Mr Dawson was an old man with a bad temper (脾氣), and everyone in town knew it. Kids couldn’t go into his yard to pick a delicious apple, even off the ground.

One Friday, 　46　 Janet was going to stay all night with her friend Amy. They had to walk by Dawson’s house 　47　 the way to Amy’s house. But when they got close to Dawson’s house, Janet saw him 　48　 in the front porch and suggested they crossed over to 49　 side of the street. Like most of the children, she was afraid of the old man 50　

the stories she had heard about him.

　 Amy told Janet 　51　 . Mr Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone. Still, Janet was growing

52　 nervous with each step closer to the old man’s house. When they got close enough,

Dawson looked up with his usual frown, but when he saw it was Amy, he suddenly smiled and said, “Hello, Miss Amy. I see you’ve got a little friend with you today.”

Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight and they were going to listen to music and play games. Dawson gave them each an apple of his tree. When they got out, Janet asked Amy，“Everyone says he is hard to get along with, but why he is so friendly

　 53　 us?”

Amy explained, at first he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him, but she pretended he was wearing an invisible (看不見的) smile and so she always smiled back at him. It 　 54　 a long time, one day he half-smiled back at her.

“An invisible smile?” asked Janet.

“Yes.” answered Amy. “My grandma told me if I pretended not to be afraid of him and I smiled at him, he would really smile　 55　 . Grandma says smile is contagious.” ( 有感染力的)

If we remember what Amy’s grandma said that everyone wears an invisible smile, we will find that most people can’t resist(抗拒)our smile after a while.
