中文故事

从前，有一位面包师，他有多余的（surplus）面粉。他知道他的烤箱是有限的（finite），所以他不能永远烘烤。有一天，一只狡猾的（sly）狐狸走了进来，看起来很可疑（suspicious）。狐狸想弄明白（figure）面包师是如何做出如此美味的面包的。面包师紧紧地（grip）握着他的擀面杖，决定承诺（pledge）一个秘密：“这全是关于快乐！”他说，而狐狸，出乎意料地，明白了。

英语故事

Once upon a time, there was a baker who had a surplus of flour. He knew his oven, sadly, was finite, so he couldn't bake forever. One day, a sly fox walked in, looking quite suspicious. The fox wanted to figure out how the baker made such wonderful bread. The baker, with a firm grip on his rolling pin, decided to pledge a secret: 'It's all about the joy!' he said, and the fox, surprisingly, understood.
