4 Ch4-Wild Yak Attack

Chapter 4 Wild Yak Attack It was a candy machine! "We want candy!" everybody started chanting. "We want candy!" All the grown-ups came running over from wherever they were drinking coffee and talking about the weather. "We're not here to eat candy," Mr. Docker told us. "We're here to learn about dinosaurs and natural history." "I could learn a lot more about dinosaurs and natural history if I had candy," I told him. "No!"

第4章野牦牛攻击那是一台糖果机!“我们要糖果!”每个人都开始高喊。 “我们想要糖果!”大人们一边喝着咖啡，一边谈论着天气，全都跑了过来。 “我们不是来吃糖的，”多克先生告诉我们。 “我们来这里是为了了解恐龙和自然历史。” “如果我有糖果，我可以学到更多关于恐龙和自然历史的知识，”我告诉他。 “不!”

Sheesh, what an old grouch! Mr. Docker probably knows a lot about dinosaurs because they were around when he was a kid. We were all grumbling about the candy when I suddenly noticed something out of the corner of my eye. It was even more amazing than a candy machine. It was a big, brown, hairy animal with horns and a hump on its back! It was standing very still right next to us. "What's that?!" Neil the nude kid asked. "I don't know," said Mrs. Daisy, who doesn't know anything. "It's a wild yak!" said Andrea, who knows everything. "I learned about it in my encyclopedia. Yaks live in Tibet." "That yak wasn't here a minute ago," said Michael. "Maybe it just walked over," said Emily. "It can't walk over, dumbhead," I said. "It's dead." Emily looked like she was going to cry. That girl will cry over any old thing.

哎呀，真是个爱发牢骚的老家伙!多克先生可能对恐龙很了解，因为他小时候就看到恐龙了。 当我们都在抱怨糖果的时候，我突然注意到眼角的余光有什么东西。 它比糖果机更神奇。 它是一只巨大的、棕色的、毛茸茸的动物，有角，背上有一个驼峰!它一动不动地站在我们旁边。 “那是什么? !”裸体小孩尼尔问道。 “我不知道，”黛西太太说，她什么也不知道。 “是一头野牦牛!”安德烈说，他什么都知道。 “我在我的百科全书中了解到这一点。 牦牛生活在西藏。”“那头牦牛一分钟前还不在这里，”迈克尔说。 “也许它只是走过去了，”艾米丽说。 “它走不过去，笨蛋，”我说。 “这是死了。”艾米丽看起来好像要哭了。 那个女孩会为任何旧事而哭泣。

"Hey, I think that wild yak just moved," said Neil the nude kid. "It didn't move," I told him. "It's stuffed, just like the bear." But just then the yak let out a weird yak sound. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" yelled all the boys. "EEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKK!!!" yelled all the girls. I thought I was gonna die. Everybody was freaking out. That's when the wild yak threw off its wild yak fur. And do you know what was underneath? A lady! She had glasses, dark hair, and a pointy nose. On her belt were a walkie-talkie and a flashlight. "You must be the students from Ella Mentry School!" said the lady. "My name is Ms. Krup. I'll be your tour guide this evening." "I almost peed my pants!" said Ryan. "Sorry I scared you," Ms. Krup said. "I'm just so excited that you came to spend the evening with me in the museum. We're going to have so much fun! "Why are you wearing a wild yak fur?" asked Andrea.

“嘿，我想那头野牦牛刚刚动了，”裸体小孩尼尔说。 “它没有动，”我告诉他。 “它是填充的，就像熊一样。” 但就在这时，牦牛发出了一种奇怪的牦牛叫声。 “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ! !”所有的男孩嚷道。 “EEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKK!!”所有的女孩都喊了起来。 我以为我要死了。 每个人都吓坏了。 就在这时，野牦牛脱掉了它的野牦牛毛。 你知道下面是什么吗? 一位女士!她戴着眼镜，黑头发，尖鼻子。 她的腰带上挂着一个对讲机和一个手电筒。 “你们一定是艾拉门特里学校的学生吧!” “我是克鲁普女士。今晚我来当你们的导游。” “我差点尿裤子了!”瑞恩说。 “对不起，吓到你了，”克鲁普说。 “你来和我一起在博物馆过夜，我太兴奋了。 我们会玩得很开心的!“你为什么穿着野牦牛皮?”安德烈问。

"Well, the wild yak wasn't using it anymore," said Ms. Krup. "So I thought I would." That Ms. Krup lady is weird. Suddenly, the lights dimmed. "The museum is now closed," somebody announced. It was a little scary in the dark. Ms. Krup turned on her flashlight. We all gathered around her. "The museum is a magical place at night," she whispered as she gave each of us a name tag. "I'm going to take you on a journey. We're going to encounter some amazing creatures and see some incredible things. If you listen carefully, you can almost hear the sounds of the jungle, the forest, the desert, the mountains, and the ocean." "I don't hear anything," I said. "She said almost, dumbhead," Andrea told me. "Well, either you hear something or you don't," I said. "You can't almost hear something." "I wish I didn't hear you, Arlo."

“嗯，野牦牛不再用它了。” Krup。“所以我想我会的。” 那个克鲁普女士很奇怪。 突然，灯光暗了下来。 “博物馆现在关门了，”有人宣布。 在黑暗中有点吓人。 克鲁普打开手电筒。 我们都围着她。 “博物馆在晚上是一个神奇的地方，”她低声说，同时给了我们每个人一个名牌。 “我要带你去旅行。 我们会遇到一些神奇的生物，看到一些不可思议的事情。 如果你仔细听，你几乎可以听到丛林、森林、沙漠、山脉和海洋的声音。” “我什么也没听到，”我说。 “她说差不多，笨蛋，”安德里亚告诉我。 “嗯，要么你听到什么，要么你没有听到，”我说。 “你几乎听不到什么。” “我真希望我没听见你的话，阿乐。”

I was going to say something mean to Andrea, but I didn't get the chance because a loud BLEEP came out of Ms. Krup's walkie-talkie. We all jumped. "Ms. Krup!" a voice said. "Tyrannosaurus rex is missing!" "I'm on it, Chief!" said Ms. Krup. "Kids, we've got to find Rexy! Are you ready to go on an adventure?" "Yes!" said all the girls. "Can we kill it?" asked all the boys. "It's already dead, Arlo!" said Andrea, rolling her eyes. "Tyrannosaurus rex has been extinct for sixty million years." "Your face stinks." I bet Ms. Krup was yanking our chain about that missing T. rex. Dead stuff can't run away. She was just trying to make the boring museum seem interesting. "Follow me!" she said.

我本来想对安德里亚说些刻薄的话，但是我没有机会，因为从安德里亚小姐的嘴里发出了响亮的哔哔声。 Krup步话机。我们都跳了起来。 “克鲁普女士!”一个声音说。“雷克斯暴龙不见了!”“我这就去，头儿!” Krup。“孩子们，我们必须找到雷克斯!”你准备好去冒险了吗?”“是的!”所有的女孩都说。 “我们能杀了它吗?”男孩们都问。 “它已经死了，阿乐!”安德烈翻白眼说。 “雷克斯暴龙已经灭绝6000万年了。” “你的脸臭死了。”我敢打赌。 克鲁普一直在取笑我们那个失踪的T。 雷克斯。死去的东西是不会逃跑的。 她只是想让无聊的博物馆变得有趣。 “跟我来!”她说。
