9 Ch9-Put Those Books Away

Chapter 9 Put Those Books Away As soon as I got home from school, I went up to my big sister Amy's room. Amy is in fifth grade, so she knows lots of things. "You've got to help me!" I said. "If the school reads a million pages in books, Principal Klutz will put on a gorilla suit

第九章把那些书收起来我一放学回到家，就上楼去了我姐姐艾米的房间。 艾米上五年级，所以她知道很多事情。 “你一定要帮帮我!”我说。 “如果学校读了一百万页书，校长克鲁茨就会穿上大猩猩的衣服

and let us turn the school into a video-game arcade!" "I would do anything to see that," Amy said. Amy knows how to work the computer really well. She helped me make posters that said LET'S TURN OUR SCHOOL INTO A VIDEO-GAME ARCADE! and LET'S TURN PRINCI PAL KLUTZ INTO A GORILLA!

让我们把学校变成一个电子游戏厅!”“我愿意做任何事来看到这一点，”艾米说。 艾米很会用电脑。 她帮我制作海报，上面写着“让我们把学校变成电子游戏厅!”让我们把克鲁茨变成大猩猩!

We tacked the posters up all over Main Street. Amy sent e-mails and instant messages to all the kids in the fifth grade. The next morning we tacked the posters up all over school. I passed them out to the kids I saw. Mrs. Roopy the school librarian, said we could put up some posters in the library. Mr. Sacco, the custodian, said we could put some up in the lunchroom and the bathrooms. Ms. Hynde, the music teacher, said we could put some up in the music room. By the middle of the day, everyone in the school was reading like crazy! Kids were reading during lunch. Kids were reading during recess! Kids were plowing

我们把海报贴满了大街。 艾米给五年级所有的孩子发电子邮件和即时消息。 第二天早上，我们把海报贴满了学校。 我把它们发给了我看到的孩子们。 学校图书馆管理员鲁皮太太说我们可以在图书馆张贴一些海报。 管理员萨科先生说我们可以在餐厅和浴室里装一些。 音乐老师Hynde女士说我们可以在音乐室挂一些。 到了中午，学校里的每个人都在疯狂地读书!孩子们在午餐时读书。 孩子们在课间休息时读书!孩子们在犁地

their way through books and then running to the school library to ask Mrs. Roopy if they could check out more. I read a book about frogs, and I don't even care anything about frogs. Some of the teachers were starting to get mad, because kids were reading books when they were supposed to be doing other things. "Please put those books away," Miss Daisy had to tell us. "It's time for reading." Miss Daisy said she was sorry that she wouldn't be able to help us very much because she didn't know how to read. But she was nice enough to draw a big mural in the hallway with a giant thermometer

他们一路翻阅书籍，然后跑到学校图书馆问鲁比太太是否可以借更多的书。 我读了一本关于青蛙的书，但我根本不在乎青蛙。 一些老师开始生气了，因为孩子们在应该做其他事情的时候却在看书。 “请把那些书收起来，”黛西小姐不得不告诉我们。 “该读书了。”黛西小姐说她很抱歉不能帮我们很多忙，因为她不识字。 但她人很好，在走廊上画了一幅巨大的壁画，上面有一个巨大的温度计

on it. Every time we read a lot of pages, she would make the temperature line on the thermometer go up. At the top of the thermometer were the words One million. Soon kids were bursting into our room and yelling, "Mrs. Biggs's class has read another five hundred pages!" and "Miss

在上面。每次我们读了很多页，她就会把温度计上的温度线调高。 在温度计的顶端有几个字:一百万狮子。 很快，孩子们冲进了我们的房间，喊道:“我太太! 比格斯的学生又读了五百页!

Hasenfratz says to add another six hundred pages!" It was fun watching the temperature go up. At the end of a week, our school had read almost a half a million pages!

哈森弗拉茨说要再加600页!”看着气温上升很有趣。 在一周结束的时候，我们学校已经读了将近50万页!
