7. Pallies

7 Pallies We worked on our poems for the whole entire morning, almost. And ha! Mr. Scary was right! Sharing ideas did help spark our imaginations! Plus all of us got to add our own special words to our poem! And that is called good teamwork! After we got done, I printed our poem on a clean piece of paper. Lennie and José and Herb watched me real careful. "I am an excellent printer," I told them. "I can print with the best of them." Pretty soon, all of the other children in

我们几乎整个上午都在写诗。 和哈!吓人先生是对的！分享想法确实有助于激发我们的想象力！而且我们所有人都要在我们的诗里加上我们自己特别的词！这就是好的团队合作！做完之后，我把我们的诗印在一张干净的纸上。 伦尼、约瑟和赫伯非常仔细地看着我。 “我是一个优秀的印刷工，”我告诉他们。 “我可以用他们中最好的来打印。” 很快，其他孩子都进来了

Room One finished their poems, too. And good news! Mr. Scary said there was time to read some of our poems to the class. Lucille didn't wait to get called on. She ran right to the front of the room. And she made squinty eyes at Camille and Chenille. "I wanted to write my poem with two girls in my group," she said. "But all they wanted to write about was twins, twins, twins." She looked at them some more. "The whole world is not just about you two, you know," she grouched. After that, she fluffed her lacy dress. And she read her poem: Me. Richie Lucille. Shopping, buying, spending. Everyone's jealous of myself. Princess.

一号房间也完成了他们的诗。 好消息！吓人先生说有时间给全班读一些我们的诗。 露西尔没有等到被叫到。 她径直跑到房间前面。 她斜眼看着卡米尔和雪尼尔。 “我想和两个女孩一起写诗，”她说。 “但他们只想写双胞胎，双胞胎，双胞胎。” 她又看了看他们。 “你知道，整个世界不只是关于你们两个的，”她抱怨道。 在那之后，她拍松了她的花边连衣裙。 她读了她的诗：我。 里奇露西尔。购物，购买，消费。 每个人都嫉妒我。 公主。

After she was finished, Mr. Scary sat there for a second. Then he smiled and nodded. "Good, Lucille. Yes. Excellent," he said. "That poem really says it all, doesn't it?" Lucille nodded. "Yes," she said. "It does." Then she did another mean look at the twins. And she sat back down. After that, May didn't wait to be called on, either. She ran to the front of the room just like Lucille. And she hollered out her poem real loud. Tin Can! Tin-tin, Can-can! I have perfect hearing! And Mr. Scary told me it was tin can! He did, he did, he really did! Mr. Scary rubbed his chin. "Yes, well, that certainly was an interesting poem idea, May. But it didn't really follow

她说完后，吓人先生在那儿坐了一会儿。 然后他微笑着点了点头。 “好,露西尔。是的。“太好了，”他说。 “这首诗真的说明了一切，不是吗？”露西尔点点头。 “是的，”她说。“它”。 然后她又刻薄地看了那对双胞胎一眼。 然后她又坐了下来。在那之后，梅也没等别人叫她。 她像露西尔一样跑到房间前面。 她大声地念着她的诗。 锡罐!tin tin,能!我的听力很好！吓人先生告诉我那是锡罐！他做到了，他做到了，他真的做到了！吓人先生揉了揉下巴。 “是啊，梅，这确实是一个有趣的诗歌创意。 但它并没有真正跟随

the rules of a cinquain, did it?" he said. "You mean tin can," said May. Mr. Scary did a sigh. Then he got up from his desk. And he walked May back to her seat. After that, there was time for one more poem. My group waved our hands all around in the air.

这是五骑士的规矩，是吗？”他说。 “你是说锡罐，”梅说。 吓人先生叹了口气。然后他从桌子上站起来。 他送梅回到座位上。 在那之后，还有时间再写一首诗。 我的团队在空中挥舞着我们的手。

"We have a good one!" hollered José. "Yes! A really good one!" yelled Lennie.

“我们有一个好主意！”约瑟大声说。 “是啊!一个非常好的笑话！”伦尼喊道。

Mr. Scary nodded at us. And so all of us jumped up. And we stood in our group. And we read our poem with all of our voices. Pallies. Chummy, happy, Joking, gelling, sharing. Four amigos all together. Friendship.

吓人先生朝我们点了点头。于是我们都跳了起来。 我们站在我们的小组里。 我们用我们所有的声音朗读我们的诗。 亲密的。亲密、快乐、开玩笑、友爱、分享。 四个朋友在一起。友谊。
