10 TOTALLY FLOORED

CHAPTER 10 TOTALLY FLOORED Alexander woke up on the floor. His room was warm with sunlight, and there was no sign of the shadow smasher. His now-dead flashlight lay near the open notebook....

亚历山大在地板上醒过来。 他的房间里阳光温暖，没有影子粉碎者的迹象。 他已经熄灭的手电筒放在打开的笔记本旁边....

SOCKTOPUS A woven monster with eight mismatched arms. HABITAT Dresser drawers. Hampers. Gym bags. DIET Sports socks. knee-highs. (No leg warmers.)

一只编织的怪物，有八只不匹配的手臂。 HABITAT梳妆台抽屉。妨碍了。 健身袋。运动袜。 过膝。（没有护腿器。）

PEE-YEW! The stench of an unwashed socktopus can out-stink a skunk. BEHAVIOR A socktopus is born when you forget to sort your socks. If you come across a single, unmatched sock, a socktopus is lurking nearby. WARNING! The only way to stop a socktopus is to start wearing sandals.

PEE-YEW !一只没洗过的袜子的臭味比一只臭鼬还臭。 当你忘记整理袜子的时候，袜子宝宝就诞生了。 如果你遇到一只不匹配的袜子，那么一只袜子就潜伏在附近。 警告!阻止袜子的唯一方法就是开始穿凉鞋。

Alexander closed the notebook and sat up. His shadow sat up, too. "You're just my regular shadow, right?" said Alexander. He did a little chicken dance. His shadow copied his funky moves exactly. Alexander ran downstairs and gobbled up his breakfast in record time. "Happy Gopher Day, AI!" his dad said. "You're going to the park with Rip, right?" "Yep!" Alexander said. "See you there, Dad!" He shot out the door and into the woods. He couldn't wait to tell Rip about the spider shadow and the night-light. A moment later, Alexander heard a scream coming from the caboose. ARRGH!

亚历山大合上笔记本，坐了起来。 他的影子也坐了起来。“你只是我平常的影子，对吗？”亚历山大说。 他跳了一段小鸡舞。 他的影子完全模仿了他的古怪动作。 亚历山大跑下楼，以创纪录的速度狼吞虎咽地吃完早餐。 爸爸说：“AI，地鼠节快乐！” “你要和里普一起去公园，对吗？”“是的!”亚历山大说。 “那儿见，爸爸！”他冲出房门，跑进了树林。 他迫不及待地想告诉里普蜘蛛影子和夜灯的事。 过了一会儿，亚历山大听到从车尾传来一声尖叫。 啊!
