Wooden Car Rolls Into the Sunbeam - 適合初學者的英文短篇故事，含中譯與發音

Floyd kneels by the pale wall. His knees rest on the soft folded rug. The weave presses his skin. A pale sun mark shows at the rug edge. The grandmother sits close. Her mug rests on the chair arm. Warm light rests on the wall. A gentle tea smell drifts.

Floyd lifts his open hands into the stripe. He opens them slowly. Thumbs touch. Fingers spread like wings. Wings open. A dark hand-shape lies on the smooth wall. Small wooden toys sit in order on the sill. Dust motes float in the bright beam.

A small wooden car rests in the stripe. It shifts on a slight tilt and rolls. The car’s shadow covers one wing tip. Floyd nudges the car with effort.

Floyd slides the car for a short ride. Then he turns it crosswise on the sill. He sets it back in order. His thumbs meet again; the wings look clear. "There it is," the grandmother says. The small wheel clicks on the sill.

Floyd 在淡色的牆邊跪著。他的膝蓋壓在摺好的柔軟地毯上。編織紋理頂著他的皮膚。地毯邊露出一條淡淡日曬痕。外婆坐在旁邊。她的馬克杯放在椅臂上。溫暖的光落在牆上。淡淡的茶香飄著。

Floyd 把張開的手伸進光帶。他慢慢打開它們。拇指相碰。手指像翅膀一樣張開。翅膀展開。牆上躺著一個深色手影。窗台上，小木玩具排成整齊一排。細小的灰塵在亮光裡漂浮。

一輛小木車停在光帶裡。它在微微的斜面上動了，然後滾起來。小車的影子遮住一邊的翅尖。Floyd 用點力推一下小車。

Floyd 把小車滑走一小段路。然後他把車橫放在窗台上。他把它放回整齊的位置。他的拇指再度相合，翅膀清楚了。外婆說：「在這裡了。」小輪子在窗台上輕輕一響。
