Spud!

Spud!

快跑！

Ethan hurried into the gym. “ Guess what! ” Bobby said. “ We’re going outside today. ” “ It’s sunny and warm, ” Izzie said. “ That stinks, ” Ethan mumbled. “ Huh?” Jason said. Everybody was surprised. Ethan was from California, and he loved warm weather.

伊森匆匆走进健身房。 “猜猜看！”鲍比说。“我们今天要出去。” “天气晴朗温暖，”伊兹说。 “太臭了，”伊森喃喃地说。 “啊？”杰森说。每个人都是惊讶伊森来自加利福尼亚，他喜欢温暖的天气。

Ethan sighed. “ I’m still saving up to buy a snowboard. But all the snow has melted. ” “ Winter’s not over yet, ” Izzie said. “ Maybe it will snow again. ” “ Time to go outside, ” Miss Shelly called. The kids followed the teacher out to the blacktop. She was holding a soft ball. “ What are we playing?” Jason asked.

伊森叹了口气。“我还在攒钱买滑雪板。但所有的雪都融化了。” “冬天还没有结束，”伊兹说。“也许吧又会下雪了。” “该出去了，”雪莉小姐喊道。 孩子们跟着老师到了黑顶。她拿着一个软球。 “我们在玩什么？”杰森问。

“ Spud, ” Miss Shelly said. “ What’s that?” Nina asked. “ It’s a fun game, ” Bobby said. “ First, everyone needs a number, ” Miss Shelly said. “ Let’s count off. ” “ One! ” “ Two! ” “ Three! ”

“嘘，”雪莉小姐说。 “那是什么？”妮娜问。 “这是一场有趣的比赛，”鲍比说。 “首先，每个人都需要一个号码，”小姐雪莉说。“让我们倒数吧。” “一个！”“两个！”“三个！”

“ Four! ” “ Five! ” Miss Shelly gave the ball to Ethan. “ You’ll throw the ball up in the air. As you do that, call out someone’s number. ” She looked at the others. “ If you hear your number, run to catch the ball. Catch it and yell ‘spud. ‘”

“四个!”“五个!” 雪莉小姐把球给了伊森。 “你会把球抛向空中。当你这样做时，喊出某人的号码。” 她看着其他人。 “如果你听到你的号码，就跑去接球。接球并大喊‘土豆’。”

“ What does everyone else do?” Izzie asked. “ You have to freeze when you hear ‘spud, ’” Bobby said. Izzie nodded. “ Let’s play! ” Everyone started running around Ethan. He threw the ball into the air. “ Five! ” “ That’s me! ” Jason cried. He caught the ball and yelled, “ Spud. ” Everyone froze.

“其他人都做什么？”伊兹问道。 鲍比说：“当你听到‘土豆’的时候，你必须停下来。” 伊兹点点头。“我们玩吧！” 每个人都开始围着伊森跑。他把球抛向空中。“五个！” “那是我！”杰森喊道。他接住球，喊道：“快跑。”所有人都愣住了。
