Paper Cup Pops and Shakes the Swing Chain - 適合初級的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

Remy sprinted from the path to the swings with a plan.

He bent a long twig under the rubber seat edge.

He wedged its end with a round pebble on the stepping stone.

He pressed a crumpled paper cup flat beside the pebble.

"Here it goes," Remy said, and he lifted his hand.

A dry bark smell sat near the oak trunk.

The cup sprang open and pushed the pebble a finger-width.

The pebble rolled off, and the twig end slipped free.

The twig snapped forward and flicked the swing seat edge.

The rubber flexed and sent a shiver into the chain.

The links creaked in a short metal tune above him.

A fresh paint chip bent, then sprang off near the hook.

It tapped the stepping stone and skittered toward the puddle.

A tiny splash dotted Remy's cheek with cool water.

He slid his shoe in and stopped the pebble's path.

Near the hedge, a small dog's tail thumped the grass.

Beyond the hedge, a quiet street ran along the park.

The top chain link still vibrated.

Remy 從小徑衝向盪鞦韆，心中有個主意。

他把一根長細枝彎在橡膠座邊下方。

他用踏石上的一顆圓卵石卡住枝條末端。

他把一個揉皺的紙杯壓扁，放在卵石旁邊。

「開始囉，」Remy 說，然後他抬起了手。

橡樹樹幹附近有股乾乾的樹皮味。

紙杯彈開，推動卵石移動了一個手指的寬度。

卵石滾開了，枝條末端鬆脫出來。

枝條彈向前方，輕彈了鞦韆座的邊緣。

橡膠彎曲回彈，把一陣細震傳進鏈條。

鏈節在他頭上發出短短的金屬旋律聲。

一片新脫落的漆片彎了一下，接著在鉤子附近彈落。

它輕敲踏石，又疾滑向水窪。

一點小水花濺起，點在 Remy 的臉頰上，冰涼。

他把鞋尖伸進去，攔住了卵石的路。

樹籬旁，一隻小狗的尾巴拍打著草地。

樹籬外，一條安靜的街道沿著公園延展。

最上面的鏈節還在微微振動。
