Chapter 6

6 RANK EINSTEIN TIGHTENS THE LAST BOLT ON KLANK'S TWO ORIGINAL F F arms. Klink oils Klank's two original legs. Klank sighs. "I liked my new arms and legs." "OK," says Frank, "so the new and improved skeletal system didn't work out. But how about this?" Frank pulls out a big canvas poster, unrolls it, and pins it on the Wall of Science. "The muscular system. Humans have over six hundred and fifty muscles. Some automatic —like our heart and breathing muscles. Others controlled by thoughts, for movement."

爱因斯坦把克兰克原来的两个F臂上的最后一个螺栓拧紧。 Klink给Klank原来的两条腿上油。 Klank叹了一口气。“我喜欢我的新胳膊和腿。” “好吧，”弗兰克说，“所以新的和改进的骨骼系统没有成功。 但是这个怎么样？”弗兰克拿出一张大帆布海报，把它展开，把它钉在科学墙上。 “肌肉系统。人类有超过650块肌肉。 有些是自动的，比如我们的心脏和呼吸肌肉。 另一些则被思想控制，为了运动。”

Klink hums and offers his latest research. "The strongest human muscle is the masseter. It

Klink哼哼着，提供他的最新研究成果。 “人类最强壮的肌肉是咬肌。 它

moves the jaw. And the biggest human muscle is the gluteus maximus. It keeps the human body upright. Also powers running and jumping. This is your butt muscle." "Ha-ha-ha!" beeps Klank. "Now what is so funny?" asks Klink. "You said butt muscle! Ha-ha-ha!" Klink checks his research. "Yes, that is correct. The gluteus maximus is also called the butt. And it is a muscle." Klank falls on the couch laughing. "Ha-haha!" "Ooooooooo," hums Klink. Frank ignores Klink and Klank. Thinking out loud, he says, "Muscles are attached to bones by tendons. A lot of muscles work in pairs. Like in Janegoodall's arm. To bend the arm, the bicep tightens and the tricep relaxes.

移动下巴。人类最大的肌肉是臀大肌。 它使人体保持直立。 也能跑和跳。 这是你屁股上的肌肉。” “哈哈哈！”克兰克嘟嘟地说。“什么事这么好笑？”Klink问。 “你说屁股肌肉！”哈哈哈!”Klink检查了他的研究。 “是的，没错。臀大肌也被称为臀部。 这是一种肌肉。”克兰克笑着倒在沙发上。 “哈哈哈!”“哦哦哦，”link哼着。 弗兰克忽略了Klink和Klank。 他自言自语道：“肌肉是通过肌腱连接到骨头上的。 很多肌肉都是成对运动的。 就像在珍妮古德尔的臂弯里。 弯曲手臂时，肱二头肌收紧，肱三头肌放松。

To straighten the arm, the tricep tightens and the bicep relaxes." "So bigger and stronger muscles could also pitch the ball faster," figures Watson. Janegoodall studies the muscular system chart. "Again, brilliant... except for the fact that we have exactly one day before the tryouts. And I don't have time to lift weights to make my muscles bigger." "I've got it!" says Watson. "We switch your small bicep... with your large gluteus maximus... for a Super-Power Butt-Muscle Arm!" "Ha-ha-ha!" Klank giggles again. Janegoodall whacks both Watson and Klank with her Midville Mud Hens hat. "Very funny. But we need a real idea for more power. Like —right now!" "OK," says Frank Einstein. "Back to the drawing board."

要伸直手臂，肱三头肌收紧，肱二头肌放松。” “因此，更大更强壮的肌肉也可以更快地投球，”沃森推测道。 Janegoodall研究肌肉系统图表。 “再次辉煌…除了离选拔赛只有一天了。 而且我没有时间去举重让我的肌肉变大。” “我知道了！”华生说。 “我们把你的小二头肌…… 你的臀大肌… 一个超级强大的屁股肌肉手臂！”“哈哈哈!”克兰克又咯咯地笑了。 janeggoodall用她的Midville Mud Hens帽子打了Watson和Klank。 “非常有趣。但我们需要一个真正的想法来获得更多的能量。 就像——现在！”“好吧，”弗兰克·爱因斯坦说。 “回到绘图板。”
