1 JUNK MAIL

THE NOTEBOOK OF DOOM POP OF THE BUMPY MUMMY

坎坷的木乃伊的厄运笔记本

CHAPTER 1 JUNK MAIL Alexander Bopp was almost home when he heard the screaming. It was coming from his house. He ran to his yard. His dad was on the front porch, twisting and shouting. "Dad?!" he yelled.

亚历山大·波普快到家的时候听到了尖叫声。 声音是从他家里传来的。 他跑到他的院子里。他的父亲站在前廊上，扭动着身子，大喊大叫。 “爸爸？！”

Alexander had seen lots of weird things since moving to Stermont. Weird things like monsters. He'd battled balloon goons, shadow smashers, tunnel fish, and other creepy creatures. Alexander looked from the porch to the trees to the driveway. No monsters. Oh, wait— Dad's not under attack, he thought. He's dancing! "Good news, AI!" his dad said. "It's finally here!"

自从搬到斯特蒙特以来，亚历山大看到了许多奇怪的事情。 奇怪的东西，比如怪物。 他曾与气球暴徒、影子粉碎者、隧道鱼和其他令人毛骨悚然的生物战斗过。 亚历山大看了看门廊，看了看树木，又看了看车道。 没有怪物。哦，等等——爸爸没有受到攻击，他想。 他是跳舞!“好消息，AI!”他爸爸说。 “终于来了！”

Alexander's dad boogied into the house. Alexander followed. dropping his backpack by the door. "What's here, Dad?" His dad spun around, holding a padded envelope. "The Reflecto-900 is here!" he said. He ripped open the envelope and pulled out a golden wand. "It's the perfect dental tool!" REFLECTO-900 Built-in light Fog-proof mirror Solid gold!

亚历山大的爸爸蹦蹦跳跳地进了屋子。 亚历山大。他把背包丢在门边。 “这是什么，爸爸？”他爸爸转过身来，手里拿着一个带衬垫的信封。 “‘反光900’来了！”他说。 他撕开信封，抽出一根金魔杖。 “这是完美的牙科工具！”反光900内置光防雾镜纯金！

Alexander gave his dad a funny look. "Geez, AI!" his dad said. "If you were a dentist. you'd be going nuts about this mirror!" He polished the Reflecto-900 on his sleeve. "Let's see if your package is any better." "I have a package?" asked Alexander. You sure do," his dad said. "Although it doesn't say who it's from." He handed Alexander a rainbow-striped box. It was large, but very light. "It looks like a birthday present!" said Alexander's dad. "It can't be," said Alexander. "My birthday isn't until February twenty-ninth. That's months away." He tore into the box. "Look at all that bubble wrap!" his dad said. "Whatever is in there must be good!" Alexander dug around in the box. He yanked out a huge blob of bubble wrap.

亚历山大奇怪地看了他爸爸一眼。 “天哪，AI!”他爸爸说。“如果你是个牙医。 你会为这面镜子发疯的！”他擦亮袖子上的反光900。 “让我看看你的包裹是不是更好。” “我有一个包裹？”亚历山大问。 你当然知道，”他爸爸说。 “不过上面没说是谁写的。” 他递给亚历山大一个彩虹条纹的盒子。 它很大，但很轻。 “它看起来像一份生日礼物！”亚历山大的爸爸说。 “不可能，”亚历山大说。 “我的生日是2月29日。 那是几个月以后的事了。”他飞快地钻进箱子。 “看那些气泡纸！”他爸爸说。 “里面的东西一定是好的！”亚历山大在盒子里翻来翻去。 他猛地掏出一大团气泡纸。

"It's empty," he said. "Check again," his dad said. "You must have missed something." Alexander checked. "Nope," he said. "Just a bunch of bubble wrap." His shoulders slumped. "Sorry, kiddo," his dad said.

“它是空的，”他说。“再检查一遍，”他爸爸说。 “你一定错过了什么。” 亚历山大检查。“不，”他说。 “只是一堆气泡纸。” 他的肩膀耷拉下来。“对不起，孩子，”他爸爸说。
