1 NYEEEEEEEEEE

Chapter 1 NYEEEEEEEEEE… Andrew Dubble, smaller than a speck of dust, flopped onto his uncle Al's wrist. Andrew, his pocket-sized robot friend Thudd, and his thirteen-year-old cousin Judy had just been plucked from an Australian river by their uncle Al. He had come looking for them with a rowboat and a powerful searchlight. Wowzers schnauzers! thought Andrew, bouncing on Uncle Al's skin. We're too small to see! And it's nighttime, too. During their trip down the river, a shock from an electrical fish had shrunk them from the size of beetles to the size of bacteria. When Uncle Al had opened their vehicle, the shiny, round Umbubble, they had tumbled out of it.

第一章嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘嘘 安德鲁、他的口袋大小的机器人朋友塔德和他13岁的表妹朱迪刚刚被他们的叔叔艾尔从澳大利亚的一条河里救了上来。 他带着一只划艇和一盏强大的探照灯来找他们。 一雪纳瑞!安德鲁想，在阿尔叔叔的皮肤上跳来跳去。 我们太小了，看不见！而且现在也是晚上。 在他们顺流而下的过程中，一条电鱼的电击使他们从甲虫的大小缩小到细菌的大小。 当艾尔叔叔打开他们的车，那辆锃亮的圆形Umbubble时，他们从车里滚了出来。

Ga-nuff… ga-nuff… ga-newww… Judy snored. The shock that had made them small had also made Judy snooze. With one hand, Andrew clutched the collar of Judy's jacket to keep her from falling off Uncle Al's wrist and into the river. With his other hand, he clung to one of Uncle Al's hairs. Uncle Al shined his searchlight on the river. Andrew looked up at Uncle Al. It was like looking up at the gigantic head of one of the presidents carved into Mount Rushmore. Uncle Al's bushy eyebrows came together like two gigantic caterpillars. His frowning eyes scanned the dark ripples around his boat. "I wonder if they fell out when I opened the Umbubble," he said to himself. "Uncle Al!" cried Andrew. But Andrew's voice was much too small for Uncle Al to hear. meep… "Purple-button time!" came a squeaky voice from Andrew's pocket. It was Thudd,

Ga-nuff…Ga-nuff…ga-newww...朱迪打呼噜了。 使他们变得渺小的震动也使朱迪打起了盹儿。 安德鲁用一只手抓住朱迪的衣领，以免她从阿尔叔叔的手腕上掉到河里。 他用另一只手抓着艾尔叔叔的一根头发。 阿尔叔叔用探照灯照着河。 安德鲁抬头看着艾尔叔叔。 那感觉就像抬头看着雕刻在拉什莫尔山上的某位总统的巨大头像。 艾尔叔叔浓密的眉毛凑在一起，像两条巨大的毛毛虫。 他皱着眉头的眼睛扫视着船周围黑色的涟漪。 “我不知道它们是不是在我打开Umbubble的时候掉出来的。”他自言自语道。 “艾尔叔叔！”安德鲁叫道。但是安德鲁的声音太小了，阿尔叔叔听不见。 “按紫色纽扣的时间到了！”安德鲁衣袋里传来一个尖细的声音。 是砰，

Andrew's little silver robot and best friend. In the middle of Thudd's chest were three rows of buttons with three buttons in each row. All of the buttons blinked green except for the big purple one in the middle. Pressing this button was the way Andrew, Judy, and Thudd could reach Uncle Al in an emergency. Thudd pressed his purple button. It blinked three times and went off. Nyeeeeeeeee… The sound was close by. What's that? wondered Andrew. Nyeeeeeeeee… The sound kept getting louder. NYEEEEEEEEE… The whining was so close and so loud that it hurt Andrew's tiny ears. By the glare of the searchlight, Andrew made out something strange just above his head. It looked like a giant, hairy flower bud attached to a

