Narrator: Once upon a time, in a sunny forest, there lived a thirsty crow.

Crow: (Thinking) How can I get to that water? I can't reach it with my beak.

Narrator: The crow had an idea. It began to drop pebbles into the pitcher, one by one.

Crow: (Dropping pebbles) If I drop enough pebbles, the water level might rise.

Narrator: As the crow dropped pebble after pebble into the pitcher, the water level started to rise.

Pitcher: (Gurgling) Glug, glug, the water level is rising.

Narrator: Finally, the water was high enough for the crow to drink.

Crow: (Drinking happily) Ah, that's refreshing!

Narrator: The crow had used its intelligence to solve the problem and quench its thirst.

Narrator: The end.

烏鴉與水瓶

 

三個角色:

• 旁白

• 烏鴉

• 水瓶

旁白:很久很久以前,在一片陽光明媚的森林中,住著一隻口渴的烏鴉。

烏鴉:(四處張望)哦,我好渴。我需要喝水。

旁白:烏鴉四處尋找,找到了一個裝有水的水瓶。但是水太少了,烏鴉夠不到。

烏鴉:(思考中)我該怎麼取到那個水?我的喙夠不到它。

旁白:烏鴉有了一個主意。它開始一個接一個地往水瓶裡扔石頭。

烏鴉:(扔著石頭)如果我扔足夠多的石頭,水位可能會上升。

旁白:隨著烏鴉一個接一個地將石頭扔進水瓶裡,水位開始上升。

水瓶:(咕咕地)咕嚕,咕嚕,水位上升了。

旁白:最後,水位對於烏鴉來說已經夠高,可以喝到水了。

烏鴉:(開心地喝著)啊,真是解渴!

旁白:烏鴉用智慧解決了問題,解渴了。

旁白:結束。
