Story Content
English Original
Sam holds a small ball. He stands by a hollow tube. The tube rests on cold sand. Cold air lifts fine sand. He rolls the ball forward. The ball reaches the opening. A sharp stone blocks space. The ball stops before stone. Sam taps the stone gently. The stone tips and shifts. A big beetle crawls out. Its shell clicks three times. The beetle walks into grass. Sam slides the stone aside. He rolls the ball again. Nearby water stays calm today. Bird calls echo above trees. Cool shade covers the sand. The calm tube stays clear. The ball stays inside.
繁體中文 Translation
山姆拿著一顆小球。他站在一根中空管子旁。管子放在冰冷的沙地上。冷空氣吹起細沙。他把球往前滾。球來到管口。一顆尖石擋住空間。球停在石前。山姆輕輕敲石頭。石頭傾斜並移動。一隻大甲蟲爬出來。牠的殼喀喀響了三下。甲蟲走向草叢。山姆把石頭推到一旁。他再次滾動球。附近的水面今天很平靜。鳥鳴在樹梢迴響。涼爽的樹蔭覆蓋沙地。管子保持通暢。小球停在裡面。
