6 Splitting Up!

Chapter 6 SPLITTING UP! Mrs. Scuttle's knife chopped the tomato in half. Andrew and Judy were caught on opposite sides! Andrew peered toward the other half of the tomato. Mrs. Scuttle was slicing it! She plopped three dripping slices onto the cheese-covered bread. Then Mrs. Scuttle shook some salt onto the tomato slices and laid a piece of bread on top of them. "Now I'll get my little sandwichy into the oven," she said. "Mmm-mmm-mmm!"

第六章分手！斯卡托太太的小刀把西红柿切成两半。 安德鲁和朱迪被困在对立的两边！安德鲁盯着西红柿的另一半。 斯卡托太太在切它！她扑通一声把三片滴滴滴落的面包放在涂了奶酪的面包上。 然后，斯卡特尔太太在西红柿片上摇了一些盐，并在上面放了一片面包。 “现在我要把我的小三明治放进烤箱，”她说。 “Mmm-mmm-mmm !”

She glanced at the microwave oven and then at the toaster oven. "Eeny meeny miney moe…." meep… "All food got water inside," said Thudd. "Microwave make water molecules flip around fast, fast, fast! Get hot, hot, hot! Then water molecules make other molecules hot. Toaster oven work different. Make all molecules hot." "I think I'll use the microwave," said Mrs. Scuttle. "It's faster!" She grabbed the sandwich off the plate and popped it into the microwave oven. She set the timer and turned the oven on. "Oh no!" yelled Andrew. "If Judy's on that sandwich…" "Oody!" whimpered Thudd. His eyes closed. "Shnurm… shnurm… shnurm…" Thudd was snoring again. "I'd better put the rest of this tomato in the fridge," said Mrs. Scuttle. The kitchen became a blur as Mrs. Scuttle whisked Andrew's half of the tomato away and

她看了看微波炉，又看了看烤面包机。 “迷你迷你移动....” “所有的食物里面都有水。” “微波使水分子翻转得很快，很快，很快！”热起来，热起来，热起来！然后水分子使其他分子变热。 烤面包机和烤箱的工作原理不同。 使所有分子都变热。”“我想我要用微波炉，”斯卡特尔太太说。 “快!”她从盘子里抓起三明治，把它塞进微波炉。 她设好定时器，打开烤箱。 “哦，不！”安德鲁喊道。“如果朱迪在那块三明治上……”“哇！” 他闭上了眼睛。“嘘……嘘……嘘……”泰德又在打鼾。 “我最好把剩下的西红柿放到冰箱里，”斯卡特尔太太说。 厨房里一片模糊，斯卡托太太把安德鲁的那一半西红柿拿走了

opened the refrigerator door. From the edge of the tomato, Andrew saw the top shelf of the refrigerator. It was crowded! There were bottles of orange soda, a carton of milk, and a cooked turkey. Jars of jelly and mustard and mayonnaise were piled on top of each other. "Hmm," mused Mrs. Scuttle. "There isn't room for another crumb in this refrigerator." Mrs. Scuttle leaned down to the middle shelf. It was jammed, too. There were jars of pickles and olives, a water jug, and chocolate cupcakes. In the center of the shelf sat a big cabbage with part of its top cut off. "I guess this will have to do," said Mrs. Scuttle. She set Andrew's half of the tomato on top of the cabbage and slammed the refrigerator door shut. The light in the refrigerator went off. Jars and bottles clanked against each other. The cabbage tipped, and Andrew's tomato slid to the edge of the cabbage and bumped into a jar of pickles.

打开冰箱门。 从西红柿的边缘，安德鲁看到了冰箱的顶层。 太拥挤了！有几瓶桔子汽水、一盒牛奶和一只煮熟的火鸡。 一罐一罐的果冻、芥末和蛋黄酱堆叠在一起。 “嗯，”斯卡特尔太太若有所思地说。 “冰箱里没有地方再放面包屑了。” 斯卡托太太向中间的架子俯下身来。 它也被卡住了。有几罐泡菜和橄榄，一个水壶，还有巧克力纸杯蛋糕。 在架子的中央放着一棵大卷心菜，顶部被切掉了一部分。 “我想只好这样了，”斯卡特尔太太说。 她把安德鲁的那一半西红柿放在卷心菜上，然后砰地关上了冰箱门。 冰箱里的灯灭了。 坛子和瓶子互相碰撞。 白菜翻了，安德鲁的西红柿滑到了白菜边上，撞到了一罐泡菜上。

Andrew shivered. It was cold! He snapped his flashlight on. Splot! A big drop of something plopped down onto the tomato. meep… "Whazzit?" Thudd said as he woke up. Andrew shined his light up. The milk carton was above them. "It must be leaking," said Andrew. meep… "Milk mostly water," said Thudd. "Milk white cuz of little protein blobs and little fat blobs. Milk got germs, too. Milk alive!"

安德鲁颤抖。天气很冷！他啪地一声打开手电筒。 Splot !一颗很大的东西落在番茄上。 meep…“Whazzit ?”泰德醒来时说道。 安德鲁把灯照了照。 牛奶盒在他们上面。 “一定是漏水了。”安德鲁说。 “牛奶主要是水。” 牛奶是白色的，因为里面有少量的蛋白质和脂肪。 牛奶也有细菌。牛奶活着!”

Andrew beamed his flashlight at the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Far below, he could see an open carton of yogurt, a bowl of eggs, and a half-eaten sandwich on a glass plate. There was a wedge of cheese with blue streaks running through it. And then Andrew spied it. "Super-duper pooper scooper!" he said. "Look, Thudd! A stick of butter!" meep… "Why did elephants get thrown out of pool?" asked Thudd. "Not keep trunks up! Hee hee!" Thudd's big purple button began to blink. It snapped open, and Uncle Al appeared at the end of a thin purple beam. "Hey there!" said the Uncle Al hologram. "I tried to stay with you last time, but Thudd's antennas are starting to rust. I'm reaching you with a high-power hologram. Where are you now?" "We're in Mrs. Scuttle's refrigerator," said Andrew.

安德鲁用手电筒照着冰箱最底层的架子。 在下面很远的地方，他可以看到一盒打开的酸奶，一碗鸡蛋和一个玻璃盘里吃了一半的三明治。 有一块楔形的奶酪，上面有蓝色的条纹。 然后安德鲁发现了。“超级屎铲！”他说。 “看,Thudd !“为什么大象会被扔出池塘？”泰德问。 “不要把箱子挂起来！”嘻嘻!”泰德的紫色大纽扣开始闪烁。 门啪的一声打开了，艾尔叔叔出现在一束细细的紫色光束的末端。 “嘿，你们好！”阿尔叔叔全息图说。 “上次我想和你待在一起，但是泰德的天线开始生锈了。 我正在用高能全息图联系你。 你现在在哪儿？”“我们在斯卡特尔太太的冰箱里，”安德鲁说。

"Good work!" said Uncle Al. A proud smile spread across his face. "I knew you'd find a way to get into the kitchen! Any progress with getting Thudd buttered up? If his antennas get rustier, I won't be able to reach you." "There's some butter on the refrigerator shelf below us," said Andrew. "But I don't know how we can get it." Uncle Al grinned. "I think I have an idea…," he said.

“干得好！”阿尔叔叔说。 他脸上绽开骄傲的笑容。 “我就知道你会想办法进厨房的！”给阿德涂黄油有进展吗？ 如果他的天线生锈了，我就联系不到你了。” “我们下面的冰箱架子上有一些黄油，”安德鲁说。 “但我不知道我们怎么才能得到它。” 艾尔叔叔笑了。“我想我有个主意……”他说。
