9. D-Day

9 D-Day Miss Aker picked up Super Droney. We grabbed our marshmallow shooters and gathered up as many bags of marshmallows as we could carry. "It's D-Day, kids," Miss Aker said very seriously. "That stands for Droney Day. Let's do this." We marched out to the playground.

d日阿克小姐捡起了超级无人机。 我们抓起我们的棉花糖射击枪，尽可能多地收集了几袋棉花糖。 “今天是诺曼底登陆日，孩子们，”阿克小姐非常严肃地说。 “这代表着无聊的一天。 让我们开始吧。”我们向操场走去。

When we got there, I looked up in the sky. There was no sign of Droney or Mr. Klutz. The teachers started digging foxholes in the dirt around the playground. Miss Aker hid Super Droney behind the slide. "Super Droney will be our secret weapon," she said. "MUST... DESTROY... DRONEY," repeated Super Droney. Miss Aker led us over to a picnic table and unrolled a big map on it. We all gathered around. So did Ms. Beard and Mrs. Lilly. "Droney will probably come from this direction," Miss Aker said, pointing at the map. "We'll wait until it gets here, and if Droney comes down low enough, we'll attack it with marshmallows here." Miss Aker looked like she was in complete control. I was nervous. We all were. I loaded a marshmallow into my

当我们到达那里时，我抬头看了看天空。 没有德鲁尼和克鲁茨先生的踪迹。 老师们开始在操场周围的泥土里挖散兵坑。 阿克小姐把超级机器人藏在滑梯后面。 “超级无人机将是我们的秘密武器，”她说。 “必须…摧毁……超级机器人重复道。 阿克小姐把我们领到一张野餐桌前，在上面展开了一张大地图。 我们都围了过来。奥巴马夫人也是如此。 比尔德和莉莉太太。“无人机可能会从这个方向来，”阿克小姐指着地图说。 “我们等着它来，如果Droney飞得足够低，我们就在这里用棉花糖攻击它。” 阿克小姐看上去一切尽在掌握之中。 我很紧张。我们都是。 我把棉花糖塞进我的

shooter. "I'm scared," said Emily, who is always scared. "Remember kids," Miss Aker told us. "We are makers. We will defend our school, whatever the cost may be. We will fight on the beaches. We will fight on the landing grounds. We will fight in the fields and in the streets. We will fight in the hills. We will never surrender!" Miss Aker was very inspirational. "Are you kids with me?" she asked. "Yeah!" we all shouted. Miss Aker took out binoculars and scanned the horizon. There was no sign of Droney. "What if Droney doesn't come back?" asked Michael. "Oh, it will come back," Miss Aker reassured him. "It wants to be principal of the school. It has to come back. And when it does, we're going to blast it out of

射击游戏。“我害怕，”总是害怕的艾米丽说。 “记住，孩子们，”阿克小姐告诉我们。 “我们是创造者。无论付出什么代价，我们都要保卫我们的学校。 我们将在海滩上作战。 我们将在登陆场作战。 我们将在田野和街道上战斗。 我们将在山上作战。 我们决不投降！”阿克小姐非常鼓舞人心。 “你们是孩子吗？”她问。 “耶！”我们都喊道。阿克小姐拿出双筒望远镜，扫视着地平线。 没有唐尼的迹象。 “要是强尼不回来怎么办？”迈克尔问。 “哦，它会回来的，"阿克小姐安慰他说。 “它想成为学校的校长。 它必须回来。等它来了，我们就把它炸出来

the sky. I just hope we brought along enough marshmallows." There was nothing to do but wait. We all climbed into foxholes. In the distance, I heard somebody playing a harmonica. That's when Andrea came over. She got into my foxhole with me.

天空。我只希望我们带了足够的棉花糖。” 除了等待，别无他法。 我们都爬进散兵坑。 我听到远处有人在吹口琴。 这时安德里亚过来了。 她和我一起进了散兵坑。

"What are you doing here?" I whispered. "Get your own foxhole." "Arlo," she whispered, "I need to talk to you." "About what?" I whispered. "Just in case one of us doesn't make it out of here alive," Andrea whispered, "I want you to know something." "What?" I whispered. "Arlo, I just want you to know—" But Andrea didn't have the chance to finish her sentence, because Miss Aker started yelling. "Look, up in the sky!" she shouted. "It's Droney!" I looked up. There was a dot in the distant sky. Andrea jumped out of my foxhole and climbed into another one. "Droney is coming this way!" shouted Ryan. "Does it have Mr. Klutz with it?" asked Emily.

“你在这儿干什么？”我低声说。 “给自己找个散兵坑。”“阿乐，”她低声说，“我需要和你谈谈。” “什么?”我低声说。 “万一我们中有人不能活着离开这里，”安德里亚低声说，“我想让你知道一件事。” “什么?”我低声说。“阿乐，我只是想让你知道——”但是安德里亚还没来得及把话说完，因为阿克小姐开始大喊大叫了。 “看，在天上！”她喊道。 “这是Droney !”我抬起头来。 远处的天空中有一个点。 安德里亚跳出了我的散兵坑，爬进了另一个。 “约翰尼朝这边来了！”瑞恩喊道。 “有克鲁茨先生在吗？”艾米丽问。

"I don't think so," said Ryan. "It's too far away to tell." "Okay, get ready, everyone," said Miss Aker. "When Droney gets close enough, we're going to give it everything we've got. But don't shoot until you see the whites of the propellers." Droney came closer... and closer... until it hovered over the playground, just a little too high for us to reach with our marshmallow shooters. "SO, WE MEET AGAIN," said Droney. "Where is Mr. Klutz?" shouted Miss Aker. "THAT IS FOR ME TO KNOW AND YOU TO FIND OUT," replied Droney. "PUT DOWN YOUR PATHETIC MARSHMALLOW SHOOTERS." How dare Droney insult our marshmallow shooters! We made them

“我不这么认为，”瑞恩说。 “太远了，看不清。” “好了，大家准备好，”阿克小姐说。 “当‘Droney’离我们足够近的时候，我们会竭尽全力。 但是在你看到螺旋桨的白色之前不要开枪。” 无人机靠近了……越来越近…… 直到它在操场上空盘旋，有点高，我们用棉花糖射击枪够不着。 “那么，我们又见面了，”Droney说。 “克鲁兹先生在哪儿？”阿克小姐喊道。 “那是我知道的，你自己去发现。”卓尼回答。 “放下你可怜的棉花糖射击枪。” Droney竟敢侮辱我们的棉花糖射手！是我们做的
