喷嚏怪

one. ACHOO! Large pale green clouds floated over the city. Nobody had ever seen anything like them. Those clouds have come from Mars, said the Royal Astronomer. Those clouds have been made by our enemies and sent to invade us, said the General in charge of the army.

一、阿嚏！大团大团的淡绿色云飘在城市上空，大家从来没见过这样的 东西。皇家天文学家说：“这些云是从火星来的。”陆军总司令说：“这些云是 我们的敌人造出来，派来入侵我们的。

Those clouds are full of green paint and when it pours it will turn all my nice white washing green, said the Royal Washman. In other words, nobody knew what the clouds were.

皇家洗衣工说：“这些云里全是绿颜料，一下雨我洗得干干净净的白衣服就会全被 染成绿色。 说白了，没人知道这些云到底是什么来头。

They soon found out because the clouds began to snow big puffy green balls!

大家很快就知道了，因为云开始往下掉又大又蓬松的绿色圆球啦！

Everyone stared at the sky and watched as the pale green puffballs floated down faster and faster. As they landed, they exploded with a little piff. Out came a fine green powdery dust that drifted away.

所有人都盯着天空，看那些淡绿色的蓬松圆球飘得越来越快。 它们一落地，就“噗”的一声轻轻炸开。 里面飘出细细的绿色粉末，四下散开。

A bird sneezed. Gaaaaaachoooo! It was a huge sneeze. It was so powerful that the bird shot backwards straight into a hole in a tree where it stuck. Everywhere birds began to sneeze. If they were flying, they went rocketing backwards at high speed. Whoosh! If they were sitting on a branch, they spun round and round until at last they fell off. Clump!

一只小鸟打了个喷嚏。 嘎——阿嚏！ 这个喷嚏打得可太猛了。 力道大到小鸟直接往后飞，一头扎进树洞里卡得死死的。 到处的小鸟都开始打喷嚏了。 飞着的鸟会高速往后冲。 嗖！ 站在树枝上的鸟会转好多圈，最后直接掉下来。 咚！
