1 Ch1-A Bathroom Emergency

Chapter 1 A Bathroom Emergency My name is A.J. and I hate school. Listen, I'm about to tell you something I never told anyone else. I never even told my best friends, Michael and Ryan. But you can't tell anyone. It's a secret. Promise? Cross your heart and hope to die? Are you ready? Okay, here's the secret.

第一章厕所紧急事件我叫A.J. 我讨厌学校。听着，我要告诉你一件我从没告诉过别人的事。 我甚至都没告诉我最好的朋友，迈克尔和瑞恩。 但你不能告诉任何人。 这是个秘密。承诺吗?你发誓，希望去死吗? 你准备好了吗?好吧，这是秘密。

I can't tell you. Oh, all right, I'll tell you. Sometimes, when I'm at school, I ask my teacher, Miss Daisy, if I can go to the bathroom even though I don't really have to go to the bathroom. That's the secret. Okay, okay, so it isn't such a great secret. But sometimes I just get that antsy feeling, and I want to get out of class for a few minutes. So I ask to go to the boys' room. I was feeling that antsy feeling one day in class. Miss Daisy was talking about weather, and she was showing us pictures

我不能告诉你。好吧，我告诉你。 有时候，当我在学校的时候，我会问我的老师黛西小姐，我能不能去洗手间，即使我真的不需要去洗手间。 这就是秘诀。好吧，好吧，这不是什么大秘密。 但有时我只是感到焦虑，我想离开教室几分钟。 所以我要求去男厕所。 有一天我在课堂上感到坐立不安。 黛西小姐在谈论天气，给我们看照片

of volcanoes and tornadoes. It was pretty cool, but I just wanted to stretch my legs for a few minutes. So I raised my hand and asked Miss Daisy if I could go to the boys' room. She said okay. Nobody else was in the boys' room. I didn't have much to do in there. There's not a whole lot to do in a bathroom, except for go to the bathroom, which I didn't have to do. I looked in the mirror for a minute and made funny faces. I washed my hands. I shot paper towels at the garbage can. Then I figured I'd better get back to class. I thought I should flush the toilet because then it would sound like I really

火山和龙卷风。 这很酷，但我只是想伸展一下腿。 于是我举手问黛西小姐我能不能去一下男生的房间。 她说好的。男厕所里没其他人。 我在里面没什么事要做。 在浴室里没什么事可做，除了去洗手间，我本来不用去的。 我对着镜子看了一会儿，做了一些鬼脸。 我洗手了。我朝垃圾桶扔纸巾。 然后我想我最好还是回去上课吧。 我觉得我应该冲厕所因为那样听起来就像我真的

went to the bathroom. So I flushed it. You know how the water is supposed to swirl around and around the toilet bowl like a little tornado and then go down the hole in the bottom? Well, this water didn't swirl at all. It didn't go down the hole, either. It just started rising. It got higher. And higher. It went all the way up to the very edge of the bowl. I started to panic. And then it went over the edge and started spilling onto the floor! Water was pouring out of the toilet bowl! It looked just like those erupting volcanoes Miss Daisy was telling us about. I thought I was gonna die.

我去了洗手间。所以我把它冲了 你知道水应该像龙卷风一样绕着马桶旋转，然后顺着底部的洞流下去吗? 这些水根本没有旋转。 它也没有掉进洞里。 它开始上升。它变得更高了。 甚至更高。它一直延伸到碗的边缘。 我开始恐慌起来。然后它从边缘溢出，开始洒到地板上!水正从马桶里倒出来!它看起来就像黛西小姐告诉我们的那些正在喷发的火山。 我以为我要死了。

I didn't know what to say. I didn't know what to do. I had to think fast. So I ran out of the boys' room and started yelling. "Help! There's a volcano in the boys' room! Run for your life! It's erupting! The toilet is going to explode!" Everybody came running out of our class, even

我不知道该说什么。 我不知道该怎么办。我必须快速思考。 所以我跑出男生房间，开始大喊大叫。 “救命!男生的房间里有座火山!快逃命!这是爆发!马桶要爆炸了!”甚至每个人都跑出了我们的教室
