7 Mite-y Big Problems

chapter 7 MITE-Y BIG PROBLEMS "Nooooo!" Andrew screamed. He tumbled down Harley's eyelid and crashed into one of his eyelashes. "Are you okay?" Judy shouted down. "I think so," said Andrew. He tried to get to his feet. But he started sinking! "Help!" Andrew hollered. meep… "Deep eyelash follicle!" said Thudd. Before Andrew could do anything, he was up to his waist in an oil pit! "I'm coming!" Judy yelled. Andrew pulled Thudd out of his pocket to keep him out of the oil. With his other hand, Andrew

第七章小问题“不！”安德鲁尖叫。 他从哈利的眼皮上滚下来，撞到了他的一根睫毛上。 “你还好吗？”朱迪大声喊道。 “我想是的，”安德鲁说。 他试着站起来。 但是他开始下沉！“救命!”安德鲁大声喊道。 “浓密的睫毛囊！” 安德鲁还没来得及做任何事，他就已经陷进了一个油坑里！“我来了!”朱迪喊道。 安德鲁把泰德从口袋里拽了出来，不让他靠近石油。 用另一只手，安德鲁

grabbed the edge of the follicle. But it was too slippery to get a grip. Judy climbed down Harley's eyelid and crawled to the edge of the follicle. Andrew's head was bobbing just above the oil! "Yikes!" Andrew cried. "There's something slithering around in here! It feels like this pit is full of snakes!"

抓住毛囊边缘。 但是太滑了，抓不住。 朱迪顺着哈利的眼皮往下爬，爬到毛囊的边缘。 安德鲁的头正浮在石油上方！“呀! !”安德鲁哭了。 “这儿有什么东西在滑动！”感觉这个坑里全是蛇！”

meep… "Eyelash mites," Thudd said. "Eyelash mites live upside down in follicle. Eat oil and skin flakes. Humans got eyelash mites, too. See!" "I've got to get out of here before these mites think I'm a skin flake!" said Andrew. Judy grabbed Andrew's hand and tried to yank him out. She groaned. "You sure are heavy," she said. "I can pull better if I stand up. Whoops!" Judy slipped and tumbled into the follicle. "Yikes!" she yelped. "I got pinched!" meep… "Eyelash mites got claws," said Thudd. "Cousins of lobsters!"

“睫毛螨，”萨德说。 “睫毛螨生活在毛囊里。 吃油脂和皮屑。人类也有睫毛螨。 看!”“我必须在这些螨虫认为我是皮屑之前离开这里！”安德鲁说。 朱迪抓住安德鲁的手，想把他拽出来。 她呻吟着。“你确实很重，”她说。 “如果我站起来，我可以拉得更好。 哎呀!”朱迪滑倒，跌进了卵泡。 “哎呀！”她叫道。“睫毛螨长了爪子。” “龙虾的近亲！”

"Do these stupid mites ever leave a follicle?" asked Judy. "Yoop," said Thudd. "When follicle too crowded, mites leave." "So let's make this follicle feel like an overstuffed school bus!" said Judy. "If a mite tries to get out, we can hitch a ride." Judy and Andrew started shoving their prickly neighbors. The mites thrashed back. "I think this mite is getting out!" said Andrew. Andrew wrapped his arms around the slippery tail of the mite next to him. It squirmed tail-first toward the top of the follicle.

“这些愚蠢的螨虫会留下毛囊吗？”朱迪问。 “哇！”当毛囊太拥挤时，螨虫就会离开。 “所以让我们把这个毛囊弄得像一辆塞满东西的校车！”朱迪说。 “如果有小虫想出去，我们可以搭个便车。” 朱蒂和安德鲁开始推搡他们易怒的邻居。 螨虫又打回去了。“我想这只螨虫要出来了！”安德鲁说。 安德鲁用胳膊搂住旁边那只小螨虫滑滑的尾巴。 它尾巴朝前向毛囊顶端蠕动。

"Grab on to me, Judy!" said Andrew. Judy caught hold of Andrew's belt. The eyelash mite gave another squirm and slithered out onto Harley's eyelid. Judy and Andrew flopped off the mite. It wriggled over to another follicle. "Woofers!" said Andrew. "That was awful!"

“抓住我，朱迪！”安德鲁说。 朱迪抓住安德鲁的腰带。 睫毛螨又蠕动了一下，爬到了哈利的眼皮上。 朱蒂和安德鲁把那只小虫子扔了。 它蠕动到另一个卵泡。 “低音炮！”安德鲁说。“太可怕了！”

"That's the first time you've been right today" said Judy. Judy and Andrew picked up some soft skin flakes and started wiping the oil off themselves. Thudd grabbed on to Andrew's shirt and pinched his way back into Andrew's shirt pocket. "Ah… ah… ah-choof!" Judy sneezed. "It's my dog allergy." meep… "Bless oo!" said Thudd. "Oody not lergic to whole dog. Oody lergic to skin flakes and these." Thudd pointed to the scales on the hairs. Some of them had cracked off. Hair scales were floating into the air with the skin flakes. Judy looked up at Harley's head. "I've got an idea," she said. "This time, let's do what mountain climbers do." Judy took off her belt and threaded it through one of the loops on her jeans. Andrew looped his belt the same way. Then Judy buckled the ends of the two belts together.

“这是你今天第一次说对了。”朱迪说。 朱迪和安德鲁拿起一些柔软的皮肤薄片，开始擦拭自己身上的油。 泰德抓住安德鲁的衬衫，挤回了安德鲁的衬衫口袋里。 “啊……啊……啊——噗！”朱迪打喷嚏。 “这是我对狗过敏。” “我对整只狗不过敏。 我对皮肤碎片和这些过敏。” 泰德指着头发上的鳞片。 其中一些已经裂开了。 头发鳞片和皮肤碎片一起飘到了空中。 朱迪抬头看着哈利的头。 “我有个主意，”她说。 “这一次，让我们做登山者做的事情。” 朱迪脱下腰带，把它穿过牛仔裤上的一个环。 安德鲁也用同样的方法把腰带打了个圈。 然后朱迪把两条腰带的两端扣在一起。
