Snail on the Orange- 適合初學者的英語短篇故事

Leo walks into the park. The sky is clear noon. His picnic task waits quietly. He carries one bright orange. A slow snail crosses grass. The snail reaches the orange. Leo spreads a small cloth. He places the orange down. The snail climbs onto the peel. Its shell glints under sun. Leo watches the slow visitor. Soft wind moves the grass.

The snail blocks the fruit. Leo lifts a wide leaf. The leaf shows neat oval. He slides it beside snail. The snail crawls onto the leaf. Its trail forms shining oval. Leo blinks at the shape. He sets the leaf nearby. Now the orange is free. Leo peels the thick skin. Sweet scent floats around cloth. Tiny pieces drop on blanket. Juice sparkles under bright noon. The quiet park stays still now.

Leo 走進公園。天空正午晴朗。野餐的小任務靜靜等著。他提著一顆鮮橘。緩慢的蝸牛爬過草地。蝸牛抵達橘子。Leo 鋪開小布。他把橘子放下。蝸牛爬上果皮。牠的殼在陽光下閃閃。Leo 注視這位慢游客。柔風拂動草葉。

蝸牛擋住水果。Leo 拿起寬葉。葉面呈橢圓形。他把葉放在蝸牛旁。蝸牛爬上那片葉。牠的滑痕畫出閃亮橢圓。Leo 眨眼看著形狀。他把葉放在一旁。現在橘子自由了。Leo 剝開厚皮。甜香瀰漫布面。細皮片落在毯上。汁水在正午陽光下閃耀。寧靜的公園此刻保持靜止。
