Chapter 2

Chapter Two A noise was coming from the underground den. "Boo! Is there any chance you can stop hammering?" asked Orla. "I can't write with all that noise."

第二章 地下洞穴里传来了一阵声响。 “布！你能不能别敲了呀？”奥拉问道。 “这么吵，我都写不了东西了。”

"No can do, Orla!" said Boo. "If I don't hammer, I'll never finish my Amazing Nail-Painting Machine. BaNg! BaNg! BaNg!

“不行哦，奥拉！”布说。 “我要是不敲，我的超级涂指甲油机器永远都做不完啦。” 哐当！ 哐当！ 哐当！

Orla huffed. She picked up her type- writer and trudged outside to find the quietest, most peaceful place to write the best ghost-free story she could.

奥拉气鼓鼓地呼了口气。 她抱起自己的打字机，慢吞吞地走到外面，想找个最安静、最祥和的地方，写一篇她能想到的最棒的、完全没有幽灵的故事。

Sun streamed into the treehouse. Orla smiled.

阳光洒进了树屋里。 奥拉笑了。

She wiggled her fingers. Sorted her pencils. Dusted her typewriter. But just as she was about to begin... THWaCK. THWaCK. THWaCK.

她动了动手指。 把铅笔理得整整齐齐。 把打字机上的灰擦干净。 可就在她正要开始的时候……啪嗒。 啪嗒。 啪嗒。

A noise was coming from the garden. "Oops! Can you please dig a bit quieter?" said Orla. "I am trying to write a ghost- free story. And that racket is making it very hard."

花园里传来了一阵声响。 “哎哟！ “你挖东西能不能轻点呀？”奥拉说。 “我正想写一篇没有幽灵的故事呢。 这噪音吵得我根本写不下去。”
