11 Ch11-My Genius Ideas

Chapter 11 My Genius Ideas Okay, here's genius idea #1: Me and the guys would hold a protest rally in front of the church and stop the wedding. Mr. Louie had told us that back in the Sixties, kids were always protesting stuff. He said if you didn't like something, you could protest and change the world. I

好吧，这是第一个天才主意:我和伙计们在教堂前举行抗议集会，阻止婚礼。 路易先生告诉我们，在60年代，孩子们总是在抗议。 他说如果你不喜欢什么，你可以抗议并改变世界。 我

didn't like Miss Daisy getting married, so the best way to stop it would be to protest. On the morning of the wedding, my mom said I had to wear a jacket and tie. What's up with that? Why do men have to wear a dumb cloth around their neck? Whoever thought up that idea should get the Nobrain Prize. That's a prize they give to people who don't have brains. I went to the church with my parents. Michael, Ryan, and Neil the nude kid were waiting out front. I told my parents to go inside and I would meet them in there. "Okay, let's do this!" I told the guys. The four of us formed a line and

他不喜欢黛西小姐结婚，所以阻止她结婚的最好办法就是抗议。 在婚礼那天早上，我妈妈说我必须穿夹克打领带。 这是怎么回事?为什么男人必须在脖子上戴一块哑布? 想出这个主意的人应该获得诺贝尔奖。 那是他们给没脑子的人的奖励。 我和父母一起去了教堂。 迈克尔，瑞恩，还有尼尔那个裸体小孩在门口等着。 我让我父母进去，我在里面见他们。 “好吧，我们开始吧!”我告诉他们了。 我们四个人站成一排

started marching back and forth in front of the church. "DOWN WITH LOVE!" I chanted. "LOVE STINKS!" "NO MORE KISSING!" Ryan chanted. "KISSING SPREADS GERMS!"

开始在教堂前来回踱步。 “放下爱!”我高呼。 “爱臭!”“不许再接吻了!”瑞安高呼。 “接吻会传播细菌!”

"STOP THE WEDDING!" Michael chanted. "GIRLS HAVE COOTIES!" chanted Neil the nude kid. We were hoping other boys would join our protest, but nobody did. It was just the four of us marching back and forth. That's when Mr. Louie came out of the church. He was wearing a black robe. "What up, dudes?" he asked. "We're protesting against the wedding," I told him. "You said if somebody doesn't like something, they should protest." "Protesting against love is a bummer," Mr. Louie told us. "Come inside and sit down."

“停止婚礼!”迈克尔高呼。 “女孩有虱子!”裸体小孩尼尔喊道。 我们希望其他男孩能加入我们的抗议，但没有人参加。 只有我们四个人来回踱步。 这时路易先生从教堂出来了。 他穿着一件黑袍。 “怎么了，伙计们?”他问。 “我们在抗议这场婚礼，”我告诉他。 “你说过，如果有人不喜欢某件事，他们应该抗议。” “反对爱情是一件令人沮丧的事，”路易告诉我们。 “进来坐吧。”

So much for genius idea #1. It was time to try genius idea #2. Me and the guys went in the church and sat down together. *I had been to one wedding before. It was at our school, when Mr. Klutz married a pig. But I don't think that was a real wedding, because Mr. Klutz was already married to a human being named Mrs. Klutz. Mr. Louie stood at the front of the church. All our teachers were there. Mr. Klutz brought his wife (who wasn't a pig). Mrs. Cooney was there with some guy named Mr. Cooney. I hate him.

第一个天才想法就到此为止了。 是时候试试第二个天才点子了。 我和他们一起走进教堂，坐在一起。 我以前参加过一次婚礼。 就是在我们学校，克鲁茨先生娶了一头猪。 但我不认为那是一场真正的婚礼，因为克鲁茨先生已经娶了一个叫克鲁茨太太的人。 路易先生站在教堂的前面。 我们所有的老师都在那里。 克鲁茨先生带来了他的妻子(她不是猪)。 库尼太太和一个叫库尼先生的人在那里。 我恨他。

"Is it time?" Ryan whispered to me. "Not yet." My tie was choking me and I was really thirsty. But there was no way I was gonna drink from the water fountain. Mr. Louie probably put his love potion in that one too. There was no time to get a drink anyway, because some lady started playing that "Here Comes the Bride" song on the organ. Miss Daisy came from the back of the church and walked down the aisle with some old guy. She looked really pretty in her wedding dress. Then Mr. Macky walked across the aisle and stood next to Miss Daisy.

“时间到了吗?”瑞安小声对我说。 “还没有。”我的领带呛到我了，我真的很渴。 但我不可能从饮水机里喝水。 路易先生可能也把迷情药放进去了。 反正也没时间喝一杯了，因为有个女士开始用管风琴弹奏“新娘来了”这首歌。 黛西小姐从教堂的后面走过来，和一个老男人一起走过过道。 她穿着婚纱看起来真漂亮。 麦基先生穿过过道，站在黛西小姐旁边。
