On one pleasant afternoon, Ben was late. I went to his house andclimbed upstairs tohis smallbedroom.He was sitting there making akite.

“What s with the kite?”I said, “I thought we were going swimming.”

Ben smiled at me and said, “We need the kite for swimming.”

“Who goes swimming with a kite?”I asked.

“I do,”Ben said.His blue eyes wereshining.

With such a clever friend, Igot used tohearingcrazyideas.I justshookmy head, “I d like to see how you do it.”

Half an hour later, we were standing on thebankof the pool.Ben held his crazy kite in one hand and a log(圆木) in the other.He sat on the bank, took off his shoes, and tied the end of the kitethreadto his foot.Then he flew the kite into the air and let the wind catch it.The kiteroseover the swimming pool.

“This isfantastic!“I shouted.

Ben smiled at me andjumped intothe pool.He threw one arm over his log,leaned(倚靠) back, and let the kitepullhimacrossthe pool.

“Oh, I get it ! “I cried,“It s a flying sail!”

【汉语翻译】

飞航

在波士顿那个炎热的夏季,几乎每天下午,我都和最好的朋友本·富兰克林去附近的一个泳池(swimming pool)游泳。我们热爱那些漫长炎热的夏日。

在一个宜人的午后,本来迟了。我就去了他家,爬上楼(climb upstairs)来到他的小卧室(bedroom)。他正坐在那儿做一个风筝(kite)。

“用这个风筝干什么?”我说,“我本以为我们要去游泳的。”

本对我笑了笑说,“我们需要这个风筝去游泳。”

“谁会带着个风筝去游泳呢?”我问道。

“我会,”本说,他蓝色的眼睛闪闪发亮(shine)。

有这么一个聪明的朋友,我习惯于(get used to)听到疯狂的(crazy)想法。我只是摇摇头(shake),说,“我倒想看看你怎么做。”

半个小时后,我们来到了泳池的岸边(bank)。本一只手抓着他那荒唐的风筝,另一只手拿着根圆木。他坐在岸边,脱掉衣服,然后把风筝线(thread)的一端系在一只脚上。然后他把风筝放飞,让风带动它。风筝在泳池上空升起(rise)。

“这太棒了(fantastic)!”我大喊道。

本对我笑着,然后跳进(jump into)泳池。他一只胳膊抱着他的圆木,向后仰着,让风筝拉着(pull)他游过泳池。

“噢,我明白了!”大叫道,“这是一次飞航!”
