Sk: Adam a Zuzana stáli na kraji mesta.
En: Adam and Zuzana stood at the edge of the city.

Sk: Pred nimi sa rozprestierala udržateľná energetická farma.
En: In front of them stretched a sustainable energy farm.

Sk: Slnečné panely sa leskli na letnom slnku a veterné turbíny sa pomaly otáčali v jemnom vánku.
En: Solar panels gleamed in the summer sun, and wind turbines slowly turned in the gentle breeze.

Sk: Okolo nich boli domy postavené z ekologických materiálov.
En: Around them were houses built from eco-friendly materials.

Sk: Adam mal v rukách zošit, v ktorom si zapisoval poznámky o farme.
En: Adam held a notebook in which he jotted down notes about the farm.

Sk: Bol plachý a tichý, ale miloval environmentálnu vedu.
En: He was shy and quiet but loved environmental science.

Sk: Zuzana, jeho spolužiačka, bola opakom.
En: Zuzana, his classmate, was the opposite.

Sk: Bola zvedavá a plná energie.
En: She was curious and full of energy.

Sk: Pri vchode do farmy ich privítal sprievodca.

Sk: Ukazoval študentom rôzne technológie a vysvetľoval, ako fungujú.
En: The guide showed the students various technologies and explained how they worked.

Sk: Adam mal v hlave veľa otázok a poznámok, ale váhal.
En: Adam had a lot of questions and notes in his mind, but he hesitated.

Sk: Zuzana behala od jedného projektu k druhému, zvedavo skúmala všetko okolo seba.
En: Zuzana ran from one project to another, curiously exploring everything around her.

Sk: Bola z toho všetkého nadšená, ale aj trochu ohromená.
En: She was excited but also a bit overwhelmed by it all.

Sk: Sprievodca začal vysvetľovať, no Adam vedel, že môže doplniť viac informácií.

Sk: Zhromaždil odvahu a zdvihol ruku.
En: He gathered his courage and raised his hand.

Sk: "Môžem niečo povedať?
En: "Can I say something?"

Sk: " opýtal sa nesmelo.
En: he asked timidly.

Sk: Všetky oči sa otočili na neho.
En: All eyes turned to him.

Sk: Zuzana bola prekvapená, ale usmiala sa povzbudivo.
En: Zuzana was surprised but smiled encouragingly.

Sk: Adam začal vysvetľovať princípy fungovania solárneho systému.
En: Adam began explaining the principles of how the solar system worked.

Sk: Hovoril o premene slnečného svetla na elektrickú energiu, o efektívnosti a o tom, ako tento systém prispieva k udržateľnosti.
En: He talked about converting sunlight into electrical energy, efficiency, and how this system contributed to sustainability.

Sk: Jeho hlas bol spočiatku neistý, ale postupne nabrali jeho slová istotu.
En: His voice was initially uncertain, but gradually his words gained confidence.

Sk: Zuzana počúvala so záujmom, očividne nadšená z toho, čo sa dozvedela.
En: Zuzana listened with interest, clearly excited by what she was learning.

Sk: Keď Adam skončil, celé to publikum mu zatlieskalo.
En: When Adam finished, the entire audience applauded him.

Sk: Zuzana k nemu pristúpila a povedala: "To bolo skvelé, Adam!
En: Zuzana approached him and said, "That was great, Adam!

Sk: Nikdy som nevedela, že sa o toľko vecí zaujímaš.
En: I never knew you were interested in so many things."

Sk: "Adam sa usmial.
En: Adam smiled.

Sk: "Ďakujem, Zuzana.
En: "Thank you, Zuzana.

Sk: Rád by som ti ukázal ešte viac.
En: I'd love to show you more."

Sk: "Zuzana súhlasila a od toho momentu trávili zvyšok školského výletu spolu.

Sk: Adam a Zuzana sedeli vedľa seba v autobuse, obaja spokojní a plní nových nápadov.
En: Adam and Zuzana sat next to each other on the bus, both content and full of new ideas.

Sk: Adam už nebol len plachý chlapec, ktorý stál v tieni.

Sk: Mal dôveru vo svoje vedomosti a na Zuzane videl, že ho počúvala s rešpektom.
En: He had confidence in his knowledge and saw that Zuzana listened to him with respect.

Sk: Keď sa školský autobus vrátil do mesta, obaja vedeli, že ich čaká nová kapitola.

Sk: Začali pracovať na svojom projekte a stali sa z nich skvelí priatelia a partnery.

Sk: Spoločne verili, že dokážu zmeniť svet k lepšiemu.
En: Together, they believed they could make the world a better place.

Sk: A tak sa z mladej utopistickej spoločnosti, ktorá stavila na udržateľnú budúcnosť, vynoril nový silný tím.
En: And so, from a young utopian society that bet on a sustainable future, a new strong team emerged.

Sk: Adam a Zuzana vedeli, že ich čaká mnoho výziev, ale boli pripravení im čeliť.
