back. I find it interesting that one person can make such a(n) 33 to so many peoples lives by doing one simple thing like waving and smiling warmly. His 34 armed the start of my day. With a friendly wave and smiling face he had changed the 35 of the whole neighbourhood.16.
