Explanation:

- The passage discusses the impact of sharing positive feedback, describing it as a minor act of kindness that can have significant positive effects.

- The blank (2) requires a word that describes the minimal requirement needed to perform this act.

- Option 1, "venture," implies a risky or daring journey, which doesn't fit the context of the passage.

- Option 2, "work," indicates labor or a task, but suggests more effort than what's implied in the passage.

- Option 3, "effort," is suitable because it indicates a small amount of energy required, aligning perfectly with the concept of "almost no" resource needed.

- Option 4, "attempt," signifies a try at doing something, which could imply more initiative than just minimal investment.
