09 Judy Moody and Jessica Flinch

Judy Moody and Jessica Flinch On Monday morning Mr. Todd asked, "Where's Frank today?" "Absent," said Judy. "Oh, that's right. I heard that he broke his finger. Does anybody know how it happened?" "It's a looooooooooooooooooong story," said Judy. "As long as a centipede!" said Rocky. "I heard Judy Moody stepped on him!" said Adam. "CRACK!" He bent his finger back like it was breaking. "Okay, okay. We'll ask Frank all about it when he gets back."

星期一早上，托德先生问:“弗兰克今天去哪儿了?”“缺席，”朱迪说。 “哦，对了。我听说他把手指弄断了。 有人知道是怎么回事吗?”“这是一个很长的故事，”朱迪说。 “和蜈蚣一样长!”洛奇说。 “我听说朱迪·穆迪踩到了他!”亚当说。 “裂缝!”他把手指向后弯，好像要断了一样。 “好吧,好吧。等弗兰克回来，我们再问问他。”

"He'll be back tomorrow," Judy said. Judy looked at the empty desk next to her. Without Frank, there was no one to snort at her jokes. Without Frank, she spelled barnacle with an i. Without Frank, she had nobody to tease about eating paste. To make matters worse, all morning Jessica Finch kept inching her desk a little closer, a little closer to Judy. "Is that the elbow that was in the paper?" Jessica asked. Judy drew a mad face on her famous elbow and pointed it at Jessica.

“他明天就回来，”朱迪说。 朱迪看着她旁边的空桌子。 没有弗兰克，就没有人对她的笑话嗤之以鼻了。 没有Frank，她把barnacle拼成了i。 没有了弗兰克，她就没人取笑她吃糊了。 更糟糕的是，整个上午杰西卡·芬奇都在把她的桌子挪近一点，离朱迪更近一点。 “那是报纸上的那个胳膊肘吗?”杰西卡问道。 朱迪在她那著名的胳膊肘上画了个鬼脸，指着杰西卡。

"Hey, Judy? Want to come over to my house after school?" asked Jessica. "I could show you my glow-in-the-dark spelling posters." "Can't," said Judy. "Why not?" "I have to feed Jaws, my Venus flytrap." "How about tomorrow?" "I feed it every day," said Judy. "How about after you feed Jaws?" asked

“嘿,朱迪?“放学后想去我家吗?”杰西卡问。 “我可以给你看看我的夜光拼写海报。” “不行，”朱迪说。“为什么不?”“我得喂大白鲨，我的捕蝇草。” “明天怎么样?”“我每天都喂它，”朱迪说。 “喂完大白鲨之后呢?

Jessica. "Homework," said Judy. The truth: by Friday Judy was almost bored enough to go to Jessica's. Rocky had to stay at his grandma's after school for a week because his mom was working late, and Frank could hardly do anything with a broken finger. Too bad she had finished operating on all the hospital dolls so quickly. Making a cast was the best! If only she could try making a bigger cast, on a human patient. But who? Stink would not let her near him with wet oogey newspaper. Judy looked back at Jessica Finch. Maybe she did not look like a Pinch Face. Maybe she did not look like an aardwolf. Maybe she looked like . . . a doctor's dream. The perfect patient!

杰西卡。“家庭作业，”朱迪说。 真相是:到星期五的时候，朱迪已经无聊到要去杰西卡家了。 洛奇放学后不得不在他奶奶家呆了一个星期，因为他妈妈工作到很晚，而弗兰克的手指骨折了，几乎做不了任何事情。 可惜她这么快就给医院所有的娃娃做了手术。 做石膏是最好的!要是她能在人类病人身上做一个更大的石膏就好了。 但是谁呢?臭臭不让她拿着湿报纸靠近他。 朱迪回头看着杰西卡·芬奇。 也许她看起来不像捏脸。 也许她看起来不像一只土狼。 也许她看起来像… 医生的梦想。完美的病人!

"Hey, Jessica," Judy asked, "how would you like to get your arm in a cast?" "It's not broken," Jessica said. "Who cares?" said Judy. "It's just for fun." "Sure, I guess. Does this mean you'll come over? I can show you my spelling posters." "How does today after school sound?" asked Judy. When Judy got to Jessica Finch's house, the two girls went up to Jessica's room. Judy looked around. All she could see were pigs. Pink pigs. Stuffed pigs. Piggy banks. A fuzzy piggy-face rug. Even Jessica's bed looked like a pig wearing a pink skirt. "You like pigs!" said Judy. "What was your first clue?" Jessica laughed in

“嘿，杰西卡，”朱迪问，“你的手臂打个石膏怎么样?”“它没有坏，”杰西卡说。 “谁在乎呢?”朱迪说。“只是为了好玩。” “当然，我想。这意味着你会过来吗? 我可以给你看我的拼写海报。” “今天放学后怎么样?”朱迪问。 当朱迪到达杰西卡·芬奇的家时，两个女孩去了杰西卡的房间。 朱迪环顾四周。她能看到的只有猪。 粉红色的猪。玩具猪。存钱罐。 毛茸茸的猪脸地毯。就连杰西卡的床看起来都像一头穿着粉色裙子的猪。 “你喜欢猪!”朱迪说。 “你的第一个线索是什么?”杰西卡笑着说

her hyena way. Judy touched the spelling bee prize ribbons Jessica had hanging on the wall. Jessica showed Judy her scrapbook, with all the times her name had been in the paper. "Wow," said Judy. "Did they ever spell your name wrong?" "Once. Jessica Flinch!"

她的鬣狗作风。朱迪摸了摸杰西卡挂在墙上的拼字比赛彩带。 杰西卡给朱迪看她的剪贴簿，上面有她名字出现的所有时间。 “哇，”朱迪说。“他们把你的名字拼错过吗?””一次。 杰西卡退缩!”
