6. Show-off

Chapter 6 SHOW-OFF THURSDAY Dear Diary, If you really want to be in the show, I can help you. This morning. I made a plan to get Duchess in the show. But helping her wasn't easy! We are NOT used to being nice to each other. Help!? From you? Okay. Never mind... Well, if you're going to beg me. I'll do it.

第六章炫耀星期四亲爱的日记：如果你真的想参加演出，我可以帮助你。 今天早上。我计划好了让公爵夫人参加演出。 但是帮助她并不容易！我们不习惯对彼此好。 救命! ?从你吗?好吧。没关系…… 如果你要求我的话。 我来做。

As Bella headed to school. I put my plan into action. Duchess would be in my act with me. I started to show her where she could jump in. Here you can... ...Add a triple flip!

贝拉去学校的路上。 我把我的计划付诸实施。 公爵夫人会和我一起演戏。 我开始告诉她哪里可以跳进去。 在这里你可以... ...增加一个三翻！

It turned out Duchess already knew my whole act! She had a few ideas of her own. If you stop here. I can twist and flip. Uhhhhh...

原来公爵夫人已经知道了我的全部动作！她有一些自己的想法。 如果你停在这里。我可以旋转和翻转。 Uhhhhh……

Duchess's ideas were good, but it started to feel like Duchess was the star of MY act. Then I could do a bunch of backflips. Look pretty? What do I do while you show off YOUR moves?

公爵夫人的想法很好，但我开始觉得公爵夫人是我表演中的明星。 然后我可以做一堆后空翻。 看起来漂亮吗?当你展示你的动作时我该做什么？

I wondered if I had made a mistake inviting Duchess to be in my act. What if everyone watches her instead of me, Diary? But the act IS more exciting now, and Duchess seems so happy. That was your best move yet, Bubby-kins. Was that a compliment! Maybe. Don't get used to it.

我不知道邀请公爵夫人来演戏是不是个错误。 如果每个人都看她而不是我呢，日记？ 但现在演出更激动人心了，公爵夫人似乎很高兴。 这是你最好的一招，小泡泡。 这是恭维吗？也许吧。 不要习惯了。

We finished practicing just as Bella came home. Duchess kept walking in circles. She does that when she's nervous. We will show Bella the new act tomorrow. Are you sure this is going to work? Don't you trust me? Not usually. But I will try in this case. Gee, thanks. I needed a break from Duchess then, so I went to see what Bella was up to.

贝拉回家的时候，我们刚练完。 公爵夫人一直在兜圈子。 她紧张的时候就会这么做。 明天我们将向贝拉展示新表演。 你确定这能行吗？ 你不相信我吗？不是很经常。 但这次我会试一试。 哎呀,谢谢。我需要暂时离开公爵夫人，所以我去看看贝拉在忙什么。
