There lived a man in a village. He was (unhappy) – man in the
world. All the villagers (was/ were/ are) — tired of him: he was always
nagging, always complaining, always grumbling. As years went (by/on/af-
ter) — he was becoming gloomier and gloomier and angrier and an-
grier. More and more people were trying to avoid him: his unhappiness was
getting infectious. He (madel did) - other people unhappy. But
once when he turned 80, something incredible happened. On that day, when
the old man went outside, he looked (happily/ happy) - He (not
to complain) - , was smiling and even his face looked different. The
whole village (to gather) — . (Anybody/ Somebody Everybody)
asked the old man, "What is the matter? Why are you smil-
ing? Why aren't you complaining?” And the old man answered, “For eight
years I (to try) to become happy and I failed. Then I decided to
live (without/ with/ along)
happiness. That's why I am happy."​
