Make Your Own Bug Spray!
自制驱虫喷雾!
Jason couldn’t concentrate. He couldn’t even walk. His legs were so itchy! Last night he and his dad had eaten dinner outside. By the time they went inside, Jason was covered in mosquito bites. Itchy, horrible mosquito bites. “ I can’t take it anymore! ” Jason showed everyone the red spots on his legs.
杰森无法集中注意力。 他甚至不能走路。他的腿好痒! 昨晚他和他爸爸在外面吃了晚饭。 当他们进去的时候,杰森浑身都是蚊虫叮咬。 痒,可怕的蚊子叮咬。 “我再也受不了了!”杰森向大家展示了他腿上的红色斑点。
“ Wow, ” said Nina. “ They look itchy. ” “ You should have used bug spray, ” said Izzie. “ I can’t use bug spray, ” Jason said. “ Why not?” Nina asked. “ Because I’m allergic to the chemicals. ” Jason frowned. “ Well then it’s your lucky day! ” said Mr. Dunn.
“哇,”尼娜说。“它们看起来很痒。” 伊兹说:“你应该用杀虫剂。” “我不能用杀虫剂,”杰森说。 “为什么不呢?”尼娜问道。 “因为我对化学物质过敏。”杰森皱了皱眉。 “那么今天就是你的幸运日了!”邓恩先生说。
“ Lucky?” Jason echoed. “ What’s lucky about mosquito bites?” “ We’re making Campers’ Bug Spray today, ” Mr. Dunn explained. “ It’s all- natural bug spray. ” “ Really?” Jason didn’t believe it. “ How do you make it?”
“幸运吗?”杰森附和道。“蚊虫叮咬有什么好运气?” 邓恩先生解释道:“我们今天正在制作露营者驱虫喷雾”。“这都是天然的杀虫剂。” “真的吗?”杰森不相信。“你是怎么做到的?”
“ Mr. Dunn is a chemistry teacher. So he can explain what to do. Right, Mr. Dunn?” Bobby looked at his teacher. “ That’s the plan. ” Mr. Dunn nodded. “ Have a seat. ” “ In some of these bottles are very strong oils called essential oils. ” “ By mixing certain essential oils, you can make a scent that will send mosquitoes running. ”
“邓恩先生是一名化学老师。所以他可以解释该怎么做。对吧,邓恩先生?”鲍比看着他的老师。 “这就是计划。”邓恩先生点了点头。“请坐。” “这些瓶子里有一些非常浓烈的精油,称为精油。” “通过混合某些精油,你可以产生一种气味,让蚊子跑来跑去。”
Mr. Dunn coughed. “ I mean, flying. ” Nina giggled. She liked Mr. Dunn’s silly jokes. “ But won’t the scent make us want to run away too?” Ethan asked. “ I don’t think so. But you can decide for yourself in a minute, ” Mr. Dunn said.
邓恩先生咳嗽了一声。“我是说,飞行。” 尼娜咯咯笑了起来。她喜欢邓恩先生的愚蠢笑话。 “但气味不会让我们也想逃跑吗?”伊森问道。 “我不这么认为。但你可以在一分钟内自己决定,”邓恩先生说。
