3 Puffin Ward

Chapter 3 Puffin Ward A nurse will be with you soon.

第三章海雀病房护士很快就会来。

When Billy and his parents reached the ward, Billy was shown to a little bed with a curtain. Billy saw the ward was full of other children, too.

当比利和他的父母到达病房时，比利被领到一张带窗帘的小床前。 比利看到病房里也挤满了其他的孩子。

While they waited, Billy's dad started telling terrible jokes. "What do you call a fish with no eyes?" I don't know, Dad. A fsh. Then they discovered that Billy's bed could move in all sorts of directions. This is comfy. Whoah!

在他们等待的时候，比利的爸爸开始讲可怕的笑话。 “没有眼睛的鱼叫什么？”我不知道，爸爸。 fsh。然后他们发现比利的床可以朝各个方向移动。 这很舒服。哇!

Yee-hah! Uh oh. Billy had almost forgotten why they were there when the nurse came. "Hello," he said. "My name's Sam, and I'll be looking after you today. I've got a special gown for you to put on. You'll be here for about an hour and then we'll take you in for your operation.

Yee-hah !哦哦。当护士来的时候，比利几乎忘了他们为什么在那里。 “你好，”他说。“我叫萨姆，今天由我来照顾你。 我给你准备了一件特别的礼服。 你要在这里待一个小时左右，然后我们就带你去做手术。

"And here's a form," said Sam, "so you can choose what you'd like to eat when the operation is over." When Billy had finished with the form, Sam came back with some cream. "I'll rub it on your hand, so when you have your going-to-sleep injection, you won't feel anything."

“这是一张表格，”萨姆说，“这样你就可以在手术结束后选择你想吃的东西。” 比利填完表格后，山姆拿着一些奶油回来了。 “我会把它擦在你手上，这样你注射安眠药时就不会有任何感觉了。”

"I'll be back in an hour," said Sam, smiling. "Why don't you go and look at the toys?" suggested Billy's mum. Billy went over and found another girl looking at the toys. "My name's Ella," she said. "I'm having my tonsils out today." Me too. I'm not scared, though. Oh. I'm feeling a bit nervous.

“我一个小时后回来，”萨姆笑着说。 “你为什么不去看看玩具呢？”比利的妈妈建议道。 比利走过去，发现另一个女孩在看玩具。 “我叫艾拉，”她说。 “我今天要切除扁桃体。” 我也是。不过，我并不害怕。 哦。我感到有点紧张。
