《The Neighborhood Scavenger Hunt》封面

Mai and Duc join the neighborhood scavenger hunt. Every team gets a list of clues. The first clue is easy to solve.

梅和杜克参加了社区寻宝游戏。每支队伍都拿到一张线索清单。第一条线索很容易解开。

"Find the red bench near the school," Mai reads. They find the bench and grab the next card.

“找到学校附近的红色长椅。”梅读道。他们找到了长椅,拿起了下一张卡片。

The next clue says, "Look where water meets stone."

下一条线索写着:“去水与石相遇的地方看看。”

Duc thinks about the old stone fountain downtown. Mai thinks about the small pond near the garden. Two places seem to match the same clue.

杜克想到了市中心那座古老的石头喷泉。梅想到了花园附近的小池塘。两个地方似乎都符合同一条线索。

"We only have time for one place," Duc says. "We need to pick carefully," Mai says.

“我们只有时间去一个地方。”杜克说。“我们得慎重选择。”梅说。

They read the clue again, word by word. "Water meets stone," Mai repeats slowly. "A fountain has water hitting stone every second." "A pond just sits still and quiet."

他们又把线索一个字一个字地读了一遍。“水与石相遇。”梅慢慢地重复道。“喷泉里的水每一秒都在撞击石头。”“池塘只是静静地待在那里。”

"The fountain fits the clue," Duc says. "Let's run there right now," Mai says.

“喷泉符合线索。”杜克说。“我们现在就跑过去吧。”梅说。

They race toward the old stone fountain. A small card waits taped to its edge.

他们朝古老的石头喷泉飞奔而去。一张小卡片贴在喷泉边缘等着他们。

Duc grabs it and reads it fast. "Congratulations! Your team solved every clue," it says. "Your prize is the rooftop garden picnic."

杜克一把抓过来,飞快地读着。“恭喜!你们队解开了所有线索。”上面写着。“你们的奖品是屋顶花园野餐。”

Mai claps her hands together with joy. "Our choice was the right one," she says.

梅开心地拍起手来。“我们的选择是对的。”她说。

They run toward the community center together. A small picnic waits for them on the roof. Sandwiches, juice, and a shiny gold ribbon sit ready.

他们一起跑向社区中心。屋顶上有一份小小的野餐在等着他们。三明治、果汁,还有一条闪亮的金色缎带,都准备好了。

Duc picks up the ribbon and smiles. "Great team choice today," he says.

杜克拿起缎带,笑了。“今天团队选得真棒。”他说。
