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.
