Explanation

'Smile at' is the correct phrasal verb when someone is reacting to something with a smile - the object of the smile is what prompted it. 'Smile on' means to show favor, 'smile over' isn't idiomatic, and 'smile upon' is incorrect. The sentence describes someone smiling in reaction to words.
