09-REVOLTING, THAT'S WHAT SHE IS!

REVOLTING, THAT'S WHAT SHE Is! We dropped into the castle's courtyard. All of a sudden, we heard a doorbell ring. "IAMONMYWAYMASTER!" shouted a voice with a funny accent. It was the rodent we had seen driving that strange car, "PHEWIAMCOMINCIAMCOMINGWHAT'S THEHURRY?" he whined. He hopped down the stairs, four steps at a time. He was round and stocky. His head was sunk between his shoulders, as if he had no neck. His eyes BULGED out of his face. One of his ears was torn and looked as if a cat had left teeth marks in it. With one single leap, the hunchback grabbed the key to the front door and turned it in the lock.

令人厌恶，这就是她!我们进入城堡的庭院。 突然，我们听到门铃响了。 “我是我的waymaster !”一个带着滑稽口音的声音喊道。 就是我们刚才看到的那只开着那辆怪车的啮齿动物。“phewiamcominciam来了，急什么?” 他跳下楼梯，一步走四级。 他又圆又壮。他的头耷拉在两肩之间，好像没有脖子似的。 他的眼睛从脸上突出来。 他的一只耳朵被撕破了，看起来就像一只猫在上面留下了牙印。 驼背一跃而起，抓起前门的钥匙，把它插进锁里。

"WELCOME BACKTOTHECASTLE MASTER!" he mumbled, bowing low, The front door opened wide, and in came an even weirder rodent. It must have been Count von Ratoff. He was tall and lean, with a pointy snout, and he was wearing a floor-length red silk

“欢迎回到城堡，主人!”他低声说，深深地鞠了一躬。前门开得很大，进来了一只更奇怪的啮齿动物。 一定是冯·拉托夫伯爵。 他又高又瘦，尖鼻子，穿着一件及地的红色丝绸长袍

cape. His eyes had a sad look and his whiskers drooped, as if he hadn't laughed in centuries. This mouse needs a night out at a good comedy club, I said to myself. Stand Up and Squeak! always cheered me up.

斗篷。他的眼睛流露出悲伤的神情，胡须下垂，好像好几个世纪没笑过了。 我对自己说，这只老鼠需要去一个好的喜剧俱乐部过一晚。 站起来吱吱叫!总是让我振作起来。

Behind him came a little blonde mouse who was also wearing a red Silk cape. "I hope you remembered to run my hot bath!" she squeaked, staring down her snout at the hunchback. "HOTBATH? WHAT "HOTBATH? he answered. He seemed to be trying not to giggle. "It figures!" she cried. "No one listens to a word I say around here! It's revolting! I don't even have a personal maid! Whoever heard of a countess without a personal maid?!" She swept up the main staircase in a huff. Her silk cape fluttered behind her. Thea stuck her snout in the air just like the little blonde mouse. "Revolting," she whispered. "That's what she is!"

在他的后面出现了一只同样穿着红色丝绸斗篷的金发小老鼠。 “我希望你记得给我放热水!”她尖声说，眼睛盯着那个驼背。 “HOTBATH ?什么“HOTBATH ?他回答说。 他似乎在努力不让自己笑出声来。 “有道理!”她叫道。“这里没人听我说一个字!”这是令人作呕!我连私人女佣都没有!谁听说过伯爵夫人没有私人侍女?!”她气呼呼地上了主楼梯。 她的丝绸披肩在身后飘动。 西娅把鼻子伸到空中，就像那只金发小老鼠一样。 “令人作呕。”她低声说。 “她就是这样!”
