14 Takinga Stand

CHAPTER 14 TAKING A STAND I need to do something outstanding—something awe- some, something that betters the school. But what? I could mow the grass and have a lawn sale. I could rename the gym... Ted. I could take home plate home and put it in the dishwasher.

我需要做一些杰出的事情——一些令人敬畏的事情——一些让学校变得更好的事情。 但是什么?我可以割草，搞个草坪义卖。 我可以给健身房重新命名…Ted。 我可以把本垒板带回家，放在洗碗机里。

WHAT A BRILLIANT MIND I HAVE. MOM, COULD YOU WASH THIS FOR ME?

我的头脑真聪明。 妈妈，你能帮我洗一下这个吗？

Wow! All the kids have dropped their ice cream wrap- pers on the floor. I'll pick them up. I'll be an environmental hero. I'll be the candidate of the Mrs. Green Party! I'll save the planet. This feels good. Now I do stand for something. PICK THOSE UP, HUBIE. IT'S MY DUTY, MRS. GREEN.

哇!所有的孩子都把他们的冰淇淋包装纸掉在地上了。 我去接他们。我要成为环保英雄。 我将成为绿党的候选人！我要拯救地球。 这感觉很好。现在我确实代表了一些东西。 把那些捡起来，伙计。这是我的责任，夫人。 绿色的。
