5 Floorp!

Chapter 5 FLOORP! "Holy moly!" said Andrew. "More sharks!" "Noop! Noop! Noop!" said Thudd. "Sharks not like to swim with other sharks. Dolphins here!" "Wowzers!" said Andrew. "It's a whole herd of them!" meep… "Called pod of dolphins," said Thudd. Andrew and Judy turned to get a better look. Most of the dolphins were as big as grown-up humans. But there was one very small dolphin swimming with them. "It's a dolphin baby!" said Judy. meep… "Dolphin calf," said Thudd.

第五章地板！“天哪！”安德鲁说。 “更多的鲨鱼!”“等待!等待!不！” “鲨鱼不喜欢和其他鲨鱼一起游泳。 海豚在这里!”“哇！”安德鲁说。 “这是一群海豚！” 安德鲁和朱迪转身想看得更清楚些。 大多数海豚和成年人一样大。 但有一只非常小的海豚和他们一起游泳。 “是海豚宝宝！”朱迪说。 “小海豚，”泰德说。

The shark twisted away from the windshield and started swimming toward the dolphins—right toward the calf! The Water Bug's outside microphone was picking up strange sounds—clicks and whistles and squawks. meep… "Dolphins talking!" said Thudd. The big dolphins surrounded the little one. Two of the biggest dolphins broke away from the pod. They charged at the shark! They rammed its belly with their long, beaklike noses. In a flash, the shark circled behind the two dolphins. The dolphins sped toward the Water Bug. They dove under it. The shark was closing in! Judy clapped her hand over her mouth. "The shark will get the dolphins," she said. "We've got to do something!" meep… "Press Bug-a-Boo button!" said Thudd, pointing to a red button on the dashboard. Andrew pressed it.

鲨鱼从挡风玻璃上扭开，开始向海豚游去——就向小海豚游去！水虫外面的麦克风听到了奇怪的声音——咔哒声、口哨声和吱吱声。 “海豚在说话！” 大海豚包围了小海豚。 两只最大的海豚脱离了海豚群。 他们冲向鲨鱼！它们用喙状的长鼻子撞击它的肚子。 刹那间，鲨鱼在两只海豚身后盘旋。 海豚们向水虫疾驰而去。 他们钻到树下。鲨鱼正在逼近！朱迪用手捂住嘴。 “鲨鱼会吃掉海豚的，”她说。 “按‘炸虫’按钮！”萨德指着仪表盘上的一个红色按钮说。 安德鲁按了按。

Floorp! came a sound from outside the Water Bug. Something that looked like a clown's collar popped out from behind the Water Bug's doors. It had red-and-orange stripes and big black spots. The Bug-a-Boo waggled back and forth furiously in front of the shark's face. It reminded Andrew of a lizard he had seen on a nature show. "Awesome!" said Andrew. meep… "Bug-a-Boo make Water Bug look big, big, big!" said Thudd. "Make Water Bug look scary!" The shark stopped and shook its head from side to side. It flipped its tail back and forth like an

Floorp !从水虫外面传来一个声音。 一个看起来像小丑衣领的东西从水虫的门后跳出来。 它有红橙相间的条纹和大黑点。 虫布在鲨鱼面前狂怒地来回摇摆。 这让安德鲁想起了他在自然节目中看到的蜥蜴。 “太棒了！”安德鲁说。“Bug-a- boo让水虫看起来很大、很大、很大！” “让水虫看起来很可怕！”鲨鱼停了下来，摇了摇头。 它像一只猫一样前后摇着尾巴

angry cat. Then it dove deep and disappeared. Andrew pressed the Bug-a-Boo button again. Floorp! The Bug-a-Boo rolled itself back into a groove behind the doors of the Water Bug. "Whew!" said Andrew, shaking his head. "At least something on the Water Bug is working," said Judy. The two dolphins swam toward the Water Bug. The bigger one came right up to Judy's window. Its beaky mouth was open. meep… "Dolphin is mammal," said Thudd. "Like Drewd and Oody!" "It looks like he's laughing!" said Judy. She patted her hand on the glass. "I love dolphins. They're really smart. Maybe he understands that I'm saying hi."

愤怒的猫。然后它潜入了深海，消失了。 安德鲁又按下了“Bug-a-Boo”按钮。 Floorp !虫布把自己滚回了水虫门后的一个凹槽里。 “呼！”安德鲁摇着头说。 “至少水虫上有些东西在工作，”朱迪说。 两只海豚朝水虫游去。 较大的那颗正好飞到朱迪的窗前。 它的嘴张着。“海豚是哺乳动物，”泰德说。 “就像德鲁和乌迪一样！”“看起来他在笑！”朱迪说。 她用手拍了拍杯子。 “我喜欢海豚。他们真的很聪明。 也许他明白我在跟他打招呼。”

"Look at his tail," said Andrew. "It looks like something took a bite out of it." Thudd waved at the dolphin. meep… "Hiya, Nahu!" Thudd squeaked. "Why did you call him Nahu?" asked Judy. meep… "Nahu is Hawaiian word for 'bite,'" said Thudd. The dolphins were making whistling sounds. meep… "See hole at top of dolphin head?" said Thudd. "Called blowhole. Dolphin use blowhole to breathe. Dolphin use blowhole to make sounds. To talk. Dolphin talk got lotsa clicks and whistles.

“看它的尾巴。”安德鲁说。 “看起来像是被什么东西咬了一口。” 砰砰向海豚挥手。 “嗨，纳胡！”Thudd发出“吱吱”的响声。 “你为什么叫他纳胡？”朱迪问。 “那胡在夏威夷语里是‘咬’的意思，”泰德说。 海豚发出哨声。 “看见海豚头顶上的洞了吗？” ”称为气孔。海豚用气孔呼吸。 海豚用喷水孔发出声音。 说话。海豚的谈话得到了很多的点击和哨声。

Every dolphin got own special whistle. Like name for human." The dolphins followed the Water Bug as it went deeper. The dial on the dashboard said they were fifty feet deep now. Suddenly Andrew glimpsed something strange through the Water Bug's glass floor. "Wowzers!" said Andrew, pointing below them. "It looks like a stony gray castle surrounded by a field of blue moose antlers!" Judy's eyes got wide. "Maybe it's Atlantis!" she said. Andrew's mouth dropped open. "I see a giant brain!"

每只海豚都有自己独特的哨子。 就像人类的名字。”海豚跟着水虫越游越深。 仪表盘上的刻度盘显示他们现在有50英尺深。 突然，安德鲁透过水虫的玻璃地板瞥见了一些奇怪的东西。 “哇！”安德鲁指着下面说。 “它看起来就像一座灰色的石头城堡，周围是一片蓝色的驼鹿角！”朱迪睁大了眼睛。 “也许是亚特兰蒂斯！”她说。 安德鲁张大了嘴。 “我看到一个巨大的大脑！”
