7 Intergalactic Hot Ice-cream Party

CHAPTER 7 INTERGALACTIC HOT ICE-CREAM PARTY The aliens weren't the only ones enjoying the hot ice-cream party—Jill and Terry joined in as well. They were jumping around, trying to catch fresh

第七章星际热冰淇淋派对外星人并不是唯一享受热冰淇淋派对的人——吉尔和特里也加入了。 它们跳来跳去，想抓住新鲜的

scoops of hot ice-cream in their hands and mouths just as fast as Edward could throw them. 'Attention all aliens!' announced the giant eyeball. 'May I remind you, this is an intergalactic death battle, not an intergalactic hot ice-cream party. Resume fighting immediately!' But the aliens took absolutely no notice—except for one, which looked up at the eyeball and spat hot ice-cream right at it. It was a direct hit—the hot ice-cream hit the eyeball right in the… well… right in the eyeball!

一勺一勺的热冰淇淋在他们的手里和嘴里，爱德华尽可能快地把它们扔出去。 “所有外星人请注意！”巨大的眼球宣布道。 “请允许我提醒你，这是一场星系间的死亡之战，不是星系间的热冰淇淋派对。 立即恢复战斗！”但是外星人完全没有注意到——除了一个，它抬头看着眼球，朝它吐了一口热冰淇淋。 这是一记直接命中——热冰淇淋击中了我的眼球，正中眼球！

It went all bloodshot and watery and was obviously in a lot of pain. That's when I had an idea. It was possibly one of the greatest ideas I've ever had. Possibly one of the greatest ideas anybody has ever had in the history of people having great ideas! I rode the elevator to the soap bubble blaster level and ran to the control panel. I selected an EXTRA BIG, EXTRA SOAPY, EXTRA BUBBLY SOAP BUBBLE BLIZZARD.

到处都是血丝，水汪汪的，显然很疼。 这时我有了一个主意。 这可能是我有过的最好的主意之一。 这可能是人类历史上最伟大的想法之一！我乘电梯到了肥皂泡爆破器那一层，跑到控制面板前。 我选了一个超大的，超大肥皂的，超大泡泡的暴风雪。

The machine rumbled and grumbled… shuddered and shook… and blasted out a blinding blizzard of bubbles— thousands and millions and billions of bubbles.

机器轰鸣着、嘟嘟着、颤抖着、摇晃着，喷出了令人眩目的泡沫风暴——成千上万、数百万、数十亿的泡沫。

If you've ever had a bath (and I hope you have!), then you would know that soap bubbles and eyeballs are natural enemies. So now a new battle started: an intergalactic giant-flying-eyeballs versus soap- bubbles battle!

如果你曾经洗过澡（我希望你洗过！），那么你就会知道肥皂泡和眼球是天敌。 所以现在一场新的战斗开始了：一场星系间巨人飞行眼球与肥皂泡之战！

And it was a battle the soap bubbles were clearly winning. The eyeballs—blinded and driven mad by the stinging—were just flying around, crashing into each other and bursting like huge bags of watery jelly (which is not surprising, really, because that's exactly what giant eyeballs are).

在这场战斗中，肥皂泡显然取得了胜利。 被蜇瞎了的眼球四处乱飞，互相撞击，像一大袋水汪汪的果冻一样炸裂（这并不奇怪，真的，因为这就是巨大的眼球）。
