The Drop That Loosened the Hat - 適合初學者的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

A white hat rolls away. Rafael stands on the path. Garden duty starts for him. The hat rests near soil. Wet ground sticks to it. The grown-up sits reading. Rafael steps toward the hat. He grips the soft brim. It does not lift. He taps a fence post. The tap sends a faint echo. He slides a short stick under. A drop falls from brim. The soil loosens a little. Rafael lifts the hat free. He shakes soil away gently. He places it on bench. The grown-up nods and smiles. Morning light rests over flower beds. A bird chirps above the gate. Rafael stands quiet beside bench. The garden stays still now.

一頂白色帽子滾向前方。拉斐爾站在小徑上。今天輪到他做花園值日。帽子停在泥土邊。濕地把它黏住。大人坐在台階上看書。拉斐爾走向帽子。他抓住柔軟帽沿。帽子抬不起來。他敲了敲柵欄柱。敲擊聲在空中傳來回音。他把一根短棍滑進帽沿下。一滴水從帽沿落下。泥土稍微鬆動。拉斐爾把帽子提了起來。他輕輕抖掉泥土。他把帽子放在長椅上。大人點頭並微笑。晨光灑在花叢上方。一隻鳥在門上方啾啾叫。拉斐爾靜靜站在長椅旁。花園此刻保持安靜。
