7 The Big Bang!

Chapter 7 THE BIG BANG! "WHAT?" cried Judy. "Holy moly!" said Andrew. bong… "But if we arrive a bit after the universe is born, there's a small chance we may survive." Judy rolled her eyes. "Well, that really cheers me up," she said. bong… "If we manage to stop in time, the light will be brighter than billions of suns. You will need special goggles." A door under the control panel sprang open. Two pairs of goggles fell out. The lenses were

第7章大爆炸！“什么？”朱迪叫道。 “天哪！”安德鲁说。“但如果我们在宇宙诞生后不久到达，我们就有很小的机会幸存下来。” 朱迪翻了个白眼。“嗯，这真的让我很高兴，”她说。 如果我们能及时停下来，这些光将比数十亿个太阳还要亮。 你需要特殊的护目镜。” 控制面板下面的一扇门突然打开了。 两副护目镜掉了出来。 镜片是

thick as bricks. bong… "Hurry, hurry, HURRY!" said the Time- A-Tron. "We are terribly close." Andrew slid the goggles over his head. Judy was pulling on her goggles when her eyes suddenly got wide. "Wait a minute," she said. She reached for her neck and pulled off a thin silver chain. The chain was looped through a pearly shell that Judy had found on the beach in Hawai'i. The edge of the shell was thin and sharp. Judy handed the shell to Thudd. "Try this," she said, slipping the goggles over her eyes. meep… "Okey-dokey," said Thudd. He poked the edge of the shell around the button. meep… "Got it!" said Thudd, scooping up the last bit of fudge. He held the shell out to Judy. The Worm-Drive button popped up!

厚如砖。“快，快，快！”时间战神说。 “我们已经非常接近了。”安德鲁把护目镜戴在头上。 朱迪正戴着护目镜，突然眼睛睁得大大的。 “等一下，”她说。 她伸手到脖子上，扯下一条细银链。 这条链子绕在一个珍珠贝壳上，那是朱迪在夏威夷的海滩上发现的。 贝壳的边缘又薄又尖。 朱迪把贝壳递给了泰德。 “试试这个，”她边说边把护目镜套在眼睛上。 “好吧，好吧。” 他把外壳的边缘戳到按钮周围。 “明白了！”泰德说着，舀起最后一点软糖。 他把贝壳递给朱迪。 蠕虫驱动按钮弹出！

"Super-duper pooper-scooper!" shouted Andrew. The rainbow colors disappeared. Even through the brick-thick goggles, Andrew could see the light that the Time-A-Tron had warned them about —light brighter than a billion suns! All at once, it was horribly hot inside the Time- A-Tron. Andrew got so wet with sweat, he felt like a boiled potato. I'm melting! he thought. "Where are we?" he asked, woozy with heat. bong… "We are at three minutes after the universe began," said the Time-A-Tron. "It is incredibly lucky that we stopped here.

“超级狗屎铲！”安德鲁叫道。 彩虹的颜色消失了。 即使透过砖厚的护目镜，安德鲁也能看到时间战神警告过他们的光——比十亿个太阳还亮的光！突然间，时间战神里热得可怕。 安德鲁浑身都是汗，他觉得自己像个煮熟的土豆。 我融化!他想。“我们在哪儿？”他问，热得头昏眼花。 “我们现在是宇宙开始后的三分钟。”时间战神说。 “我们能停在这里真是太幸运了。

"But we have a terrible problem. The Time-A- Tron cannot find any atoms of Montana. That is because atoms do not exist yet. Let us hope the Time-A-Tron can find just a tiny particle of Montana. Then the buttons will blink green and we will be able to leave." "Humph," said Judy. "I'm hotter than a Thanksgiving turkey my hair smells like it's burning, and we're stuck at the beginning of the universe. So tell me how we're lucky." bong… "It is only a billion degrees out there now," said the Time-A-Tron.

“但我们有一个可怕的问题。 时间a - Tron找不到蒙大拿的任何原子。 这是因为原子还不存在。 让我们祈祷时空战神能找到蒙大拿的一小片吧。 然后按钮会绿灯闪烁，我们就可以离开了。” “哼，”朱迪说。“我比感恩节火鸡还热，我的头发闻起来像在燃烧，我们被困在宇宙的开端。” 所以告诉我我们有多幸运。” “现在外面只有10亿华氏度，”时间战神说。

meep… "Ten million times hotter than boiling water!" said Thudd. bong… "Three minutes ago, it was millions of times hotter than that!" said the Time-A-Tron. "Why is everything so hot?" asked Andrew, shaking a shower of sweat out of his hair. bong… "Our universe began in an explosion that is beyond imagination," said the Time-A- Tron. "I know about that!" said Andrew. "It's called the Big Bang." bong… "Yes, Master Andrew," said the Time- A-Tron. "The Big Bang created enormous heat and energy. But the strangest part is this: The thing that exploded was smaller than an atom. From that tiny thing came everything in the universe—the galaxies, the stars, the planets." "Cheese Louise," said Judy, fanning her very red face. "That's super-ridiculous! I don't believe it!" meep… "What Time-A-Tron say is true," said Thudd.

“比沸水热一千万倍！” “三分钟前，温度是现在的几百万倍！” “为什么所有的东西都这么热？”安德鲁问，一边抖掉头发上的汗水。 “我们的宇宙开始于一场超乎想象的爆炸，”时间战神说。 “我知道！”安德鲁说。 “这叫做宇宙大爆炸。” “是的，安德鲁少爷。”时间战神说。 “大爆炸产生了巨大的热量和能量。 但最奇怪的是：爆炸的东西比原子还小。 宇宙中的一切——星系、恒星、行星——都来自于这个小东西。” “奶酪露易丝，”朱迪说，扇着她通红的脸。 “这是super-ridiculous !“时间战神说的都是真的。”

bong… "Thank you, Thudd," said the Time-A- Tron. "Three minutes after the Big Bang, the only things that exist are parts of atoms and light." "This light is awful!" said Judy. "Even with these goggles on, it's making my head hurt!" "You mean there's no stuff to see out there?" asked Andrew. "No stars? No planets?" bong… "It will be two hundred million years before there will be things to see in the universe." Judy folded her arms across her chest and glared at Andrew through her goggles. Drops of sweat were dripping off her nose. "Of all the awful things you've ever gotten us into, Andrew, this is the awfullest!" Andrew shrugged his shoulders. "We have to find Uncle Al and Professor Wilde," he said. "But I guess putting fudge in my pocket wasn't such a good idea." meep… "Fast-Forward button blinking green!" said Thudd. bong… "Ah, but not the Worm-Drive button," said the Time-A-Tron.

“谢谢你，砰，”时间战神说。 “大爆炸后三分钟，唯一存在的东西是原子和光的一部分。” “这光线太可怕了！”朱迪说。 “即使戴着护目镜，我的头还是很疼！”“你是说外面没有东西可看？”安德鲁问。 “没有明星?“没有行星？”砰……“要过两亿年，宇宙中才会有东西可看。” 朱迪双臂交叉在胸前，透过护目镜瞪着安德鲁。 汗水从她的鼻子上滴下来。 “在你给我们带来的所有可怕的事情中，安德鲁，这是最可怕的！”安德鲁耸了耸肩。 “我们必须找到艾尔叔叔和王尔德教授，”他说。 “但我想把软糖放在口袋里不是个好主意。” “快进键闪绿了！” “啊，但不是那个蠕虫驱动按钮。”时间战神说。
