06 Drums Up!

Drums Up The next day, Mr. Todd handed back the homework do-overs. He was wearing his Proudof-Class-3T face. "I knew you would/you'd turn this around," he said. "Good work, 3T." Judy could not/couldn't believe her eyes. Triple stickers! Were her eyes playing tricks on her? Judy showed off her homework to Rocky and Frank. Their eyes bugged out of their heads. "Awesome-sauce banana peel?" said Frank. "That is/that's like the best of all the triple stickers!"

第二天，托德先生把作业重做了一遍。 他戴着他那张勃鲁东3t级的脸。 “我知道你会扭转局面的，”他说。 “干得好，3T。”朱迪不敢相信自己的眼睛。 三重贴纸!她的眼睛在捉弄她吗？ 朱迪向洛奇和弗兰克炫耀她的家庭作业。 他们的眼睛都凸出来了。 “美味的香蕉皮？”弗兰克说。 “那是/那是所有三张贴纸中最好的一张！”

Rocky agreed. "You cannot/can't get any better than that. You are/you're like the Queen of Contractions." "Thanks!" said Judy, hoping Jessica Finch heard that one. She drew a picture of an apostrophe trophy and gave it to herself. Then she took out her bucket list and crossed off Get triple stickers on homework. That's when Learn a musical instrument caught her eye. She had an awesome-sauce after-school

岩石同意了。“你找不到比这更好的了。” 你就像宫缩女王。” “谢谢！”朱迪说，希望杰西卡·芬奇听到这句话。 她画了一个撇号奖杯，送给了自己。 然后她拿出自己的遗愿清单，划掉了“在家庭作业上贴三张贴纸”。 就在那时，学一种乐器引起了她的注意。 她放学后喝了一份很棒的调味酱

idea. As soon as the last bell rang, Judy followed Frank and his tuba down the hall to the music room. He filled Judy in on the way. "Mr. Nulty is the music teacher." "Got it," said Judy. "He's really nutty about music." "Uh-huh." "But whatever you do, don't call him Mr. Nutty," said Frank. "Got it," said Judy. "Hi, Mr. Nulty," Frank called. "This is my friend Judy. Can we look around? Judy wants to play an instrument." "Great!" said Mr. Nulty. "Music should be a part of everyone's life, right, Frank?" "Right, Mr. Nutty," said Frank. Oops! "I mean Nulty."

的想法。下课铃一响，朱迪就跟着弗兰克和他的大号穿过大厅来到音乐室。 他在路上告诉了朱迪。 “纳尔蒂先生是音乐老师。” “明白了，”朱迪说。“他对音乐真的很着迷。” “嗯。”“但无论你做什么，都不要叫他坚果先生，”弗兰克说。 “明白了，”朱迪说。“嗨，纳尔蒂先生，”弗兰克喊道。 “这是我的朋友朱迪。我们能四处看看吗？ 朱迪想演奏一种乐器。” “太好了！”纳尔蒂说。“音乐应该成为每个人生活的一部分，对吧，弗兰克？”“好的，坚果先生，”弗兰克说。 哦!“我是说纳尔蒂。”

"If you want to play," Mr. Nulty told Judy, "you have to come once a week after school for a twenty-two-minute lesson. And you'll need to give up one recess a week to come play. How does that sound?" "Good," said Judy. Mr. Nulty handed her a permission slip to get signed.

“如果你想玩，”纳尔蒂告诉朱迪，“你必须每周放学后来上一次22分钟的课。” 你需要每周放弃一次课间休息来玩。 听起来怎么样？”“很好，”朱迪说。 纳尔蒂递给她一张同意书，让她签字。

There were instruments all over the music room— on desks, on tables, on stands. Big brass horns and tiny, shiny flutes and violins with strings. "Go ahead. Take a look around," said Mr. Nulty. "What do you think you might want to play?" He held up a French horn and played a few bars from the theme to Star Wars. "Ooh-la-la!" said Judy. He held up a saxophone and played a riff from "Take Me Out to the Ballgame."

音乐室里到处都是乐器——桌子上、桌子上、架子上。 巨大的铜号，闪亮的小笛子，还有带弦的小提琴。 ”继续。看看周围，”纳尔蒂说。 “你觉得你可能想玩什么？”他举起一支法国圆号，吹了几小节《星球大战》的主题曲。 “哦——啦——啦！”朱迪说。他拿起萨克斯管，演奏了一段《带我去看球赛》的即兴片段。

"Snazzy and jazzy," said Judy. Then he played some high sweet notes on the flute. "I like pressing buttons!" said Judy. The room was almost spinning. Her head was a symphony of sounds. "They all sound so good. How will I ever decide?" said Judy, twirling and untwirling a squiggle of hair around her finger. "Pick one up. Try it out," said Mr. Nulty. "Don't be shy. I have to run to the office and make some copies. I'll give you a few minutes. Frank here can help you." Frank held up a flute. "Here. Everybody likes the flute. Try this one." Judy held the flute to her lips. She blew into the mouthpiece. Eek! Squeak! "It sounds like a mouse!" Judy said. Frank cracked up.

“时髦又时髦，”朱迪说。 然后他用笛子吹了一些高而甜的音符。 “我喜欢按按钮！”朱迪说。 房间几乎在旋转。 她的脑子里充满了各种声音。 “听起来都很不错。我该怎么做决定呢？”朱迪一边说，一边捻着手指上的一绺头发。 “挑一个。试试吧，”纳尔蒂说。 “不要害羞。我得去办公室复印几份。 我给你几分钟时间。 弗兰克可以帮你。”弗兰克举起一支笛子。 “在这里。每个人都喜欢长笛。 试试这个。”朱迪把笛子举到嘴边。 她对着吹嘴吹气。 唷!吱吱声!“听起来像老鼠！”朱迪说。 弗兰克大笑起来。
