While walking across an open, grassy field, I became excited as my hand swooped toward the ground like an eagle attacking its prey.
我走在一片开阔的草地上,就像老鹰捕食一样,我兴奋地将手朝草地里抓去。

I picked up half of a $5 bill. I continued to walk around looking for the other half but thought to myself it would be impossible to find it on such a windy day.
我捡到了半张5美金,我继续向前寻找另外半张,但是在这样一个大风天,我感觉到应该是找不到了。

As I lifted my head, I spotted the other half of the bill tangled in crabgrass.
我抬头时发现,另外一半缠在一片杂草中。

Somehow, finding two halves of a ripped $5 bill felt better than working for a twenty.
捡全一张撕破的5美金比挣到20美金,在某种程度上还要让我开心~
