3 Off to Camp

Three off to camp ON A CRISP OCTOBER MORNING, Zeke and his parents gathered with Harris and his parents in the driveway next to the Walkers' house. Roxy was also there to see them off. "I believe that Zeke has all the necessary supplies," said Quar. "He has his emergency transmitter."

在一个清爽的十月早晨，齐克和他的父母与哈里斯和他的父母在沃克家旁边的车道上集合。 罗克西也在那里为他们送行。 “我相信齐克有所有必需的补给，”夸尔说。 “他有应急发射机。”

"It's called a cell phone," Zeke explained. "And his nutrition-infusion packets," Quar continued. "They're called energy bars," Zeke said. "Oh, don't worry," said Harris's dad. "There's always plenty of food for the campers. When I went as a kid, we had a cookout every night!"

“这叫手机，”齐克解释说。 “还有他的营养输液包，”夸尔继续说。 “它们被称为能量棒，”齐克说。 “哦，别担心，”哈里斯的爸爸说。 “露营者总是有充足的食物。 当我还是个孩子的时候，我们每天晚上都有一个野炊！”

"I think it's so cool that you two are going together," said Roxy. "Thanks, Roxy," said Zeke. "I wish you could come, too." "Oh, don't worry about me," Roxy said. "I'm going to see a soccer game this weekend with my cousin Rebecca. You two just have a great time!" "We will try," said Zeke. "Well, don't make it sound like work," Harris said. "It's going to be fun!"

“我觉得你们俩一起去真是太酷了，”罗克西说。 “谢谢，罗克西，”齐克说。 “我希望你也能来。” “哦，别为我担心，”罗克西说。 这个周末我要和我的表妹丽贝卡去看一场足球比赛。 你们俩玩得开心点！”“我们会试试的，”齐克说。 “好吧，别把它说得像工作一样。”哈里斯说。 “会很有趣的！”

"Time to go," said Harris's mom. "We don't want to be late for the bus." Zeke lifted a white, egg-shaped container from off his front lawn and placed it in the back of the car. "What that?" Roxy asked. "It's my travel pod," Zeke explained. "It holds my belongings." "Oh, you mean your suitcase," said Harris.

“该走了。”哈里斯的妈妈说。 “我们可不想赶不上公共汽车。” 齐克从他家前面的草坪上拿起一个白色的蛋形容器，放在车的后面。 “什么?”罗克西问道。“这是我的旅行舱，”齐克解释说。 “它装着我的东西。”“哦，你是说你的手提箱。”哈里斯说。

Zeke, Harris, and Harris's parents climbed into the car and drove away. "Bye!" yelled Roxy. Zeke's parents waved. Harris thought they looked a little worried. "Okay, let's make sure you have everything, Harris," said his mom. "Eight pairs of socks, right?" "Yes, Mom."

齐克、哈里斯和哈里斯的父母钻进车里，开走了。 “再见！”罗克西喊道。齐克的父母挥手。 哈里斯觉得他们看上去有点担心。 “好吧，我们来确保你什么都带齐了，哈里斯。”他妈妈说。 “八双袜子，对吧？”“是的,妈妈。”

"Five bathing suits, right?" "Mom, we—" "Three bottles each of sunscreen and bug spray, right?" "Mom, we went over this four times in the house!" Harris said. "I know, honey, but this is your first time away from home alone," said Mom.

“五件泳衣，对吧？”“妈妈，我们——”“每人三瓶防晒霜和杀虫剂，对吧？”“妈妈，我们在家里复习了四遍！”哈里斯说。 “我知道，宝贝，但这是你第一次独自离开家，”妈妈说。
