4 Sneeze of Doom

SNEEZE OF DOOM ARE YOU PREPARED TO BE SLIMED?

末日喷嚏，你准备好被黏在身上了吗？

When Stink got home from school, he took Mr. McGoo upstairs. Mr. McGoo looked a little raisiny— as wrinkled as a monkey ball. "I know you had a bad day at school," Stink said. "But look at the bright side. At least YOU don't have any homework." To cheer him up, Stink told Mr. McGoo, "Riley's coming over." Riley Rottenberger could be annoying, for sure, but at least she was a good partner in slime. In baby talk, Stink said, "Riley likes slime mold. Yes she does."

臭臭从学校回到家，把麦高先生带到楼上。 麦高先生看起来有点生气——皱得像个猴子球。 “我知道你今天在学校过得很糟糕，”臭狗说。 “但看看好的一面。 至少你没有家庭作业。” 为了让臭臭高兴起来，他对麦高先生说：“莱利要来了。” 莱利·罗滕伯格确实很烦人，但至少她是一个很好的黏泥搭档。 在婴儿谈话中，臭臭说：“莱利喜欢黏菌。 是的，她有。”

"Slime time!" Riley said when she got to Stink's house. Stink moved his light-up globe in closer so they could inspect their pets. "My slime mold is way bigger than your slime mold," she said in a braggy voice. "Don't listen to her, Mr. McGoo," whispered Stink. "I like how you gave your slime mold a cool name," said Riley.

“黏液时间!”莱丽到臭臭家时说。 臭臭把他的发光地球仪移近了，这样他们就可以检查他们的宠物了。 “我的黏液霉菌比你的黏液霉菌大得多，”她用一种自夸的声音说。 “别听她的，麦高先生。”臭臭小声说。 “我喜欢你给黏液霉菌起的酷名字，”莱利说。

"Didn't you name yours?" asked Stink. "Um," said Riley. "Sure. Its name is... um... Mrs. McGoo." "Gross!" said Stink. "Our slime molds are not married." "Fine. Then I'll change her name to Princess Slime Mold." "How did you get Princess Slime Mold to grow so much?" Stink asked. "Easy cheesy," said Riley. "I fed her. And you have to do stuff that makes her happy. Like they had us do for the animals at that farm we visited on our field trip." Stink remembered. "Oh, yeah. We read books to the chickens and sang songs to the cows." So Stink and Riley sang "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Slime" to Mr. McGoo and Princess Slime Mold. They read Squish Squash Moo till the cows came home.

“你没给你的起名字吗？”臭臭问。 “嗯，”莱莉说。“当然。它的名字是…… 嗯…McGoo太太。”“恶心！”臭臭说。 “我们的黏菌没有结婚。” “很好。然后我就把她的名字改成黏液霉菌公主。” “你是怎么让黏液霉菌公主长这么多的？”臭问道。 “简单的俗气。”莱利说。 “我喂了她。你得做些让她开心的事。 就像他们让我们为我们实地考察时参观的那个农场的动物做的那样。” 臭记住。“哦,是的。 我们给鸡读书，给牛唱歌。” 于是臭臭和莱利给麦高先生和黏液霉菌公主唱了《一闪一闪小黏液》。 他们一直读到奶牛回家。

Stink told a story about the time he got 21,280 jawbreakers in the mail for free. Stink told a joke. "What do molds, mucus, and big sisters have in common?" "What?" asked Riley. "They're all slime," said Stink. He laughed himself silly. "I bet Mr. McGoo will grow like crazy now." "I think you're good to goo," said Riley. "I mean go." They started into fits of laughter all over again.

史迪克讲了一个他免费收到21280块牙齿的故事。 臭臭讲了个笑话。“霉菌、粘液和姐姐有什么共同之处？”“什么？”莱莉问。 “它们都是黏液。”臭臭说。 他笑傻了。“我敢打赌麦高先生现在会长得快疯了。” “我觉得你对我很好，”莱利说。 “我是说去吧。”他们又笑了起来。

"Don't forget to feed him." Riley unzipped her backpack. "I brought snacks!" She held up an apple and a bag of cheese doodles. Stink took a bite of mealy apple while Riley ripped open the bag of munchy-crunchy cheese doodles. A wonderful waft of cheesy air puffed out of the bag. Crunch-munch-crunch. "Cheese doodles sure are loud," said Stink. "Yep," said Riley, munching. "Cheese doodles sure smell milky and creamy," said Stink. "Yep," said Riley, crunching.

“别忘了喂它。” 莱利拉开背包的拉链。 “我带了零食！”她举起一个苹果和一袋奶酪涂鸦。 臭臭咬了一口粉状的苹果，莱莉撕开了那袋脆脆的奶酪糊。 一股奇妙的干酪气从袋子里吹了出来。 Crunch-munch-crunch。“奶酪涂鸦确实很吵，”臭臭说。 “是啊。”莱莉说着，大嚼着。 “奶酪涂鸦闻起来确实像牛奶和奶油，”臭臭说。 “是的。”莱利说，嘎吱嘎吱地嚼着。
