Soda Bottle Terrariums

Soda Bottle Terrariums

苏打瓶水族馆

Ethan was thinking hard as he walked to the playground. It was almost the end of summer camp, and he was sad. He didn’t know if he’d see Mr. Dunn after camp was over. He wanted to give Mr. Dunn something that would show how much everyone liked camp. He wanted it to be something that would help Mr. Dunn to remember everyone.

伊森走到操场时，正在认真思考。 夏令营快结束了，他很难过。他不知道营地结束后是否会见到邓恩先生。 他想给邓恩先生一些东西，让他知道每个人都多么喜欢露营。 他希望它能帮助邓恩先生记住每个人。

“ Hey, Ethan, ” Mr. Dunn said cheerfully. “ Did you bring your empty soda bottle?” Ethan pulled a bottle out of his backpack. “ What is it for?” “ We’re going to use it to make a terrarium. ” Mr. Dunn held up a package of seeds. “ Has anyone ever heard of a terrarium?” he asked.

“嘿，伊森，”邓恩先生高兴地说。“你把空汽水瓶带来了吗？” 伊森从背包里拿出一个瓶子。“这是干什么的？” “我们打算用它来制作一个玻璃器皿。”邓恩先生举起一包种子。 “有人听说过玻璃器皿吗？”他问道。

“ Ooh, my pet frog, Gurpy, lives in a terrarium! ” " Wow! Are we growing frogs, Mr. Dunn? Are we?” Izzie asked excitedly. Mr. Dunn laughed. “ Terrariums can be for animals or plants. We’re going to plant seeds in our bottles. Not frogs. Sorry, Izzie. ”

“哦，我的宠物青蛙，格比，住在一个玻璃缸里！” “哇！我们在种青蛙吗，邓恩先生？是吗？”伊兹兴奋地问。 邓恩先生笑了。 “玻璃容器可以是动物或植物。我们将在瓶子里播种。而不是青蛙。对不起，伊兹。”

Ethan giggled. Poor Izzie looked disappointed. “ But first we need to get some pebbles and soil. ” Mr. Dunn held up large paper cups. “ Let’s head to the woods. ” Mr. Dunn pointed to the ground underneath a tree. “ Here’s a good place to get soil. ”

伊森咯咯笑了起来。可怜的伊兹看起来很失望。 “但首先我们需要一些鹅卵石和泥土。” 邓恩先生举起了大纸杯。“我们去树林吧。” 邓恩先生指着树下的地面。“这是一个获取土壤的好地方。”

Ethan stuck a cup into the soil. “ Is it okay if we scoop up worms?” “ A soda bottle is a pretty small home for a worm, ” Mr. Dunn said. “ Let’s leave the worms out here in the woods. ” Ethan nodded. Mr. Dunn always had good answers. The kids were ready to create their terrariums.

伊森把一个杯子插进土里。“我们挖虫子可以吗？” 邓恩先生说：“对于蠕虫来说，汽水瓶是一个非常小的家。” “让我们把虫子留在树林里吧。” 伊森点了点头。邓恩先生总是有很好的答案。 孩子们已经准备好制作他们的水族馆了。
