1 The New PTA President

Mrs. Dole Is Out of Control!

多尔夫人失控了！

1 The New PTA President My name is A.J. and I hate school. But you know what? Soon I won't have to go to school anymore for a long time. You know why? Because today is the first day of June! Yay! June is the best month of the year because it's when summer starts! Yippee! No school until September! Me and the guys were putting our backpacks into our cubbies. It was Michael who started singing the best song in the history of the world. "No more pencils!" sang Michael, who never ties his shoes. "No more books!" sang Ryan, who will eat anything, even stuff that isn't food. "No more teachers'!" sang Neil, who we

新的家长会主席我叫A.J. 我讨厌学校。但你知道吗？ 很快我将不用再去学校很长一段时间。 你知道为什么吗？因为今天是六月的第一天！耶!六月是一年中最好的月份，因为夏天开始了！好啊! !九月份才开学！我和伙计们把背包放进小柜子里。 迈克尔开始唱世界历史上最好的歌。 “不要再用铅笔了！”迈克尔唱道，他从来不系鞋带。 “不要再看书了！”瑞恩唱道，他什么都吃，甚至不是食物的东西。 “不再有老师了！”尼尔唱道

call Neil the nude kid even though he wears clothes. "Dirty looks!" I sang. That's when Andrea came in. She is an annoying girl with curly brown hair who loves school. Andrea had on her mean face. "Hey Andrea!" I said. "What's with the mean face? Are you mad because school is almost over?" "No, Arlo," said Andrea, who calls me by my real name because she knows I don't like it. "That's not why I'm mad. Did you hear about the PTA election last night?"* "No." "My mother was running for president," Andrea said, "but she came in second. So she has to be vice president again." "Big deal," I told Andrea. "If the president gets assassinated, then your mom will become president."

叫尼尔裸体小孩，尽管他穿着衣服。 “看起来脏!”我唱。这时安德里亚进来了。 她是一个讨厌的女孩，有着卷曲的棕色头发，喜欢上学。 安德里亚那张刻薄的脸。 “嘿,安德里亚!”我说。“你那张刻薄的脸是怎么回事？” 你是不是因为快放学了而生气？”“不，阿乐，”安德里亚说，她叫我的真名，因为她知道我不喜欢这样。 “这不是我生气的原因。你听说昨晚家长会的选举了吗？“*”没有。” “我妈妈当时在竞选总统，”安德里亚说，“但她得了第二名。 所以她必须再次担任副总统。” “有什么大不了的，”我告诉安德里亚。 “如果总统被暗杀了，那么你妈妈就会成为总统。”

"Nobody assassinates PTA presidents, Arlo!" Andrea said, rolling her eyes. "They do too!" I told her. "Do not!" "Do too!" We went back and forth like that for a while. Sheesh, what a grouch! So what if her mom isn't PTA president? Andrea should take a chill pill. I went to my seat, which is next to Ryan's. "Where's Mrs. Daisy?" Ryan asked. I looked around. Our teacher, Mrs. Daisy, was nowhere to be found. She usually gets to class early. Mrs. Daisy used to be called Miss Daisy, but then she got married. Ladies become Mrs. when they get married. Nobody knows why. Since Mrs. Daisy wasn't around, I

“没人能暗杀家长教师联谊会主席，阿乐！”安德烈说，翻白眼。 “他们也是！”我告诉了她。 “不!”“也是!”我们这样来来回回聊了一会儿。 哎呀，真爱发牢骚！如果她妈妈不是家长会主席又怎样？ 安德里亚应该冷静一下。 我走到我的座位，就在瑞恩的旁边。 “黛西太太在哪儿？”瑞恩问道。 我环顾四周。我们的老师黛西夫人不见了。 她通常很早就去上课。 黛西太太过去常被称为黛西小姐，但后来她结婚了。 女士们结婚后就成了太太。 没人知道为什么。既然黛西太太不在，我

crumpled up a piece of paper and threw it at Andrea. It bounced off her head. "Arlo!" Andrea shouted. "Why did you do that?" "Does there have to be a reason?" Suddenly Mr. Klutz came running into the class. He's the principal of Ella Mentry School, and he has no hair at all. Most principals polish their shoes, but Mr. Klutz polishes his head. "Mrs. Daisy will be late today," he said. "She has a doctor's appointment." "Is Mrs. Daisy sick?" asked Emily, who is

把一张纸揉成一团扔向安德里亚。 它从她的头上弹了回来。“奥尔罗!”安德里亚喊道。 “你为什么要那样做？”“一定要有原因吗？”突然，克鲁茨先生跑进了教室。 他是艾拉门特瑞学校的校长，他根本没有头发。 大多数校长都擦鞋，但克鲁茨擦头。 “黛西太太今天会迟到，”他说。 “她要去看医生。” “黛西太太病了吗？”艾米丽问，她病了

Andrea's crybaby friend. She looked all worried, like she does whenever anybody in the world is sick. "She's fine," said Mr. Klutz. "Actually, I'm glad Mrs. Daisy is late, because the new PTA president wants to speak to you in private. I'd like to introduce—" Mr. Klutz never had the chance to finish his sentence. You'll never believe in a million hundred years who walked into the door. Nobody! Because if you walked into a door, it would hurt. But you'll never believe who walked into the doorway. It was Ryan's mom, Mrs. Dole!

安德里亚爱哭的朋友。她看上去忧心忡忡，就像世界上每当有人生病时她都会做的那样。 “她很好，”克鲁茨说。 “事实上，我很高兴黛西夫人迟到了，因为新的家长会主席想私下和你谈谈。 我想介绍——"克鲁茨先生还没来得及说完他的话。 你永远也不会相信是谁走进了这扇门。 没有人!因为如果你撞到一扇门，会很疼。 但你绝对不会相信谁走进了门口。 是瑞恩的妈妈，多尔夫人！
