Amy said not to worry, Mr. Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone. , Jane was growing more nervous with each step to the man’s house. When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his usual frown (皱眉), but when he saw Amy, a broad changed his entire face as he said, “Hello, Miss Amy. You’ve got a little friend with you today.”
Amy smiled back and told him Jane was staying overnight and that they were going to play games. Dawson said that sounded fun, and them each a fresh apple off his tree. They gladly accepted. Dawson had the best apples in town.
When they got Dawson’s earshot (听力范围), Jane asked, “Everyone says he’s the meanest man in town. he was so nice to us?”
Amy explained that at first he wasn’t friendly and she was afraid of him, but she he was wearing an invisible (看不见的) smile, so she always smiled at him. It took a while, but one day he -smiled back at her.
After some more time, he started smiling real smiles and then started to her. Just a “hello” at first, then more, and now always plus an apple.
“An invisible smile?” Jane.
“Yes. My grandma said if I pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back, sooner or later he would really smile. Grandma says are contagious (传染的).”