安德鲁的银色小机器人和最好的朋友。 在泰德的胸膛中央有三排纽扣，每排有三个纽扣。 所有的按钮都闪烁着绿色，除了中间那个紫色的大按钮。 按这个按钮是安德鲁、朱迪和萨德在紧急情况下联系阿尔叔叔的方法。 砰砰按下他的紫色按钮。 它眨了三下眼睛就熄灭了。 那声音就在附近。 那是什么?想知道安德鲁。 那声音越来越大。 呜呜声离得那么近，那么响，弄痛了安德鲁的小耳朵。 透过探照灯的强光，安德鲁看清了他头顶上方有个奇怪的东西。 它看起来像一个巨大的、毛茸茸的花蕾，附着在一个

long, hairy stem. Andrew's eyes followed the stem up. Way above, he glimpsed what was at the end of the stem—a horrible head! "Yowzers!" he whispered. Two black eyes covered most of the head like a helmet. Long, hairy antennas stuck out from under the eyes. Eek! "Mosquito!" squeaked Thudd. Suddenly the hairy bud snapped open and slammed down over Andrew and Judy! Eek! squeaked Thudd. "Mosquito snout! Called proboscis." Inside the darkness of the mosquito snout, Andrew and Judy were squashed between two walls. Andrew couldn't move. He tried to push the walls.

茎长，多毛。安德鲁的目光顺着树干往上看。 在高处，他瞥见了茎尾的东西——一个可怕的脑袋！“尤尔斯！”他小声说。 两只黑色的眼睛像头盔一样覆盖了头部的大部分。 长长的、毛茸茸的触角从眼睛下面伸出来。 唷!“蚊子！” 突然，毛茸茸的花蕾啪的一声开了，砸在安德鲁和朱迪身上！唷!Thudd吱吱地。 “蚊子鼻子!长鼻”。 在蚊子鼻子的黑暗中，安德鲁和朱迪被挤在两堵墙之间。 安德鲁动弹不得。他试图推墙。

"Youch!" he said. The walls had razor-sharp edges, like blades. The snout began to shove Andrew and Judy along Uncle Al's skin. Eek! squeaked Thudd. "Mosquito look for good place to bite! Look for tiny blood tube called capillary. Near top of skin." "What if Uncle Al swats the mosquito?" asked Andrew. "He'll crush us, too." meep… "Mosquito light, light, light!" said Thudd. "Human not feel anything yet." Ga-nufff… ga-nufff… ga-newww… snored Judy. She squirmed as though she were having a bad dream.

“你！”他说。墙壁的边缘像剃刀一样锋利。 鼻子开始沿着艾尔叔叔的皮肤推安德鲁和朱迪。 唷!Thudd吱吱地。“蚊子找好地方咬！”寻找被称为毛细血管的微小血管。 靠近皮肤顶部。”“如果艾尔叔叔拍蚊子怎么办？”安德鲁问。 “叮叮灯，叮叮灯，叮叮灯！” “人类还没有感觉到任何东西。” ga-nuff…ga-nuff…ga-newww...朱迪打呼噜。 她局促不安，好像做了个噩梦。

"Androoooo?" she said sleepily. "Jeepers creepers!" said Andrew. "You've been asleep for a long time!" Judy rubbed her eyes. "Where are we?" she asked. "Where's Uncle Al?" "Um," Andrew began. But just then, the blades inside the snout started sawing into Uncle Al's skin! Andrew sniffed a coppery smell. Blood! he thought. Eek! "Mosquito snout gonna push Drewd and Oody inside Uncle Al!" squeaked Thudd. "Drewd got Schnozzle?" Andrew shoved a hand into one of his pants pockets. He quickly pulled out two pairs of black goggles with noses attached and mustaches underneath. He handed one pair to Judy. "Put on the Schnozzle, Judy!" said Andrew. Judy pushed her face into Andrew's. "This isn't Halloween, Bug-Brain!" she yelled. meep… "Quick! Quick! Quick!" said Thudd.

“安卓？”她困倦地说。 “该死的爬虫！”安德鲁说。 “你睡了好长时间啊！”朱迪揉了揉眼睛。 “我们在哪儿？”她问。 “艾尔叔叔在哪儿？”“嗯，”安德鲁开始说。 但就在这时，鼻子里的刀片开始锯进阿尔叔叔的皮肤！安德鲁闻到了一股铜味。 血!他想。唷!“蚊子鼻子要把德鲁和伍迪推到阿尔叔叔肚子里去！” “德鲁抓了施托夫？”安德鲁把手伸进裤子口袋里。 他很快拿出两副黑色的护目镜，里面连着鼻子和胡子。 他递给朱迪一双。 “戴上鼻管，朱迪！”安德鲁说。 朱迪把脸贴在安德鲁的脸上。 “这不是万圣节，笨蛋！”她喊道。 meep…”快!快!快！”
