英语散文:宁静的海滩 Quiet Beach
The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim’s mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’ d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring of the freezer had been the sea. Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’ d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea. He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’ d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table: Gone to Michael’s Back tonight, Tim. |
