Chapter 3

Chapter THREE When we got to the theatre I held onto Pink Rabbit's paw tightly. It was very crowded in the entrance. It made me feel all hot and prickly. There were so many people all jostling around and it was very noisy. We had to go and wait in a queue for a long time. 'Oh goodness!' said Mum, who is not

第三章我们到了剧院，我紧紧抓住粉兔的爪子。 入口处非常拥挤。 这让我觉得又热又刺。 有那么多人挤来挤去，很吵。 我们不得不去排队等了很长时间。 “哦,天哪!妈妈说，她不是

used to being in small crowded spaces. She waved her wand so that a cool gust of air billowed around us. Dad was busy gazing at the posters of ballet dancers on the walls.

习惯于狭小拥挤的空间。 她一挥魔杖，一股凉风在我们周围翻腾。 爸爸正忙着盯着墙上芭蕾舞演员的海报。

'Don't the men look suave!' he said, impressed. 'They are almost as sleek and well dressed as a vampire. That one even has a cape!' 'Everyone stay together,' called Miss Cherry, getting out her register again. 'I want to buy sweets,' said Bruno, pointing at a stand. 'Me too!' said Oliver. My mum gave me some money for food!' Once Miss Cherry had taken the register again we all scrambled towards the sweet stand. Mum gave me money to buy a packet of chocolate stars which are my favourite human sweets. Zoe bought some sour sherbet with her money.

“这些人看起来太文雅了！”他惊讶地说。 “他们几乎和吸血鬼一样时髦，穿着得体。 那只甚至有斗篷！“大家待在一起，”切里小姐叫道，又拿出了她的登记簿。 “我想买糖果，”布鲁诺指着一个小摊说。 “我也是!”奥利弗说。我妈妈给了我一些钱买吃的！”樱桃小姐一拿起收银机，我们就争先恐后地向糖果摊走去。 妈妈给我钱买了一包巧克力星，这是我最喜欢的人类糖果。 佐伊用她的钱买了一些酸果子露。

'I think I shall have some strawberry laces,' announced Dad. 'They are the next best thing to red Juice.' Once we had all got our sweets, we followed Miss Cherry up some stairs and through a little dark door. 'Welcome to the theatre!' she said. I felt my mouth drop open in amazement. We were in a huge, glittering auditorium. There were rows of velvet seats stretching all the way to the back and all the way up to the ceiling. At the front of the massive hall was a stage with a curtain across the front. Everything looked very fancy.

“我想我要一些草莓花边，”爸爸宣布。 “它们是仅次于红果汁的最佳选择。”我们都拿到糖果后，跟着樱桃小姐上了楼梯，穿过一扇小黑门。 “欢迎来到剧院！”她说。 我惊讶得张大了嘴。 我们在一个巨大的、闪闪发光的礼堂里。 一排排的天鹅绒座椅一直延伸到后排，一直延伸到天花板。 在大厅的前面是一个舞台，前面有一个幕布。 每样东西看起来都很别致。

Miss Cherry led us towards a row of seats in the middle of the theatre and we all sat down. 'I can't wait to see the ballet dancers!' said Zoe.

切里小姐把我们领到剧院中央的一排座位上，我们都坐了下来。 “我等不及要看芭蕾舞演员了！”佐伊说。
