Cross the Street
Jimmy wanted to cross the street. He was on the south side of the street. He wanted to get to the north side of the street. He was in the middle of the block. His father always told him to cross at an intersection. His father always said never cross in the middle of the block. Jimmy walked to the intersection. There was a traffic light at the intersection. It had three colors red, green, and yellow. Red was at the top. Green was at the bottom. Yellow was in the middle. He looked at the crosswalk sign. It was red. It was a red hand. The red hand meant Don’t Walk. He waited for the red hand to change. It changed to a white figure walking. The white figure walking meant Walk. Jimmy looked both ways. Then he walked across the street. He walked in the crosswalk.
吉米想過馬路。他站在馬路的南面。想去馬路的北面。他位于街區中間。父親告訴他在十字路口過馬路。不要在街區中間過馬路。吉米走到十字路口。那里設有指示燈。有紅綠黃三種顏色。紅色在上面。綠色在下面。黃色在中間。他看到了人行橫道指示燈。指示燈是紅色。是一個大大的紅手。“紅手”意思是禁止通行。他等待“紅手”變燈。指示燈變成了“小白人行走”。“小白人行走”的意思是可以通行。吉米向左右看了看。他通過了馬路。他在人行橫道通過了馬路。
