9 Ch9-Spying on Mr. Docker

Chapter 9 Spying on Mr. Docker Spying on people is cool. My sister, Amy, and I spy on our parents all the time. We tiptoe around and hide behind the furniture so we can write down their conversations. I always hope to hear good secrets, but all my parents ever talk about is whose turn it is to take out

第九章监视多克先生监视别人很酷。 我妹妹艾米和我经常监视我们的父母。 我们蹑手蹑脚地躲在家具后面，这样我们就能记下他们的谈话。 我总是希望听到好的秘密，但我父母谈论的都是该轮到谁出去了

the garbage and stuff like that. They're the most boring parents in the history of the world. On Saturday me, Michael, Andrea, and Emily rode our bikes to Ryan's house. Ryan was all ready. He had sunglasses for all of us, because spies always wear sunglasses. He had his milk carton

垃圾之类的东西。 他们是世界上最无聊的父母。 星期六，我、迈克尔、安德里亚和艾米丽骑着自行车去瑞恩家。 瑞安已经准备好了。他给我们每个人都准备了墨镜，因为间谍都戴墨镜。 他有他的牛奶盒

periscope. Ryan even had one of his famous stink bombs. "Okay," he said, "let's synchronize our potato clock." "What does that mean?" Emily asked. "I don't know," Ryan said. "But they always synchronize their watches in spy movies." We tiptoed down the street to Mr. Docker's house. It looked pretty normal. You would never know a mad scientist lived there. We hid behind a tree across the street. Ryan looked in the periscope. "Can you see anything?" Andrea asked. "No."

潜望镜。瑞安甚至有一个他著名的臭弹。 “好吧，”他说，“让我们同步我们的土豆时钟。” “这是什么意思?”艾米丽问。 “我不知道，”瑞恩说。 “但在间谍电影里，他们总是把手表同步。” 我们蹑手蹑脚地沿街来到多克先生的家。 它看起来很正常。你永远不会知道那里住着一个疯狂的科学家。 我们躲在街对面的一棵树后面。 瑞恩看了看潜望镜。 “你能看见什么吗?”安德里亚问道。 “没有。”

"Maybe he's not home," said Emily. "We should go." "Let's get closer," I said. We tiptoed across the street and sneaked up Mr. Docker's driveway. "If he comes home right now, we'll be in big trouble," Emily said. "Don't be a baby," I said. "Come on. Let's peek in the window." I looked in the window. I was hoping to see Mr. Docker swapping brains with someone, but there was nobody inside. "He's not home," Andrea said. "Let's get out of here." "Oops." I turned around. Ryan dropped the

“也许他不在家，”爱米丽说。 “我们该走了。”“让我们靠近一点，”我说。 我们蹑手蹑脚地穿过街道，偷偷溜上了多克先生的车道。 “如果他现在回家，我们就有大麻烦了，”艾米丽说。 “别孩子气，”我说。 “来吧。我们从窗户往里看。” 我从窗户往里看。我本来希望看到多克先生和人交换大脑，但里面没人。 “他不在家，”安德烈说。 “我们离开这里吧。”“哦。” 我转过身来。瑞恩放下了

stink bomb in the middle of Mr. Docker's driveway! It broke open and the stink got out. "Ewww, it's disgusting!" Andrea said, holding her nose. "Ugh, I think I'm gonna die," I said. I didn't think things could get any

臭弹落在多克先生的车道上!门开了，臭味散了出来。 “呃，太恶心了!”安德烈捏着鼻子说。 “呃，我想我要死了，”我说。 我不认为事情会变得更糟

worse, but they did. Suddenly the garage door opened! Mr. Docker was standing there! He had a knife in his hand! We all screamed! "He's crazy!" Andrea shouted. "Run for your life!"

更糟糕的是，他们确实做到了。突然，车库的门开了!多克先生就站在那儿!他手里拿着一把刀!我们都尖叫起来!“他疯了!”安德里亚喊道。 “快逃命!”
