The Surprise Recording- 適合初級的英語短篇故事

Soft morning sunlight slowly warmed the small park.

Mia carried a tiny sound recorder in her bag.

Her project needed clear bird song for science class.

She stopped under a lively maple near the pond.

Bright leaves moved with a gentle breeze overhead.

Short chirps echoed between the branches and water.

Mia placed the recorder on a wooden bench nearby.

She counted ten seconds then turned to watch ducks.

A sudden gust slid the recorder across the bench.

The small device tumbled and rolled under the seat.

Mia knelt, but her fingers could not reach the recorder.

She looked around and saw a thin stick on ground.

She poked the stick under the seat and dragged it.

The plastic body scraped against pebbles and turned upward.

At that moment, a wild eagle swept across the pond.

Its broad wings stirred air and startled smaller birds nearby.

Loud cries filled the microphone before Mia pressed stop.

She replayed the file and heard flapping then clear silence.

An unexpected scream from the eagle followed the flapping noise.

Mia's lips lifted in a hopeful curve as she listened.

She saved the clip and closed the recorder.

柔和的晨光慢慢溫暖了小公園。

Mia 把一台小錄音機放在背包裡。

她的作業需要錄到清晰的鳥鳴給自然課使用。

她停在池邊一棵生氣蓬勃的楓樹下。

樹上亮綠的葉子在輕柔的微風裡搖動。

短促的啾啾聲在枝葉與水面之間迴盪。

Mia 把錄音機放到一張木長椅上。

她數到十後轉身看鴨子。

突然的一陣風把錄音機吹過長椅。

小機器翻滾後滑到椅子底下。

Mia 跪下，但指尖碰不到錄音機。

她四處張望，看到地上一根細棍。

她用棍子伸進椅下把機器拖出來。

塑膠外殼磨過碎石，旋轉著翻上來。

就在這時，一隻野生老鷹掠過池面。

寬大的翅膀攪動空氣，驚起旁邊的小鳥。

響亮的叫聲在 Mia 按停前灌滿麥克風。

她回放檔案，先聽到拍翅聲，接著是一片寧靜。

老鷹突如其來的一聲長鳴緊跟著傳出。

Mia 的嘴角向上勾起一抹帶著期盼的弧度。

她存下片段，闔上錄音機。
