10 CRASH COURSE

CHAPTER 10 CRASH COURSE Sorry, Dr. Tallow!" said Alexander. "Are you all right?" Dr. Tallow's glasses were off-kilter. "Help me up, dearie!" Alexander helped steady his teacher as she got to her feet. Her hand felt dry. "Now, why on Earth were you running so fast?" she asked.

第十章速成班对不起，博士。 牛脂！”亚历山大说。“你没事吧？”博士。 塔洛的眼镜不太准。 “扶我起来，亲爱的！”当老师站起来时，亚历山大扶稳了她。 她觉得手很干。“现在，你到底为什么跑得那么快？”她问。

Alexander gulped. Then he spoke, quietly. "Um, er... did you see a..." he began. Dr. Tallow straightened her glasses, and peered over them at Alexander. "A what, dearie?" she asked. "Um..." Alexander swallowed. "A snowman?" Dr. Tallow laughed. But then she noticed Alexander was not laughing. "No," she said. "No snowmen up here—just me." Alexander gave her a weak smile. "You seem jumpy today," Dr. Tallow said. "And yesterday, too, come to think of it." She rubbed lotion on her hands.

亚历山大一饮而尽。然后他轻轻地说话了。 “嗯,嗯…你有没有看到一个……” 他开始。塔洛医生正了正眼镜，从眼镜上方望着亚历山大。 “什么，亲爱的？”她问。 “嗯……”亚历山大吞下。 “一个雪人?”塔洛医生笑了。 但她注意到亚历山大没有笑。 “不，”她说。“这里没有雪人——只有我。” 亚历山大对她微微一笑。 “你今天看起来精神紧张。” 脂说。“我想起来了，昨天也是。” 她在手上擦乳液。

"Oh, I'm fine," Alexander said. "I know it can be hard to ask for help," said Dr. Tallow. "But please know that I'm here if you need me." She squatted down to look in Alexander's eyes. "Actually, I was hoping to ask you for help." "Me?" said Alexander. "Yes," Dr. Tallow said. "I'm afraid your friend Nikki doesn't like me. Could you try talking to her?" "I guess so," said Alexander. BRINNGG! Dr. Tallow smiled. "It looks like we're both late again," she said. "Come on, let's get to class."

“哦，我很好，”亚历山大说。 “我知道寻求帮助可能很难。” 脂。“但请知道，如果你需要我，我会在这里。” 她蹲下来看着亚历山大的眼睛。 “其实，我是想请你帮忙的。” “我？”亚历山大说。“是的,”Dr。 脂说。“恐怕你的朋友尼基不喜欢我。 你能试着和她谈谈吗？”“我想是的，”亚历山大说。 BRINNGG !塔洛医生笑了。 “看来我们俩又迟到了，”她说。 “来吧，我们去上课吧。”
