Crash on the Piano- 適合初級的英語短篇故事

Soft morning light rested on the kitchen table.

Lucas wanted to finish one tune on the piano. He could play before the milkman stopped at the gate. He sat, lifted the lid, and stretched his small fingers. Outside, birds sing over slow wheels on the road. A bottle clink shocked the cat near the bench. The cat jumped up and pressed random keys.

The sudden chords rang in equal bright bursts. Lucas slipped, nudged a full glass of milk. White liquid raced across the smooth wood floor. The cat refused to obey his waving hands. Milk reached the pedals and made them slide. Lucas grabbed a cloth and wiped the mess. The clean pedals shone, and the tune flowed clear. The road bell rang; the milkman rolled past smiling. Lucas closed the lid with calm keys in order. He placed two fresh bottles beside the door. Two fresh bottles stood beside the door.

柔和的晨光灑在廚房桌上。

路卡斯想在鋼琴上完成一首小曲。在送奶工抵達大門前，他可以彈完。他坐下，掀起琴蓋，伸展小手指。屋外，小鳥在緩慢的車輪聲上方歌唱。瓶子叮噹聲把長椅旁的貓嚇了一跳。貓跳上來，隨意壓下琴鍵。

突來的和弦以均衡而亮的爆聲響起。路卡斯滑了一下，碰倒滿杯牛奶。白色液體奔過光滑的木地板。貓不理他揮動的雙手。牛奶流到踏板，讓它們打滑。路卡斯抓起抹布，擦掉那災難。乾淨的踏板閃閃發亮，旋律再次流暢。公路上的鈴聲響起，送奶工微笑著騎過。路卡斯闔上琴蓋，讓琴鍵安靜排好。他把兩瓶新鮮牛奶放到門邊。兩瓶新鮮牛奶立在門旁。
