6 The Day Terry Flushed Me Down the Toilet

The Day Terry Flushed Me Down theToilet

特里把我冲进马桶的那天

"Hey, Andy," said Terry, "do you want me to flush you down the toilet?" "No thanks," I said. "Are you sure?" "Pretty sure, yeah." "But haven't you always wondered what it would be like to be flushed down the toilet?" "No, not really," I said. "Go on," said Terry. "Just one little flush." "I can't," I said. "I'm busy." "Busy doing what?" said Terry. "Busy not being flushed down the toilet," I said. "Well, too bad," said Terry. "Because I'm going to do it anyway." "NO!!!" I shouted. But it was too late. The next thing I knew, Terry had picked me up, put me headfirst in the toilet, and pushed the flush button.

“嘿，安迪，”特里说，“你想让我把你冲进厕所吗？”“不，谢谢，”我说。 “你确定吗？”“非常肯定，是的。” “可是你不是一直想知道被冲进马桶是什么感觉吗？”“不，不完全是，”我说。 “说下去，”特里说。“只要一点点同花顺。” “我不能，”我说。“我很忙”。 “忙什么？”特里问。 “忙着不被冲进厕所，”我说。 “唉，太糟糕了，”特里说。 “因为无论如何我都要这么做。” “没有! !”我叫道。但为时已晚。 接下来我所知道的就是特里把我抱起来，把我头朝下放进马桶里，然后按了冲水按钮。

After a long, watery ride, I opened my eyes to find myself at the bottom of the ocean. I could tell it was the bottom of the ocean because there was water everywhere, a lot of sand, and a whole bunch of weird- looking fish.Oh yeah, and a sign that said:

在水中坐了很长一段时间后，我睁开眼睛，发现自己已经到了海底。 我能看出来那是海底，因为到处都是水，有很多沙子，还有一大堆奇怪的鱼。哦，是的，还有一个牌子写着：

I swam around looking for the exit until, in the distance, I saw a magnificent sandcastle rising up from the sea floor. It was decorated with seaweed, shells, sticks, bottle tops, and bits of broken glass, and on the front door there was a sign that said: FREE AIR.

我游来游去寻找出口，直到远处，我看到一座宏伟的沙堡从海底拔地而起。 它用海藻、贝壳、树枝、瓶盖和碎玻璃碎片装饰着，前门上有一块牌子，上面写着：免费空气。

I'd been holding my breath ever since I was flushed, so the idea of any air— free or not— was very tempting.

自从我脸红后，我就一直屏住呼吸，所以任何空气——不管有没有——的想法都很诱人。

I swam through the door into an air lock, where there was no water— just air. Cool, fresh, free air! I took a deep breath. And another. And another. I was just about to take another when I heard a slithering noise behind me. I spun around to see a terrifying sea monster: (If you're like most of our readers, you'll know that

我从门里游进了一个气闸，那里没有水，只有空气。 凉爽、新鲜、自由的空气！我深吸了一口气。 和另一个。和另一个。我正要再喝一杯，这时我听到身后有滑动的声音。 我转过身来，看到了一个可怕的海怪：(如果你和我们的大多数读者一样，你会知道的
