Question

Reading (Poem) 

Read the following poem carefully. 

A SMILE 

1. Smiling is infectious, 

You catch it like the flu, 

When someone smiled at me today. 

I started smiling too. 

2. I passed around the corner, 

And someone saw my grin, 

When he smiled I realized, 

I'd passed it on to him. 

3. I thought about that smile, 

Then realized its worth, 

A single smile, just like mine, 

Could travel round the earth. 

4. So, if you feel a smile begin, 

Don't leave it undetected. 

Let's start an epidemic quick. 

And get the world infected.
