3. Capes and Lightning

3/ Capes and Lightning Mrs. hurried over to me. She said to please stop dancing. "Yeah, only I can't even control my feet that good. 'Cause they are excited about being Captain Field Day!" I said. I jumped up and down. "I've always wanted to be the boss of these people! And now I am the captain of everybody! Captain means the same thing as boss! Right, Mrs.? Right?" Just then, my whole mouth fell open. 'Cause I thought of something very

卡普斯和闪电太太急忙向我走来。 她说请不要跳舞了。 “是啊，只是我连脚都控制不好。 因为他们对成为Field Day队长很兴奋！”我说。 我跳上跳下。“我一直想当这些人的老板！”现在我是大家的队长了！Captain和boss是一个意思！太太? 对吗?”就在那时，我整个嘴巴都张大了。 因为我想到了一件非常

wonderful! "Mrs.! Hey, Mrs.! Guess what else captain can be? It can be the name of a superhero, I think!" I clapped my hands. "Yes! Yes! I heard of that before! I heard of a superhero named Captain somebody-or-other. And so that makes this job even better!" I said. I hugged myself real happy. "Maybe I can even wear a whole entire superhero outfit! Like a leotard and tights! And a cape! And a belt with lightning!" Just then, Mrs. held her hand in the air. "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" she said. Then she quick took me into the hall. And she bent down next to me. "Junie B., you are very mixed up about being a team captain. Team captains are not superheroes. They're not even close, in fact."

太棒了!“夫人!嘿,夫人!猜猜船长还能是什么？ 我想它可以成为一个超级英雄的名字！”我拍了拍手。 “是啊!是的!我以前听说过！我听说有个超级英雄叫某某队长。 这让这份工作变得更好了！”我说。 我拥抱着自己真的很开心。 “也许我甚至可以穿一套超级英雄的衣服！”比如连衣裤和紧身衣！还有斗篷！还有一条带闪电的腰带！”就在这时，太太把手举在空中。 “哇，哇，哇！”她说。 然后她迅速带我进了大厅。 她在我身边弯下腰。 “朱尼·B，你对当队长这件事很困惑。 队长不是超级英雄。 事实上，他们甚至还差得很远。”

I did a frown at that woman. "Why? Why aren't they?" I asked. "Captains are the bosses, right?" Mrs. shook her head. "No, Junie B. Not in this case, they aren't. In this case, a team captain supports the team. A team captain keeps the team united." She looked at me. "You know what united means, don't you? You've heard of that word before, right?" I thought and thought very hard. But I couldn't actually remember it. Mrs. explained it to me. "Unite means to join people together, Junie B.," she said. "A team captain keeps her teammates working together in good spirits. Instead of bossing them around, she cheers them on. Do you think you can do that?" I did a little frown. 'Cause this was not the

我对那个女人皱了皱眉。 “为什么?为什么不呢？”我问。 “船长就是老板，对吧？”太太摇了摇头。 “不，朱妮·b，这次不是，他们不是。 在这种情况下，团队队长支持团队。 队长能让球队团结一致。” 她看着我。“你知道团结是什么意思，不是吗？” 你以前听说过这个词，对吧？”我想了又想。 但我记不起来了。 太太给我解释了。“团结的意思是把人们团结在一起，朱妮·B，”她说。 “队长能让她的队友以良好的精神状态一起工作。 她没有对他们颐指气使，而是鼓励他们。 你觉得你能做到吗？”我微微皱了皱眉。 因为这不是

job I expected, that's why. Finally, I shrugged my shoulders. "I guess I can do it," I said kind of quiet. "But I still wish I could have a cape." I looked at her real serious. "I wish that really, really bad, Mrs.," I said. Mrs. stood up. "Well, I suppose if we looked around the room, we could find a towel to pin on your shoulders. How would that be?" she asked. My eyes got big and wide at her. Then I jumped way high in the air. "Perfect! A towel will be perfect, Mrs.!" I said. "'Cause then I will look like the real actual Captain Field Day! Plus also, I can dry my hands occasionally!" After that, I runned straight to the sink in the back of Room Nine. And guess what? Mrs. found a towel in the cabinet. And it was

这就是我期待的工作。 最后，我耸耸肩。 “我想我能做到。”我有点安静地说。 “但我还是希望我能有一件斗篷。” 我很认真地看着她。 “我真的非常非常希望那样，夫人，”我说。 太太站了起来。“嗯，我想如果我们环顾一下房间，我们可以找到一条毛巾别在你的肩膀上。 那会怎么样？”她问。 我瞪大了眼睛看着她。 然后我跳到很高的空中。 “完美!一条毛巾再合适不过了，太太！”我说。 “因为那样我看起来就像真正的菲尔德上尉了！”另外，我还可以偶尔把手擦干！”在那之后，我直接跑到9号房间后面的水槽。 你猜怎么着？夫人在柜子里找到一条毛巾。 确实是这样

a red one! She pinned it on my shoulders. I zoomed all around the room. "Look at me, Mrs.! Look at me! I am fast as lightning in this thing!" Finally, Mrs. grabbed my hand and she walked me over to the door. "Boys and girls, it's time to get things started," she said. "Let's all form a line behind our team captain." I spinned around and looked at them. "That's me, people! I am your captain! I am the one with the red cape! The cape will remind you that I am Captain Field Day!" Just then, Room Nine groaned and groaned. Only I don't actually know why.

一个红色的！她把它别在我的肩膀上。 我在房间里转来转去。 “看着我，太太！看着我！我在这东西上像闪电一样快！”最后，太太抓住我的手，把我送到门口。 “孩子们，是时候开始行动了，”她说。 “让我们站在队长身后排成一排。” 我转过身来看着他们。 “那就是我，伙计们！”我是你们的船长！我就是那个披着红斗篷的人！斗篷会提醒你，我是Field Day队长！”就在这时，九号房间呻吟着。 只是我不知道为什么。

After that, they lined up behind me. And all of us marched outside to the playground. Then we waited real excited for Room Eight to come out. 'Cause Field Day was ready to begin!

在那之后，他们在我身后排队。 我们所有人都走到外面的操场上。 然后我们非常兴奋地等着八号房间出来。 因为野战日就要开始了！
