10 A Bad Time for Boogers

Chapter 10 A BAD TIME FOR BOOGERS… Andrew slammed his foot down on the gas pedal. The Water Bug shot off. meep… "Baby Hawaiian island getting born here! All Hawaiian islands born from volcanoes," said Thudd. "Hot lava pour out on bottom of ocean. When lava get cool, turn into rock. Lotsa, lotsa rock pile up. Make island! Baby island take lotsa years to grow up. Maybe in ten thousand years, humans visit new island!" Pillow-shaped chunks of lava rocketed up toward the Water Bug. Clunk! Cachunk!

第十章鼻屎的倒霉日子安德鲁猛踩油门。 水虫飞走了。“夏威夷宝宝在这里出生了！”所有夏威夷岛屿都诞生于火山。” “滚烫的熔岩涌向海底。 熔岩冷却后就变成了岩石。 一堆一堆的石头。 让岛!宝宝岛需要很多年才能长大。 也许一万年后，人类会造访新的岛屿！”枕头形状的熔岩块向水虫涌来。 呯!Cachunk !

Lava rocks were crashing into the glass floor of the Water Bug and bouncing off the hood! Orange fireworks exploded around the Water Bug. Andrew couldn't tell if he was going toward the volcano or away from it! Then something strange started happening. Bop! Bop! Bop! The Water Bug was being pushed into calmer water. Someone was helping them! The bumping and pushing didn't stop until the Water Bug was away from the fountains of fire. Dark shadows shot up through the water. One of the shadows had a bite in its tail. "It's Nahu and his friend!" said Judy. The two dolphins tapped their noses on the windshield. "They pushed us away from the volcano!" said Andrew. "We love you!" said Judy, patting the windshield.

熔岩岩石撞在水虫的玻璃地板上，在引擎盖上反弹！橙色的烟花在水虫周围爆炸。 安德鲁分不清自己是朝火山走去还是远离火山！然后奇怪的事情开始发生了。 防喷器!防喷器!防喷器!水虫被推到平静的水中。 有人在帮助他们！直到水虫离开了火喷泉，他们才停止了推搡。 黑影从水面上窜出。 其中一个影子的尾巴被咬了一口。 “那胡和他的朋友！”朱迪说。 两只海豚用鼻子轻敲挡风玻璃。 “他们把我们推离了火山！”安德鲁说。 “我们爱你！”朱迪拍着挡风玻璃说。

The dolphins looked like they were smiling! Clicks and whistles came through the speaker. Suddenly the compass in the middle of the steering wheel started blinking red. The compass needle was spinning around and around. "Uh-oh," said Andrew. "Something's wrong with the Super-Sniffer." glurp… "The Super-Sniffer has lava boogers!" said the Water Bug. Andrew peered out at the hood. The Super- Sniffer was twitching. glurp… "Cannot find the trail of the giant squid until boogers are removed." "This should be easy," said Andrew. He pressed the Octo-Tool button. "Remove boogers from the Super-Sniffer!" he commanded. The hood popped up, and tentacles slithered out. Two of the tentacles poked up into the Super- Sniffer's nostrils. They twisted around inside for a long time.

海豚看起来像是在微笑！喇叭里传来咔哒声和口哨声。 突然，方向盘中间的罗盘开始闪烁红色。 指南针的指针在不停地旋转。 “哦哦，”安德鲁说。“超级嗅探器有点不对劲。” “超级嗅探有熔岩鼻屎！”水虫说。 安德鲁朝外面的兜帽看去。 超级嗅探在抽搐。 “除非鼻屎被移除，否则找不到巨型乌贼的踪迹。” “这应该很容易，”安德鲁说。 他按下了八进制工具按钮。 “去掉超级嗅探器的鼻屎！”他命令道。 兜帽突然打开，触角滑了出来。 两条触角伸到了超级嗅探的鼻孔里。 他们在里面扭了很长时间。

glurp… "Octo-Tool tentacles are stuck inside the Super-Sniffer," said the Water Bug. "Must remove tentacles. Must use the Nose Pick to remove boogers." "Nose Pick!" said Judy. "Yuck-a-rama!" "I think it's in the toolbox," said Andrew. Andrew crept between the seats to the tiny kitchen at the back of the Water Bug. He opened the cabinet under the sink and took out a metal toolbox. Inside the box were hammers and pliers and wrenches and screwdrivers. And there was a big fuzzy finger with a handle. "The Nose Pick!" said Andrew, pulling the fuzzy finger out of the box. "What are you going to do with that stupid thing?" Judy asked. "You can't go outside." "Just a minute," said Andrew, ducking back under the sink. When he came out, he was holding two football-sized green blobs covered with bumps.

