07 Antarctica

Antarctica Judy predicted it would be hard to sit still until Mr. Todd passed back the spelling tests. She predicted right. She felt antsy as an anthill. Jumpy as a jumping bean. At last, the time came. "Good work. Keep it up," Mr. Todd was saying as he walked around the room, passing back tests and handing out cookies. Heart-shaped cookies. With sprinkles! And he was humming. Mr. Todd never hummed! And he never brought heart-shaped cookies with sprinkles. Not even on Valentine's Day, which it wasn't. It had to be a sign. A sign that she, the Sleeping Speller, had done superduper

南极洲朱迪预测，在托德先生通过拼写测试之前，很难坐下来不动。 她的预测是正确的。她感到坐立不安。 像豆子一样蹦蹦跳跳。最后，时间到了。 “好工作。坚持下去，”托德一边说，一边在教室里走来走去，批改试卷，分发饼干。 心形的饼干。洒!他哼着歌。 托德先生从来不哼歌!而且他从来没带过带糖屑的心形饼干。 就连情人节也没有，其实不是。 这一定是个预兆。这表明她，沉睡的拼写者，做得非常出色

stupendous on her spelling test. That would definitely put Mr. Todd in a good mood. In less than one minute, Class 3T would see that she, Madame M, had ESP. Extra-special Spelling Powers. Just like Jeane Dixon, Famous American Fortuneteller. And Sleeping Speller Man. In less than one minute, Judy had her test back. And the only cookie left was a broken heart. Dear Mr. President! Something was not right! Her paper did not have a Thomas Jefferson sticker. It did not even have a president. Or a sticker. It had a feather. A musty, dusty-looking, old-timey rubber-stamp feather. A quill pen. A quill pen meant Keep Trying. A quill pen meant You Have More Work to Do. A quill pen was as

她的拼写测试成绩非常好。 这会让托德先生心情很好。 不到一分钟，3T班就会发现M女士有超能力。 特别的拼写能力。 就像Jeane Dixon，美国著名的算命师一样。 还有睡着的拼写人。不到一分钟，朱迪的试卷就出来了。 唯一剩下的饼干是一颗破碎的心。 亲爱的总统先生!有点不对劲!她的报纸上没有托马斯·杰斐逊的贴纸。 它甚至没有总统。 或者贴纸。它有一根羽毛。 一种发霉、布满灰尘的老式橡皮图章羽毛。 羽毛笔。羽毛笔的意思是继续尝试。 鹅毛笔意味着你还有更多的工作要做。 羽毛笔就像

preposterous as a hippopotamus. At the bottom of her test was a note from Mr. Todd. It said, "Tortilla has two l's. Zigzag is one word." Judy didn't see why tor-tee-yah had any l's at all. And zig and zag sure seemed like two words to her. Who wrote the dictionary anyway? Mrs. Merriam and Mr. Webster were going to hear from her. All eyes were on Judy. She turned fire-engine red. Hide-your-face-in-your-hands red. Big-fatdictionary red. The Sleeping Speller was a flop. The Sleeping Speller was a flubber-upper. The Sleeping Speller was a big fat phoney-baloney. Maybe Jessica (Flunk) Finch got a musty, dusty quill pen, too! Judy knew it was a bad

像河马一样荒谬。 在她试卷的末尾有一张托德先生的便条。 上面写着"玉米饼有两个l " 曲折是一个词。”朱迪不明白为什么tor-tee-yah有l。 曲折对她来说就像两个词。 到底是谁写的字典? 梅里亚姆太太和韦伯斯特先生会收到她的信。 所有的目光都集中在朱迪身上。她的脸涨得通红。 Hide-your-face-in-your-hands红色。 Big-fatdictionary红色。《沉睡的拼写者》失败了。 沉睡的拼写者是一个不中用的人。 《沉睡的拼写者》就是个大骗子。 也许杰西卡(不及格)芬奇也有一支发霉、满是灰尘的羽毛笔!朱迪知道这是件坏事

mood thought. Judy knew she was supposed to keep her eyes on her own paper. But she couldn't help herself. She turned around. Jessica Finch beamed. Jessica Finch gleamed. Like the day she was crowned Queen Bee and got her picture in the paper. Jessica Finch sat up straight and proud as a president. She held up her paper for Judy to see. "I knew it!" Jessica said. "I got a Thomas

情绪的想法。朱迪知道她应该把注意力集中在自己的试卷上。 但她控制不住自己。 她转过身来。杰西卡·芬奇笑了。 杰西卡·芬奇眉飞色舞。就像她被加冕为蜂王的那天，她的照片上了报纸。 杰西卡·芬奇笔直地坐着，像个总统一样自豪。 她举起试卷给朱迪看。 “我就知道!”杰西卡说。 “我有一个托马斯

Jefferson tricorn hat!" A tricorn hat did not mean flubber-upper. A tricorn hat did not mean Better luck next time. Keep trying. You need more practice! A tricorn hat meant Hats off to you! "How did you know?" Judy asked. Judy was supposed to be the one predicting the future, not Jessica Finch. "I used my brain," said Jessica. "Some people studied." Judy was green with Jealous, Envy. And she did not need her mood ring to prove it. The class buzzed. They turned on Judy like a pack of stinging bees. "Hey, what happened to the Sleeping Speller?" "The Sleeping Speller fell asleep!"

杰斐逊三角帽!”三角帽并不意味着橡胶鞋面。 三角帽并不意味着下次会有好运。 继续试。你需要更多的练习!三角帽的意思是向你脱帽致敬!“你怎么知道的?”朱迪问。 朱迪才是预言未来的人，而不是杰西卡·芬奇。 “我用了脑子，”杰西卡说。 “有些人学习。”茱蒂妒忌得满脸通红。 她不需要她的情绪戒指来证明这一点。 教室里嗡嗡作响。他们像一群蜇人的蜜蜂一样攻击朱迪。 “嘿，那个沉睡的拼字师怎么样了?”“熟睡的拼写者睡着了!”

Judy Moody gave them all a Virginia creeper stare. "Hold on, everybody," said Mr. Todd-the- Hummer. "You know that in this class we keep our eyes on our own papers." "But Mr. Todd, Judy Moody said. She told us. She predicted she would get a 110% perfect paper. She predicted WRONG!" "Nobody can really predict the future!" said Rocky. "Right, Mr. Todd?" "Well, we all play a part in creating our own futures," said Mr. Todd. "So, in the future, I hope you'll concern yourselves with your own work, not the work of the person next to you." That got everybody quiet. "Now. Let's move on to . . . science. Take out your Weather Notebooks."

朱迪·穆迪瞪了他们一眼。 “大家坚持住，”悍马托德先生说。 “你知道，在这门课上，我们都盯着自己的试卷。” “但是托德先生，”朱迪·穆迪说。 她告诉我们的。她预测她会得到110%的满分。 她预测错了!”“没有人能真正预测未来!”洛奇说。 “是吗，托德先生?”托德说:“嗯，我们都在创造我们自己的未来方面发挥着作用。 “所以，在未来，我希望你们关注自己的工作，而不是你旁边的人的工作。” 大家都安静下来了。“现在。 让我们继续……科学。 拿出你们的天气笔记本。”
