1 Franny’s House

CHAPTER ONE FRANNY'S HOUSE The Stein family lived in the pretty pink house with lovely purple shutters down at the end of Daffodil Street. Everything about the house was bright and cheery. Everything, that is, except the upstairs bedroom with the tiny round window.

第一章弗兰妮的房子斯坦一家住在水仙花街尽头那幢漂亮的粉红色房子里，房子里有可爱的紫色百叶窗。 房子里的一切都是明亮而愉快的。 除了楼上那间带着小圆窗的卧室以外，什么都有。

Behind this window was Franny's room, which was also her laboratory. Even for a mad scientist, Franny's lab was unusual. Her experiments and inventions were far beyond those of your average, everyday mad scientist. In fact Franny's work was so complicated that she found she could not do it alone. She had a lab assistant named Igor.

这扇窗户后面是弗兰妮的房间，也是她的实验室。 即使对一个疯狂的科学家来说，弗兰尼的实验室也很不寻常。 她的实验和发明远远超出了普通的、日常的疯狂科学家。 事实上，弗兰尼的工作太复杂了，她发现自己无法独自完成。 她有个实验室助理叫伊戈尔。

Well, he wasn't a pure lab. He was also part poodle, part Chihuahua, part beagle, part spaniel, part shepherd, and possibly part some kind of weasly thing that probably wasn't even a dog.

好吧，他不是一个纯粹的实验室。 他也有狮子狗、吉娃娃、小猎犬、西班牙猎犬、牧羊犬的血统，可能还有某种狡猾的东西的血统，甚至可能不是狗。

Franny had been through a lot with Igor, and he had learned a great deal about mad science working with Franny in her laboratory. But Igor was still awfully young and Franny was still nervous about letting him work on any of the more dangerous projects.

弗兰尼和伊戈尔一起经历了很多，他在实验室里和弗兰尼一起工作，学到了很多关于疯狂科学的知识。 但伊戈尔还非常年轻，弗兰妮对让他从事任何更危险的项目仍然感到紧张。
