Outside His Window
他的窗外
His apartment is on the seventh floor. He can see the busy street from his bedroom window. The sidewalk is often crowded with people. The sidewalk is wide. It's about 20 feet wide. New York City has many wide sidewalks. He can see several stores. One store is a clothing store. Two stores are shoe stores. A nearby building has a shiny silver smokestack. It's a tall, skinny smokestack. It's 15 stories tall. Pigeons fly above the street. They land on building ledges. The ledges are beneath the windows. Two or three pigeons land on the same ledge. They sit there for a while. Then they fly away. Yesterday he saw a red balloon. It was as big as a soccer ball. It rose to his eye level. It quickly rose higher. In seconds it was gone. Where is it today? It might be floating over the cold, blue Atlantic.
他的公寓在7層。他從臥室的窗戶能夠看到繁忙的大街。人行道上總是擠滿了行人。人行道很寬。有大約20尺寬。紐約城有許多寬廣的人行道。他能夠看到許多商店。一家是服裝店。還有兩家鞋店。旁邊的建筑有一個(gè)閃閃發(fā)亮的銀色煙囪。這是一個(gè)高聳的細(xì)長煙囪。有15層樓高。鴿子從大街上飛翔而過。它們停在了建筑的壁架上。壁架在窗戶下面。兩三只鴿子停在一個(gè)壁架上。它們會(huì)停一會(huì)。之后飛走了。昨天他看見了一個(gè)紅色氣球。它和足球一樣大。氣球飛到了與他眼睛持平的高度。之后迅速上升。轉(zhuǎn)眼間就不見了。它今天在哪？它或許正在寒冷，蔚藍(lán)的大西洋上飛行。
