故事時間｜FEATHERS FROM A THOUSAND LI AWAY(05)

Now the woman was old. And she had a daughter who grew up speaking only English and swallowing more Coca-Cola than sorrow. For a long time now the woman had wanted to give her daughter the single swan feather and tell her, “This feather may look worthless, but it comes from afar and carries with it all my good intentions.” And she waited, year after year, for the day she could tell her daughter this in perfect American English.

單字在下面唷！

single (adj.) 單一個的

worthless (adj.) 沒有價值的

afar (adv.) 遙遠

intention (n.) 意圖、打算

我們看完這篇小故事了！單字不多，但是個值得慢讀的文學作品。《喜福會》有全新的三十週年中譯本，有興趣可以去試閱看看，比較一下中文和英文讀起來的感覺！

喜歡這次的分享嗎？有特別想讀什麼也歡迎留言🤗明天是新的開始，我也要來找新題材了！
