23. Dream a Little Dream of Us

CHAPTER 23 DREAM A LITTLE DREAM OF US "Hey, that comic turned out pretty good," said Harold. "Yeah, not too shabby!" said George. "Let's go to school and make copies of it." "But what if somebody sees us?" said Harold. "Don't worry," said George. "I've got it all figured out!"

第二十三章做一个关于我们的小梦“嘿，那部喜剧挺不错的。”哈罗德说。 “是啊，不太寒酸！”乔治说。 “我们去学校复印一下吧。” “要是有人看见我们怎么办？”哈罗德说。 “别担心，”乔治说。 “我都想明白了！”

So George and Harold headed to school and sneaked into the office. In no time at all, they were running off copies of their new comic book and stapling them together. Things were going very well until the school secretary, Miss Anthrope, came back from her lunch break. "What are you kids doing in my office? II?" Miss Anthrope yelled. "We're not in your office," said George with a mischievous smile. "You're dreaming!" "Dreaming?" said Miss Anthrope. "Yeah! And I can prove it," said George. "Just call our teacher, Ms. Ribble, on the intercom. She'll tell you that we're both in class right now." "In class?" said Miss Anthrope. "Yep," said George. "Obviously, we can't be in two places at the same time, so this HAS to be a dream, right?"

于是乔治和哈罗德去了学校，偷偷溜进了办公室。 很快，他们就把他们的新漫画书印出来，装订在一起了。 一切都进行得很顺利，直到学校秘书Anthrope小姐吃完午饭回来。 “你们这些孩子在我的办公室干什么？” II ?”Anthrope小姐喊道。 “我们不在你的办公室。”乔治调皮地笑着说。 “你做梦!”“做梦？”Anthrope小姐说。 “是啊!我可以证明这一点。”乔治说。 “给我们的老师打电话吧。 里布尔，对讲机里。她会告诉你我们现在都在上课。” “在课堂上？”Anthrope小姐说。 “是的。”乔治说。“显然，我们不能同时出现在两个地方，所以这一定是个梦，对吧？”

Miss Anthrope was suspicious. She grabbed the microphone on the intercom and contacted Ms. Ribble's room. "Ms. Ribble?" she said, "Where are George and Harold right now?" "Why, they're right here in my classroom," Ms. Ribble replied through the speaker, "Oh, REALLY?" said Miss Anthrope. "Of course," said Ms. Ribble. "They've been here all day." Miss Anthrope was stumped. Then she got a sneaky idea. "Alright," she said. "If they're really in your classroom, then send them both to the office right now!" "OK," said Ms. Ribble. Miss Anthrope turned and looked at George and Harold with a yellowish, snarly grin. "I don't know what kind of trick you kids are trying to pull," she said, "but you can't fool me!"

Anthrope小姐起了疑心。 她抓起对讲机上的麦克风，联系上了她。 博尔的房间。“里布尔女士？”她说，“乔治和哈罗德现在在哪儿？”“为什么，他们就在我的教室里。” 里布尔通过扬声器回答道：“哦，真的吗？” “当然，”里布尔说。 “他们一整天都在这儿。” Anthrope小姐被难住了。 然后她有了一个鬼点子。 “好吧，”她说。“如果他们真的在你的教室里，那么现在就把他们两个都送到办公室去！”“好的。” 博尔。阿佩普小姐转过身来，带着一副略带黄色、尖酸刻薄的笑容看着乔治和哈罗德。 “我不知道你们这些孩子想玩什么把戏，”她说，“但你们骗不了我的！”

Suddenly, Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold walked into the office. Miss Anthrope looked at them and screamed. Then she looked at George and Harold and screamed again. Her head made a swishing sound as it swiveled back and forth between George and Harold, and Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold. "See?" said George. "I told you this was a dream." "You're—you're RIGHT!" cried Miss Anthrope. "It all seems so vivid! But I MUST be dreaming!"

突然，昨天乔治和昨天哈罗德走进办公室。 Anthrope小姐看着他们尖叫起来。 然后她看着乔治和哈罗德，又尖叫起来。 她的头在乔治和哈罗德之间、昨天的乔治和昨天的哈罗德之间来回旋转，发出嗖嗖的声音。 “看到了吗？”乔治说。“我告诉过你这是个梦。” “你——你说得对！” “一切似乎都那么生动！”但我一定是在做梦！”

"Of course you are," said George. "And why should you waste a perfectly good dream hanging around the office?" "That's a good point!" said Miss Anthrope. "And why bother wearing such tight, restricting clothes? After all, it's MY DREAM! I can do whatever I want!" "Now, wait a minute," said Harold.

“你当然是。”乔治说。 “你为什么要浪费一个完美的梦在办公室里闲逛呢？”“说得好！”Anthrope小姐说。 “为什么要穿这么紧身的衣服呢？” 毕竟，这是我的梦想！我想做什么就做什么！”“好了，等一下。”哈罗德说。

But it was too late. Miss Anthrope hoisted her dress over her head, ripped it off, and threw it out the window. "Wheeeeee!" she yelled. "Dreaming is FUN!" Then she ran away laughing her head off and slammed the office door behind her. "What are you guys doing here?!?" said Yesterday George sternly. "This is OUR day to be at school!" "We ran out of food, and we needed to buy some supplies," said George. "So we made a new comic to sell on the playground."

但为时已晚。Anthrope小姐把她的衣服举过头顶，扯了下来，扔出了窗外。 “嘘——”她叫道。“梦想很有趣！”然后她大笑着跑开了，砰地一声关上了办公室的门。 昨天乔治严厉地说：“你们在这儿干什么？！？” “今天是我们上学的日子！”“我们的食物用光了，我们需要买一些补给品，”乔治说。 “所以我们做了一个新的漫画在操场上卖。”
