[Story] I’d like to specialize in eagle training because I’m glad when I see them in the sky. One day, I swam to a remote island where the population of eagles is four times that of the mainland. I found a seat on a rocky cliff and watched as the majestic birds kept their balance on the strong winds. It was a disappointing moment when the famous eagle trainer, Garth Brooks, arrived. I’d always wanted to achieve my dream of training eagles, but now it seems like a breaker of my plans. Nevertheless, I made it into the yearbook for my special interest in eagles, despite the disappointing turn of events.
[参考翻译] 我想专门研究鹰的训练,因为每当我看到它们在天空中飞翔时,我感到很高兴。有一天,我游到了一个偏远的岛屿,那里的鹰的数量是大陆的四倍。我找到了一个岩石悬崖上的座位,看着雄伟的鸟儿在强风中保持平衡。当著名的鹰训练师加斯·布鲁克斯到来时,这是一个令人失望的时刻。我一直想实现我的训练鹰的梦想,但现在看来我的计划泡汤了。尽管如此,我因为对鹰的特别兴趣进入了年鉴,尽管事态的发展让人失望。
