| [00:01.32] | 3 At Avonlea school |
| [00:06.28] | When school started in September, |
| [00:10.05] | Anne and Diana walked there and back together every day. |
| [00:15.32] | 'What a beautiful day,'Anne said happily one morning, |
| [00:22.18] | as the two little girls walked across the fields. |
| [00:26.03] | 'I'm very lucky to have you as my best friend,Diana. |
| [00:32.81] | You are my best friend,aren't you?' |
| [00:36.96] | 'Of course,Anne,'replied Diana,taking Anne's hand. |
| [00:43.66] | 'And just think,today you'll meet Gilbert Blythe. |
| [00:49.51] | He's three years older than us,and very good-looking. |
| [00:55.13] | He's just come back from holiday,and starts school today.' |
| [00:59.29] | 'Oh,boys!'said Anne.'I'm not interested in them.' |
| [01:06.53] | But she did look at Gilbert when they arrived at school. |
| [01:12.06] | He was a tall boy,with curly brown hair and a friendly smile. |
| [01:18.46] | 'He is good-looking,'Anne whispered to Diana, |
| [01:24.32] | 'but why does he smile at me?He doesn't know me!' |
| [01:29.53] | Avonlea school was quiet that day.The teacher,Mr Phillips, |
| [01:37.64] | was helping some of the older children at the back of the schoolroom. |
| [01:42.20] | Anne was looking out of the window at the reds and yellows of the trees, |
| [01:48.11] | and the silvery blue of the river. |
| [01:51.04] | She was far away in the world of her imagination. |
| [01:56.40] | But Gilbert wanted her to look at him. |
| [02:00.81] | He whispered to her,but she did not move. |
| [02:05.73] | He was surprised.Girls were usually very ready to look at him. |
| [02:11.56] | Suddenly he put his arm out,pulled her red plaits, |
| [02:17.28] | and said in a loud whisper,'Carrots!Carrots!' |
| [02:23.07] | Anne jumped up and looked angrily at Gilbert. |
| [02:28.15] | 'You horrible boy!'she cried.'I hate you!' |
| [02:34.16] | And then she brought her heavy book down on Cilbert's head. |
| [02:39.56] | Mr Phillips heard the noise,and came slowly to the front of the schoolroom. |
| [02:46.76] | 'Anne Shirley,why did you do that?'he asked. |
| [02:53.85] | She stayed silent.Gilbert said,'I'm sorry,Mr Phillips. |
| [03:01.23] | I was rude to her.That's why she hit me.'But the teacher did not listen to Gilbert. |
| [03:09.52] | 'I cannot have bad children in my school,'said Mr Phillips firmly, |
| [03:16.80] | 'Anne,go and stand in front of the class.' |
| [03:21.36] | And there Anne stood for the rest of the day, |
| [03:27.28] | a lonely little girl with a small white angry face. |
| [03:34.12] | 'I hate Mr Phillips!'she thought. |
| [03:39.75] | 'And I'll never look at or speak to Gilbert Blythe again!' |
| [03:46.30] | The next day some of the school children |
| [03:51.12] | were playing in a farmer's field in their lunch hour, |
| [03:54.93] | so they were a little late for afternoon school. |
| [03:58.58] | Anne ran into the classroom at the same time as the boys,just after the teacher. |
| [04:05.53] | 'You're late,Anne,'said Mr Phillips.'You won't sit with Diana today. |
| [04:13.29] | I see that you enjoy being with the boys very much, |
| [04:18.17] | so go and sit next to Gilbert this afternoon.' |
| [04:22.30] | Anne's face went white.'He can't mean it!'she thought. |
| [04:30.78] | 'Did you hear me,Anne?'asked Mr Phillips. |
| [04:36.44] | 'Yes sir,'said Anne and moved slowly to Gilbert's desk. |
| [04:42.76] | There she sat down and put her head on the desk,with her arms over it. |
| [04:50.69] | 'This is the end,'she was thinking. |
| [04:56.20] | 'I wasn't the only person who was late. |
| [05:00.97] | And he's sent me to sit with a boy!And that boy is Gilbert Blythe!' |
| [05:11.34] | The rest of the day went very slowly for Anne. |
| [05:16.70] | When it was time to leave,she went to her desk,next to Diana's, |
| [05:23.14] | and took all her books,pens and pencils with her. |
| [05:28.15] | 'What are you doing,Anne?'asked Diana. |
| [05:33.77] | 'I'm not coming back to school,'replied Anne firmly. |
| [05:39.85] | 'Oh!But Anne…we're reading a new book next week… |
| [05:45.94] | and we're playing a new game on Monday,and…It'll be very exciting! |
| [05:51.91] | And you'll miss it,Anne!' |
| [05:54.37] | But Anne was not interested.'I'm sorry,Diana,'was her only answer. |
| [06:03.47] | That evening Marilla ran round to Rachel Lynde's house. |
| [06:10.16] | 'Rachel,please help me!Anne says she won't go back to school. |
| [06:19.18] | What am I going to say to her?' |
| [06:22.16] | Mrs Lynde already knew about Anne's troubles at school, |
| [06:28.19] | and she was always very pleased when people asked her to help. |
| [06:34.79] | She smiled and sat back comfortably. |
| [06:37.47] | 'I've had ten children myself,so I know all about them,'she said. |
| [06:45.65] | 'Anne can stay at home for a while. |
| [06:49.29] | She'll want to go back to school again soon,I'm sure.' |
| [06:54.40] | So Anne stayed at home,and only saw Diana in the evenings. |
| [07:01.43] | She was a child who felt very strongly. |
| [07:05.92] | She hated Gilbert Blythe,but she really loved Diana. |
| [07:12.33] | One evening Marilla found Anne crying in the kitchen. |
| [07:18.24] | 'What's the matter,child?'she asked in surprise. |
| [07:23.94] | 'I love Diana very much,'sobbed Anne. |
| [07:30.48] | 'I can't live without her,Marilla! |
| [07:34.00] | But what will happen when she marries?I hate her husband already! |
| [07:41.19] | I can imagine her in the church in her long white dress…and then she'll go away! |
| [07:48.35] | And I'll never see her again!' |
| [07:52.87] | Marilla turned away to hide her smiling face. |
| [07:58.97] | What a strange,funny child Anne was! |
| [08:03.63] | Marilla tried not to laugh,but she couldn't stop herself. |
| [08:08.67] | 'You and your imagination,Anne Shirley!'she cried,and she laughed and laughed. |
| [08:18.64] | Mrs Lynde was right,of course. |
| [08:22.37] | After a few days Anne decided to go back to school. |
| [08:27.00] | All the children were pleased to see her again,but she did not speak to Gilbert Blythe. |
