TOTO THE NINJA CAT AND THE INCREDIBLE CHEESE HEIST DERMOT O'LEARY

忍者猫托托和不可思议的奶酪抢劫德莫特·奥莱利

CHAPTER 1 'OK, Silver,' the bushy- tailed cat said to himself, 'empty your mind, you can do this. Don't worry about the last twenty- four attempts.' 'Let's go over it again,' said his sister Toto, with a smile.

第一章“好了，西尔弗，”毛茸茸的猫自言自语道，“清空你的大脑，你能做到的。 不要担心最后的24次尝试。“让我们再看一遍吧，”他的妹妹托托微笑着说。

'You leap, then bounce off the glass window to the left, off the wall to the right, then dive for the handle and hey presto, we've got an open fridge!' 'And just to be clear, this is all with my eyes shut?' Silver asked. 'You said you wanted to do some ninja training,' laughed Toto. 'The Double-wall- bounce-open-fridge is one of the first moves you learn. Except, well, I may have added the "open-fridge" bit...

“你跳起来，然后在左边的玻璃窗上反弹，在右边的墙上反弹，然后扑向把手，嘿，我们得到了一个打开的冰箱！”“我要澄清一下，这一切都是我闭着眼睛看的吗？”银问。 “你说你想做一些忍者训练，”托托笑着说。 “双壁弹跳式冰箱是你首先学会的动作之一。 除了，嗯，我可能加了“打开冰箱”这一点…

Silver looked up at the fridge, he really did want to eat. Their human Mamma and Papa were out, and they'd finished their cat food hours ago. He knew he could never be an ACTUAL NINJA, like his sister- that would take ages and lots of practice and training, and he was far too impatient and HUNGRY for all of that. But a couple of moves would be really cool. Plus it wouldn't hurt his reputation with the neighbourhood cats. Especially that lovely ginger (que bella!) who'd moved in across the street and who he quite fancied- not that he'd ever admit that to his sister... there'd be no living it down. 'You can do this, Silver,' he muttered to himself. He took a running jump, launched

西尔弗抬头看着冰箱，他真的很想吃东西。 他们的人类妈妈和爸爸出去了，他们几个小时前就吃完了猫粮。 他知道他永远不可能像他姐姐那样成为一名真正的忍者——那需要很长时间，需要大量的练习和训练，而他对这一切太没耐心和太渴望了。 不过来几个动作就很酷了。 而且这也不会影响他在邻居中的名声。 尤其是那个搬到街对面来的可爱的姜色女孩（que bella!），他很喜欢她——但他从未向妹妹承认过这一点…… 那是无法释怀的。 “你能行的，西尔弗，”他自言自语道。 他猛地一跳，跳了起来

himself at the window -so far so good- and then bounced onto the wall... This is it, he thought as he hurtled through the air, I'm going to make it, my first Ninja move! 'HERE WE GOOO... ARGH...' Silver opened his eyes and realised his leap from the wall wasn't far enough. He was about to miss the fridge and crash into

他自己站在窗前——到目前为止还不错——然后弹到了墙上…… 好了，他一边在空中疾驰一边想，我要成功了，我的第一个忍者动作！“好了…… 啊……”西尔弗睁开眼睛，意识到他从墙上跳得不够远。 他差点撞上冰箱，撞到

the freezer door below for the twenty-fifth painful time. He closed his eyes again and braced for impact... but incredibly, none came. Instead he felt a WHOOSH of wind in his whiskers as his sister grabbed him, and pulled him to safety on the kitchen counter. Somehow (and very coolly) opening the fridge on her way past!

下面的冰柜门已经痛了25次了。 他再次闭上眼睛，准备迎接撞击。 但令人难以置信的是，没有人来。 相反，他感到一阵风吹过他的胡须，他的妹妹抓住他，把他拉到厨房柜台上安全的地方。 不知何故（而且非常冷静）在她经过的路上打开了冰箱！
