我的大踢，大踢，作者杰克·加博林西，插画简·麦克唐纳

Today I had an exciting day. I took my new ball to school. When I got home, I sat down to have a sandwich and an apple. My mother asked me, "What did you do at school today?"

今天我度过了令人兴奋的一天。 我把我的新球带到学校。 当我回到家，我坐下来吃了一个三明治和一个苹果。 妈妈问我:“你今天在学校做什么了?”

I told my mother about my amazing kick. "I kicked my new ball as hard as I could and it went up above the school. It flew high over birds and chimneys. "It just kept going up, up, up! It went so fast that it looked like a jet plane flying through the sky.

我跟妈妈说了我神奇的踢腿。 “我用尽全力踢我的新球，它飞到了学校上空。 它高高飞过鸟群和烟囱。 “它一直在上升，上升，上升!”它飞得如此之快，看起来就像一架喷气式飞机飞过天空。

"My ball went faster and faster. It flew faster than a helicopter. It went right over bridges and high towers in the city. "It went faster than a plane as it flew through the clouds. It flew past an eagle high over the mountains.

“我的球飞得越来越快。 它比直升机飞得还快。 它直接从城市的桥梁和高塔上飞过。 “它在云层中飞行的速度比飞机还快。 它从高山上飞过一只鹰。

"My ball flew past a lighthouse and over ships on the sea. Some whales saw it flying by. "The ball flew further and further. It was going as fast as a flash of lightning.

“我的球飞过一座灯塔，飞过海上的船只。 一些鲸鱼看到它飞过。 球飞得越来越远。 它跑得像闪电一样快。

"Some people in India saw-it going by. 'What was that?' they asked. Was it a jet plane?' Was it a rocket? Or was it a flash of lightning?' "But it wasn't any of those things. It was just my new ball.

“印度的一些人看到了它的过去。 “那是什么?”他们问。 是喷气式飞机吗?”是火箭吗? 还是一道闪电?’”但事实并非如此。 那只是我的新球。
