Chapter 3

Chapter 3 "This is the only way I want to attend science expos from now on," Mary Jane said as she helped herself to a second hot dog. She, Harry, and Peter were in a room behind the auditorium. It was a private area filled with tasty treats and comfortable couches.

“从现在开始，这是我想参加科学展览的唯一方式，”玛丽·简边吃热狗边说。 她、哈利和彼得在礼堂后面的一个房间里。 这是一个私人区域，摆满了美味的食物和舒适的沙发。

"It's fine, I guess," Peter said. He gnawed on a pretzel. "But I think we should get back to the line now." "What?" Harry asked. "Peter, I brought you here so we could all hang out. That's the point."

“我想还好吧。”彼得说。 他啃着一块椒盐脆饼。“但我认为我们现在应该回到那条线上。” “什么?”哈利问。“彼得，我带你来是想和你一起出去玩。 这才是重点。”

Peter shook his head. "No. The point is to gain scientific knowledge!" "You can do that, too," Harry assured. He pointed to a big-screen TV across from them. "When the presentation starts we can grab some popcorn and watch it on that monitor." Peter's mouth fell open. "If I wanted to see the Anti-Grav 500 on a screen I could have stayed home and watched YouTube," he cried. He tossed the rest of his pretzel into the trash and shoved his hands in his pockets. "Leaving the line was a mistake. I'm going back. I'll see you guys later." "Peter, wait," MJ called. But it was too late. Peter had left the room in search of an exit. Unfortunately, finding one was not easy.

彼得摇了摇头。“没有。 关键是要获得科学知识！”“你也可以这么做。”哈利保证道。 他指着对面的一台大屏幕电视。 “当演示开始时，我们可以拿一些爆米花，在那个显示器上看。” 彼得张大了嘴。“如果我想在屏幕上看到反重力500，我可以呆在家里看YouTube，”他哭着说。 他把剩下的椒盐卷饼扔进垃圾桶，双手插在口袋里。 “挂断电话是一个错误。 我要回去了。待会儿见。” “彼得，等等，”MJ叫道。但为时已晚。 彼得离开房间去寻找出口。 不幸的是，找到一个并不容易。

"All these hallways look the same," Peter muttered to himself. He wandered around the mazelike corridors of the Amphitheatre's backstage for a few minutes before he finally saw a sign that read STAGE with an arrow pointing right. Peter's pulse quickened. Could that be where the Anti-Grav 500 was? Sure, he wanted to experience it with all the other expo attendees, but one quick peek right now wouldn't hurt.

“这些走廊看起来都一样。”彼得自言自语道。 他在圆形剧场后台迷宫般的走廊里徘徊了几分钟，终于看到了一块指示牌，上面写着“舞台”，还有一个指向右边的箭头。 彼得的脉搏加快了。反重力500会不会就在那里？ 当然，他想和所有其他世博会参与者一起体验一下，但现在快速浏览一下也无妨。

He was about to go for it when something stopped him cold. An evil laugh echoed down the hall. The hairs on Peter's arms stood on end, but he didn't need his spider-sense to tell him something was wrong. He'd know that maniacal cackle anywhere. It was the Green Goblin! Which meant one thing-Spidey time!

他正要动手，突然有什么东西使他停住了。 一阵邪恶的笑声在大厅里回荡。 彼得胳膊上的汗毛都竖起来了，但他不需要蜘蛛的感觉就知道出了什么事。 他在任何地方都能听到那种疯狂的笑声。 是绿妖精！这意味着一件事——蜘蛛侠时代！
