Fourth-of-July Ice Pops

Fourth-of-July Ice Pops

7月4日冰爆

Nina was playing Frisbee at summer camp. But she was thinking about Saturday. In just two days her family would go to see the town fireworks. “ Mr. Dunn, I love the Fourth of July, ” Nina said. “ Everything is red, white, and blue. And fireworks are so cool. ” “ The Fourth of July is fun, isn’t it?” Mr. Dunn said.

妮娜在夏令营玩飞盘。 但她在想周六。再过两天，她的家人就会去看镇上的烟火表演。 “邓恩先生，我喜欢七月四日，”妮娜说。“一切都是红色、白色和蓝色的。烟花太酷了。” “七月四日很有趣，不是吗？”邓恩先生说。

“ My family always has a big barbecue. My dad and brothers love to grill. ” “ My dad loves to grill too! ” Bobby said. “ I always eat lots of watermelon on the Fourth, ” Izzie said.

“我家总是有一个大烧烤。我爸爸和兄弟们都喜欢烧烤。” “我爸爸也喜欢烧烤！”鲍比说。 伊兹说：“我总是在第四天吃很多西瓜。”

“ You know what the kids in my family do on the Fourth?“ ” They make red-white- and-blue ice pops. Then they eat them while watching fireworks, ” said Mr. Dunn. “ Red, white, and blue ice pops? I bet they’re pretty, ” Nina said. “ Yeah. They’re pretty—and pretty easy to make, ” Mr. Dunn said, chuckling. “ Can we make them at camp?” Nina asked. “ Please? It’s almost the Fourth of July. ”

“你知道我家的孩子们在第四天做什么吗？” “他们制作红白蓝相间的冰淇淋。然后他们一边看烟花一边吃，”邓恩先生说。 “红色、白色和蓝色的冰块？我打赌他们很漂亮，”妮娜说。 “是的。它们很漂亮，很容易制作，”邓恩笑着说。 妮娜问：“我们能在营地里做吗？”。“求你了？快到7月4日了。”

Mr. Dunn smiled. “ That’s a great idea, Nina. I’ll bring in everything we need tomorrow. ” The next day Mr. Dunn brought in paper cups, wooden craft sticks, and three big bottles.

邓恩先生笑了。“这是个好主意，妮娜。明天我会把我们需要的一切都带来。” 第二天，邓恩先生带来了纸杯、木棒和三个大瓶子。

Nina looked at the bottles. “ Ooh, red juice, ” she said. “ That’s sweet strawberry juice. Made it myself, ” Mr. Dunn said. “ Blue juice. ” Nina picked up another bottle. “ Grape-blueberry blend. That’s cool. And white juice. Wait a minute— white juice?”

妮娜看了看瓶子。“哦，红色果汁，”她说。 “那是甜草莓汁。我自己做的，”邓恩先生说。 “蓝色果汁。”妮娜拿起另一瓶。 “葡萄蓝莓混合。很酷。还有白汁。等一下-白汁？”
