7 The Sharks

Chapter 7 The Sharks Luckily, my leg wasn't broken after all. It was just a little sore. We practiced really hard that week until we knew all the plays. Finally, it was time for our first game. We were playing a team called the Sharks. It was a beautiful Saturday. When we came out of the locker room, there was Rufus the Doofus floating over the field. And you'll never believe in a million hundred years what was floating in the air right next to Rufus. A blimp! And you know what it said on the side of the blimp? GO SHARKS! How come the Sharks got a blimp and we got a lame, inflatable moose? It totally wasn't fair!

幸运的是，我的腿并没有骨折。 只是有点疼。 那一周我们非常努力地练习，直到我们掌握了所有的剧本。 最后，是时候开始我们的第一款游戏了。 我们的对手是鲨鱼队。 那是一个美丽的星期六。 当我们从更衣室出来的时候，鲁弗斯在球场上飘浮着。 你永远也不会相信鲁弗斯身边飘着什么东西。 软式小型飞船!你知道飞艇的侧面写着什么吗？ 鲨鱼!为什么鲨鱼队有小飞艇，而我们只有一只跛脚的充气驼鹿？ 这完全不公平！

Andrea and the other cheerleaders were on the sideline with their pom-poms. "Football has a kicker. Baseball has a batter! Whatever game we play, the score doesn't matter! Go… Moose!" What a lame cheer. The bleachers were filled with parents and their cameras. A few moms were selling cookies. Some of the teachers from our school were there, too—Miss Holly, Mr. Macky, Ms. Coco, Ms. Hannah, Mr. Loring. I spotted my teacher, Mr. Granite. He comes from another planet called Etinarg. Me and the guys ran over to say hello to him. "Do they have football on Etinarg?" asked Michael.

安德里亚和其他拉拉队队员拿着球球站在场边。 “足球有踢球者。棒球有击球手！无论我们玩什么游戏，分数都不重要！去…麋鹿!”多么蹩脚的欢呼。 露天看台上挤满了带着相机的家长。 几个妈妈在卖饼干。 我们学校的一些老师也去了，霍莉小姐，麦基先生，约翰小姐。 可可，汉娜女士，洛林先生。 我看到了我的老师格拉尼特先生。 他来自另一个叫艾蒂纳的星球。 我和其他人跑过去跟他打招呼。 “艾蒂纳尔有足球节目吗？”迈克尔问。

"Oh no," Mr. Granite said. "We play a game called llabtoof." "How do you play that?" Neil asked. "It's very simple," Mr. Granite told us. "There are thirteen glorps on each darge, and they toss a pinker back and forth to see who can score the most floobs. The winner gets to urgle a flange." That game sounded weird. I wanted to

“哦，不，”格拉尼特先生说。 “我们玩一种叫做llabtoof的游戏。” “你是怎么玩的？”尼尔问。 “这很简单，”格拉尼特告诉我们。 “每只剑上有13个球，他们来回扔一个粉红色的球，看谁得分最多。 获胜者将得到一个法兰。” 那游戏听起来怪怪的。我想

ask Mr. Granite more about llabtoof, but that's when the Sharks came out of their locker room. They had blue uniforms. We all stared as they jogged on to the field. "Wow!" Ryan said. "Those guys are huge!" He was right. The Sharks didn't look like they were humans. Their arms were bigger than my legs. Even their muscles had muscles. "No way those guys weigh seventy pounds," said Michael. "They look like they're in seventh grade," said Neil the nude kid. "We can't beat them," said Ryan. "They're gonna kill us!" "Can't we just pick up their car and carry it away?" I suggested. "They came in a bus, dumbhead," said Ryan.

问格拉尼特先生更多关于labtoof的事，但那是鲨鱼队从更衣室出来的时候。 他们穿着蓝色的制服。当他们小跑到球场上时，我们都盯着看。 “哇!”瑞恩说。“那些家伙块头很大！”他是对的。 鲨鱼看起来不像人类。 他们的胳膊比我的腿还大。 甚至他们的肌肉也有肌肉。 “这些家伙不可能有70磅重。”迈克尔说。 “他们看起来像七年级学生，”裸体小孩尼尔说。 “我们打不过他们，”瑞恩说。 “他们会杀了我们的！”“我们就不能把他们的车开走吗？”我建议。 “他们是坐公共汽车来的，笨蛋，”瑞恩说。

"They're awfully big, Coach," Michael said. "The bigger they come, the harder they fall," Coach Hyatt told us. "Yeah, but they're gonna fall on us," I said, "and we're gonna die!" Wyatt just picked his nose. I'll tell you, that kid must have an unlimited supply of boogers. Andrea and the other cheerleaders made one of their lame cheers: "Winning! Losing! It depends! Why can't we just all be friends? Go… Moose!" When the Sharks came out, their cheerleaders on the other side of the field started doing a cheer of their own. It didn't rhyme or anything, but it sounded a lot

“它们太大了，教练，”迈克尔说。 “他们来的越大，摔得越惨，”凯悦教练告诉我们。 “是啊，但它们会砸到我们的，”我说，“我们会死的！”怀亚特只是挖了挖鼻子。 我跟你说，那孩子肯定有取之不尽的鼻屎。 安德里亚和其他啦啦队员发出了一声蹩脚的欢呼：“赢了！失去!视情况而定!为什么我们不能都做朋友呢？ 去…麋鹿!”当鲨鱼队出场时，他们在球场另一边的拉拉队队员也开始欢呼起来。 不押韵什么的，但听起来很像

better than our cheers: "Kill! Kill! Kill! Crush the Moose! Stomp them! Rip their faces off! Remove their internal organs!" "My life is over," I told the guys.

比我们的欢呼：“杀！杀!杀!粉碎驼鹿！踩他们!把他们的脸撕下来！摘除他们的内脏！”“我的生活完了，”我告诉他们。
