Miss Dinsmore lived (单独地) in a little gray house. "It's a nice little house，" she said. "But I wish it looked more cheerful. Maybe I should paint it a (明亮的), pretty color." So she went to a paint store. She saw lots of cheerful colors there, but she didn't know which color to choose.
(突然) she got an idea. "I'll paint picture after picture of my house with all these colorful colors. Then I'll choose the one I like best." Miss Dinsmore bought all the colors home. She painted a pink house. She painted a blue one. She painted a red one and a yellow one. She painted one with flower boxes under the windows and she (继续) painting again and again...
She hung each picture she painted on the wall. All of her pictures were pretty. She still couldn't decide (哪一种) color to choose. One day, while Miss Dinsmore was painting, a (邻居) came by. He liked the pictures of the house so much that he told the (整个的) town. Lots of people came to the little house. "What pretty pictures，" everyone said, "and what a nice house you have."
Now the little house was often (充满的) of people looking at the pictures, drinking tea, talking, laughing and having fun. Miss Dinsmore (微笑) and said, "It is a nice little house. It's a cheerful little house, too—(尤其) when good friends came to see me. It is as cheerful as cheerful can be."
