中文故事

在热带(tropic)的土地上,一只好奇的章鱼(octopus)决定成立一个委员会(committee)。它的目标是理解海洋的氛围(ambience)。然而,这个计划开始扰乱(disrupt)往常的平静。其他的海洋生物担心这个崇高(exalted)的想法可能是对真正海洋和谐的糟糕隐喻(metaphor)。它们宁愿享受能带来沉思的宁静,而不是嘈杂的集会。

英语故事

In the tropic lands, a curious octopus decided to form a committee. Its goal was to understand the ambience of the ocean. However, this plan began to disrupt the usual calm. The other sea creatures worried that this exalted idea might be a poor metaphor for true oceanic harmony. They preferred the quiet that allowed for contemplation, not a noisy assembly.
