Ch7-Skid-Dat-De-Dat!

CHAPTER SEVEN Skid-Dat-De-Dat! Dipper closed the door. It was pitch-black inside the shop. As the wind howled outside, the broken shutters banged against the brick walls. A gust of damp air blew through the room. "It's dark in here," said Annie. "And cold." "It's creepy," said Jack.

第七章滚蛋！迪珀关上了门。 商店里一片漆黑。 外面狂风呼啸，破碎的百叶窗砰砰地撞在砖墙上。 一阵潮湿的空气吹进了房间。 “这里太黑了，”安妮说。 “又冷。”“太吓人了，”杰克说。

"Yup," said Dipper. "Let's leave. I've changed my mind about staying here. We can find some other place to get out of the storm." "Good idea," said Annie. "Great idea!" said Jack. Jack heard Dipper rattle the door handle. "Uh-oh," said Dipper. "Uh-oh what?" said Jack. "Won't open," said Dipper. "It's stuck." Jack felt the hair rise on the back of his neck. The shutters banged in the wind. "Hold on a second, I've got some matches in my pocket," said Dipper. "I just hope they didn't get wet in the rain."

“是的，”迪珀说。“让我们离开。 我已经改变主意不待在这里了。 我们可以找别的地方躲避风暴。” “好主意，”安妮说。“好主意！”杰克说。 杰克听见迪珀在摇门把手。 “哦哦，”迪珀说。“啊哦，什么？”杰克说。 “打不开，”迪珀说。 “这是卡住了。”杰克感到脖子后面的头发都竖起来了。 百叶窗在风中砰砰作响。 “等一下，我口袋里有火柴，”迪珀说。 “我只希望他们没有被雨淋湿。”

Jack heard Dipper trying to strike a match. He tried one, two, three times—then he held up a small flame. "Yay" breathed Annie. Jack looked around the room. In the dancing light, he could make out wooden buckets on the floor, a couple of broken chairs, a doorway leading to a back room, and— Squeak! A bat flapped above their heads. "Ahhh!" Jack, Annie, and Dipper ducked. The match went out. Dipper quickly lit another match. He held it up high, trying to light the room. Jack didn't see the bat, but he saw a bricked-over fireplace, some rusty lanterns, and lots of spiderwebs.

杰克听到迪珀想划火柴。 他试了一、二、三次，然后举起一根小火苗。 “耶！”安妮轻声说。杰克环顾了一下房间。 在摇曳的灯光下，他辨认出地板上有几个木桶，几把破椅子，一扇通向里屋的门，还有——吱吱！一只蝙蝠在他们头上拍打着翅膀。 “啊!”杰克、安妮和迪珀躲了起来。 火柴熄灭了。迪伯很快又点燃了一根火柴。 他把它举得高高的，试图照亮房间。 杰克没有看到蝙蝠，但他看到了一个砖砌的壁炉，一些生锈的灯笼和许多蜘蛛网。

"Yikes!" said Annie. The match went out. "Help," said Annie in a small voice. "More light, please." "Nobody panic," said Dipper. "I got two matches left." "Just two?" said Annie. "Hey, I thought I saw some lanterns," said Jack. "Near the fireplace. Maybe we could light them."

“哎呀！”安妮说。火柴熄灭了。 “救命，”安妮小声说。 “请再亮一点。”“不要惊慌，”迪珀说。 “我还剩两根火柴。”“就两个？”安妮说。 “嘿，我想我看到了一些灯笼，”杰克说。 “在壁炉附近。也许我们可以点燃它们。”

"Good idea," said Dipper. "Maybe there's oil still in 'em. I just hope I can light the wicks. Or we'll be left in the dark with the bats." "And spiders," said Annie. And ghosts, Jack thought. Dipper struck his next-to-last match. He held it up to find the lanterns. "Over here," said Jack, pointing. "I see," said Dipper. But as he knelt on the floor, the match went out. "I got just one more," he whispered. "So we better be real careful." Dipper lit his last match. Jack slowly lifted the glass on both the lanterns. Very carefully, Dipper touched the match flame to the wick of the first

“好主意，”迪珀说。“也许里面还有石油。 我只希望我能点亮灯芯。 否则我们就会和蝙蝠一起呆在黑暗中。” “还有蜘蛛，”安妮说。 还有鬼魂，杰克想。迪珀划了倒数第二根火柴。 他把它举起来找灯笼。 “这边。”杰克指着说。 “我明白了，”迪珀说。但当他跪在地板上时，火柴熄灭了。 “我只剩一个了。”他低声说。 “所以我们最好非常小心。” 迪珀点燃了最后一根火柴。 杰克慢慢地举起两个灯笼上的杯子。 迪伯小心翼翼地把火柴的火焰碰在第一根蜡烛的灯芯上

lantern. The wick sputtered and flickered to life. A yellow glow filled the room. "Ahh!" said Dipper. He lit the second lantern. "Beautiful. You can each carry one." Jack picked up one of the lanterns. Annie put down her trumpet and picked up the other one. The firelight cast eerie shadows on the walls. Screeeee! A sound from the back room startled them. It sounded like the creak of a door opening. Jack's heart began to pound. WHAM! The sound of a door slamming shut! Jack's heart beat faster and faster. "Hey!" called Dipper. "Who's back there?"

灯笼。灯芯噼里啪啦地响了一下，又亮了起来。 房间里充满了黄色的光芒。 “啊！”迪珀说。他点燃了第二盏灯笼。 “美丽的。你们每人可以拿一个。” 杰克拿起一盏灯笼。 安妮放下她的小号，拿起另一只。 火光在墙上投下诡异的阴影。 Screeeee !从后屋传来的声音吓了他们一跳。 听起来像是开门的声音。 杰克的心开始怦怦直跳。 哇!门砰地关上的声音！杰克的心跳越来越快。 “嘿！”迪珀叫道。“谁在后面？”
