5 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg!

5 Brrrrriinnnnnggggg! Suddenly, a bell in the hallway started ringing, really loud. The bell in our school sounds like the word "bring." Nobody knows why. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! Everybody was alarmed.* "It must be a fire drill," said Andrea. "We need to walk outside in single file."

5 Brrrrriinnnnnggggg !突然，走廊里的铃声响了起来，非常响。 我们学校的铃声听起来像“带来”这个词。 没人知道为什么。Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !每个人都惊慌了。“一定是消防演习，”安德烈说。 “我们得排成一列走出去。”

"It can't be a fire drill," said Miss Banks. "They always tell the teachers in advance when there's going to be a fire drill, so we don't schedule a test at that time." "Maybe it's a tornado drill," suggested Ryan. Every so often we have a tornado drill. "No, it's not a tornado drill," said Miss Banks. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! Then our librarian, Mrs. Roopy, poked her head into the doorway. "Flood drill!" she shouted. Next she went down the hall shouting to all the other classes, "Flood drill! Flood drill!" I never heard of a flood drill. "Flash floods can be very dangerous," said Andrea, who thinks she knows everything. "I saw an article that said you can't see a flash flood coming until it's right on top of you. Then it's too late." Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! "Andrea's right," said Miss Banks. "Everybody, take off your shoes and socks, then roll up your pants legs."

“这不可能是消防演习，”班克斯小姐说。 “他们总是提前告诉老师什么时候要进行消防演习，所以我们不会在那个时候安排考试。” “也许这是龙卷风演习，”瑞恩建议道。 我们每隔一段时间就会进行龙卷风演习。 “不，这不是龙卷风演习，”班克斯小姐说。 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !这时，我们的图书管理员鲁比夫人从门口探出头来。 “防汛钻机！”她喊道。 接着，她走到大厅那头，对其他班的同学喊道：“洪水演习！洪水钻!”我从没听说过防洪演习。 “山洪暴发可能非常危险，”自认为无所不知的安德里亚说。 “我看到一篇文章说，你无法看到山洪暴发，直到它就在你的头顶上。 那就太晚了。”Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !“安德烈说得对，”班克斯小姐说。 “所有人，脱掉鞋子和袜子，然后把裤腿卷起来。”

We all rushed to take off our shoes and socks. "Grab a notebook and climb up on your desk," said Miss Banks. "The water might get high in

我们都跑去脱鞋和袜子。 “拿一个笔记本，爬到你的桌子上，”班克斯小姐说。 “水可能会涨得很高

here. If it's a big wave, ride your desk like a surfboard. You can use your notebook as a paddle." I grabbed my notebook and climbed up on my desk. Miss Banks got a box of straws from her drawer gave a straw to each of us. "If the water is over your head," she said, "you can breathe through the straw like a snorkel. Put it in your mouth." That was pretty smart, I had to admit. The bell stopped ringing. And you'll never believe who walked into the door at that moment.

在这里。如果是大浪，把你的办公桌当成冲浪板。 你可以用你的笔记本当桨。” 我抓起笔记本，爬上书桌。 班克斯小姐从抽屉里拿出一盒吸管，给我们每人一根。 “如果水没过你的头，”她说，“你可以像用通气管一样用吸管呼吸。 把它放进嘴里。”我不得不承认，这很聪明。 铃不响了。你绝对不会相信那一刻谁走进来了。

Nobody! It would hurt if you walked into a door! But you'll never believe who walked into the doorway. It was Mrs. Stoker! "Why are you all standing on your desks?" she asked. "And what's with the straws?" "It's a flood drill," I told her. "We're going to ride our desks like surfboards," said Michael, "and breathe through straws if the water is over our head." Mrs. Stoker slapped her knees and doubled over laughing. "There's no such thing as a flood drill," she told us. "That's hilarious!" "I got you kids again!" shouted Miss Banks. "Ha-ha-ha! I can't believe you fell for it! That's the oldest prank in the book!" "I'll put another point on the scoreboard for the teachers," said Mrs. Stoker. Grrrrrrrr.

没有人!如果你撞到门会疼的！但你绝对不会相信谁走进了门口。 是斯托克太太！“你们为什么都站在桌子上？”她问。 “这些吸管是干什么用的？”“这是防洪演习，”我告诉她。 “我们要像骑冲浪板一样骑我们的桌子，”迈克尔说，“如果水没过我们的头，我们就用吸管呼吸。” 斯托克太太拍了拍膝盖，笑得直不起腰来。 “根本没有什么防洪演习，”她告诉我们。 “这是搞笑!”“我又抓到你们这些孩子了！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “哈哈哈!我真不敢相信你上当了！这是书上最古老的恶作剧了！”“我要在记分牌上再给老师加一分，”斯托克太太说。 Grrrrrrrr。
