9 Ch9-Vowel Movements and the Third Degree

Chapter 9 Vowel Movements and the Third Degree I was all mixed up. I was in love with Mrs. Cooney and wanted to grow up and marry her. But what if she was secretly a spy who was selling information to some guy who wanted to take over the world? I was starting to feel sick. I mean really sick. Not fake sick.

第9章元音运动和第三度我全搞混了。 我爱上了库尼太太，想长大后娶她。 但如果她是个秘密间谍卖情报给某个想统治世界的人呢? 我开始觉得不舒服。 我是说真的病了。不是装病。

"A.J., you don't look good," Miss Daisy said. "Do you need to go to the nurse's office?" "No!" I said. "Not that! I'm fine." "A.J., I want you to go to the nurse's office," Miss Daisy said "Now." So I went to Mrs. Cooney's office. "Hi, A.J.," she said cheerfully. "Feeling a little under the weather?" "No. I feel fine," I said. "Can I go back to class?" "Not so fast."

“a.j.，你气色不好，”黛西小姐说。 “你需要去护士办公室吗?”“不!”我说。 “不!我很好。”“a.j.，我要你去护士办公室，”黛西小姐说，“现在。” 所以我去了库尼夫人的办公室。 “嗨，a.j.，”她高兴地说。 “感觉有点不舒服?”“没有。 我感觉很好，”我说。“我能回去上课吗?”“别那么快。”

Oh no. She was going to have me stand on my head or juggle Ping-Pong balls or put her Beanie Babies in ABC order. Or something equally weird. "I want to ask you a few questions," said Mrs. Cooney. "When was your last bowel movement?" Huh? I didn't quite hear what she said. Bowel movement? What's that? I didn't know what a bowel was, so how could I possibly know if it moved? I didn't want Mrs. Cooney to know that I didn't know what a bowel movement was. Maybe she said "vowel movement." That would make more sense. Vowels move all the time. But I didn't know

哦,不。她会让我倒立，耍乒乓球，或者把她的豆豆娃按ABC顺序排列。 或者是一些同样奇怪的事情。 “我想问你几个问题，”库尼太太说。 “你最后一次排便是什么时候?”嗯? 我没听清她说什么。 排便吗?那是什么? 我不知道肠是什么，所以我怎么可能知道它会不会动呢? 我不想让库尼太太知道我不知道排便是什么。 也许她说的是“元音运动”。 这样更有意义。 元音一直在移动。但我不知道

which vowel she was talking about. "A?" I guessed. "I said when was your last bowel movement?" Mrs. Cooney asked. "Y?" I asked. "Why?" said Mrs. Cooney. "Because that will help me know what's wrong with you." I didn't know what vowels had to do with what was wrong with me. "I-O-U," I said. "You owe me what?" Mrs. Cooney asked. "A.J. can you please just answer my questions? What did you have for breakfast today?" That's when it hit me. Mrs. Cooney was

她说的是哪个元音。 “一个?”我猜到了。“我说你最后一次排便是什么时候?”库尼太太问。 “Y ?”我问。“为什么?”库尼太太说。 “因为这样我就能知道你到底怎么了。” 我不知道元音和我的毛病有什么关系。 “I-o-u，”我说。“你欠我什么?”库尼太太问。 " a。j。你能回答我的问题吗? 你今天早餐吃了什么?”那是我突然想到的。 库尼太太是

doing what all those cops do with bad guys. She was giving me the third degree. What if I told her some important piece of top secret information? And what if she sold it to that bad guy who wants to take over the world? And what if that guy took over the world? It would be my fault! The fate of the whole world was on my shoulders! I decided that I wasn't going to give Mrs. Cooney any information. I didn't care how beautiful she was. I wouldn't answer any of her questions, even if she shined that head lice light in my eyes. "A.J., did you eat breakfast this

做那些警察对付坏人的事。 她对我严刑逼供。 如果我告诉她一些重要的绝密信息呢? 如果她把它卖给了那个想统治世界的坏人呢? 如果那个人统治了世界呢? 那将是我的错!整个世界的命运都在我的肩上!我决定不给库尼太太任何信息。 我不在乎她有多漂亮。 我不会回答她的任何问题，即使她用头虱灯照我的眼睛。 aj，你今天吃早餐了吗

morning?" Mrs. Cooney asked. "That's for me to know and you to find out," I said, crossing my arms in front of me. "I beg your pardon?" Mrs. Cooney said. "I have the right to remain silent," I said "A.J., I only asked you if you ate breakfast." "That's classified information," I replied. "Who wants to know? I want a lawyer." "Don't be silly, A.J." "Are you going to torture me?" I asked. "That's what they do in the movies." "A.J., you're acting very strangely today," Mrs. Cooney said.

早上?”库尼太太问。 “这是我知道的，你自己去发现。”我说着，双臂交叉在胸前。 “你说什么?”库尼太太说。 “我有权保持沉默，”我说，“aj，我只是问你有没有吃早餐。” “那是机密信息，”我回答。 “谁想知道?”我要请律师。” “别傻了，A.J.。”“你要折磨我吗?”我问。 “电影里就是这么演的。” “aj，你今天的行为很奇怪，”库尼太太说。
