6. Boss of Lunch

6 Boss of Lunch It was the funnest dream I ever had. I looked exactly like Mrs. Gutzman. Except I had my own face. Also, I had my own apron. And my own plastic mitts. And my very own hair net. I was a vision, I tell you! I worked my hardest in the kitchen. I washed all the carrots. And I made all the hoagies. Plus also, I ate all the sugar cookies. After a while, Room One came into the

这是我做过的最有趣的梦。 我和古兹曼太太长得一模一样。 除了我有自己的脸。而且，我有自己的围裙。 还有我自己的塑料手套。还有我自己的发网。 我告诉你，我是个幻象！我在厨房里干得最卖力。 我洗了所有的胡萝卜。我做了所有的三明治。 另外，我把所有的糖饼干都吃了。 过了一会儿，一号房间进来了

kitchen with their trays. The children saw how hard I was working. They called me "Boss of Lunch." And they skipped around me in a happy circle. After that, they carried me all around on their shoulders. May did not participate. I waved at her when I went by. Then a duck flew in and chased her out of the room. That morning, I woke up laughing in my pillow. And guess what else? At school, my day kept on getting better and better. Because I gave Mr. Scary my permission slip. And he let me go to the cafeteria at ten o'clock A.M.! And so I hardly even did much work! Mrs. Gutzman was delighted to see me again.

厨房里有他们的托盘。孩子们看到我有多努力。 他们叫我“午餐老板”。 他们围着我欢快地转着圈。 从那以后，他们一直把我扛在肩上。 梅没有参加。我经过时向她招手。 然后一只鸭子飞了进来，把她赶出了房间。 那天早上，我在枕头里笑着醒来。 猜猜还有什么？在学校，我的一天变得越来越好。 因为我给了吓人先生许可。 他让我上午十点钟去自助餐厅！所以我几乎没有做多少工作！古兹曼太太很高兴再次见到我。

She said I could start helping her very soon. But first she wanted to show me around the kitchen. It was the hugest kitchen I ever even saw. It was a kitchen a giant would have. "Look at how big everything is, Mrs. Gutzman," I said. "Look at that big dishwasher over there. And look at those big refrigerators! And whoa! Look at those big sinks! And that big giant freezer!" I kept looking. "And look at that big can opener. And look at this big floor we're standing on. And look at these big walls. And that big light switch. And those big—" Mrs. Gutzman interrupted me. "Okay, let's move on, shall we?" she said. "I'd like you to meet some of the other folks who work here, Junie B." After that, she took me over and

她说我很快就可以开始帮她了。 但她想先带我参观一下厨房。 这是我见过的最大的厨房。 这是巨人才会有的厨房。 “看看这些东西有多大，古兹曼太太，”我说。 “看那边那个大洗碗机。 看看那些大冰箱！,哇!看那些大水槽！还有那个巨大的冰柜！”我一直在找。 “看那个大开罐器。 看看我们正站在这个大地板上。 看看这些大墙。 还有那个大电灯开关。 还有那些大的——”古兹曼太太打断了我的话。 “好吧，我们继续吧，好吗？”她说。 “我想让你认识一下在这里工作的其他人，朱尼·b。” 在那之后，她接管了我

introduced me to six grownups. I waved at those people kind of shy. They waved back. Plus also, they said "welcome." But here is the bestest part of all! After I met all the people, Mrs. Gutzman opened a big drawer. And she handed me a giant white apron! My mouth fell open at that hugie thing! "You mean I get to wear this, Mrs. Gutzman?" I said. "I get to wear an apron just like yours? Wowie wow wow! This is my dream come true!" Mrs. Gutzman winked at me. "Well, we sure don't want you to mess up that pretty flowered dress of yours, do we?" she said. After that, she pulled the apron over my head. And she tied the straps around me.

把我介绍给了六个大人。 我有点害羞地向那些人挥手。 他们也挥了挥手。另外，他们还说了“欢迎”。 但这是最好的部分！见过所有人之后，古兹曼太太打开了一个大抽屉。 她递给我一条巨大的白围裙！看到那巨大的东西我的嘴都张大了！“你是说我可以穿这个吗，古兹曼太太？”我说。 “我可以像你一样系一条围裙？” 哇哇哇！这是我的梦想成真！”古兹曼太太对我眨了眨眼睛。 “好吧，我们可不想让你弄脏你那件漂亮的花裙子，对吧？”她说。 然后，她把围裙套在我头上。 她把带子系在我身上。

I looked down to the ground. The apron came down to my shoes, almost. I twirled and twirled all around. "Oooh! I love this apron, Mrs. Gutzman!" I

我低头看了看地面。 围裙几乎垂到了我的鞋子上。 我不停地转啊转。 “噢!我喜欢这条围裙，古兹曼太太！”我

said. "This apron makes me feel like a princess!" Mrs. Gutzman said I had a good imagination. After that, I put on my mitts that she had given me. And I twirled some more. "Now I have the whole complete outfit, practically!" I said real happy. And then, what do you know? All of a sudden, Mrs. Gutzman reached into her apron. And she pulled out a hair net! A hair net just for me! She put it on my head. "Oh boy! Oh boy! Thank you, Mrs. Gutzman! Thank you!" I squealed. Then I zoomed to the oven and stared at myself in the glass. "Look at me! Just look at me! I look like a real professional lunch maker!" I said.

说。“这条围裙让我觉得自己像个公主！”古兹曼太太说我想象力很丰富。 在那之后，我戴上了她给我的手套。 我又转了几圈。“现在我几乎有一整套完整的服装了！”我说真的很开心。 然后，你知道什么？ 突然，古兹曼太太把手伸进围裙里。 她拿出了一个发网！专为我准备的发网！她把它戴在我头上。 “哦,男孩!哦,男孩!谢谢你，古兹曼夫人！谢谢你!”我叫苦不迭。 然后我迅速走到烤箱前，盯着镜子里的自己。 “看着我！”看着我！我看起来像个真正的专业午餐师！”我说。
