Dawson was an old grouch (脾气坏的人), which everyone in town knew. Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick a delicious   41  , even off the ground, because old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun.

One Friday, 12-year-old Jane and her friend Amy were on the way to Amy’s house, but as they got close Jane saw Dawson sitting on his front porch (前廊) and   42   they cross over to the other side of the street. She was   43   of the old man because of the stories she’d heard about him.

Amy said not to worry, Mr. Dawson wouldn’t hurt anyone.   44  , Jane was growing more nervous with each step   45   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   46   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   47   them each a fresh apple off his tree. They gladly accepted. Dawson had the best apples in town.

When they got   48   Dawson’s earshot (听力范围), Jane asked, “Everyone says he’s the meanest man in town.   49   he was so nice to us?”

Amy explained that at first he wasn’t friendly and she was afraid of him, but she  50   he was wearing an invisible (看不见的) smile, so she always smiled   51   at him. It took a while, but one day he  52  -smiled back at her.

After some more time, he started smiling real smiles and then started  53   to her. Just a “hello” at first, then more, and now always plus an apple.

“An invisible smile?”  54   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  55   are contagious (传染的).”

We’re always  56   trying to accomplish so much, getting groceries, cleaning the house, mowing the lawn… It’s so easy to get  57  in everyday life that we forget how  58   it can be to bring cheer to ourselves and others. Giving a smile away  59   so little effort and time. Let’s make sure that we are not the one that  60   have to pretend is wearing an invisible smile.
