Sample from Hormigas Ocupadas – Busy Ants Spanish Level 1
Hola, soy la cuarta en la fila. ¿Puedes verme?
Izquierda, derecha, izquierda, derecha. Caminamos silenciosamente en línea.
Tengo una idea.
¡Voy a conseguir un par de ruedas para moverme más rápido!
No somos tan ruidosos como otros animales.
Nuestro lenguaje es el de los olores
Por ejemplo, un tipo de olor dice:
“Síganme, por este camino hay un banquete”
Otro dice: “¡Peligro! No vayas ahí.”
Yo amo los pasteles y todo tipo de dulces, quizás como tú.
¿Quieres ver mis músculos en acción?
No hay problema si la puerta esta cerrada.
Puedo entrar por los espacios más pequeños.
Lo crean o no, cientos de nosotras vivimos felizmente en una colonia.
<end of sample from Busy Ants Spanish story>
Aprendamos palabras nuevas
Pequeño – Grande
Lento – Rápido
Bajo – Alto
Delgado – Gordo
Duro – Blando
Ruidoso – Tranquilo
Esas son palabras con sus opuestos.
¿Puedes hacer una oración con ellos?
Por ejemplo: “Una hormiga es pequeña, un
elefante es grande”.
