5 Hank's Pranks

HANK'S Pranks Pranks CAN BE harmless. Pranks can be fun. Not Hank's pranks. Oh no. They were deadly, as you might well expect from one of the world's worst children. Not a day went by without Hank playing a trick on someone. It could be something simple like:

汉克的恶作剧恶作剧可能是无害的。 恶作剧可以很有趣。不是汉克的恶作剧。 哦,不。他们是致命的,正如你所预料的那样,世界上最糟糕的孩子之一。 汉克每天都在捉弄别人。 它可以很简单,比如:

Deflating a balloon every time his teacher sat down to make it sound as if they'd BLOWN OFF... Sticking strips of sticky tape to the doorframe so anyone passing through became Stuck in it... Putting clingfilm round the toilet bowl so you splashed yourself as you peed... Smearing butter all over the kitchen floor so it became as Slippery as an ice rink... Tickling his sleeping father on the nose with a feather so he woke up with a giant SNEEZE...

每次他的老师一坐下,他就给气球放气,让它听起来好像他们被吹走了…… 把胶带粘在门框上,这样任何经过的人都会被困在里面…… 把保鲜膜包在马桶上,这样你在小便时就会溅到自己身上…… 在厨房地板上涂满黄油,弄得地板像溜冰场一样滑…… 用一根羽毛挠他熟睡的父亲的鼻子,他醒来时打了一个大大的喷嚏……

Or something more elaborate like: Pretending to be poisoned in the school cafeteria by painting his face purple and then lying on the floor, moaning loudly... "URGH! BEWARE THE FISH PIE!" On a school trip to a history museum, wrapping himself in toilet paper and pretending to be one of the Egyptian MUMMIES come to life! "WHA HA!" Concealing his arm up his jumper, and then squirting ketchup all over the woodwork room, pretending he had sawn it off... "NOOOO!"

或者更复杂一些,比如:在学校食堂假装中毒,把脸涂成紫色,然后躺在地板上,大声呻吟…… “呃! !小心鱼馅饼!”在一次去历史博物馆的学校旅行中,他把自己裹在卫生纸里,假装自己是一具活了过来的埃及木乃伊!“哇哈!”他把胳膊藏在毛衣里,然后把番茄酱喷得到处都是,假装他把胳膊锯掉了…… “他!”

Every time one of Hank's pranks landed, he would shout at the top of his voice, "GOTCHA!" Hank's family was the main target of his pranks: At his grandmother's house, he replaced her night cream with the real cream from the fridge. This meant she spent the whole night fighting off her six cats, who all tried to lick it off. "MIAOW!" "OFF!" yelled the poor old lady. "GOTCHA!" said Hank. His sister Molly had a terrible fear of sharks after seeing them on television, so when she went for her weekly swimming lesson Hank saw the perfect opportunity to terrorise her. He made a shark costume out of bin liners, fashioned a fin from a float then swam towards her. "ARGH!" she screamed. Now the girl is so frightened of water she won't even get in the bath. "GOTCHA!" said Hank.

每次汉克的恶作剧落地,他都会扯着嗓子大喊:“抓到他了!”汉克的家人是他恶作剧的主要目标:在他祖母家,他把她的晚霜换成了冰箱里的真霜。 这意味着她整个晚上都在和她的六只猫搏斗,它们都想把它舔掉。 “猫叫!”“走开!”可怜的老太太喊道。 “抓到你了!”汉克说。他的妹妹莫莉在电视上看到鲨鱼后,对鲨鱼产生了可怕的恐惧,所以当她去上每周的游泳课时,汉克看到了恐吓她的绝佳机会。 他用垃圾袋做了一件鲨鱼装,用漂浮物做了一个鳍,然后游向她。 “啊!”她尖叫起来。现在这个女孩很怕水,甚至不愿洗澡。 “抓到你了!”汉克说。

His father was allergic to cheese. Whenever he had it, the man had to dash to the toilet clutching his bottom for fear it might explode. So Hank bought a huge slab of cheese, and cut it into the shapes of biscuits. He then dipped the cheese shapes in melted chocolate. "Here you go, Dad, some lovely chocolate biscuits." "Ah, thank you, Hank. What a good boy you are," said Father. He took a large bite. Immediately he could hear his tummy FIZZING and POPPING. Before long he was clutching his bottom and running for the toilet. BLURT! "GERONIMO!" yelled Father as he ran. "GOTCHA!" said Hank. The man's bottom hit the toilet seat just as his bottom exploded. It was a dead heat. Father didn't come out of there for three whole days.

他父亲对奶酪过敏。 每当他有了它,他就不得不抓着屁股冲进厕所,担心它会爆炸。 所以汉克买了一大块奶酪,把它切成饼干的形状。 然后,他把奶酪形状浸入融化的巧克力中。 “给你,爸爸,一些可爱的巧克力饼干。” “啊,谢谢你,汉克。你真是个好孩子,”爸爸说。 他咬了一大口。他立刻听到肚子发出嘶嘶声和爆裂声。 没过多久,他就抓着屁股向厕所跑去。 突然说出!“杰罗尼莫!”父亲一边跑一边喊道。 “抓到你了!”汉克说。这名男子的屁股撞到了马桶座圈上,就在这时他的屁股爆炸了。 这是一场激烈的比赛。父亲整整三天没有出来。
