12 Ch12-The Big Holiday Pageant

Chapter 12 The Big Holiday Pageant Finally the day of the big holiday pageant arrived. Everybody came to school in their costumes. Miss Holly wore a Santa suit. Me and Ryan and Michael wore black jackets and had our hair greased up so we looked like Elvis. It was cool. We peeked through the curtains from

终于，盛大节日游行的日子到了。 每个人都穿着戏服来学校。 霍莉小姐穿着圣诞老人的衣服。 我、瑞安和迈克尔都穿着黑色夹克，头发上了油，看起来像猫王。 很酷。我们透过窗帘往外偷看

backstage. The all-purpose room was packed with parents. A bunch of them were setting up video cameras to record the show. "Guess what?" Miss Holly said. "Dr. Carbles, the president of the Board of Education, is here! He's sitting in the front row! Let's put on a great show for him." The stage was decorated with big candy canes, snowmen, fake snow, and a

后台。多功能房间里挤满了家长。 他们中的一群人正在安装摄像机来记录这场演出。 “你猜怎么着?”霍莉小姐说。 “教育委员会主席卡伯斯博士来了!”他坐在第一排!让我们为他表演一场精彩的表演。” 舞台上装饰着大拐杖糖、雪人、假雪和一个

giant reindeer. It looked great. Miss Holly nodded to me and Ryan and Michael. We pulled a long rope to open the curtain. The show started out with one of the fifth-grade classes telling the story of Christmas. After that me and Michael and Ryan sang "Hound Dog." Everybody went crazy! After that one of the fourth-grade classes told the story of Kwanzaa. After that we sang "Winter Wonderland." After that one of the third-grade classes told the story of Hanukkah. After that Emily sang "The Dreidel Song." "Dreidel, dreidel, dreidel, I made it out of clay...." Me and Michael and Ryan were taking

巨大的驯鹿。看起来很棒。 霍莉小姐向我、瑞安和迈克尔点了点头。 我们拉了一根长绳拉开窗帘。 节目以五年级的一个班级讲述圣诞节的故事开始。 之后我和迈克尔还有瑞恩唱了《猎犬》 每个人都疯了!在那之后，一个四年级的班级讲述了宽扎节的故事。 之后我们唱了《冬季仙境》。 在那之后，一个三年级的班级讲述了光明节的故事。 之后，艾米丽唱了《德瑞德尔之歌》。 “Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel，我用粘土做的....” 我和迈克尔还有瑞安在

turns working the spotlight, and it was my turn. I shone the light on Emily while she sang and spun around. "The light is too high, A.J.," Ryan said "You're shining it in her eyes." "I am not," I said. "Are too," he said. We went back and forth like that for a while, but we didn't get the chance to finish the argument, because the most amazing thing in the history of the world happened. While Emily was singing and spinning around, she must have slipped on some fake snow or something because she fell off the stage! You should have been

转到聚光灯下，轮到我了。 我把灯照在艾米丽身上，她一边唱歌一边旋转。 “灯光太亮了，aj，”瑞恩说，“你把它照在她的眼睛里了。” “我没有，”我说。“我也是，”他说。 我们就这样来回争论了一会儿，但我们没有机会结束争论，因为世界历史上最神奇的事情发生了。 艾米丽一边唱歌一边转着圈，她一定是踩到假雪或什么东西滑倒了，因为她从舞台上摔了下来!你本应该

there! When Emily was falling, she tried to grab hold of the giant reindeer. But it wasn't nailed down or anything, and the two of them fell into the front row and landed on Dr. Carbles, the president of the Board of

在那里!艾米丽掉下去的时候，她试图抓住那只巨大的驯鹿。 但它并没有被钉住什么的，他们两个掉进了前排，落在了Dr。 Carbles，董事会主席

Education! It was a real Kodak moment. People were screaming. Mrs. Cooney, the nurse, ran over to make sure Emily was okay. The reindeer's head fell off, and some of the kindergarten kids started crying. It was hilarious. And we got to see it live and in person. Miss Holly ran onto the stage and told the audience there would be a short intermission. Backstage, all the girls were upset. All the boys were laughing our heads off.

教育!这是一个真正的柯达时刻。 人们在尖叫。护士库尼太太跑过来看看艾米丽是否安然无恙。 驯鹿的头掉了下来，一些幼儿园的孩子开始哭起来。 太搞笑了。而且我们还能亲眼看到。 霍莉小姐跑上舞台，告诉观众会有短暂的中场休息。 在后台，所有的女孩都很沮丧。 所有的男孩都笑得前仰后合。
