5. The Wrath of Ms. Ribble

CHAPTER 5 THE WRATH OF MS. RIBBLE When Ms. Ribble read the comic book that George and Harold had made, she was furious. "Boys!" she yelled. "You've just earned yourselves a one-way ticket to the principal's office!" "But all we did was use our imaginations!" said George. "You're not allowed to do that in this school!" snapped Ms. Ribble. "Didn't you read chapter I?"

第五章罗尔斯夫人的愤怒。 当读到乔治和哈罗德创作的漫画书时，她非常愤怒。 “孩子们！”“你们刚刚为自己赢得了一张去校长办公室的单程票！”“但我们所做的只是发挥了我们的想象力！”乔治说。 “你在这所学校是不允许这样做的！” 博尔。“你没读第一章吗？”

George and Harold gathered their things, and soon they were sitting in the office outside Mr. Krupp's door. "Mr. Krupp is on the phone," said the school secretary, Miss Anthrope. "Why don't you boys make yourselves useful and copy the 'Friday Memo' for me! You can pass them out to all the classrooms for me while I go to lunch." "Aww, maaaan!" said George. "Quit your whining, buster!" shouted Miss Anthrope- "I want this done by the time I get back, or you'll both be sorry!" Miss Anthrope grabbed her coat and stomped out the door.

乔治和哈罗德收拾好东西，很快就坐在克虏伯先生门外的办公室里。 “克虏伯先生打电话来了，”学校的秘书Anthrope小姐说。 “为什么你们不帮我把‘星期五备忘录’抄下来呢？”我去吃午饭的时候，你可以帮我把它们分发给所有的教室。” “啊，妈！”乔治说。 “别再抱怨了，小鬼！”Anthrope小姐喊道，“我回来之前要把这事做完，否则你们俩都会后悔的！”Anthrope小姐抓起外套，跺着脚走出了门。

George and Harold looked at the "Friday Memo." It was a weekly newsletter that told all about the events of the upcoming week. "Hey," said George. "Miss Anthrope's computer is still on. Y'wanna make a few changes to this newsletter?" "Why not?" said Harold.

乔治和哈罗德看了看“星期五备忘录”。 那是一份每周时事通讯，告诉大家下一周发生的事情。 “嘿，”乔治说。“Anthrope小姐的电脑还开着。 你想对这份简报做些修改吗？”“为什么？”哈罗德说。

So George and Harold typed up their own version of the Jerome Horwitz Elementary School "Friday Memo." Then they ran off copies for all the students in the school.

于是，乔治和哈罗德打印了他们自己版本的杰罗姆·霍维茨小学的“周五备忘录”。 然后他们给全校学生复印了一份。
