7. Fun with Me and Sheldon

7 Fun with Me and Sheldon At recess, Mr. Scary got the kickball team started on their practice. Then he came over to Sheldon and me. And he helped us with our halftime show. First, he gave me a woodblock from the music teacher's room. Plus also, he gave me a drumstick. "If you hit this woodblock while you march, you and Sheldon will be able to stay in step," he explained. I smiled very thrilled. 'Cause hitting stuff is right up my alley.

和我和谢尔顿玩得开心课间休息时，吓人先生让孩子们开始练习踢球。 然后他过来找我和谢尔顿 他还帮我们准备了中场秀。 首先，他从音乐老师的房间里给了我一块木版。 另外，他还送了我一只鸡腿。 “如果你在前进的过程中碰到这个木刻，你和谢耳朵就能保持步调一致了，”他解释道。 我笑得很激动。因为打人正是我的拿手好戏。

I whacked that thing with my drumstick. Then Sheldon crashed his cymbals together. And ha! That was beautiful music! After that, Mr. Scary told us to form a line behind him. And then all three of us marched around and around the playground. And guess what? My woodblock kept us in step very perfect! After a while, we marched over to a microphone. It was on a stand in the grass. "This is where you're going to sing, Sheldon," Mr. Scary said. "When you sing into this microphone, the whole audience will be able to hear you."

我用我的鸡腿敲了那东西。 然后谢尔顿把他的铙钹敲在一起。 和哈!那真是美妙的音乐！之后，吓人先生让我们在他后面排好队。 然后我们三个人围着操场转啊转。 你猜怎么着？我的木刻使我们步调一致，非常完美！过了一会儿，我们走向麦克风。 它在草地上的一个架子上。 “这就是你要唱歌的地方，谢尔顿，”提心吊胆先生说。 “当你对着麦克风唱歌时，所有的观众都能听到。”

Mr. Scary smiled. "We won't turn it on yet. But you can still practice your song, okay?" "Okay!" said Sheldon real thrilled. Then he stood up straight and tall. And he walked over to the microphone. And he started to sing "Hark! Harold the Angel Sings." He played the cymbals while he sang. It was very lovely, sort of. But Mr. Scary's face did not look delighted. He held up his hand. "Uh… could you hold it a second there, Sheldon?" he called. "Could you stop singing for a minute, please?" Sheldon stopped. Mr. Scary walked over to the microphone. "Okay. Well… that's a very nice Christmas carol, Sheldon," he said. "And you

吓人先生笑了。“我们还不打开它。 不过你还是可以练习唱歌的，好吗？”“好吧！”谢尔顿激动地说。 然后他站得又直又高。 他走到麦克风前。 他开始唱：“听！天使哈罗德在唱歌。” 他边唱歌边敲钹。 这是非常可爱的。 但是吓人先生的脸看起来并不高兴。 他举起手来。“呃……你能等一下吗，谢尔顿？”他喊道。 “你能不能别唱了？”谢尔登停了下来。 吓人先生走到麦克风前。 “好吧。这首圣诞颂歌真不错，谢尔顿。” “你

were singing it beautifully. But the trouble is… it really isn't Christmas, is it? So I'm wondering if maybe you know a different song." Sheldon thought for a minute. "How about 'I Have a Little Dreidel'?" he asked. "I know that one." Mr. Scary ran his fingers through his tired hair. "Yes, well, that's sort of the same problem, isn't it?" he said. "It's not really Hanukkah, either." Mr. Scary bent down next to him. "Do you know any songs besides holiday songs?" he asked. "Or is there some other talent you have, Sheldon? Like can you whistle, maybe? Or do a magic trick?" Sheldon thought some more. "I can blow milk bubbles out of my nose,"

我们唱得很好听。 但问题是，这真的不是圣诞节，不是吗？ 所以我想知道你是否知道另一首歌。” 谢尔顿想了一会儿。 “《我有一个小陀螺》怎么样？”他问。 “我知道这个。”吓人先生用手指梳理着他疲惫的头发。 “是的，嗯，这是同样的问题，不是吗？”他说。 “也不是真正的光明节。” 吓人先生在他旁边弯下腰。 “除了节日歌曲，你还会别的歌吗？”他问。 “还是你还有别的天赋，谢尔顿？” 你会吹口哨吗？ 还是变个魔术？”谢尔顿又想了想。 “我可以从鼻子里吹出牛奶泡泡，”

he said. "But that mostly only happens when I'm choking." Mr. Scary started rubbing the sides of his head. He was getting another headache in there, I think. Then, all of a sudden, Sheldon's whole face lighted up. "Hey! Wait! I just thought of another song I could sing!" he said. "'Happy Birthday,' Mr. Scary! I know all the words to 'Happy Birthday'! And that isn't even a holiday song!" Our teacher stood there a second. Then he nodded his head. And he said "Happy Birthday" would be just dandy. Sheldon started his performance all over again. He sang the song and played the cymbals very good.

他说。“但这通常只发生在我窒息的时候。” 吓人先生开始揉头的两侧。 我想他又头痛了。 然后，突然间，谢尔顿的整个脸都亮了起来。 “嘿!等等!我刚想到另一首我可以唱的歌！”他说。 “‘生日快乐’，吓人先生！”我知道“生日快乐”的所有单词！这甚至不是一首节日歌曲！”我们的老师在那儿站了一会儿。 然后他点了点头。他说“生日快乐”就太棒了。 谢尔顿重新开始了他的表演。 他唱歌和弹钹都很好。

After he got done, he did a somersault. I do not know why. Then hurray! Hurray! It was finally time for me! I quick put down my woodblock. Then I reached into my pocket. And I took out my pretend lemons. And I started to pretend I was juggling. Juggling for pretend is way easier than juggling for real. I skipped and twirled and danced. Mr. Scary and Sheldon clapped and clapped. I did a bow. Then I picked up my woodblock again. And I hit it with my stick. And me and Sheldon marched off the field. We jumped all around and did a high five. Then Sheldon picked me up and tried to

做完之后，他翻了个跟头。 我不知道为什么。然后喊万岁!华友世纪!终于轮到我了！我赶紧放下我的木版。 然后我把手伸进口袋。 我拿出了我的假柠檬。 我开始假装我在玩杂耍。 玩假杂耍比玩真杂耍容易多了。 我跳跃、旋转、跳舞。 吓人先生和谢尔顿不停地鼓掌。 我鞠了个躬。然后我又拿起我的木版。 我用棍子打它。 我和谢尔顿离开了球场。 我们跳来跳去，击掌庆祝。 然后谢尔顿把我抱起来，想
