9 April Fools’ Day

9 April Fools' Day When we walked into class on Friday morning, the bell in the hallway started ringing. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! "Oh no!" shouted Miss Banks. "It's a flood drill! Quick! Everybody, take off your shoes and socks!"

星期五早上，当我们走进教室时，走廊里的铃声开始响了起来。 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !“哦，不！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “这是防洪演习！”快!所有人，脱掉你们的鞋子和袜子！”

"Very funny," said Alexia. "No, I mean it!" shouted Miss Banks. "It might be a real flash flood this time!" "Yeah, right," I scoffed. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! "Hurry!" yelled Miss Banks. "Roll up your pants legs! Grab your notebooks and climb up on your desks!" "Forget it," said Ryan. "We're not falling for that old prank again." "Yeah," said Andrea. "We weren't born yesterday." Huh? If we were born yesterday, we would be one day old. Babies don't go to school. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! That's when the weirdest thing in the history of the world happened. I looked out the window. Well, that's not the weird part. I look out the window all the time. The weird part was what I saw out the window. It was a wave, a wall of water! And it was coming straight toward the school! "It is a flash flood!" I shouted. "It's not a prank!" "A.J.'s right!" shouted Neil.

“很有趣。”阿列克谢说。 “不，我是认真的！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “这次可能是真正的山洪暴发！”“是啊，没错，”我嘲笑道。 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !“快点！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “把裤腿卷起来！”拿上你们的笔记本，爬到桌子上！”“算了吧，”瑞恩说。 “我们不会再上那个老恶作剧的当了。” “是的，”安德烈说。“我们又不是三岁小孩。” 嗯?如果我们是昨天出生的，我们会有一天大。 婴儿不上学。 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !就在那时，世界历史上最奇怪的事情发生了。 我向窗外望去。这还不是奇怪的地方。 我总是往窗外看。 最奇怪的是我看到窗外的景象。 那是一个波浪，一堵水墙！而且它正径直朝学校飞来！“这是一场山洪暴发！”我叫道。 “这不是恶作剧！”“A.J.没错！”尼尔喊道。

"I'm scared!" yelled Emily. We were all scared. The wall of water rolled across the playground and came shooting through the open windows of our class! Water was pouring into the room. Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg! "Run for your lives!" shouted Neil. "No time for that!" shouted Miss Banks. "Climb on your desks! We'll ride them like surfboards! Use your notebook as a paddle!" But it was too late. The water was up to my waist now. Books and backpacks were floating all over the room. We would have to swim if we were going to make it out of there alive. "Everyone, stay calm!" shouted Miss Banks. "Help!" somebody shouted. "I told you flash floods are dangerous!" Andrea shouted. "You can't see them coming until they're right on top of you!" "That doesn't matter now!" I shouted. "We've got to swim out of here! Somebody open the door!"

“我好害怕！” 我们都很害怕。水墙滚过操场，从我们班开着的窗户里射进来！水正涌进房间。 Brrrrrriinnnnngggggg !“逃命！”尼尔喊道。 “没时间了！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “爬到你们的桌子上！”我们会像骑冲浪板一样骑它们！用你的笔记本当桨！”但为时已晚。 现在水没到我的腰了。 房间里到处都是书和背包。 如果我们想活着离开那里，就得游过去。 “大家保持冷静！”班克斯小姐喊道。 “救命！”有人喊道。“我告诉过你山洪暴发很危险！”安德里亚喊道。 “你看不见他们来了，直到他们就在你的头顶上！”“现在已经不重要了！”我叫道。 “我们得游出去！”谁来开门！”

"Glub-glub," Emily glubbed as her head dipped below the water. "I can't swim!" "Grab my hand, Emily!" Andrea shouted. "I'm drowning!" somebody screamed. "I want my mommy!" "I can't breathe!" shouted Neil. "Where are the straws?" Everybody was yelling and screaming and freaking out. Then, suddenly, the alarm stopped ringing. And you'll never believe what happened next. I woke up. Ha-ha-ha! None of that stuff happened. I made up the whole chapter! I can't believe you actually fell for it! I got you good! Nah-nah-nah boo-boo on you!*

“咕咕——咕咕，”艾米丽把头伸进水里咕咕地说。 “我不会游泳！”“抓住我的手，艾米丽！”安德里亚喊道。 “我要淹死了！”有人尖叫道。 “我要妈妈！”“我不能呼吸了！”尼尔喊道。 “吸管在哪里？”每个人都在大喊大叫，吓坏了。 然后，突然，警报停止了响。 你绝对不会相信接下来发生了什么。 我醒了。哈哈哈!这些事情都没有发生。 整个章节都是我编的！真不敢相信你居然上当了！我抓到你了！不，不，不，你！＊
