6 Ch6-The Museum of Hanging Gargabe

Chapter 6 The Museum of Hanging Garbage For a few days, I was the star of the school. No kid had ever been inside the teachers' lounge. I was probably the first one in the history of the world. Everybody wanted to know about the incredible things I saw in the teachers' lounge. Kids were even offering me

有几天，我是学校里的明星。 从来没有孩子进过教师休息室。 我可能是世界历史上第一个。 每个人都想知道我在教师休息室看到的不可思议的东西。 孩子们甚至向我求婚

candy to tell them. I didn't want to tell them the teachers' lounge was just a boring old room where the teachers sat around eating lunch. I didn't want to lie, either. So I just told them that the teachers blindfolded me and said they would torture me if I ever revealed what went on in the teachers' lounge. It was cool. Our next art class wasn't an art class at all. Ms. Hannah took us on a field trip to a museum. I hate museums. Museums are boring. "Why don't we ever take a field trip to a cool place like a skateboard park?" I asked Ryan on the bus ride over to the museum.

糖果告诉他们。我不想告诉他们教师休息室只是一个无聊的旧房间，老师们围坐在那里吃午饭。 我也不想撒谎。 所以我就告诉他们，老师们蒙住了我的眼睛，还说如果我透露教师休息室里发生的事情，他们就会折磨我。 很酷。我们下一堂美术课根本就不是美术课了。 汉娜老师带我们去博物馆实地考察。 我讨厌博物馆。博物馆很无聊。 “我们为什么不去一个很酷的地方实地考察，比如滑板公园呢?”我在去博物馆的公车上问瑞恩。

"What's so great about skateboard parks?" Andrea asked from the seat in front of me. "Well, for one thing, you're not there," I said. Ryan laughed. Andrea made a mean face at me. "I like museums," she said. "My mom takes me to museums all the time." "Too bad she doesn't leave you there," I said.

“滑板公园有什么好?”安德里亚坐在我前面的座位上问。 “嗯，首先，你不在那儿，”我说。 莱恩笑了。安德里亚对我做了个刻薄的鬼脸。 “我喜欢博物馆，”她说。 “我妈妈总是带我去博物馆。” “可惜她没有把你留在那儿，”我说。

Ryan laughed. We walked around the museum for about a million hundred hours. Ms. Hannah was all excited. She just about ran from room to room telling us about all the wonderful art. It was horrible and boring, and I was hungry and my legs were tired. I looked for a place to sit down. There were some big boxes of soup cans in the corner, and I went to take a rest on them. But as soon as I sat down, all these loud bells started ringing and guards came running over. One of them was blowing a whistle, and he started yelling at me.

莱恩笑了。我们在博物馆里转了大约100万个小时。 汉娜女士非常兴奋。 她从一个房间跑到另一个房间，给我们讲那些美妙的艺术品。 这是可怕的和无聊的，我饿了，我的腿累了。 我找了个地方坐下。 角落里有几大盒汤罐头，我走过去在上面休息。 但我一坐下，所有这些响亮的钟声就开始响起，警卫们跑过来。 其中一个在吹口哨，然后他开始对我大喊大叫。

"Get up!" he shouted. "You can't sit there!" "Okay, okay!" I said, getting up fast. "I'll sit someplace else." What's the big deal? I wondered. The guard looked like he was going to arrest me or something. Luckily Ms. Hannah ran over and rescued me. I asked her what I did, and she told me that I had

“起来!”他喊道。“你不能坐在那儿!”“好了,好了!”我说着，迅速站了起来。 “我要坐在别的地方。” 这有什么大不了的?我想知道。 那个警卫看起来像是要逮捕我什么的。 幸好汉娜女士跑过来救了我。 我问她我做了什么，她告诉我我做了

sat on some art. "That's art?" I asked. "I thought it was boxes of soup." "It's modern art!" she said. "That is a famous sculpture that is worth millions of dollars." It looked like soup boxes to me. Ms. Hannah told me to remember that art is everywhere, so I should be careful what I sat on. She put her arm around me and kept it there for the rest of the time we were in the museum. We walked around and she kept pointing out the beautiful artwork all over the place. "Look at this!" she kept saying. "Isn't it marvelous?"

坐在一些艺术品上。“这是艺术吗?”我问。 “我还以为是几盒汤呢。” “这是现代艺术!”她说。 “那是一件价值数百万美元的著名雕塑。” 在我看来就像汤盒。 汉娜老师告诉我要记住，艺术无处不在，所以我应该小心我坐的东西。 在博物馆的其余时间里，她一直搂着我。 我们四处走动，她不停地指给我们看到处都是漂亮的艺术品。 “看看这个!”她不停地说。 “这不是很奇妙吗?”
