Flash Mob
A flash mob is a kind of an event. In that event, people do something surprising in a public place. It also means the group of people doing it. They make plans online and choose a time and place to meet. They create a flash mob to make others laugh and to make special memories. Anyone can participate, so find a flash mob and join in.
An above paragraph is from my English textbook. I haven't seen a flash mob because I live in the countryside. They usually do it in a big city. They do it to express their opinions or just for fun. Have you ever taken part in one? If you have, what was that for?

1. Your textbook actually says: "It also means the group of people doing it"? That is strange. It is very awkward language.
2. It is a "specific" paragraph, so use "the"
3. Flash mobs happen. People "carry out" flash mobs. People don't really "do" flash mobs.
Good work. If you have questions let me know.

Just some grammar corrections to the correction below: "It also means the group of people doing it." is a perfectly normal sentence. Nothing wrong here. Also, "do a flash mob" is a correct phrase as well, and used by native speakers - just check on Google.
