Tina and her brother had a new babysitter(临时保姆)—Mrs. Green. "I heard Mrs. Green didn't like singing or playing games and never made cakes. I don't like her." Tina told her mother. "But Mrs. Green is kind," said her mother.
Tina decided to do something bad to make' Mrs. Green leave. On the first day, she broke three cups. The juice dropped on the sofa. The next day, she fought with her brother. On the third day, she hid Mrs. Green's glasses. But Mrs. Green didn't tell Tina's mother.
Tina soon got tired of doing bad things to Mrs. Green. "Well, I see someone has decided to accept me,"Mrs. Green said to Tina. "You knew?" Tina asked. "I've been around children all my life."Mrs. Green said." And do you know what l see when I look at you?" "You must think I'm a bad girl," Tina said. But what Mrs. Green said surprised her. "I see a girl who is old enough to play games with her brother. I see a girl who is old enough to learn to make cakes. I could teach you,"Mrs. Green said. "lf you'd like me to."
"Yes, please!" Tina said. Then she added, "Sorry that I did so many bad things."
"That's OK,"Mrs. Green said. "Now, what's your favorite kind of cake?"
