7 Feeling Blue

Chapter 7 FEELING BLUE "Uh-oh!" said Andrew. He stopped swimming. "I guess I'd make it angry if I shoved it off," said Judy. Plaaap! A blue-ringed octopus flopped onto Judy's face mask. Plaaap! Another one plopped onto her shoulder! "Cheese Louise!" said Judy. "It's raining blue- ringed octopuses!" meep… "Drewd and Oody not move!" said Thudd.

“哎呀！”安德鲁说。 他停止了游泳。“我想如果我把它推开，它会生气的，”朱迪说。 Plaaap !一只蓝圈章鱼扑通一声落在朱迪的口罩上。 Plaaap !另一只扑通一声落在她的肩膀上！“奶酪露易丝！”朱迪说。 “下蓝环章鱼的雨了！”“德鲁和乌迪不许动！”

Thudd crept out of Andrew's pocket and let himself fall to the coral below. He scuttled over to the anemones. He picked up a big red anemone and headed back. Thudd climbed up Andrew's Bubble Duds until he got to his knee, where one of the octopuses had landed. Thudd waved the anemone at the octopus. It got up on its legs and moved toward Thudd. But as soon as Thudd touched it with the anemone, it jetted off! Thudd climbed to Andrew's elbow and shook the anemone at another octopus. It pulled back and sped away. Thudd jumped over to Judy. He crept up to each octopus and waggled the anemone. The octopuses left in a hurry. Thudd went back and forth between Andrew and Judy until all the octopuses were gone. "Thank you, Thudd!" said Judy. She picked him up and held him in front of her face mask. "I'd

砰砰从安德鲁的口袋里爬出来，落到下面的珊瑚上。 他快步跑向海葵。 他捡起一个大红海葵，往回走。 砰砰爬上了安德鲁的泡泡玩具，一直爬到膝盖上，一只章鱼就落在那里。 砰地向章鱼挥动海葵。 它站起来，朝萨德走去。 但砰一用海葵碰它，它就飞了起来！塔德爬到安德鲁的胳膊肘上，对着另一只章鱼摇晃海葵。 它向后拉，疾驰而去。 砰砰跳向朱迪。 他蹑手蹑脚地走近每只章鱼，摇着海葵。 章鱼匆忙地离开了。 泰德在安德鲁和朱迪之间来回走动，直到所有的章鱼都消失了。 “谢谢你，泰德！”朱迪说。 她把他抱起来，把他放在她的面罩前。 “我

give you a big kiss if I weren't wearing a face mask and you weren't inside a plastic bag!" Thudd's face screen went pink. "Thudd, that was amazing!" said Andrew. "How did you do it?" Thudd pointed to a little patch of anemones that seemed to be creeping across a rock. Andrew and Judy leaned down to look closer. The anemones were actually stuck to a shell. Small brown claws were moving it along. "It's a hermit crab," said Judy. meep… "Octopus like to eat hermit crab," said Thudd. "But octopus not like anemone sting. Hermit crab stick anemone on shell to keep octopus away. Drewd and Oody got to put on anemones, too."

如果我没有戴口罩，你也没有在塑料袋里，我就会给你一个大大的吻！”泰德的脸屏幕变成了粉红色。 “砰，太神奇了！”安德鲁说。 “你是怎么做到的？”砰德指着一小片海葵，那片海葵似乎正爬过一块岩石。 安德鲁和朱迪俯下身仔细看。 海葵实际上是粘在贝壳上的。 棕色的小爪子牵着它走。 “是寄居蟹，”朱迪说。 “章鱼喜欢吃寄居蟹。” “但是章鱼不喜欢海葵的刺。 寄居蟹把海葵粘在壳上，防止章鱼靠近。 德鲁和伍迪也戴上了海葵。”

They went over to the patch of anemones, carefully plucked up some big ones, and attached them to their Bubble Duds. "We look totally stupid," said Judy. "The octopuses will be laughing so hard, they won't be able to bite us. Let's get going!" "Okay," said Andrew. "But I wish I knew why they attacked us." Andrew and Judy paddled on. "Look!" said Judy. She pointed to a little herd of sea horses fluttering toward a tunnel on the right. It was the direction Andrew and Judy needed to go, so they followed.

他们走到那片海葵地，小心翼翼地摘了一些大海葵，把它们粘在他们的泡泡衣上。 “我们看起来很傻，”朱迪说。 “章鱼会笑得很厉害，它们咬不了我们。 我们走吧！”“好吧，”安德鲁说。 “但我希望知道他们为什么袭击我们。” 安德鲁和朱迪继续划。 “看！”朱迪说。她指了指右边一群海马，它们正在向一条隧道扇动。 这是安德鲁和朱迪要去的方向，所以他们跟着去了。

The tunnel opened into a large rocky room. At one end was a heavy iron door. A sign on the door said: KEEP OUTTA HERE! THIS MEANS YOU! SOGGY BOB SLOGGINS Andrew's mouth fell open. "He's everywhere!" said Judy. "We've got to find out what he's up to," said Andrew. They swam to the door. Andrew unlatched it and pulled it open. It was dark inside. Judy snapped on the flashlight. The beam of light showed a big cage made of woven wire. "Yowzers!" said Andrew. The cage was filled with octopuses!

隧道通到一个大的岩石房间。 门的一端是一扇沉重的铁门。 门上的牌子上写着：请勿入内！这就是你！湿漉漉的鲍勃·斯洛金斯安德鲁张大了嘴。 “到处都是他！”朱迪说。 “我们得弄清楚他在干什么。”安德鲁说。 他们游到门口。安德鲁打开门闩，把它拉开。 里面很黑。朱迪啪的一声打开手电筒。 那束光显示了一个用金属丝编织的大笼子。 “尤尔斯！”安德鲁说。笼子里全是章鱼！
