Every act of kindness starts with something small, something we all can — and should — do every single day.
I’ m Will Rubio, one of the ____1____ of BYUtv’s Random Acts show. We take hidden cameras to unexpected places to ____2____ random acts of kindness. We’ve filmed acts ____3____ from building disabled­friendly facilities (设施) for those who are badly ____4____ them but can’t afford them to returning a lost wallet.
On Random Acts, it may be a neighbor or a colleague who ____5____ a need and sets off an incredible chain reaction of service. ____6____ the story of Emmalene Meyers for example, like many young girls, Emmalene was ____7____ to be a ballet dancer — but her physical disability makes even everyday tasks a(n) ____8____. Instead of seeing a limitation, Emmalene’s friend Lily ____9____ an opportunity. Lily imagined Emmalene’s dream being brought to life onstage and persuaded Random Acts to help make her plan _____10_____.
So, where can you start? The key is to be like Lily: look for an opportunity to make a _____11_____ to those in need, and then take action to make it happen eventually. Being _____12_____ and involved in service is _____13_____ like any other goal you want to achieve. You have to _____14_____ it.
After two seasons of hosting Random Acts, the joy of _____15_____ burdens and brightening lives doesn’t fade. I sometimes _____16_____ Random Acts might lose its feature eventually, but that was far from the _____17_____. When I finally meet the people we’ve been working to _____18_____and see their genuine shock and appreciation, it _____19_____ my heart every time. I cry more than anyone else on the show.
Be that person doing acts of _____20_____ out of the goodness of your heart — be the nice you want to see in the world!

My friend often kept the courtyard clean and tidy without any ___22___. But I was so lazy.

In the early spring, by the stone bench on the left side of the courtyard, several green buds ___25___. In the late summer, the grass really ___26___. They were shaped like those forest orchids, ___27___ they were yellow, unlike those forest ___28___ orchids, whose flowers were purple or brown red. I picked one flower and some leaves and found a friend who botanized. On ___29___ them, my friend immediately asked me where I picked them. After that, he ___30___ me, “You are going to get rich!” I looked at my friend in ___31___. He excitedly explained, “This is a kind of ___32___ orchid. At the flower market, the orchids are worth at least 10, 000 dollars each.”
I called to tell the incredible ___33___ to the friend who had gone to work in the south. At this, my friend was ___34___. After a while, he said gently, in fact, the orchid ___35___ the earth every year, but he thought it was a (n) ___36___ weed, so he uprooted it each spring just as it sprouted. My friend couldn’t help ___37___, “I have almost destroyed a kind of rare flower.”

What’s the difference between travel and tourism? Well, being a traveller is ____41____ just being a holiday maker. A holiday is just a short time away, and it normally ____42____ relaxation. Tourists stay in holiday resorts, not travellers. Travellers go for the ____43____ and their journeys are usually much longer and more ____44____. For example, travellers always avoid tourist traps and like to go off the ____45____ track to discover new places. Travel is an age-old phenomenon, but tourism is a ____46____ recent invention. Thomas Cook is often described as the first travel ____47____ because he arranged the first “package tour”: a 19-kilometer trip for 500 people, in 1841.
Going overseas in order to experience a different way of life is ____48____ many people think of as travel, but travel does not necessarily ____49____ going abroad. How many people can _____50_____ they have visited every part of their own country? Many people who live in _____51_____ countries such as Russia and the USA have only visited a small part of their own country. And so _____52_____ travel is also very exciting. It’s a surprising fact that 75 percent of US citizens do not _____53_____ a passport, so travelling does not mean leaving their country for them.
Some people can’t travel or don’t like the _____54_____ reality of travelling to faraway _____55_____. These days it is easy to be an “armchair traveller”. People can visit distant _____56_____ of the world or even little known parts of their own country _____57_____ leaving their living room. Television documentaries make the world a small place and some people _____58_____ that travel is no longer necessary.

Growing up, I was always fortunate to be around well-tended gardens at my parents’ and my grandparents’ homes. My grandfather was considered quite “green-fingered”, as there were always ___81___ flowers in his garden. Not only was it a nice one in the ___82___ sense, but what he ___83___ in it was also often on the dinner table, so it was also a very ___84___ garden.
I decided to turn my hand to growing some plants recently. I only have a small balcony to ___85___ my horticultural activities, but that has not ___86___ me at all. It’s possible to ___87___ a nice “garden” even in the most ___88___ space. I had already ___89___ to grow some flowers, but couldn’t ____90____ the difference between those and weeds, so my ____91____ and efforts turned to something much more practical: ____92____.
I took the ____93____ of one little tomato and planted them in a number of pots. After several weeks, I was ____94____ to see 15 tomato plants on my balcony in different ____95____ of growth. I keep my fingers crossed that one day they will ____96____ me something very practical indeed: some tasty tomatoes.
In this age when we have such fast-paced lives and ____97____ modern technology for so much, it’s very ____98____ to see this greenery on my balcony and to engage in a practice as old as time itself. ____99____, plant life is the most basic and oldest “technology” on our planet.

On the morning of my 60-year-old day, I decided to complete at least one act of kindness for each coming day. Unexpectedly, I did two ___161___ on the day.
This morning, I chose a small local coffee shop ___162___ large one with crowded customers. I wanted to pay for someone’s ___163___ . Knowing that cash（现金）wouldn’t be ___164___ , I buy a gift card. I gave it to the ___165___ and suggested what she might do with it.
Then this afternoon, while ___166___ in line at the casher’s in the supermarket, I noticed an elderly lady behind me with a few cakes. I asked if she’d let me ___167___ them. In a heavy German accent（口音）, she smiled but ___168___ . I didn’t want to force it, and I ___169___ to her what I was doing. She said she had only been here for a couple of days, but wouldn’t forget all the ___170___ that she was seeing! And that gave me ___171___ to stick to my thought.
The second one happened when I walked back home. I ___172___ at the crossroad and the yellow lights began to ___173___ . When I started to cross the road, I felt a car wasn't going to ___174___ , so I had to stop and continue to wait. The ___175___ then had her window down, saying, “I’m sorry.” I just said “that’s ___176___ ,”instead of offering her a few “unspeakable words”. It seemed like a ___177___ reaction（反应）for me, not a forced ___178___ . Forgiving others sometimes was also an act of kindness, which made me feel ___179___ .

My family and I went to the Mall of America during the peak of the holiday shopping season. We used to have a ___181___ in one of the food restaurants and it was overcrowded. People were standing waiting for ___182___ to free up.

As I ___187___ I was shocked at the lack of ___188___ people had when it came to cleaning up after themselves. They would just ___189___ their garbage, spilled drinks and more. He was never ____190____ this and never stopped smiling and saying, “Enjoy your day!” to everyone he met.
I was almost moved to tears. As my family ____191____our meals I made sure we cleaned up very well so he had one ____192____ table to hurry to clean.

I said I wasn’t giving it to him for payment or for a ____196____. I was giving it to him because I knew he had a good ____197____ and they can be hard to find these days!
