Who's Afraid Now? 是谁害怕？
 
A neighbor told us about a trip he took with his two-and-a-half-year-old son. It was the first time the father and the boy had been away by themselves.
The first night they spent in a hotel, the father moved his bed close to the boy's and when they were both tucked in, he turned out the light. After a few minutes, a little voice said, "It surely is dark, isn't it?" "Yes," said the father, "It's pretty dark, but everything is all right." There was silence for a few more minutes, and then a small hand reached over and took the father's hand, "I'll just hold your hand," said the little boy, "In case you get frightened."
一位邻居告诉我们，他曾带着两岁半的儿子旅行。这是父亲头一次带着儿子单独出门。
他们住在旅馆的第一个晚上，父亲将自己的床移近儿子的床。他们掖好被子后他就关了灯。几分钟之后，一个细小的声音说：“屋子里真够黑的，是不是？”“是的，”父亲说，“屋里是够黑的，但是一切都正常。”又过了一会儿，一只小手伸过来握住父亲的手。“我握住你的手，”小男孩说，“免得你害怕。”
