11. Brown Baggin'It

CHAPTER 11 BROWN BAGGIN' IT The next day, George and Harold each brought their own sandwiches to Mr. Krupp's office for lunch. "I'll trade you half of my peanut-butter- and-gummy-worm sandwich," said George, "for half of your tuna-salad-with-chocolate- chips-and-miniature-marshmallows sandwich." "Sure," said Harold. "Y'want some barbecue sauce on that?" "You kids are DISGUSTING!" Mr. Krupp shouted.

第二天，乔治和哈罗德各自带着三明治到克虏伯先生的办公室吃午饭。 “我愿意用我一半的花生酱和软糖虫三明治，”乔治说，“和你一半的金枪鱼沙拉、巧克力片和小棉花糖三明治交换。” “当然。”哈罗德说。“你要加点烧烤酱吗？”“你们这些孩子真恶心！”克虏伯先生喊道。

Soon George and Harold were munching on potato chips with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles. Mr. Krupp was turning green. "What's for dessert?" asked Harold. "Hard-boiled eggs dipped in hot fudge and Skittles!" said George. "AAAUGH!" screamed Mr. Krupp. "I can't stand it anymore!" He got up and stumbled out the door for some fresh air. "You know," said George, "now that Mr. Krupp is gone, we could run to the cafeteria and change the letters around on the lunch sign." "Cool," said Harold.

不久，乔治和哈罗德就开始大嚼拌有鲜奶油和巧克力屑的薯片。 克虏伯先生脸色发青。 “甜点是什么？”哈罗德问。 “煮熟的鸡蛋蘸着热软糖和彩虹糖！”乔治说。 “哈哈！”克虏伯先生尖叫起来。 “我再也受不了了！”他站起身来，跌跌撞撞地走出门去呼吸新鲜空气。 “你知道吗，”乔治说，“既然克虏伯先生走了，我们可以跑到自助餐厅把午餐招牌上的字母改一下。” “酷。”哈罗德说。

So George and Harold sneaked to the cafeteria. But when they read the lunch sign, they were a bit confused. "What's going on here?" said George. "It looks like somebody's already changed the sign," said Harold. "Forget the sign," said George. "Look at everybody! They've changed!"

于是乔治和哈罗德偷偷溜到自助餐厅。 但当他们看到午餐的牌子时，他们有点困惑。 “这是怎么回事？”乔治问。 “看来已经有人把标志换了。”哈罗德说。 “别管那个牌子了。”乔治说。 “看看大家！”他们已经改变!”

It was true. All the kids and teachers in school were entering the cafeteria looking as normal as ever. But they were leaving the cafeteria looking quite different. "Look!" cried George. "They're all wearing broken eyeglasses held together with masking tape... and they've all got vinyl pocket protectors!!! They've all turned into—" "Nerds!" Harold gasped.

这是真的。学校里所有的孩子和老师都像往常一样走进自助餐厅。 但是他们离开自助餐厅的时候看起来完全不一样了。 “看！”乔治叫道。“他们都戴着用胶带粘在一起的破眼镜…… 他们都有乙烯基口袋保护器！！他们都变成了——”“书呆子！”哈罗德气喘吁吁地说。

"And look at their skin," said George. "They're all gray and clammy. That could only mean one thing!" "They're— they're ZOMBIE nerds?!!?" asked Harold. "I'm afraid so," said George. "Let's just hope they're friendly!" said Harold. "Whoever heard of a friendly zombie nerd?" asked George.

“看看他们的皮肤，”乔治说。 “它们又灰又湿。 这只能说明一件事！”“他们——他们是僵尸迷？！！？”哈罗德问。 “恐怕是这样，”乔治说。 “但愿他们是友好的！”哈罗德说。 “谁听说过一个友好的僵尸呆子？”乔治问。

"I'm afraid," Harold whined. "There's no time to be afraid," said George. "We've got to get to the bottom of this!" "That's what I'm afraid of," said Harold.

“我害怕。”哈罗德抱怨道。 “没时间害怕了。”乔治说。 “我们一定要查个水落石出！”“这正是我担心的。”哈罗德说。
