When the Bottle Tipped- 適合初級的英語短篇故事

Luca placed a small paper boat in the gutter stream.

Cool air floated above the wet street.

Rain water pushed under it with a quick, lively winter spirit.

The sharp bow showed ambition, slicing a path along the curb.

A gentle whistle slid from a toy around his neck.

The tone shook a loose leaf floating ahead of the boat.

The leaf swung sideways and lodged over the narrow drain.

Water rose behind the leaf and formed an immense puddle.

The puddle lifted a small plastic bottle of clear household spirit.

The bottle rolled, tipped, and poured the liquid into the stream.

The sharp smell mixed with rain, sending bright ripples around Luca's shoes.

Affection appeared as his dog brushed his knee and wagged.

The dog's paw nudged a small stone loose from the curb.

The stone dropped, wedged beside the leaf, and split the flow.

Two thin streams hurried around the stone toward the street corner.

路卡把一艘小紙船放進路旁的水溝。

涼爽的空氣漂在濕濕的街道上。

雨水推著紙船，帶著輕快的活力往前流。

尖尖的船頭像有抱負般劃開水面。

他脖子上的玩具發出輕柔的哨聲。

那聲音搖動前方漂浮的落葉。

落葉一轉，卡在狹窄的排水孔上。

落葉後方的水位升高，變成一個巨大的水窪。

水窪托起一瓶透明的家庭用清潔溶劑。

瓶子翻倒，液體倒進水流。

刺鼻的味道和雨水混合，在路卡鞋邊畫出亮麗波紋。

當狗擦過他的膝蓋並搖尾巴時，親暱的氣息隨之出現。

狗爪推動一顆小石頭，讓它從路邊鬆開。

石頭掉落，卡在落葉旁，把水流分開。

兩條細細的水線繞過石頭，奔向街角。
