10 Ch10-Penguins Are Cool

Chapter 10 Penguins Are Cool It was dark and quiet. The little hand on the clock was past twelve, so I knew it was after midnight. But I ate so much sugar, there was no way I was going to get to sleep. "Let's slink around by the animals!" I suggested. "Yeah!" agreed Michael. "You're going to get in trouble," Andrea said. "I'm going to tell Mrs. Daisy," said Emily. "Fine," I said. "Tell her. And I'll tell her that you ate all that candy." Me and Michael slinked around the first floor like secret agents. Andrea and Emily, the big copycats, followed us. We looked at the moose again, and the buffalo and the gorillas. The animals looked even more real late at night. That's when I saw it. The most amazing thing in the history of the world. But I'm not going to tell you what it was. Okay, okay, I'll tell you. And you don't even have to read the next chapter. It was a diorama filled with penguins! Penguins! I must have missed this before. I'm sure I would have

第十章企鹅很酷这是黑暗和安静的。 时钟上的小指针已经过了12点，所以我知道已经过了午夜。 但是我吃了太多的糖，我根本睡不着。 “我们在动物旁边溜吧!”我建议。 “是啊!”迈克尔附和道。“你会有麻烦的，”安德里亚说。 “我要告诉黛西太太，”艾米丽说。 “好吧，”我说。“告诉她。 我会告诉她你吃光了所有的糖果。” 我和迈克尔像特工一样在一楼鬼鬼祟祟地走动。 安德里亚和艾米丽，模仿高手，跟着我们。 我们又看了看驼鹿、水牛和大猩猩。 这些动物在深夜看起来更加真实。 就在那时我看到了它。世界历史上最神奇的事情。 但我不会告诉你是什么。 好吧，好吧，我告诉你。 你甚至不用读下一章。 这是一个充满企鹅的立体模型!企鹅!我以前一定是错过了。 我肯定我会的

remembered it. I pressed my nose against the glass. Ever since I was little, I loved penguins. I slept with a stuffed penguin in my crib when I was a baby. I dressed up like a penguin for Halloween. I used to have an imaginary penguin friend. I saw every penguin movie there was to see. Looking at those penguins close-up, I was hypnotized. I could almost hear them speaking to me. "Come with us, A.J.!" one of the penguins said. "We'll go to Antarctica! You can play with us forever and ever and ever." "Kids don't have to go to school in Antarctica," said the second penguin. "There are no teachers to tell you what to do. There are no parents to yell at you. There are no problems. It's paradise." "In Antarctica we don't care if you secretly love Andrea," said the third penguin. "Come with us and live in peace," said the fourth penguin. "We'll slide around on the ice all day. It'll be fun." "I'm coming," I told the penguins. "I'm coming with you...." Suddenly, I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was Michael's.

记得它。我把鼻子贴在玻璃上。 我从小就喜欢企鹅。 当我还是个婴儿的时候，我睡在我的婴儿床里有一只企鹅毛绒玩具。 我在万圣节打扮成一只企鹅。 我以前有一个想象中的企鹅朋友。 我看了所有能看的企鹅电影。 看着这些企鹅的特写，我被催眠了。 我几乎能听到他们在对我说话。 “跟我们来，A.J.!”其中一只企鹅说。 “我们要去南极洲!”你可以永远、永远、永远和我们一起玩。” “在南极洲，孩子们不需要去上学，”第二只企鹅说。 “没有老师告诉你该怎么做。 没有父母对你大喊大叫。 没有问题。这是天堂。” “在南极洲，我们不在乎你是否暗恋安德里亚，”第三只企鹅说。 “跟我们一起和平生活吧，”第四只企鹅说。 “我们会在冰上滑一整天。 会很有趣的。”“我来了，”我告诉企鹅们。 “我和你一起去....”突然，我感到有一只手搭在我的肩膀上。 那是迈克尔的。

"A.J., are you okay?" he asked. "Who are you talking to, man?" "Uh, nobody." It must have been the sugar.

“aj，你还好吗?”他问。 “你在跟谁说话呢，伙计?”“呃,没人。” 一定是糖的缘故。
