2 Mr. Willow’s Footsteps

CHAPTER TWO MR. WILLOW'S FOOTSTEPS "IT'S SURPRISING! IT'S amazing! You finish the second half of that bowl even faster than the first," Simon said as the rest of the class sat down and got quiet. He didn't even notice. "And then—OH NO!—the nightmare is back! The chocolate balls are gone. You ate them too fast! There's nothing left. You didn't savor the flavor. All you have now is the fading memory of chocolaty scrumptiousness. Then you—" "Simon, the bell—" I tried to interrupt. But he

第二章威罗先生的脚步声真让人吃惊！这是惊人的!你吃完碗的后半部分比前半部分还要快，”西蒙说，这时全班都坐了下来，安静下来。 他甚至没有注意到。“然后——哦，不！-噩梦又来了！巧克力球没了。 你吃得太快了！什么都没剩下。 你没有品尝它的味道。 你现在所拥有的只是对巧克力美味的逐渐淡去的记忆。 那你——”“西蒙，门铃——”我想打断他。 但他

didn't pay any attention. He had to keep going. "Then you make the third amazing discovery!" The whole room was quiet. Except for Simon. And Mr. Willow's footsteps. "Simon, here comes—" Rosie said, trying to stop him. It didn't work. "You didn't even notice!" Simon continued, even louder. "It's the milk!" Mr. Willow stood behind Simon. Simon didn't know he was there. "It's brown!" Simon yelled.

我没注意。他必须继续前进。 “然后你会有第三个惊人的发现！”整个房间都很安静。 除了西蒙。还有威罗先生的脚步声。 “西蒙，来了——”罗茜说，试图阻止他。 但没有成功。“你根本没注意到！”西蒙继续说，声音更大了。 “是牛奶！”威洛先生站在西蒙身后。 西蒙不知道他在那里。 “这是布朗!”西蒙喊道。

Some of the kids in class applauded. Mr. Willow did not. He put a hand on Simon's shoulder. "Come see me at my desk after I take attendance," he said. That happened Friday. On Saturday, Rosie and I headed to Simon's house.

像巧克力的棕色!你啜饮着，吮吸着，吞下最后一滴珍贵的巧克力液体！”西蒙坐了下来。 他呼出。他低声说：“那——那——就是可可泡芙的早餐体验。” 班上的一些孩子鼓掌。 威罗先生没有。他把手放在西蒙的肩膀上。 “我点完名后，到我的办公桌来找我，”他说。 这件事发生在周五。星期六，罗西和我去了西蒙家。
