8 See, I Told You Nothing Could Go Wrong

CHAPTER EIGHT SEE, I TOLD YOU NOTHING COULD GO WRONG Two weeks later, Franny was feeling a lot more relaxed. The Franbots had been performing brilliantly, and the soccer coach, cooking instructor, and bagpipe teacher hadn't noticed that they were machines.

瞧，我告诉过你不会出错的。两个星期后，弗兰尼感到轻松多了。 弗兰伯特一家一直表现出色，足球教练、烹饪教练和风笛老师都没有注意到他们是机器。

In fact, they did so well at the extra activities that Franny had even started letting them take her place at school. Nobody at school could tell they were robots either, and they were getting grades almost as good as the ones Franny usually got. Franny now had more time for her new projects, like teaching a monkey to use a monkey wrench, a hammerhead

事实上，他们在课外活动中表现得非常好，弗兰尼甚至开始让他们代替她在学校的位置。 学校里也没有人能看出他们是机器人，他们的成绩几乎和弗兰妮平时的成绩一样好。 弗兰尼现在有更多的时间做她的新项目，比如教猴子使用扳手，锤头锤头锤

shark to use a hammer, and a mouse to use a mouse. Igor was delighted to have Franny home every day. The Franbots seemed to be genuinely enjoying their tasks. Sure, they might have been taking them a bit too seriously, but that's what Franny had told them. She said that nothing was more important than excellence, and they were following her instructions.

鲨鱼用锤子，老鼠用老鼠。 伊戈尔很高兴弗兰尼每天都回家。 弗兰克兄弟似乎真的很享受他们的任务。 当然，他们可能有点太认真了，但这就是弗兰妮告诉他们的。 她说，没有什么比优秀更重要，他们都按照她的指示去做。

It was perfect, Franny thought. Except Franny noticed that it might not have been perfect for her mom.

这太完美了，弗兰妮想。 但弗兰妮注意到，这对她妈妈来说可能并不完美。

The Franbots moved much more quickly than Franny, and her mom often had to run to keep up. The Franbots were so determined to achieve excellence that they often stayed longer at soccer practice or cooking class, and they were begging for extra-credit projects at school. And Mom was staying up late at night to help them complete it all.

弗兰博特一家的行动速度比弗兰妮快得多，她妈妈常常不得不跑着跟上。 弗朗伯特一家决心要取得优异成绩，他们经常在足球训练或烹饪课上待更长的时间，他们还在学校乞求额外的学分项目。 妈妈晚上熬夜帮他们完成所有的工作。

Mom was running herself ragged trying to get the Franbots to their activities and helping them keep up with all the extra work.

妈妈为了让弗兰特家的孩子们参加活动，还要帮他们完成所有额外的工作，把自己累得筋疲力尽。
