The Spark inside the Pencil- 適合初學者的英語短篇故事

Morning light covers the small garden. The sun is warm. Lina sits on a low stone. She holds a short pencil. Before school, she draws a tree. The pencil tip snaps suddenly. Wood dust falls onto her hand. Her eyes open wide. No sharp point touches the paper. A small rock rests nearby.

She rubs the pencil against it. Grey shavings spiral to the grass. A fresh point starts to shine. Tiny dots sparkle inside the wood. They look like a quiet universe. Lina taps the paper gently. Stars appear around the drawn tree. The page now shows sky and garden. A bell rings from the road. The picture stays bright on stone.

晨光灑在小花園。陽光溫暖。莉娜坐在矮石上。她拿著一枝短鉛筆。上學前，她畫一棵樹。鉛筆尖突然斷裂。木屑落在她的手上。她眼睛睜大。紙上沒有尖端碰觸。一塊小石頭就在旁邊。

她把鉛筆在石頭上磨。灰色刨屑旋落在草上。新的尖端開始發亮。木頭裡閃出細小星點。它們像靜靜的宇宙。莉娜輕點紙張。星星圍繞著畫好的樹浮現。紙頁現在呈現天空與花園。路邊鈴聲響起。畫面在石頭上依然明亮。
