2. Jingle Hats

2 Jingle Hats The rest of the morning, we did arithmetic. Arithmetic is the school word for adding and taking away. Only I couldn't even concentrate on my numbers that good. On account of May kept giving me mean looks. And flopping her sweater sleeve around. Pretty soon, there was a knock on the door. "COME IN, PLEASE!" said Room One. Mr. Scary taught us to say that. Only I don't actually know why. 'Cause people come in anyway. The door opened very slow.

在上午剩下的时间里，我们做了算术。 算术是加和减的学名。 只是我甚至不能专注于我的数字那么好。 因为梅总是恶狠狠地看我。 把她的毛衣袖子甩来甩去。 很快，有人敲门。 “请进！”一号房间说。 吓人先生教我们这么说的。 只是我不知道为什么。 因为无论如何都会有人进来。 门开得很慢。

And ha! It was Mr. Toot, the music teacher! He was carrying a big brown box in his arms. It was dusty, I think. 'Cause when Mr. Toot plopped the box on the floor, Sheldon started to sneeze his head off. Sheldon is very allergic to dust particles. Also, he is allergic to hoagies… and dairy products… and nature. "AH… AH… AH… AHCHOO! AHCHOO! AHCHOO! AHCHOO!" Mr. Scary looked at him real panicked. Then he quick picked up a tissue box. And he rushed to Sheldon's desk. But Sheldon was already wiping his nose on his shirt sleeve. "Ha! I beat you again, Mr. Scary!" he said. "I beat you at that race every time I sneeze!"

和哈!是图特先生，音乐老师！他怀里抱着一个棕色的大盒子。 我想是尘土飞扬。因为当图特先生把盒子扔在地板上时，谢尔顿就开始打喷嚏了。 谢尔顿对灰尘过敏。 而且，他对三明治、乳制品和大自然过敏。 “啊……啊……啊……啊！”哈啾!哈啾!哈啾!”吓人先生惊恐地看着他。 然后他迅速拿起一个纸巾盒。 他冲到谢尔顿的办公桌前。 但谢尔顿已经在用衬衫袖子擦鼻子了。 “哈!我又打败你了，吓人先生！” “我每次打喷嚏都赢了你！”

Mr. Scary closed his eyes. "I have told you before, Sheldon. We are not racing," he said. Sheldon laughed. Then he threw his fist in the air. And he shouted, "SHELDON POTTS RULES!" Mr. Scary rolled his eyes. Then he moved the dusty box farther away from Sheldon's desk. And Mr. Toot lifted the lid. I stood up to look. And wowie wow wow! Guess what was in there? ELF CLOTHES! That's what! There were little green elf hats with jingle bells on their ends! Plus also, there were cute elf vests with belts! Mr. Toot held them up for us to see. "Boys and girls, our PTO made these costumes several years ago for our Holiday

吓人先生闭上了眼睛。 “我以前告诉过你，谢尔顿。 我们不是在比赛，”他说。 谢尔登笑了。然后他把拳头向空中一挥。 他喊道：“谢尔顿·波茨说了算！”吓人先生翻了个白眼。 然后他把那个满是灰尘的盒子移到离谢尔顿桌子更远的地方。 图特先生打开盖子。 我站起来看。哇，哇，哇！猜猜里面有什么？ 精灵的衣服!这是什么!还有末端有铃铛的绿色小精灵小帽子！此外，还有可爱的带腰带的小精灵背心！图特先生把它们举起来给我们看。 “孩子们，我们的专利商标局几年前为我们的节日制作了这些服装

Sing-Alongs," he said. "Aren't they great? Every single first grader is going to get to wear one today!" He started passing them out. My richie friend Lucille got hers first. She looked at it and made a face. "Okay… Number one: I don't wear this shade of green. And number two: I don't wear bell hats," she said. Mr. Scary looked up at the ceiling.

一起唱吧，”他说。“他们很棒吧？” 今天每个一年级的学生都可以戴上它了！”他开始分发。 我富有的朋友露西尔先拿到了。 她看着它，做了个鬼脸。 “好吧……第一点：我不穿这种绿色。 第二，我不戴礼帽，”她说。 吓人先生抬头看了看天花板。

Then he took Lucille by her hand. And he walked her into the hall. And she came back wearing her bell hat. Pretty soon, all of the rest of Room One were wearing our bell hats, too. We shook our heads. The bells jangled very jingly. "Hey! This room sounds just like a jingle- bell sleigh!" I said. Mr. Toot did a chuckle.

然后他拉着露西尔的手。 他带她走进大厅。 她戴着铃铛帽回来了。 很快，一号房间的其他人也都戴上了我们的喇叭帽。 我们摇了摇头。铃铛叮当作响。 “嘿!这个房间听起来就像叮当响的雪橇！”我说。 图特先生吃吃地笑了。

"You're right, Junie B. Every year, one lucky class gets to wear the jingle-bell hats. And this year—because Room One has been so well behaved in music class— I chose you!" All of the children clapped and cheered. Except for not Lucille. Instead, she threw her hands in the air and shouted, "What are the odds?" After that, she flopped her head on her desk. And she didn't come up again. Mr. Toot ignored her. "And that's not all my good news, either," he said. "Because each year, the class with the bell hats goes onstage. And they lead the whole auditorium in singing 'Jingle Bells'!" Room One jumped up from our seats. "'Jingle Bells'! 'Jingle Bells'! Yay! Yay! We're going to lead 'Jingle Bells'!"

“你说得对，朱妮·b。每年都有一个幸运的班级可以戴铃铛帽。 今年——因为一室在音乐课上表现得很好——我选择了你！”所有的孩子都鼓掌欢呼。 除了露西尔。相反，她把双手举在空中，喊道：“有多大的几率？”在那之后，她把头扑通一声伏在桌子上。 她再也没有出现过。 图特先生不理睬她。“这还不是我所有的好消息，”他说。 “因为每年，戴铃铛帽的班级都会上台。 他们带领整个礼堂唱《铃儿响叮当》！”一号房间从我们的座位上跳了起来。 “铃儿响叮当”!“铃儿响叮当”!耶!耶!我们要唱《铃儿响叮当》！”
