Unit 25 Hot Air Ballon Ride
第25單元 坐熱氣球
The sun was hanging high in the sky and there was just the right amount of wind. It was a perfect day to take a hot air ballon ride. Lucy loved it when her Uncle Tom took her up in his hot air ballon.
太陽高掛在天空，風的大小也剛剛好，實在是個坐熱氣球的好日子。露西的叔叔帶她去坐熱氣球時，露西好喜歡。
There were only a few days a year when the weather was just right and the wind was just so.
一年之中只有幾天的天氣和風量適合用來坐熱氣球。
Uncle Tom lifeted Lucy into the basket. She lonvd the smell of the gas used to heat the ballon. It remined her of other trips she had taken.
湯姆叔叔把露西舉起來放進氣球的吊籃里。她喜歡用來將氣球加熱的瓦斯味道，這會讓她想起之前坐熱氣球的回憶。
Uncle Tom lit the flame and slowly the ballon rose from the ground and was soon sailing high in the clouds.
湯姆叔叔把火點著后，氣球便慢慢從地面升起，很快便高高飄上云端。
From far up, Lucy could see her whole town. It was a small town. She could see the bank where her mom worked. She could see her school. She could even see her house.
從遠處的高空，露西看到她居住的整個小鎮。她看到她媽媽工作的銀行，也看到她的學校，甚至連她家都看到了。
She was flying in the sky, the wind blowing in her hair, and the whole world spread out beneath her. Lucy thought riding in a ballon was magical.
她在天空中飛呀飛，風兒吹過發際，整個世界綿延開來，盡收眼底。露西覺得坐熱氣球真是迷人。
