The next morning, I went to work early and     2     (张贴) them up by the sinks and mirrors in the office restrooms. Maybe someone else would enjoy the quotes     3     (如同我一样) I had. And perhaps it     4     (may) just freshen their day.

For the next few months, some of the quotes     5     (take) down. But I noticed that a couple remained. Eventually, I finished out my contact     6     that organization, but I’d still often get emails from my former boss and teammates.

A few months ago, I was invited to reunion with my     7    (同事) .     8     I no longer worked in this office, I had really enjoyed     9     (work) with my team and was happy to see them again. Towards the end of the event, I went to the bathroom and found a quote that I     10     (write) two and half years earlier was still up in the same spot by the mirror. It reads: “The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands, but seeing with new eyes” ——Marcle Proust.

She returned the shop the following morning     8     in a fur coat, with a handbag in one hand and a long umbrella in the other.
