中文故事

在一个乡村（rural）的村庄里，面包师巴塞洛缪遇到了一个奇怪的问题。他迄今为止（hitherto）一直很可靠的烤箱似乎失去了它的魔力。新鲜出炉的面包那令人愉悦的香味（scent）被淡淡的烤焦吐司味取代了。巴塞洛缪担心他无法完成（accomplish）他每天的面包制作指标。他想，也许一颗流弹子弹（bullet）不知何故损坏了烤箱的内部结构，这个想法在他的宁静的围场（enclosure）里显得十分离奇。他决定停止（discontinue）烘焙一天来调查，希望能恢复烤箱的魔力。

英语故事

In a rural village, Bartholomew the baker had a peculiar problem. His hitherto reliable oven seemed to have lost its touch. The delightful scent of freshly baked bread was replaced by a faint smell of burnt toast. Bartholomew worried he wouldn't accomplish his daily baking quota. He thought perhaps a stray bullet had somehow damaged the oven’s inner workings, a wild idea for his quiet enclosure. He decided to discontinue baking for a day to investigate, hoping to restore the oven’s magic.
