Creepy Plants

怪异植物

Let's go for a walk, Buster," a man said. He put a leash on his dog. They went outside. A big creepy plant grew in the man's front yard. Oh my, he said. Where did that strange plant come from? He stepped closer. Suddenly the plant opened a large mouth.

“巴斯特，咱们去散步吧。”一个男人说道。 他给狗狗拴上了牵引绳。 他俩走到了屋外。 男人家的前院里长着一株好大的怪异植物。 “天呐。”他说。 “这株奇怪的植物是打哪儿来的呀？” 他往前凑近了几步。 突然，那株植物张开了一张大嘴巴。

Oh no! The man cried out. Gulp! I'm so glad it's Friday, Mara said. Roxy and her friends were walking home from school. Me too, Jack said. I can't believe we had three quizzes in one day!

“噢不！” 男人大叫起来。 “咕嘟！” “今天是周五可太开心啦。”玛拉说。 罗克西和朋友们正放学走在回家的路上。 “我也是。”杰克说，“真不敢相信我们一天居然考了三次小测！”

Suddenly, Tarell pointed. What is that? Everyone looked. A creepy plant was growing next to someone's house. Wow! Mara said. That looks like something from another planet. There's a plant like that in my backyard, Jack said. It's a lot bigger though.

突然，塔雷尔伸手指了指。 “那是什么呀？” 所有人都看了过去。 一户人家的房子旁边长着一株怪异的植物。 “哇！”玛拉说道。 “它看起来就像是外星球来的东西耶。” “我家后院就长着一株这样的植物。”杰克说。 “不过它可比这株大多啦。”

My mom was wondering what it is. We have a vegetable garden, but we didn't plant anything like that. Roxy looked at the plant closely as she walked past it. I wonder what kind of plant it is. Tarell laughed. Maybe it's an alien plant. He held out his arms to look like claws.

我妈妈还在纳闷它是什么呢。我们家有个菜园，可我们从来没种过这种东西。 罗克西走过那株植物的时候，凑过去仔细看了看。 “真想知道这是哪种植物呀。” 塔雷尔笑了起来。 “说不定它是外星植物哦。” 他张开胳膊，摆出爪子的样子。

Look out Mara, the alien plant is coming after you! Mara rolled her eyes. You're ridiculous, Tarell. Jack kept walking. Come on, he said. When we get to my house, I'll show you my plant. A moment later they got to Jack's house.

“玛拉小心！外星植物要来抓你啦！” 玛拉翻了个白眼。 “塔雷尔，你也太傻了吧。” 杰克继续往前走。 “快点呀。”他说。 “等走到我家，我就给你们看我家那株植物。” 没一会儿，他们就到了杰克家。
