Chapter 10

10 "Let's start with the easiest one first," said Violet, pointing to the small brain. "That one has to belong to the rat." Everyone agreed. "Do you want to scan it?" she asked Devin. "Sure!" he said. He pointed his watch at the brain. A purple laser shot out. "AWESOME!" he said. Devin walked over to the rat. CHOMP!

“我们先从最简单的那个开始吧,”维奥莱特指着那个小脑袋说。 “那只肯定是老鼠的。” 每个人都同意了。“你想扫描一下吗?”她问德文。 “当然!”他说。他把手表对准大脑。 一道紫色的激光射了出来。“太棒了!”他说。 德文向老鼠走去。 CHOMP !

"That's one sassy shark!" Dr. Crisp laughed. Devin crept a little closer. He scanned the rat, and a check mark appeared on his watch. RING, DING, DONG! "Yeah!" everyone shouted. They all gave each other high fives.

“这是一条时髦的鲨鱼!”博士。 脆笑了。德文蹑手蹑脚地靠近了一点。 他扫了一眼老鼠,手表上出现了一个勾号。 叮,叮,叮!“耶!”每个人都喊道。 他们互相击掌。

"That's how you Maker Match!" cheered Dr. Crisp. "What about that one?" asked Pablo, pointing to the bigger, bumpy brain. "I bet it belongs to the chimp!" said Skylar. "It looks like a human brain. And humans and chimpanzees are kind of like cousins in the animal world!" Skylar scanned the brain and then the chimpanzee. RING, DING, DONG! "Okay, we have two left," said Violet. She rubbed her chin. "A donut brain and a…" She paused. "An alien brain!" finished Pablo. Everyone laughed. They studied the brains carefully.

“你就是这样撮合的!” 脆。“那个怎么样?”巴勃罗指着那个更大、凹凸不平的大脑问道。 “我敢打赌它是黑猩猩的!”斯凯拉说。 “它看起来像人类的大脑。 在动物世界里,人类和黑猩猩有点像表亲!”斯凯拉扫描了大脑,然后是黑猩猩。 叮,叮,叮!“好吧,我们还剩两个。”维奥莱特说。 她揉了揉下巴。“一个甜甜圈脑袋和一个……”她顿了顿。 “外星人的大脑!”巴勃罗说完。 每个人都笑了。他们仔细研究了大脑。

"We have to think like scientists," said Violet. "Remember what Dr. Crisp said? What's special about sharks?" "No idea," replied Pablo. "Sharks are really good hunters!" Devin said. "I watched this documentary during shark week. Did you know they can smell blood…?" "That's it!" Skylar yelled. "What's it?" asked Violet. "Before you guys sat down with us at the brain fair, Claire was talking about bulbs in our brain," she continued. "Like lightbulbs?" asked Pablo. Skylar was talking so fast she could barely catch her breath. "No. They were for smelling. She said we have small ones. But they can be pretty big in some animals! Especially animals with a good sense of smell!"

“我们必须像科学家一样思考,”维奥莱特说。 “还记得克里斯普医生说的话吗?” 鲨鱼有什么特别之处?”“不知道,”巴勃罗回答。 “鲨鱼真的是很好的猎手!”德温说。 “我在鲨鱼周期间看了这部纪录片。 你知道他们能闻到血腥味吗?”“就是这样!”Skylar喊道。 “什么事?”维奥莱特问。 “在你们和我们在大脑博览会上坐下来之前,克莱尔一直在谈论我们大脑中的球茎,”她继续说。 “像灯泡一样吗?”巴勃罗问。 斯凯拉说得太快了,她几乎喘不过气来。 “没有。它们是用来闻的。 她说我们有小的。 但是在一些动物身上,它们可能相当大!尤其是嗅觉灵敏的动物!”

Dr. Crisp pulled a rose out of her lab coat and sniffed it. "They're called ol-FAC-to-ry bulbs." "So you think the antennas on the alien brain are olfactory bulbs?" asked Violet. "Maybe?" Skylar replied. "I see some bulbs lighting up in those Maker minds!" cheered Dr. Crisp.

克里斯普博士从她的白大褂里抽出一朵玫瑰,闻了闻。 “它们被称为ol- fact -to-ry灯泡。” “所以你认为外星人大脑上的天线是嗅球?”维奥莱特问。 “可能吗?”Skylar答道。“我看到那些创客的头脑里有了一些灵光!” 脆。

"If sharks have a really good sense of smell, then maybe the alien brain is actually a shark brain!" said Pablo. "Give it a try!" said Violet. Pablo aimed his watch and scanned the alien brain and then the shark. RING, DING, DONG! Violet, Pablo, and the twins jumped up and down with excitement. "The donut brain must belong to the squid then," said Violet. She aimed and scanned. RING, DING, DONG!

巴勃罗说:“如果鲨鱼真的有很好的嗅觉,那么也许外星人的大脑实际上就是鲨鱼的大脑!” “试试吧!”维奥莱特说。 巴勃罗把他的手表瞄准,扫描了外星人的大脑,然后是鲨鱼。 叮,叮,叮!维奥莱特、巴勃罗和双胞胎兴奋地跳上跳下。 “那么,甜甜圈的大脑一定是乌贼的了,”维奥莱特说。 她瞄准并扫视着。叮,叮,叮!
