Fading Puddle and Toy Crab- 適合初學者的英語短篇故事

Plip plip echoes near the stream.

Fenna stands on a flat rock.

She sees a shrinking puddle.

Warm sun dries the shallow water.

Tiny rings pop then vanish.

A faint earthy smell slips away.

Beside a root, a toy crab rests.

Cool drip from a leaf taps it.

Each drip lifts red paint flakes.

The bright shell grows pale streaks.

A wild rose bush leans nearby.

A market paper bag hangs nearby.

A loose handle swings and squeaks.

Soft light flickers through moving leaves.

The stream smells fresh and cold.

Fenna looks back at the puddle.

Only damp sand glitters there now.

Ants crawl across the drying sand.

A thin worm wriggles then hides.

Water whispers over quiet pebbles.

啪嗒啪嗒的水聲在小溪旁迴盪。

芬納站在平坦的岩石上。

她看見一個正縮小的水窪。

溫暖的陽光讓淺水變乾。

細小的水圈彈出又消失。

微弱的土味漸漸散去。

在樹根旁，一隻玩具螃蟹躺著。

葉尖的涼滴輕敲著它。

每一滴水都沖走一些紅色漆片。

亮殼上出現淡淡的條紋。

旁邊有株野薔薇斜伸。

一個市場紙袋掛在一旁。

鬆動的提把來回晃動並吱呀作響。

柔和的光線穿過搖動的葉子閃爍。

溪水帶著清涼的氣味。

芬納回頭再看那水窪。

只剩濕濛的沙面在閃光。

螞蟻爬過逐漸乾燥的沙粒。

一條細小的蚯蚓扭動後躲起來。

水流在寧靜的卵石上低語。
