Chapter 5

5 Violet went first. She reached into the box with both hands and fumbled around. Eventually, she grabbed something. She ran her hands along the object's curves and edges. Suddenly, her eyes grew wide and a smile flashed on her face. "No way! It's a microscope!" RING DING DONG

5维奥莱特先走了。她双手伸进盒子里摸索着。 最后，她抓了个东西。 她用手抚摸着物体的曲线和边缘。 突然，她的眼睛睁得大大的，脸上闪过一丝微笑。 “不可能!这是显微镜！”叮叮铃

Violet lifted a bright purple mini-microscope from the box. "It matches your pants, Dr. Crisp!" Pablo pointed out. "Purple happens to be my favorite color," said Dr. Crisp, strutting around the stage. Everyone laughed. "Can I go next?" asked Henry. "Sure!" replied Pablo and Violet. Henry reached in. "I got something!" he said. He pulled his arms out. But his hands were empty. "Ah, ah, ah! You have to guess what you're holding before you pull it out of the box. If you don't, it will disappear," said Dr. Crisp with a snap of her fingers.

维奥莉特从盒子里拿出一个亮紫色的微型显微镜。 “它和你的裤子很相配。 脆!”巴勃罗指出。 “紫色恰好是我最喜欢的颜色。” 在舞台上昂首阔步。 每个人都笑了。“下一个可以是我吗？”亨利问。 “当然！”巴勃罗和维奥莱特回答。 亨利伸手进去。“我找到东西了！”他说。 他把胳膊抽出来。但是他的手是空的。 “啊，啊，啊！在你把它从盒子里拿出来之前，你必须猜一下你拿的是什么。 如果你不这样做，它就会消失。 啪的一声手指就脆了。

"She told us that already," said Pablo. "Remember?" "I know!" Henry frowned. "I just got… confused." His cheeks turned pink as he reached back in. He grabbed something else and traced it with his fingertips. "This has to be a belt!" he said after a few moments.

“她已经告诉我们了，”巴勃罗说。 “记得吗?”“我知道!”亨利皱起了眉头。 “我只是……有点困惑。”当他把手伸进去时，他的脸颊变红了。 他抓起别的东西，用指尖描摹着。 “这一定是一条腰带！”过了一会儿，他说。

RING DING DONG Henry pulled out a green belt with a shiny black buckle. An H was drawn on it. "It matches my costume!" said Henry. "Now we just need to get you a cape!" cheered Dr. Crisp. Pablo went last. After digging for a while, he got his hands on something. It felt just like… "A spaceship!" shouted Pablo, holding it high in the air. It was exactly like the ones on his sneakers. "Now it's time to mitten up," said Dr. Crisp.

亨利拿出一条绿腰带，上面有一个闪亮的黑色扣。 在上面画了一个H。“和我的服装很配！”亨利说。 “现在我们只需要给你一件斗篷！” 脆。巴勃罗是最后一个。挖了一会儿后，他发现了一样东西。 那感觉就像……“一艘宇宙飞船！”巴勃罗把它高高举起，喊道。 和他球鞋上的一模一样。 “现在是时候戴手套了。” 脆。

"I wonder if they'll help us feel the objects better," said Pablo. He examined the Mystery Mittens carefully. "Can I go first this time?" Henry asked. "Go ahead!" replied Violet. Henry reached into the Mystery Maker Box. "Whoa, this is different," he said. "What do you mean?" asked Pablo. "Well, I can kind of feel stuff. But it's hard to tell what anything is." Henry kept digging. "I think I have a…stick?" When he pulled his hands out of the box, they were empty. "Are you sure you put the Mystery Mittens on right, Henry?" asked Pablo.

“我想知道它们是否能帮助我们更好地感受这些物品，”巴勃罗说。 他仔细检查了神秘连指手套。 “这次我能先走吗？”亨利问道。 “说吧！”维奥莱特回答。 亨利把手伸进神秘制造者箱。 “哇，这不一样，”他说。 “你是什么意思？”巴勃罗问。 “嗯，我能感觉到一些东西。 但很难分辨任何东西是什么。” 亨利继续挖掘。“我想我有一根……棍子？”当他把手从盒子里抽出来时，两手是空的。 “你确定你把神秘连指手套戴对了吗，亨利？”巴勃罗问。

Henry's shoulders became tense. "I know how to put on mittens! I learned how to do that when I was, like, four," he replied. "It's just that…sometimes you have trouble with directions," Pablo continued. "Why don't you give it a try, then? You'll see it's not so easy," Henry said to Pablo. Pablo reached in and felt around for a minute. "I can't tell what anything is!" He sighed. "Told you," Henry mumbled.

亨利的肩膀变得紧张起来。 “我知道怎么戴连指手套！”我大概四岁的时候就学会了。”他回答道。 “只是……有时候你在方向上有困难，”巴勃罗继续说。 “那你为什么不试一试呢？” 你会发现这并不容易，”亨利对巴勃罗说。 巴勃罗把手伸进去，摸索了一会儿。 “我什么都说不出来！”他叹了口气。 “告诉过你，”亨利咕哝道。
