摘要
To her surprise, the old man suddenly laughed. His face changed, and Mary thought how much nicer a person looks when he laughs. The old man turned towards the little bird’s garden, and began to make a soft, kind sound. Then a wonderful thing happened. The little bird flew down and stood on the ground near the old man’s foot. “Where have you been, little one?” the old man asked quietly. He spoke to the little bird as if it were a child. “I haven’t seen you at all today.” The little bird put his head on one side and looked at the old man. He was so pretty and he made Mary feel happy. “Does he always come when you make that sound?” she asked. “Yes, he does.” “What is he?” she asked. “Don’t you know? He’s a robin. They’re very friendly little birds. He knows that we’re talking about him now. He likes to hear people talk about him.” And the old man laughed. He seemed to like the little robin very much. 令她奇怪的是，老人忽然笑出声来。他的神情变了，玛丽想，人笑起来的样子要好看得多。 老人转向有小鸟的那座花园，开始发出一种温柔、慈爱的声音。然后发生了一件奇妙的事，那小鸟飞下来，落在老人的脚边。 “你刚才上哪儿去了，小东西？”老人轻声问道。 他和小鸟说话时就像它是一个小孩子那样：“我今天一整天都没见到你啊。” 小鸟歪着头，看着老人。它很好漂亮，玛丽心里很高兴。 “你一发出那种声音，它就会过来吗？”她问道。 “是的，它每次都来。” “它是什么鸟？”她问道。 “你不知道吗？它是一只知更鸟。知更鸟是友善的小鸟。现在它知道我们在谈论它。它喜欢听别人谈论自己。”老人笑了。他好像很喜爱这只小知更鸟。
