Paper Horse and the Falling Scrap - 適合初學者的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

Kit's palms rest on cool wood. A grandmother stands at the glue zone. Paper smells sweet here. Kit stays still.

Kit leans near the base sheet. Smooth wood presses under her forearms. A pale dried glue ring circles a corner. Two glued pieces sit at the top. The big sheet lies at the center.

A fresh paper horse rests beside them. One edge shows wet shine. A thin glue smear stays milky at that edge. Thin green strips line the top edge like grass. Kit watches the center. A long strip blocks part of it. Kit tilts her head left. Now the horse shape is clear.

A tiny scrap teeters on the rim. It is at risk. A soft draft crosses the table. The scrap slips into the bowl. It makes a small tap. The grandmother says, "All tidy." She steps toward the open window.

Kit 的手掌貼在涼涼的木頭上。祖母站在黏膠區。這裡有淡淡的膠水甜味。Kit 保持不動。

Kit 在底紙旁身子一靠。平滑的木頭頂住她的前臂。淡淡的乾膠圈住一個角落。兩張貼好的小紙片在頂端。大張底紙平放在中央。

一匹新的紙馬在它們旁邊。邊緣有濕亮。那個邊上還有一條發白的薄薄膠痕。細長的綠紙條沿著頂邊排成一列，像草。Kit 看著中央。一條長紙條擋住了一部分。Kit 把頭微微偏左。現在馬的形狀很清楚。

一小片紙屑在碗緣晃動。它有風險。柔和的風從桌面掠過。紙屑滑進小碗。發出輕輕一聲。祖母說：「都整齊了。」她朝開著的窗邊走去。
