《火箭女孩对战维奥莱特·夏普 第一集：公园里的音乐会》

People hurried through the Metro City subway station. Out of my way! A man said. I'm late for work! A young woman walked into the station. She had a violin and a hat. She placed the hat on the floor. Then she ran her bow across the violin strings.

地铁城的地铁站里，人们脚步匆匆。 让开！ 一个男人嚷嚷道。 我上班要迟到了！ 一名年轻女子走进了车站。 她拿着一把小提琴，还戴了顶帽子。 她把帽子放在了地上。 接着她拿起琴弓，拉响了小提琴的琴弦。

Strange music filled the air. Everyone stopped walking. They all turned to stare at the young woman. Suddenly they pulled out their wallets and tossed them into the hat. I can't wait for the concert to start!

奇怪的音乐飘满了空气中，所有人都停下了脚步，纷纷转头盯着那个年轻女子。 突然大家都掏出钱包，往帽子里扔。 我都等不及音乐会开始啦！

Mara said, It'll be so cool to hear a real orchestra. Roxy and her friends were at Metro City Park. The Metro City Symphony Orchestra was going to perform a concert. People sat on blankets on the grass. The musicians were on stage tuning their instruments.

玛拉说： 能听到真正的管弦乐队演奏，太酷啦。 罗克西和她的朋友们正在地铁城公园里。 地铁城交响乐团要在这里举办一场音乐会。 大家都坐在草地上铺的毯子上。 乐手们在舞台上调试乐器。

It's really warm today, Mara said. Temperature affects musical instruments. That's why the musicians are checking them now. I love live music, Terrell said. I might join the school jazz band next year. I've been taking clarinet lessons. Jack shrugged. I guess the concert will be okay.

玛拉说：“今天真暖和，温度会影响乐器的状态哦。” 所以乐手们现在都在检查乐器呢，我可喜欢现场演奏的音乐啦。 特雷尔说：“明年我说不定会参加学校的爵士乐队，我一直在上” 单簧管课。杰克耸耸肩：“我觉得这场音乐会应该还行吧。”

I don't really like classical music though. I like rock and roll! Jack jumped to his feet. He held up his hands as if he was holding a guitar. Everyone laughed as Jack danced around pretending to be a rock star. Well, I like classical music, Mara said.

不过我其实不太喜欢古典音乐。 我喜欢摇滚乐！ 杰克一下子跳了起来。 他举着双手，就好像手里拿着一把吉他似的。 杰克假装自己是摇滚明星蹦来蹦去，大家都笑了。 玛拉说：“唔，我就喜欢古典音乐。”
