Outside His Window

他的窗外

His apartment is on the seventh floor. He can see the busy street from his bedroom window. The sidewalk is often crowded with people. The sidewalk is wide. It's about 20 feet wide. New York City has many wide sidewalks. He can see several stores. One store is a clothing store. Two stores are shoe stores. A nearby building has a shiny silver smokestack. It's a tall, skinny smokestack. It's 15 stories tall. Pigeons fly above the street. They land on building ledges. The ledges are beneath the windows. Two or three pigeons land on the same ledge. They sit there for a while. Then they fly away. Yesterday he saw a red balloon. It was as big as a soccer ball. It rose to his eye level. It quickly rose higher. In seconds it was gone. Where is it today? It might be floating over the cold, blue Atlantic.

他的公寓在7层。他从卧室的窗户能够看到繁忙的大街。人行道上总是挤满了行人。人行道很宽。有大约20尺宽。纽约城有许多宽广的人行道。他能够看到许多商店。一家是服装店。还有两家鞋店。旁边的建筑有一个闪闪发亮的银色烟囱。这是一个高耸的细长烟囱。有15层楼高。鸽子从大街上飞翔而过。它们停在了建筑的壁架上。壁架在窗户下面。两三只鸽子停在一个壁架上。它们会停一会。之后飞走了。昨天他看见了一个红色气球。它和足球一样大。气球飞到了与他眼睛持平的高度。之后迅速上升。转眼间就不见了。它今天在哪?它或许正在寒冷,蔚蓝的大西洋上飞行。
