18. Robo-George and the Harold 2000

CHAPTER 18 ROBO-GEORGE AND THE HAROLD 2000 "Uh, attention boys and girls," said Mr. Krupp to the fourth graders. "Your teacher, Ms. Ribble, didn't come to school today." "Hooray!" shouted the children. "Settle down!" Mr. Krupp shouted. "You're still going to have all your classes!" "Aww, maaaan!" moaned the children. "But you're going to have a substitute teacher," said Mr. Krupp. "Hooray!" shouted the children. "And it's going to be me!" said Mr. Krupp. "Aww, maaaan!" moaned the children.

“哦，孩子们，请注意，”克虏伯先生对四年级学生们说。 “你的老师里布尔女士今天没来上学。” “万岁！”孩子们喊道。 “安定下来!”克虏伯先生喊道。 “你还是要上所有的课！”“啊，妈妈！”孩子们呻吟着。 “但是你会有一个代课老师，”克虏伯先生说。 “万岁！”孩子们喊道。 “那将是我！”克虏伯先生说。 “啊，妈妈！”孩子们呻吟着。

The whole day was pretty much like a normal day, except for one thing: Mr. Krupp couldn't understand why George and Harold were so well behaved. They didn't make funny noises during science class, they didn't stick crayons up their noses during art class, and they didn't draw comic books during math class. In fact, they even walked past a sign without changing the letters around. Mr. Krupp was stunned. "Alright, you two!" Mr. Krupp shouted. "I know you're up to something... You better stop being so good, or you're gonna be in BIG TROUBLE!"

这一整天和平常没什么两样，除了一件事：克虏伯先生不明白为什么乔治和哈罗德表现得这么好。 他们在科学课上没有发出有趣的声音，他们在美术课上没有把蜡笔粘在鼻子上，他们在数学课上没有画漫画书。 事实上，他们甚至没有改变周围的字母就走过了一个标志。 克虏伯惊呆了。“好吧，你们两个！”克虏伯先生喊道。 “我知道你在密谋什么…… 你最好别再这么乖了，否则你会有大麻烦的！”

But Robo-George and the Harold 2000 kept right on behaving. The only time they did something even remotely wrong was during recess. Everybody was playing kickball, and when it was the Harold 2000's turn to kick the ball, he kicked it pretty darn hard. KA-BOINGGG!

但是robogeorge和Harold 2000保持着正确的行为。 他们唯一做错事的时候是在课间休息的时候。 每个人都在踢足球，当轮到哈罗德2000踢球时，他踢得相当用力。 KA-BOINGGG !

The kickball tore right through the top of page 101 and out the other side as it sailed toward the outer regions of Earth's atmosphere. Soon it broke free of our planet's gravitational pull and began heading straight toward the planet Uranus. "A-HAI" shouted Mr. Krupp, as he pulled out the official school rulebook and read Rule #411 out loud: "It is against the rules to kick school property into outer space! You're in trouble now, bub!"

当球飞向地球大气层的外层时，它直接穿过了第101页的顶部，从另一边飞了出去。 不久，它就摆脱了地球的引力，开始直奔天王星而去。 “哎呀！”克虏伯喊道，一边拿出学校的官方规章，大声读出第411条规定：“把学校的财产踢到外太空是违反规定的！你现在有麻烦了，小家伙！”

But the Harold 2000 ignored Mr. Krupp and began running around the bases. "Hey! I'm talking to you, Hutchins!" Mr. Krupp shouted. He pointed at the Harold 2000 and snapped his fingers. SNAP!

但哈罗德2000没有理会克虏伯，而是开始四处奔波。 “嘿!我在跟你说话呢，哈钦斯！”克虏伯先生喊道。 他指着哈罗德2000打了个响指。 中计了!

Suddenly, Mr. Krupp began to change. A silly-looking smile stretched across his face, and he stood before the fourth graders looking quite heroic. Quickly, he turned and ran back into the school.

突然间，克虏伯开始变了。 他脸上露出了傻笑，站在四年级学生面前，显得很英勇。 他迅速转身跑回学校。
