Chapter 7 WEIRD-A-MUNDO! "Eeuuw!" said Judy, running to get under the bug skeleton. "You said there were no vampire bats here, Thudd!" meep… "Sometimes animal move to new place," said Thudd. "Maybe vampire bat get lost." "And now it's looking for blood!" said Judy. "Well, it's not going to get mine!" Just as Andrew and Judy flopped the skeleton over themselves, the vampire bat swooped low. "I've always wanted to see a vampire bat," said Andrew. He lifted the skeleton just a crack. "Leaping lizards!" he cried. "This guy should be the star of his own horror movie!"
第七章奇异的世界!“嗷!”朱迪说着跑到虫子骨架下面。 “有时候动物会搬到新的地方去,”萨德说。 “也许吸血蝙蝠迷路了。” “现在它在找血!”朱迪说。 “好吧,它不会得到我的!”就在安德鲁和朱迪把骨架扑倒在他们身上时,吸血蝙蝠俯冲下来。 “我一直想看吸血蝙蝠,”安德鲁说。 他把骨架抬了一下。 “跳跃的蜥蜴!” “这家伙应该成为自己的恐怖电影的明星!”
meep… "Vampire bat got nose that feel heat from animal," said Thudd. "Nose help bat find good place to suck blood, too. "But Drewd and Oody not gotta worry. Vampire bat suck blood from sleeping animal." "Then let's move it!" said Judy. "I don't want that bozo-bat to think we're snoozing!"
“吸血蝙蝠的鼻子能感觉到动物身上的热量。” “鼻子也能帮助蝙蝠找到吸血的好地方。 “但是德鲁和伍迪不用担心。 吸血蝙蝠从熟睡的动物身上吸血。” “那我们就搬吧!”朱迪说。 “我可不想让那个笨蛋以为我们在打盹!”
"It's headed back toward where we came from," said Andrew, peeking out. meep… "Maybe suck blood from other bats," said Thudd. Andrew spied a narrow space between two of the mammoth tusks. They crept through it and kept hiking toward the glow of light. As they scrambled around a bend in the rock wall, the glow got brighter. They could see it through the bug skeleton. plip… plip… plip… came the soft sound of water dripping. Andrew lifted the skeleton. At first all Andrew could see was a glowing, twinkly blur. Then his eyes got used to the light. "Holy moly!" he said. They were in an enormous room. It was as long as two football fields and as high as a ten-story building. Huge shapes hung from the ceiling and rose from the floor. Many looked like enormous
“它正朝我们来的地方飞去。”安德鲁说着,向外窥视。 “也许会从别的蝙蝠身上吸血。” 安德鲁在两根猛犸象牙之间发现了一个狭窄的空间。 他们蹑手蹑脚地穿过它,继续向那片光亮的地方走去。 当他们爬过岩壁的一个弯道时,光线变得更亮了。 他们可以透过虫子的骨架看到它。 嘀嗒……嘀嗒……嘀嗒……传来了滴水的声音。 安德鲁举起了骨架。 起初,安德鲁只能看到一团闪烁的闪光。 然后他的眼睛习惯了光线。 “天哪!”他们在一个巨大的房间里。 它有两个足球场那么长,有十层楼那么高。 巨大的形状从天花板上悬挂下来,又从地板上升起。 许多看起来像巨大的
glistening white icicles. Others were shaped like waterfalls. Some looked like twisty tree branches and wedding cakes and strange animals. "Weird-a-mundo!" said Judy. "Looks like an ice palace!" said Andrew. meep… "Shapes hanging from ceiling called stalactites," said Thudd. "Shapes coming up from floor called stalagmites." Thudd pointed to his face screen. "Water dripping from cave ceiling carry special stony stuff," said Thudd. "Kinda like stuff teeth made of. Every water drop leave tiny bit of stony stuff behind. Stony stuff build up. Make stalactite.
闪闪发光的白色冰柱。还有一些形状像瀑布。 有些看起来像扭曲的树枝、婚礼蛋糕和奇怪的动物。 “真奇怪!”朱迪说。 “看起来像个冰宫殿!”安德鲁说。 “天花板上挂着一种叫钟乳石的东西。” “从地板上冒出来的形状叫做石笋。” 泰德指着他的屏幕。 “从洞顶滴下来的水携带着特殊的石头。” “有点像牙齿的材质。 每一滴水都会留下一小块石头。 石质物质堆积起来。钟乳石。
Make stalagmite. Take hundred years for stalactite to grow one inch!" plip… plip… plip… A drop of water sloshed over Andrew and soaked him. Everywhere, water was dripping, making little streams that came together and trickled off into the cave. "It's brighter up ahead," Andrew said. "Let's see if we can find where the light is coming from. Maybe there's a way out." Judy kicked the bottom of a stalagmite. "We're just getting deeper and deeper into this stupid cave," she said. meep… "Follow water. Find way out." Judy rolled her eyes and picked up her side of the bug skeleton. Andrew and Judy crept over the slippery stones near a stream. Suddenly the glow became a bright beam from high up. Andrew looked up. There was a hole in the cave ceiling! Andrew could see the moon!
石笋。“喂……喂……喂……”一滴水溅到安德鲁身上,把他湿透了。 到处都是滴水,汇成小溪,涓涓细流流进洞里。 “前面更亮了,”安德鲁说。 “让我们看看能不能找到光是从哪里来的。 也许有一条出路。”朱迪踢了一根石笋的底部。 “我们只是在这个愚蠢的洞穴里越陷越深,”她说。 跟着水走。找到出路。” 朱迪翻了个白眼,捡起了她那一侧的虫子骨架。 安德鲁和朱迪蹑手蹑脚地爬过一条小溪旁光滑的石头。 突然,那道光从高处变成了一道明亮的光束。 安德鲁抬起头来。洞顶上有个洞!安德鲁能看到月亮了!
"Wowzers schnauzers!" said Andrew. "That's where the light is coming from!" "Hey!" said Judy. "Maybe we can climb a stalactite and get out of here." "Noop! Noop! Noop!" said Thudd. "Stalactite slippery, slippery slippery! Gotta follow water!" Hauling the bug skeleton between them, Andrew and Judy trudged on. Suddenly Andrew slipped. "Urf!" he cried as he slid down a large, bumpy boulder. Andrew landed on his back in an ice-cold stream. The boulder loomed above him. At its top were two large, round holes. There was a triangle- shaped hole in the middle—and teeth at the bottom! "Uh-oh," he said. "It's a… a… skull!"
“哇兹雪纳瑞!”安德鲁说。 “那就是光的来源!”“嘿!”朱迪说。 “也许我们可以爬上钟乳石,离开这里。” “等待!等待!不!” “钟乳石滑,滑,滑!”得跟着水走!”安德鲁和朱迪拖着虫子的骨架,艰难地往前走。 安德鲁突然滑倒了。“呸!”他一边从一块凹凸不平的大石头上滑下来,一边叫道。 安德鲁仰面摔倒在冰冷的小溪里。 巨石隐约出现在他的头顶上。 在它的顶端有两个又大又圆的洞。 中间有一个三角形的洞,底部有牙齿!“哦哦,”他说。 “是一个……一个……骷髅!”
