The Fight

战斗

Back at Dot’s, Panther and Jane were not speaking to each other. “ This is a very pretty dress, ” said Dot, the owner of the shop. “ Thank you . It’s exactly what I wanted, ” Panther replied, but she was glaring at Jane. “ I think it makes you look fat, ” Janesaid in a mean voice.

回到多特家，黑豹和简没有说话。 ”这是一件非常漂亮的衣服，”店主多特说。 ”非常感谢。这正是我想要的，”黑豹回答说， 但她怒视着简。 ”我觉得这会让你看起来很胖，”简尼斯用刻薄的声音说道。

“ You girls should be nice to each other. Aren’t you sisters?” Dot asked. But neither Panther nor Jane replied. Meanwhile at the game store, Cy was ready to pay for his purchases. ” Your total comes to one thousand fifty-six dollars and seventy-one cents, ”

“你们两个女孩应该彼此友好。 你们不是姐妹吗？”多特问。 但黑豹和简都没有回答。 与此同时，在游戏商店，赛伊准备支付购买的费用。 “你的总数是一千零五十六美元零七十一美分。”

the clerk said wearily. Cy paused. “ Uh, how much is that in gold coins?” he asked. ” Excuse me? Did you say gold coins?” asked the clerk. ” Yes . That’s what I have here . ” Cy pointed to his bag. ” Half of it’s mine, ” Bobby said angrily.

店员疲惫地说。 赛伊停顿了一下。 “这是多少金币”他问。 “打扰一下你是说金币吗？”店员问。 “对这就是我在这里的东西。”赛伊指着他的包。 “一半是我的，”鲍比生气地说。

” I’m sorry, ” the clerk said, “ but we only accept cash, credit card, or check. ” “ But these are worth a lot of money, ” Cy pleaded as he held out a coin. “ It looks like play money, ” the clerk said, taking the gold coin from him. “ They’re real, I tell you, ” argued Cy, but the clerk did not believe him.

“对不起，”店员说，“但我们只接受现金、信用卡或支票。” ”但这些都值很多钱，“赛伊一边恳求一边拿出一枚硬币。 ”看起来像是游戏币，”店员从他手中接过金币说道。 ”他们是真的，我告诉你，”赛伊争辩道，但店员不相信他。

Jane felt like crying. ” It’s not fair, ” she thought to herself. ” Why does Panther get to do whatever she wants? I have money too. ” “ That’ll be twenty-one dollars and sixty cents, ” smiled Dot. “ Fine, ” Panther replied . She began counting out some gold coins.

简想哭。 “这不公平，”她心里想。 ”为什么黑豹可以为所欲为？ 我也有钱。” ”那将是二十一美元六十美分，”多特笑着说。 ”好吧，”黑豹回答。 她开始数一些金币。
