6 The War to End All Wars

Chapter 6 The War to End All Wars The next morning, I brought Striker Smith to school with me. He's a superhero action figure from the future who travels through time and fights bad guys with a sword that's attached to his hand. Striker Smith is cool. He can turn into a jet plane and fly, too. One time on the school bus I tied a string to Striker Smith's leg and threw him out the window so he could fight bad guys who were attacking the bus. But Striker fell under the bus and got decapitated. That's a fancy way of saying his head came off. I was really sad. The good news is that I got a new Striker Smith for Christmas.

第六章结束所有战争的战争第二天早上，我把斯特莱克·史密斯带到学校来。 他是一个来自未来的超级英雄人物，他穿越时空，用一把绑在手上的剑与坏人战斗。 射手史密斯很酷。他也能变成一架喷气式飞机飞起来。 有一次在校车上，我把一根绳子绑在射手史密斯的腿上，把他扔出窗外，这样他就可以和袭击校车的坏人搏斗了。 但斯特莱克掉到车底下，被斩首了。 这是说他的头掉下来的华丽说法。 我真的很伤心。好消息是我圣诞节收到了一把新的射手史密斯。

Michael brought in a Chewbacca action figure from Star Wars. Ryan brought in Megatron, who is a Transformer who fights in the epic battle between the Auto-bots and Decepticons. Neil the nude kid brought in Private Gunn, who is a helicopter assault trooper who can breathe underwater. He comes with an attack dog and a deluxe blowtorch. Action figures are cool.

迈克尔带来了《星球大战》里的丘巴卡人偶。 瑞恩带来了威震天，他是一个变形金刚，在汽车机器人和霸天虎之间的史诗般的战斗中战斗。 裸体小子尼尔带来了二等兵甘恩，他是一名直升机突击队员，能在水下呼吸。 他带着一只攻击犬和一个豪华喷灯。 人偶很酷。

The girls, of course, brought in their Barbies. "This is Ballerina Barbie," Andrea said when we all met outside Room 104. "Isn't she lovely?" "Oh yes!" said Emily. "Do you like my Circus Star Barbie?" "I brought in Ponytail Barbie," said Annette. "I brought in Wedding Barbie," said Julie. Ugh. Just listening to girls talk about Barbies made me want to throw up. But soon Dr. Brad arrived. He unlocked the door and let us into his office. "Zeez are very nice toys you have," he told us. "Why did you tell us to bring them to school?" asked Andrea. "I vant you to trade toys vis each uhzer,"

当然，女孩们也带来了她们的芭比娃娃。 “这是芭蕾舞女芭比，”我们在104号房外见面时，安德里亚说。 “她是不是很可爱？”“哦，是的！”艾米丽说。 “你喜欢我的马戏团明星芭比娃娃吗？”“我带来了马尾辫芭比娃娃，”安妮特说。 “我带来了婚礼芭比娃娃，”朱莉说。 啊。听女孩们谈论芭比娃娃让我想吐。 但很快布拉德医生来了。 他打开门，让我们进了他的办公室。 “Zeez是你们的好玩具，”他告诉我们。 “你为什么叫我们把它们带到学校来？”安德烈问。 “我想让你们互相交换玩具。”

he said. Huh? "I vant each boy to geeve your favorite toy to a girl," said Dr. Brad, "and each girl to geeve your favorite toy to a boy." "What?!" I said. "I'm not giving a girl my Striker Smith!" "Zees vill help each of you relate to others," Dr. Brad said. "Geeve it a try, A.J. Just for a few minutes." "Here, Arlo," Andrea said, "you can play with my Barbie." Andrea held out her Barbie to me. I backed away like she was holding up a dead rat. I didn't want to touch the thing. "Ugh!" I shouted. "Barbie germs!" "Don't be silly," Dr. Brad said. "Zees vill be fun!" He took our action figures and gave them to the girls. He took the Barbies and

他说。嗯?“我希望每个男孩都能把自己最喜欢的玩具送给一个女孩。” 布拉德，“和每个女孩把你最喜欢的玩具送给一个男孩。” “什么? !”我说。“我不会把我的射手史密斯给一个女孩的！”“zee将帮助你们每个人与他人建立联系。” 布莱德说。“试试吧，A.J. 就几分钟。”“来，阿乐，”安德里亚说，“你可以玩我的芭比娃娃。” 安德里亚把她的芭比娃娃递给我。 我往后退，就像她举着一只死老鼠。 我不想碰那东西。 “哎!”我叫道。“芭比细菌!”“别傻了。” 布莱德说。“会很有趣的！”他把我们的玩具娃娃给了女孩们。 他拿走了芭比娃娃

gave one to each of us guys. "I'm not playing with a doll," announced. "You already do, Arlo," said Andrea. "Action figures are just dolls for boys." "They are not," I said. "Are too." We went back and forth like that for a while until I finally had to say "R2D2." Any time somebody says "are too," you should say "R2D2." That's the first rule of being a kid. "You better not break our action figures!" Ryan warned the girls. "You better not break our Barbies!" said Andrea. "SHTOP!" shouted Dr. Brad. He led me and the guys across the hall to the conference room. Dr. Brad told us to play with the Barbies and he would come

给了我们每人一个。 “我不是在玩娃娃，”他宣布。 “你已经知道了，阿乐。”安德烈说。 “人偶只是男孩的玩偶。” “他们不是，”我说。“太”。 我们就这样来来回回说了一会儿，最后我不得不说“R2D2”。 任何时候有人说“我们太”，你就应该说“R2D2”。 这是当孩子的第一准则。 “你最好别弄坏我们的公仔！”瑞安警告女孩们。 “你最好别弄坏我们的芭比娃娃！”安德烈说。 “停！”布拉德医生喊道。 他领着我和其他人穿过大厅来到会议室。 布莱德医生让我们玩芭比娃娃，他会来的

and check up on us in a little while. Then he left and closed the door behind him. I looked at Michael. Michael looked at Neil. Neil looked at Ryan. Ryan looked at me. I looked at Barbie. "I don't want to play with Barbies," said Neil the nude kid. "Me neither," said Michael. "Hey," I said, "I have an idea! Let's have a Barbie war!" "A.J., you're a genius!" said Michael. "No wonder they want to send you to Dork School." Me and Michael put two Barbies on one end of the long table. Ryan and Neil put the other two Barbies at the far end. It was time for war! The war to end all wars. The War of the Barbies! There was just one problem. Barbies don't come with weapons or anything cool

过会儿再来看我们。 然后他离开了，随手关上了门。 我看着迈克尔。迈克尔看着尼尔。 尼尔看着瑞安。瑞恩看着我。 我看着芭比。“我不想玩芭比娃娃，”裸体小孩尼尔说。 “我也是。”迈克尔说。 “嘿，”我说，“我有个主意！让我们来一场芭比大战吧！”“aj，你真是个天才！”迈克尔说。 “难怪他们要把你送到达克学校去。” 我和迈克尔在长桌的一端放了两个芭比娃娃。 瑞恩和尼尔把另外两个芭比娃娃放在最远的一端。 是时候开战了！结束所有战争的战争。 芭比娃娃大战！只有一个问题。 芭比娃娃没有武器或任何酷的东西
