3. Laughing All the Way

3 Laughing All the Way We went to the Sing-Along after lunch. And ha! The auditorium looked like Santa's workshop! There were a jillion cute elves in that place! And wait till you hear this! Room One got to sit in the very first row! I sat in the seat right next to my friend Herbert. "This Sing-Along is going to be fun! Right, Herb? Right? This Sing-Along is going to be the time of our life!"

我们午饭后去了“跟着唱”。 和哈!礼堂看起来就像圣诞老人的工作室！那里有无数可爱的小精灵！等着听这个吧！一号房间要坐在第一排！我坐在我朋友赫伯特旁边的座位上。 “这个合唱会很有趣的！”草? 对吧?这次合唱将是我们一生中最重要的时刻！”

Just then, May plopped down in the seat on the other side of me. I stopped smiling. "That seat is saved, May," I told her. "I am saving it for someone else." She looked all around. "For who?" she asked. "For someone not you. That's who," I said. May did not budge herself. "You can't make me move, Junie Jones.

就在这时，梅扑通一声坐在我另一边的座位上。 我不再笑了。“那个座位有人了，梅，”我告诉她。 “我要把它留给别人。” 她环顾四周。“给谁？”她问。 “不是为了你。就是他，”我说。 梅不为所动。 “你不能让我动，琼·琼斯。

This seat is public property," she said. She scooted closer to me. "I'm going to stick to you like glue. It's the only way to make you behave yourself today." I showed her my teeth and I made a grr noise. May did not look fearful. Finally, I moved closer to Herb. And I pretended she was invisible. Pretty soon, the Sing-Along got started. Mr. Toot said to turn to page one in our holiday songbook. The first song was "The Twelve Days of Christmas." It is about a guy who gives his girlfriend a bunch of stupid presents. I tapped on Herb real curious. "What would you do with ten lords a- leaping, do you think?" I said.

这个座位是公共财产，”她说。 她向我靠近了一些。“我要像胶水一样粘在你身上。 这是今天让你规规矩矩的唯一办法。” 我给她看了我的牙齿，并发出了一声巨响。 梅看上去并不害怕。最后，我靠近了赫伯。 我假装她是隐形的。 很快，“跟着唱”开始了。 图特先生说要翻到我们的节日歌本的第一页。 第一首歌是《圣诞节的十二天》。 是关于一个男人给他女朋友一堆愚蠢的礼物。 我很好奇地敲了敲赫伯。 “十个老爷跳来跳去，你看怎么办？”我说。

He thought for a minute. "I'd take them back and get store credit," he said. I nodded. That Herb has all the answers. After that, we sang "Frosty the Snowman" and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" and "Winter Wonderland." Finally, Mr. Toot stood up at his piano. And he said it is time for "Jingle Bells"! Room One hurried to the stage. It was very thrilling. Except for May kept on sticking to me like glue. She stepped on my heels going up the steps. Then she crowded in real close to me. And she whispered in my ear. "I'll be listening to you, Junie Jones," she said. "I'll be hearing every word you sing." I smiled to just myself. 'Cause I had a surprise up my arm, that's why.

他想了一会儿。“我会把它们拿回去，拿到商店积分，”他说。 我点了点头。赫伯知道所有的答案。 之后，我们唱了“Frosty the Snowman”、“Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”和“Winter Wonderland”。 最后，图特先生在钢琴前站了起来。 他说现在是《铃儿响叮当》的时间了！一号房间匆匆走向舞台。 这是非常激动人心的。除了梅一直像胶水一样粘着我。 她上台阶时踩了我的脚跟。 然后她挤到离我很近的地方。 她在我耳边低语。 “我会听你的，琼·琼斯，”她说。 “我会听到你唱的每一个字。” 我对自己笑了。因为我手臂上有个惊喜，这就是原因。

Pretty soon, Mr. Toot raised his hands to start the song. I stood up straight and tall. Then I took a big breath. And I sang the words out, loud and clear. Dashing through the snow In a one-horse open sleigh, O'er the fields we go, Laughing all the way. (ha, ha, ha) Bells on bobtail ring, Making spirits bright. What fun it is to ride and sing A sleighing song tonight! My eyes glanced over at May. Her face looked disappointed, almost. I smiled. Then I took another breath. And I sang the chorus in her ear.

不久，图特先生举起双手，开始唱歌。 我站得又直又高。 然后我深深地吸了一口气。我大声而清晰地唱出了歌词。 乘着一辆单马雪橇在雪地里飞奔，我们穿过田野，一路欢笑。 （哈，哈，哈）短尾上的铃铛响，使精神焕发。 今晚骑着雪橇唱着雪橇歌是多么有趣啊！我瞥了梅一眼。 她的脸上几乎露出失望的神情。 我笑了笑。然后我又吸了一口气。 我在她耳边唱着副歌。

Ohhh… Jingle bells, Batman smells. P.S. So does Maaay…. I'd throw May Right off the sleigh, And then I'd drive away. "HEY!" yelled May.

《铃儿响叮当》，蝙蝠侠有味道。 附：Maaay也是....我会把梅从雪橇上扔下去，然后开车离开。 “嘿！”梅叫道。
