7. Calm Down

7 Calm Down They just kept coming, one after the other! There was a face painter, a bubble blower, a guy dressed like a ninja, a guy who looked like Frankenstein, two martial artists, and some lady named Mrs. Wizard who said she builds robots out of Legos. The backyard was jammed

他们一个接一个地来了！有一个脸部彩绘师，一个吹泡泡的人，一个穿得像忍者的人，一个看起来像弗兰肯斯坦的人，两个武术家，还有一个叫巫师夫人的女士她说她用乐高积木造机器人。 后院挤满了人。

with all kinds of party entertainers. I let them all in. There was no stopping them. Suddenly, I remembered that Darth Vader was still in the bathroom. He had been there for about a million hundred hours. I was starting to get worried. I ran inside the house and went over to the bathroom door. "Is everything okay in there, Mr. Vader?" I asked. "Can I get you anything?" "Just leave me alone," he shouted. "I'll be out soon." I went back to the party. Everybody seemed to be having a good time. People were painting their own pottery, jumping on the trampoline, and dancing to DJ Jazzy Jim's music. My grandmother was learning how to

和各种各样的派对艺人。 我让他们都进来了。没有什么能阻止他们。 突然，我想起达斯·维德还在浴室里。 他在那里待了大约一百万个小时。 我开始担心了。 我跑进屋里，走到浴室门口。 “里面一切都好吗，维德先生？”我问。 “你需要什么吗？”“别烦我，”他喊道。 “我马上就出去。”我回到了派对上。 每个人似乎都玩得很开心。 人们在自己的陶器上画画，在蹦床上蹦蹦跳跳，随着DJ爵士吉姆的音乐跳舞。 我的祖母正在学习如何

Zumba, whatever that is. "You sure know how to throw a party, A.J.!" Ryan shouted over the music. "Yeah, but I'm starving," hollered Neil. "When is the pizza guy going to show up?" "Good question," I replied. At that point, I noticed some guy standing over by the gate.

尊巴，不管那是什么。“你还真会办派对啊，aj !”瑞安在音乐声中喊道。 “是啊，但我饿死了。”尼尔喊道。 “送披萨的什么时候会来？”“问得好，”我回答。 就在那时，我注意到有个人站在门口。

"That must be the pizza guy!" I shouted. "At last!" everybody yelled. Mr. Marty and my dad went to the gate. But it wasn't the pizza guy. It was a guy wearing a top hat and a black cape. "Who are you?" my dad asked angrily. "It is I, the Amazing Tortolini!" the guy announced as he pulled out a deck of cards. "Pick a card, any card!" "Can you make all these people disappear?" muttered my dad. "You might as well come in. Everybody else is here." Right behind the Amazing Tortolini was a guy dressed as a cowboy and holding a guitar.

“一定是那个送披萨的！”我叫道。 “终于来了！” 马蒂先生和我爸爸去了大门。 但不是那个送披萨的。 是一个戴着大礼帽，穿着黑色斗篷的人。 “你是谁？”爸爸生气地问。 “是我，神奇的Tortolini!”那家伙一边说一边拿出一副牌。 “挑一张牌，随便哪张！”“你能让这些人都消失吗？” “你还是进来吧。 其他人都来了。”就在神奇的Tortolini后面，有一个人穿着牛仔的衣服，拿着一把吉他。

"Who are you?" my dad asked. "Ah am Drusty Rhodes, the Singin' Cowpoke," the guy said, really slowly. "Did you say Dusty or Rusty?" I asked. "It's Drusty," he replied. "Ah came to strum a few tunes for the young 'uns." Then he started to sing...

“你是谁？”爸爸问。 “我是德鲁斯提·罗兹，唱歌牛仔。”那家伙说，语速很慢。 “你是说达斯迪还是罗斯蒂？”我问。 “是德鲁斯提，”他回答。 “我是来给年轻人弹几支曲子的。” 然后他开始唱歌……

"The ants are my friends, blowin' in the wind..." Oh no, not that song! Why would anybody make friends with ants? My dad grabbed Mr. Marty. "When is your pizza guy going to get here?" Dad demanded. "The guests are complaining that they're starving." "Hmmmm," Mini-Marty said as Mr. Marty scrolled through the emails on his smartphone. "It looks like I made another tiny mistake. I may have forgotten to contact the pizza guy." "WHAT?!" my dad shouted. "You emailed all these other people, but you forgot to order the pizza?" My dad slammed the gate shut. His face was all red. It looked like he was going to explode. My mom came running over and put her arm around

“蚂蚁是我的朋友，在风中飘荡……” 哦，不，不要那首歌！为什么会有人和蚂蚁交朋友？ 我爸爸抓住了马蒂先生。“送披萨的什么时候来？”爸爸问道。 “客人们都在抱怨他们快饿死了。” “嗯，”马蒂一边说，一边翻阅智能手机上的电子邮件。 “看来我又犯了一个小错误。 我可能忘了联系送披萨的人。” “什么？！”我爸爸喊道。“你给那么多人发了邮件，却忘了订披萨？”爸爸砰地关上了门。 他的脸涨得通红。他好像要爆炸了。 我妈妈跑过来，用胳膊搂着我
