午休小驚喜| 英語/中文 雙語朗讀
Story Content
English Original
Ben sat at his desk in the small newsroom office.
The clock showed noon, so break time finally arrived.
He wanted quiet minutes with a sandwich and fresh newspaper.
The front page hinted at stories about model train hobby groups.
Ben opened the window for air and unwrapped his lunch.
A sudden breeze flipped the newspaper across the keyboard.
The moving pages pushed his coffee toward the desk edge.
The cup tipped, coffee flowed, and papers scattered everywhere.
Liquid reached the phone, which slid against a file tower.
Folders toppled onto the floor with soft dull bumps.
Ben jumped up, grabbed several newspaper sheets, and pressed them down.
The paper soaked the coffee and cleared space for eating.
One wet page showed a photo of his wooden train.
He blinked, surprised to see his weekend project there on paper.
The mess stopped spreading, and the room settled into quiet.
He took another bite of sandwich.
繁體中文 Translation
班恩坐在小型新聞部辦公室的書桌前。
時鐘指向中午，終於到了休息時間。
他想安靜地享受一份三明治並翻閱一份新報紙。
頭版提到模型火車同好社團的故事。
班恩打開窗戶透氣，並拆開午餐。
突然一陣風把報紙翻到鍵盤上，頁面推動咖啡杯向桌邊滑去。
杯子傾倒，咖啡流出，文件四散。
液體觸到手機，手機滑向紙堆，資料夾跟著倒在地板上發出悶聲。
班恩跳起來，抓起幾張報紙按住濕處。
紙張吸走咖啡，桌面重新騰出空間。
他在一頁濕紙上看到自己的木製火車照片，忍不住眨眼。
混亂停止，房間再次安靜。
他又咬了一口三明治。
