CHAPTER 11 LET'S GO SHOPPING!
第11章我们去购物吧!
SHAKE! SHAKE! SHAKE! 'Wake up, Andy!' says Terry, shaking me roughly. Andy! Wake up!' 'What is it now, Terry?' I say. 'You promised to be quiet! I'm trying to get to sleep so the tooth fairy can come!'
动摇!动摇!动摇!“醒醒,安迪!”特里粗暴地摇着我说。 安迪!醒醒吧!“现在又怎么了,特里?”我说。 “你答应过不说话的!”我想睡觉,这样牙仙子就能来了!”
'You did fall asleep!' says Terry. 'And the tooth fairy did come!' 'Really?' I say. 'Yes,' says Terry, picking up the glass. 'Look!' At the bottom of the glass is a shiny, brand-new two- dollar coin.
“你确实睡着了!”特里说。 “牙仙子真的来了!”“真的吗?”我说。 “是的,”特里说,拿起杯子。 “看!”玻璃杯底部是一枚崭新的两美元硬币,闪闪发亮。
'It worked!' I say. 'We've got the two dollars we need. But how did you know?' 'I saw the whole thing!' says Terry. 'They made so much noise I was afraid they were going to wake you up.' 'They?' I say. 'I thought there was only one tooth fairy.'
“成功了!”我说。“我们得到了我们需要的两美元。 但你是怎么知道的?“我看到了整个过程!”特里说。 “他们太吵了,我担心他们会把你吵醒。“他们?”我说。 “我还以为只有一个牙仙子呢。”
'There is,' says Terry, breathlessly, 'but she had a whole gang of helpers and they had a little truck with a crane and a money-making machine just like ours— only it was tiny, and it didn't make honey. I followed them back to Fairyland and I saw them use your tooth as a firework to help celebrate the fairy queen's birthday!' 'Are you sure you didn't fall asleep as well?' I say. 'Sounds like you've been dreaming.' 'No, it's true,' says Terry. 'You can ask the readers. They were there too. They saw me see the whole thing!'
“有,”特里上气不接下气地说,“但她有一帮帮手,他们有一辆小卡车,上面有起重机,还有一台和我们一样的赚钱机器——只是它很小,而且不酿蜂蜜。 我跟着他们回到了仙境,我看到他们用你的牙齿当烟花来帮助庆祝仙女女王的生日!“你确定你没有也睡着吗?”我说。 “听起来你好像在做梦。“不,这是真的,”特里说。 “你可以问读者。他们也在那里。 他们看到我看到了整个过程!”
'It's not that I don't believe you,' I say. 'But I think I will check with them anyway.' Well, readers, is it true? Did Terry really see all that stuff?
“不是我不相信你,”我说。 但我想我还是会和他们核实一下。”那么,读者们,这是真的吗? 特里真的看到那些东西了吗?