“章鱼工具的触角卡在超级嗅探器里了。”水虫说。 “必须去掉触手。必须用鼻签去除鼻屎。” “挖鼻锥！”朱迪说。“Yuck-a-rama !”“我想它在工具箱里，”安德鲁说。 安德鲁从座位之间爬到水虫后面的小厨房。 他打开水槽下面的柜子，拿出一个金属工具箱。 盒子里有锤子、钳子、扳手和螺丝刀。 还有一个带把手的毛茸茸的大手指。 “抠鼻器！”安德鲁说着，把那根毛茸茸的手指从盒子里抽出来。 “你要拿那破东西怎么办？”朱迪问。 “你不能出去。”“等一下。”安德鲁说着，又躲到水槽下面。 当他出来的时候，手里拿着两个足球大小的绿色斑点，上面布满了凸起。

Andrew handed one of the blobs to Judy. "We can go outside," said Andrew. "Just pull on these Bubble Duds over your clothes. They'll keep you dry and warm and let you breathe. "Look," said Andrew, pointing to the bumps on the green blob. "These are bubbles with air inside. And they can pull more oxygen from the water." Judy touched the blob. It was sticky and squishy. "You've got to be kidding," said Judy. "Um, no," said Andrew. "I need you to come outside and hold the flashlight so I can see the lava boogers and pull them out." Andrew unsnapped the mini-flashlight he always carried on his belt loop and handed it to Judy. "Cheese Louise!" said Judy. "Remind me to never, ever, ever let you talk me into anything ever again!" Andrew went back to the front seat. He slipped Thudd into a little plastic sack called the Bubble

安德鲁把其中一团递给朱迪。 “我们可以到外面去。”安德鲁说。 “把这些泡泡衣套在衣服上就行了。 它们会让你保持干燥和温暖，让你呼吸。 “看，”安德鲁指着绿色斑点上的凸起说。 “这些是气泡，里面有空气。 它们可以从水中吸收更多的氧气。” 朱迪摸了摸那团东西。它又黏又软。 “你在开玩笑吧，”朱迪说。 “嗯，不，”安德鲁说。“我需要你出去拿着手电筒，这样我就能看到熔岩鼻屎，把它们拿出来。” 安德鲁解开他总是挂在腰带上的小手电筒，递给朱迪。 “奶酪露易丝！”朱迪说。 “提醒我永远、永远、永远不要再让你说服我做任何事！”安德鲁回到前座。 他把“砰”塞进一个叫“泡泡”的小塑料袋里

Bag. The Bubble Bag would keep Thudd dry. Thudd was never supposed to get wet! Then Andrew took his blob and began to stretch it over his feet. He pulled it up to his waist, stretched it over his arms, and tugged it up to his neck. The Bubble Duds had pockets all over them. Andrew tucked Thudd into a little pocket over his chest and pressed the pocket closed. He put the Nose Pick into another pocket. Judy laughed. "You look like a big green frog," she said. "Come on, Judy," said Andrew. "Put on the Bubble Duds. Please." "Oh, all right," said Judy. She pulled the blob of Bubble Duds up over her clothes. "So how do we get out of here?" "Just press the button on the side of your seat," said Andrew. "Watch this!" He pulled the Bubble Duds over his head. Then he pressed the button on the side of his seat. FLAMP!

袋里。泡泡袋可以让泰德保持干燥。 泰德不应该被弄湿的！然后安得烈拿起那团水，把它伸到脚上。 他把它拉到腰上，拉到胳膊上，又拉到脖子上。 泡泡糖上到处都是口袋。 安德鲁把萨德塞进胸前的一个小口袋里，把口袋紧紧地合上。 他把鼻锥放进另一个口袋里。 朱迪笑了。“你看起来像一只绿色的大青蛙，”她说。 “来吧，朱迪，”安德鲁说。 “穿上泡泡衣。请。” “哦，好吧，”朱迪说。 她把那团泡泡糖拉到衣服上。 “那我们怎么离开这里？”“按一下你座位边上的按钮就行了。”安德鲁说。 “看这个!”他把泡泡糖套在头上。 然后他按下了座位边上的按钮。 FLAMP !
