16. Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Beehive

CHAPTER 16 WHO'S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD BEEHIVE? The struggle that followed may someday be remembered as the single most unlucky thing that ever happened in the history of the world. First, George pulled his arm out of Wedgie Woman's grasp. Then Harold squirmed away, too. When Wedgie Woman lunged after them, George crouched down into a ball behind Wedgie Woman's feet. All it took was a simple nudge from Harold to send the ferocious female toppling over backward...

第十六章谁害怕大坏蜂巢？ 接下来的斗争也许有一天会作为世界历史上发生的最不幸的事情而被铭记。 首先，乔治把他的胳膊从“维吉女人”的手里抽出来。 接着，哈罗德也扭动着身子走开了。 当“女汉子”向他们扑过来时，乔治蹲在“女汉子”的脚后，缩成一团。 哈罗德轻轻推了一下，这只凶猛的雌性就倒在了后面……

...right into the wall. KLUNK! The bookshelf above Wedgie Woman's head shook violently, causing a strange-looking juice carton to topple over: Suddenly, a stream of glowing green juice poured out of the carton, directly into the tightly woven beehive of hair atop Wedgie Woman's head.

…直接撞到墙上。KLUNK !女人头顶的书架剧烈摇晃，把一个奇怪的果汁盒打翻了。突然，一股发光的绿色果汁从盒子里倒了出来，直接流进了女人头顶上紧紧编织的蜂窝状头发里。

"NOOO!" yelled Harold as he grabbed the juice carton. "This is the juice we got from that spaceship back in our third book!" "You mean the one with the annoyingly long title?" asked George. "Yeah!" said Harold. "This is Extra- Strength Super Power Juice! And a whole bunch of it got in her hair!" "Don't worry," said George. "None of it got in her mouth. What's the worst thing that could happen? Her hairstyle would have super powers?" "Well," said Harold, "I guess you're right. That is pretty stupid... even for one of our stories!" "It's pretty funny, though," said George.

“不！”哈罗德嚷道，抓起果汁盒。 “这是我们在第三本书中从宇宙飞船上得到的果汁！”“你是说那本标题长得令人讨厌的书吗？”乔治问。 “是啊！”哈罗德说。“这是强力超能力果汁！”结果一大堆都钻进了她的头发里！”“别担心，”乔治说。 “这些东西都没进她嘴里。 能发生的最坏的事情是什么？ 她的发型会有超能力吗？”“嗯，”哈罗德说，“我想你是对的。 这太愚蠢了……哪怕是为了我们的一个故事！”“不过这很有趣。”乔治说。

Suddenly, two coiled arms of twisting hair shot out of Wedgie Woman's head and grabbed George and Harold by the back of their underwear, yanking them high into the air. "You know," said George, "this isn't as funny as I thought it would be."

突然，两只卷成一团的头发从“小鸡鸡女人”的脑袋里伸出来，抓住乔治和哈罗德的内裤，把他们高高抛向空中。 “你知道，”乔治说，“这并不像我想象的那么有趣。”
