Ink Drips and a Loose Nozzle on the Plank - 適合初級的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

Ines pumped the bottle, and a fine spray rose.

Max slid a small plank under two pots for support.

An ample towel covered the table to catch drips.

A soft clay smell sat near the damp soil.

"I can mist the back row," Ines said.

Max nodded and held a small jar of seeds.

A page with wet ink lay near the pots.

The spray drifted sideways and wet the page edge.

Black lines spread into small dark streaks.

A drop ran off and spotted the plank below.

Max rolled a toy car; the wet spot made it skid.

Then the nozzle popped loose, and the spray widened suddenly.

Dots landed on Max's math sheet near his elbow.

He counted by threes, a factor of twelve, while waiting.

"It still runs," he said, watching the little car.

Ines set the bottle down on the towel.

They changed their order for watering and drying papers.

First, Max moved the pages far from the towel.

Then Ines started at the far pots and worked forward.

Water stayed on leaves, and the plank dried in stripes.

Max lifted the jar, and the car rolled straight.

Ines turned the nozzle tight and placed the bottle upright.

A single drop slid to the towel and sank.

伊內絲按下瓶身，細緻的水霧升起。

麥斯把一塊小木板塞到兩盆植物下方當支撐。

一條寬大的毛巾鋪在桌上接住水滴。

靠近潮濕土壤的地方有淡淡的陶土味。

「我可以噴後面那一排，」伊內絲說。

麥斯點頭，手裡拿著一小罐種子。

一張沾著濕墨水的紙放在花盆旁邊。

水霧往旁邊飄去，弄濕了紙的邊緣。

黑色的線條擴開，變成細小的深色痕。

一滴水溜下來，滴在下方的木板上。

麥斯推動玩具車；濕點讓它打滑了一下。

這時噴頭鬆開了，水霧一下變得更寬。

小水點落在麥斯手肘旁的數學講義上。

他用三為單位數著，因為三是十二的因數。

「它還在跑，」他說，盯著那輛小車。

伊內絲把瓶子放回毛巾上。

他們改變了順序，先處理澆水和晾紙。

首先，麥斯把紙移到離毛巾更遠的地方。

接著伊內絲從較遠的花盆開始，往前澆水。

水停在葉片上，木板上出現一道道乾痕。

麥斯抬起小罐子，玩具車直直地滑過去。

伊內絲把噴頭轉緊，立好瓶子。

一滴水滑到毛巾上，慢慢滲進去。
