【课文】

The Wayle is a small river that cuts across the park near my home. I like sitting by the Wayle on fine afternoons. It was warm last Sunday, so I went and sat on the river bank as usual. Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people rowing on the river. Suddenly, one of the children kicked a ball very hard and it went towards a passing boat. Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat, but he did not hear them. The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water. I turned to look at the children, but there weren't any in sight: they had all run away! The man laughed when he realized what had happened. He called out to the children and threw the ball back to the bank.

威尔河是一条流经我家附近公园的小河。我喜欢在晴朗的下午坐在威尔河边。上个星期天很暖和，所以我和往常一样，去坐在河岸上。一些孩子在岸上玩游戏，还有一些人在河里划船。突然，其中一个孩子用力踢了一脚球，球朝着一只路过的船飞去。岸上的一些人朝着船上的那个人大喊，但他没有听见。球重重地击中了他，他差点掉进水里。我转过身去看那些孩子，但一个也没看见：他们都跑掉了！那个人意识到发生了什么事后笑了起来。他朝着孩子们大喊，并把球扔回了岸上。
