  • 가을 아침, 학교 버스가 수업 여행을 위해 출발했습니다.

    On an autumn morning, the school bus set off for a field trip.

  • 학생들은 모두 신이 나서 떠들었어요.

    The students were all excited and chatting.

  • 이번 여행 목적지는 바로 수족관이었습니다.

    The destination for this trip was the aquarium.

  • 추석 연휴라 모두들 기분이 더 좋았습니다.

    Because it was the Chuseok holiday, everyone was in an even better mood.

  • 민준은 창밖을 보며 생각했어요. "이번엔 꼭 발표를 잘해야 해."

    Minjun was looking out the window, thinking, "This time, I have to do well on my presentation."

  • 수족관 안에는 큰 거북이가 있다고 했습니다.

    It was said that there was a big turtle inside the aquarium.

  • 민준은 그 거북이에 대해 발표할 계획이었습니다.

    Minjun planned to present about that turtle.

  • 하지만 사람들 앞에서 말하는 게 항상 어렵게 느껴졌어요.

    However, speaking in front of others always felt challenging for him.

  • 수진은 민준의 곁에 앉아 있었습니다.

    Sujin was sitting next to Minjun.

  • "민준아, 발표 준비 잘 돼가?"

    "Hey Minjun, is your presentation preparation going well?"

  • 수진은 늘 적극적이었지만, 사실은 물고기를 무서워했습니다.

    Sujin was always proactive, but in reality, she was afraid of fish.

  • 수족관에 도착하자, 다은이 주변을 둘러보며 밝게 웃었습니다.

    When they arrived at the aquarium, Daeun looked around and smiled brightly.

  • 다은은 새로운 학생이었지만 바다 생물을 아주 좋아했습니다.

    Although she was a new student, she really liked marine life.

  • 민준과 수진도 다은과 함께 다니기로 했어요.

    Minjun and Sujin decided to go along with Daeun.

  • 안으로 들어가니, 커다란 수조들이 반짝였습니다.

    Inside, the large tanks were sparkling.

  • 물고기들이 산호 주위를 맴돌고 있었어요.

    Fish were swimming around the coral.

  • 그들은 먼저 거북이 수조로 갔습니다.

    They first went to the turtle tank.

  • 민준은 노트를 꺼내 거북이를 관찰했어요.

    Minjun took out his notebook and observed the turtle.

  • 그런데 다은의 목소리가 들렸습니다. "거북이는 이렇게 오래 살 수 있대."

    Then he heard Daeun's voice. "I heard turtles can live this long."

  • 너무 많은 정보를 들은 민준은 점점 혼란스러워졌어요.

    Hearing so much information, Minjun gradually became more confused.

  • "수진아, 도와주면 안 될까?" 민준은 걱정스러운 목소리로 물었습니다.

    "Sujin, could you help me?" Minjun asked with a worried voice.

  • 수진은 깊은 숨을 쉬고 대답했습니다. "그래, 도와줄게. 그리고 너도 도와줘."

    Sujin took a deep breath and answered, "Sure, I'll help you. And you help me too."

  • 둘은 다은과 함께 발표 준비를 했습니다.

    The two, along with Daeun, prepared for the presentation.

  • 드디어 발표 시간이 되었습니다.

    Finally, it was time for the presentation.

  • 민준은 무대에 올라섰어요.

    Minjun stood on the stage.

  • 처음 몇 마디는 떨리는 목소리로 시작했지만, 친구들의 지지와 도움 덕분에 점점 더 자신감이 생겼습니다.

    The first few words started with a trembling voice, but thanks to his friends' support and help, he gradually became more confident.

  • 수진은 잠시 물고기 옆에 서 있어야 했지만, 친구를 위해 용기를 냈습니다.

    Sujin had to stand next to the fish for a moment, but she mustered her courage for her friend.

  • 다은의 정보는 발표를 더욱 흥미롭게 만들었습니다.

    Daeun's information made the presentation even more interesting.

  • 발표가 끝나자 모두 큰 박수를 보냈습니다.

    When the presentation ended, everyone gave a big round of applause.

  • 민준은 자랑스러웠습니다. 발표를 잘 마쳤기 때문이었어요.

    Minjun felt proud because he had successfully completed the presentation.

  • 수진은 물고기에 대한 두려움을 잠시 잊었고, 다은은 친구들 사이에서 훨씬 더 편안해졌습니다.

    Sujin temporarily forgot her fear of fish, and Daeun felt much more at ease among her friends.

  • 그날, 수족관의 물결처럼 아이들의 마음속에도 새로운 변화의 물결이 일었습니다.

    That day, like the waves of the aquarium, a new wave of change arose in the hearts of the children.

  • 모두가 각자의 두려움을 극복하고, 더욱더 단단한 우정을 쌓았습니다.

    Everyone overcame their own fears and built even stronger friendships.
