1 Trapped!

Chapter 1 TEAPPED Now I know what it feels like to be a fish! thought Andrew Dubble. That was because Andrew's underwater vehicle, the Water Bug, was tangled in a huge net at the bottom of the ocean. On the other side of the net were craggy mountains of coral and fish that looked like slices of a rainbow. "Cheese Louise!" said Andrew's thirteen-year- old cousin, Judy. She was sitting next to Andrew in the passenger seat. "Maybe Soggy Bob set a

现在我知道鱼是什么感觉了！安德鲁·达布尔想。 这是因为安德鲁的水下航行器“水虫”被海底的一张大网缠住了。 网的另一边是崎岖的珊瑚山和鱼，看起来像彩虹的碎片。 “奶酪露易丝！”安德鲁十三岁的表妹朱迪说。 她坐在安德鲁旁边的副驾驶座上。 “也许是湿鲍勃设置了一个

trap to keep us from getting to the giant squids first!" Soggy Bob Sloggins wanted to capture a giant squid and turn it into giant squidwiches. Andrew and Judy were trying to stop him. "Maybe the Water Bug can rip through the net," said Andrew. He pushed the gas pedal to the floor. VROOOOOOOM! The Water Bug used to be a Volkswagen Beetle. It had a glass floor, a sharky fin on its roof, and a bathroom in the backseat! The Water Bug whammed into the net, bounced off, and thumped into the ocean floor. Now the Water Bug's paddle wheels were caught in the net! A herd of tiny yellow box-shaped fish fluttered up to the windshield. Their big blue eyes peered in curiously at Andrew and Judy. meep… "Try Octo-Tool," came a squeaky voice. It was Andrew's little silver robot and best friend, Thudd. He was sitting in a pocket of Andrew's underwater suit. "Good idea, Thudd," said Andrew.

陷阱，不让我们先到大乌贼那里！”湿透的鲍勃·斯洛金斯想要捕捉一只巨型乌贼，把它做成巨大的三明治。 安德鲁和朱迪试图阻止他。 “也许水虫能把网撕破，”安德鲁说。 他把油门踩到地板上。 VROOOOOOOM !水虫曾经是一辆大众甲壳虫。 它的地板是玻璃的，车顶上有一个鲨鱼鳍，后座上有一个浴室！水虫撞到网里，弹了回来，砰地一声落在海底。 现在水虫的桨轮被网缠住了！一群黄色的盒子形小鱼扑腾着游向挡风玻璃。 他们那双蓝色的大眼睛好奇地盯着安德鲁和朱迪。 “试试奥克托工具。”一个尖细的声音传来。 那是安德鲁的银色小机器人，也是他最好的朋友，泰德。 他坐在安德鲁潜水服的口袋里。 “好主意，泰德。”安德鲁说。

He pressed a black button on the dashboard. "Untangle Water Bug," said Andrew into a microphone near the steering wheel. glurp… "Will try," came the voice of the Water Bug. The hood of the Water Bug popped open and the gray tentacles of the Octo-Tool slithered out. They snatched at the net and tugged. But the Water Bug wasn't coming free. Instead, the Octo-Tool's tentacles got tangled in the net, too! glurp… "Alert! Alert!" said the Water Bug. "Octo-Tool trouble. Tentacles trapped!" "Uh-oh," said Andrew. "Looks like we'll have to get out and do it ourselves." Judy groaned. "Cheese Louise! The last time we left the Water Bug, we got swallowed by a whale!" Andrew wasn't listening to her. "While we're out there," he said, "we can get the lava boogers out of the Super-Sniffer."

他按下仪表盘上的一个黑色按钮。 “解开水虫，”安德鲁对着方向盘旁边的麦克风说。 “我试试。”水虫的声音传来。 水虫的引擎盖突然打开，八爪怪的灰色触手滑了出来。 他们抓住网，使劲拉。 但是水虫不是免费来的。 相反，章鱼的触手也被网缠住了！glurp…”警报!警惕！”水虫说。 “Octo-Tool麻烦。触须被困!”“哦哦，”安德鲁说。 “看来我们得出去自己动手了。” 朱迪呻吟着。“奶酪路易斯!上次我们离开水虫的时候，我们被一条鲸鱼吞了！”安德鲁没有听她说话。 “当我们在那里的时候，”他说，“我们可以把熔岩鼻屎从超级嗅探器里弄出来。”

On the hood of the Water Bug was a nose-like invention called the Super-Sniffer. It tracked things in the water the way a dog tracks things on land, by smell. Andrew and Judy needed the Super-Sniffer to find the giant squids. They had to get to them before Soggy Bob! But the Super-Sniffer was clogged up with lava boogers from an underwater volcano. "Look!" said Andrew. He pointed to a part of the net ahead of them. It was squirming. "Something else is caught in the net." meep… "Lotsa animals get caught in old fishing net," said Thudd. "Seals. Turtles. Dolphins." Judy's eyes got wide. "You mean a dolphin could be trapped in there?" she said. "Yoop! Yoop! Yoop!" said Thudd. Judy sighed. "We've got to get out there right away and see what it is." Judy and Andrew pulled their Bubble Duds helmets over their heads. Their Bubble Duds were bumpy green suits that let Andrew and Judy

在水虫的引擎盖上有一个类似鼻子的发明，叫做超级嗅探器。 它在水里追踪东西就像狗在陆地上追踪东西一样，靠嗅觉。 安德鲁和朱迪需要超级嗅探器来寻找巨型乌贼。 他们必须赶在湿鲍勃之前找到它们！但超级嗅探器被水下火山喷出的熔岩鼻屎堵塞了。 “看！”安德鲁说。他指着他们前面的一部分网。 它在蠕动。“有别的东西被网缠住了。” “很多动物都被旧渔网缠住了。” “海豹。海龟。海豚。” 朱迪睁大了眼睛。“你是说海豚可能被困在里面？”她说。 “Yoop !Yoop !呜！” 朱迪叹了口气。“我们必须马上去那里看看到底是什么。” 朱迪和安德鲁把他们的泡泡玩具头盔戴在头上。 他们的泡泡衣是凹凸不平的绿色套装，让安德鲁和朱迪

breathe underwater. There were headphones inside the helmets that let them talk to each other, too. Andrew made sure Thudd's Bubble Bag was tightly closed. Thudd was never supposed to get wet! Then Andrew sealed Thudd inside a front pocket of his Bubble Duds. Andrew and Judy pressed buttons on the sides of their seats. FLAMP!

在水下呼吸。头盔里还有耳机，可以让他们互相交谈。 安德鲁确保泰德的泡泡袋紧闭。 泰德不应该被弄湿的！然后安德鲁把砰德封在他的泡泡衣的前口袋里。 安德鲁和朱迪按下了座位两侧的按钮。 FLAMP !

Their seats flipped over, and they popped outside the Water Bug. Peering through the green water, Andrew saw that the net was drooping from strange tall shapes. They reminded him of the ribs of a dinosaur. Andrew and Judy swam over to the squirming bundle in the tangled net. Suddenly Judy stopped. "Wait a minute," she said. "What if it's a shark?"

他们的座位翻了过来，跳出了水虫酒吧。 透过碧绿的海水，安德鲁看到渔网从一些奇怪的高大的形状垂下来。 它们让他想起了恐龙的肋骨。 安德鲁和朱迪游向缠在一起的网里蠕动的包裹。 突然，朱迪停了下来。“等一下，”她说。 “如果是鲨鱼呢？”
