When the children went to the farm to visit Grandpa and Grandma, they always had fun. The game they liked most was the paper trail. First Grandma got a surprise ready. She put some things in a yellow box. Grandpa got some pieces of paper.

当孩子们去农场看望爷爷奶奶时，他们总是玩得很开心。 他们最喜欢的游戏是书面记录。 首先，奶奶准备了一个惊喜。 她把一些东西放在一个黄色的盒子里。 爷爷拿了几张纸。

Grandpa walked all the way across the farm. He left a trail of papers, and then he hid the yellow box. "The paper trail is ready now," said Grandma. "Follow the trail to find the surprise. Ready, set, go!"

爷爷一路走过农场。 他留下了一串文件，然后把黄盒子藏了起来。 “书面记录已经准备好了，”奶奶说。 “沿着小路去寻找惊喜。 准备，出发!”

The children ran across the farm, following the trail. First they found some paper tied onto the gate. They saw the second piece of paper stuck on the roof of the shed.

孩子们顺着小径跑过农场。 首先，他们发现一些纸绑在门上。 他们看到第二张纸贴在小屋的屋顶上。

The children found the third piece on the tractor seat. The next piece was tied on the fence. They followed the trail to the pond. There was some more paper in the bushes.

孩子们在拖拉机的座位上发现了第三块碎片。 下一块被系在篱笆上。 他们沿着小路来到池塘。 灌木丛里还有一些纸。

One boy found a big piece of paper stuck on the old scarecrow's hat. Some paper was tied onto the bridge over the river. They saw three more pieces floating away in the water.

一个男孩发现老稻草人的帽子上贴着一张大纸。 一些纸被绑在河上的桥上。 他们看见又有三块碎片漂在水里。
