6. Icicle Alley

ICICLE ALLEY 6 Sam and Lucy watched in horror as their friend continued to freeze. Antonio couldn't move his feet or legs. The ice held him tight. "Don't worry, buddy!" Sam said. "We'll get you out of here." "H-h-how?" asked Antonio. "We'll think of something," Lucy replied.

冰柱巷6山姆和露西惊恐地看着他们的朋友继续冻僵。 安东尼奥的脚和腿都不能动了。 冰封住了他。“别担心，伙计！”山姆说。 “我们会把你弄出去的。” “啊——怎么做到的？”安东尼奥问。“我们会想办法的。”露茜回答。

Antonio looked his friends in the eyes. "N-n-no," he said. "Orson Eerie is trying to distract you from the real mission: getting to the teachers' lounge. So go! If you turn the heat back on, you'll stop Orson from returning. That will save everyone— even m-m-me!" Sam's mind raced. Yes, we need to get to the teachers' lounge. But we can't leave Antonio behind! Lucy said what Sam was thinking. "No way, Antonio. First, we'll get you free. Then we'll head to the teachers' lounge. It will take all three of us to defeat Orson." Sam tried to remain calm. "So," he said, "how do we free Antonio?"

安东尼奥看着他的朋友们的眼睛。 “不——不——不，”他说。Orson Eerie试图分散你的注意力，让你忘记真正的任务：到达教师休息室。 所以走吧!如果你把暖气打开，奥森就不会回来了。 这将拯救所有人——包括我！”萨姆的脑子飞快地转。 是的，我们要去教师休息室。 但我们不能丢下安东尼奥！露西说出了山姆的想法。 “不可能，安东尼奥。首先，我们会让你自由。 然后我们去教师休息室。 我们三个人一起才能打败奥森。” 萨姆试图保持冷静。“那么，”他说，“我们怎么解救安东尼奥？”

Antonio's eyes lit up. "I h-h-have an idea! My science fair p-p-project taught me that s-s-salt slows down the freezing temperature of water." "So we need salt," Lucy said. "A lot of it!" "I'll run to the kitchen!" Sam said. "There could be another trap," said Lucy. "I'm going with you." "Okay," Sam replied. "Antonio, don't worry, we won't be long!" "You b-b-better not be!" Antonio said. If Sam and Lucy didn't hurry, he'd soon be frozen solid. Sam set the hammer down on the sink.

安东尼奥的眼睛亮了起来。“我——我——我有个主意！”我的科学展览项目告诉我，盐会降低水的冰点温度。” “所以我们需要盐。”露茜说。 “很多！”“我要跑到厨房去！”山姆说。 “可能还有别的陷阱。”露茜说。 “我和你一起去。”“好吧，”萨姆回答。 “安东尼奥，别担心，我们不会待太久的！”“你最好别——别！”安东尼奥说。 如果山姆和露西不快点，他很快就会冻僵的。 萨姆把锤子放在水池上。

An instant later, he and Lucy were both racing toward the kitchen. The temperature continued to drop. Snow swirled through the open windows, and wind whipped down the hallway. Slushy water was up to their ankles, and it was rising fast. Sam felt like they were running through a hurricane! "Argh," Lucy groaned, as they dashed around the corner. "Nothing ruins a day like wet socks."

过了一会儿，他和露茜都向厨房跑去。 气温继续下降。 雪在敞开的窗户里打转，风吹过走廊。 泥泞的水没过他们的脚踝，而且还在迅速上涨。 山姆觉得他们正在经历一场飓风！“啊！”他们冲过拐角时，露茜呻吟道。 “没有什么比湿袜子更能毁掉一天的了。”

Sam shook his head. "That's not true. Orson Eerie ruins a day worse than anything." He could see his breath in the air. It was thick, like smoke. Sam slipped. Lucy grabbed him just before he plunged into the water. Working together, they kept each other from falling. Finally, they came to the lunchroom. "It isn't going to be easy to reach the kitchen..." Lucy said, as she stood in the doorway.

山姆摇了摇头。“这不是真的。 Orson Eerie比任何事情都更糟糕地破坏了一天。” 他可以从空气中看到自己的呼吸。 它很浓，像烟一样。山姆下滑。 就在他跳入水中之前，露西抓住了他。 他们齐心协力，防止彼此摔倒。 最后，他们来到了午餐室。 “要到厨房可不容易……” 露茜站在门口说。

The lunchroom was dark and strange shadows seemed to dance on the walls and across the wet floor. Water dripped from the sprinklers and through the ceiling tiles. Jagged icicles hung from the room's high ceiling. It was like the ceiling was covered in giant spikes! Sam and Lucy could see the kitchen door along the far wall. But getting there seemed impossible...

餐厅里很黑，奇怪的影子似乎在墙上和潮湿的地板上跳舞。 水从洒水器滴下来，穿过天花板的瓷砖。 房间高高的天花板上悬挂着参差不齐的冰柱。 就好像天花板上布满了巨大的尖刺！萨姆和露西可以看到厨房的门沿着远处的墙。 但到达那里似乎是不可能的……
