Gordon · 2 Start A Band

Part 2

But Anthony is waiting for him with a lovely mug of hot chocolate. And a note. TO THE NICEST GOOSE ON EARTH! "HUMPH, says Gordon crossly. It is just like Anthony to ruin Gordon's mean plans. He drinks his hot chocolate and glares out the window. He doesn't feel like a nice goose today. Being nice is hard enough on a good day, but it is impossible with such a mysterious and annoying sound wafting around. "What's the matter?" Anthony asks. "You seem upset."

可安东尼正端着一杯热乎乎的巧克力等他呢。 还有一张小纸条。 给全世界最最善良的小鹅! “哼。”戈登气鼓鼓地说。 安东尼可真行,又把戈登的坏主意给搅黄了。 他喝着热巧克力,气冲冲地盯着窗外。 他今天可一点都不觉得自己是只善良的小鹅。 本来天气好的时候做个好人就够难的了,现在还有这么个神秘又烦人的声音飘来飘去,根本不可能好好当好人嘛。 “你怎么啦?” 安东尼问。 “你看起来不太开心呀。”

"Can't you hear that terrible noise? It kept me awake ALL night!" "You mean the bird?" "No. It's a horrible whistly sound. It's very soft and very sad and really VERY annoying." "I don't hear it." (Anthony has dirt in his ears which is just the way he likes them.) "Maybe you could use a distraction?" says Anthony. "We could get working on fixing all of the bad things you did."

“你没听见那讨厌的噪音吗? 吵得我一整晚都没睡着!” “你说的是那只小鸟吗?” “才不是。 是个很吓人的哨子声。 轻轻的,还听着特别难过,真的特别特别烦人。” “我没听见呀。” (安东尼耳朵里有泥,他就喜欢耳朵里有泥的感觉。)“或许你可以转移下注意力?”安东尼说。 “我们可以一起把你之前干的那些坏事都修好呀。”

But Gordon doesn't want to listen to Anthony. WE CAN DO A MILLION GOOD DEEDS! BUT I CANT DO A SINGLE THING UNTIL WE FIGURE OUT WHAT'S MAKING THAT NOISE! "I still don't hear it," says Anthony. "Well, I'm going to find out what's making it because if that sound doesn't stop soon, I won't be a good goose at all. I'll be a mean goose. I'll be THE MEANEST GOOSE ON EARTH!" Gordon storms out of the front door and sees Delilah Crocodile.

可戈登根本不想听安东尼的话。 我们能做一百万件好事! 但要是不搞清楚那声音是哪儿来的,我一件事都做不了! “我还是没听见呀。”安东尼说。 “哼,我要自己去找到声音的来源,因为要是这声音再不消停,我就再也不当好鹅了。 我要当坏鹅。 我要当全世界最坏的鹅!” 戈登气冲冲地冲出前门,正好看见鳄鱼黛莉拉。

HEY! YOU THERE! I MEAN, EXCUSE ME MADAM. DO YOU HEAR THAT ANNOYING WHISTLY SOUND? But Delilah Crocodile takes one look at Gordon and screams. Then she screams again. (It is a very pretty scream because she studied at the Canary School of Music.)

喂! 就是你! 哦不对,不好意思,女士。 你有没有听见那个烦人的哨子声? 可鳄鱼黛莉拉才看了戈登一眼,就尖叫起来。 接着她又尖叫了一声。 (这尖叫特别好听,因为她可是在金丝雀音乐学院上过学的。)

Then she snatches up her groceries in her arms and disappears down into the sewers. "Oh," says Gordon, "that didn't work at all." "Yes," says Anthony, "not everyone knows you're a good goose now. A lot of people still think you're going to do something horrible." Well, I will do something horrible if that noise doesn't stop. Pack your bags, Anthony, we're going for a hike. I need to find out what's making that sound!"

然后她一把抱起自己买的东西,钻进下水道不见了。 “哦,”戈登说,“这根本没用嘛。” “是啊,”安东尼说,“不是所有人都知道你现在是只好鹅啦。 好多人还觉得你会干坏事呢。” 哼,那噪音要是再不消停,我真的要干坏事了。 收拾东西,安东尼,我们要去远足。 我非得找出那声音是哪儿来的不可!”

It is a hot day and they walk up the road following the strange noise. IT'S GETTING LOUDER. DO YOU HEAR IT YET? No. They walk along the promenade. IT'S UNBEARABLY LOUD. YOU MUST HEAR IT NOW? Nope. They walk past THE ZOO. NOW?! Hang on. Ummm, yes! I think I hear it! They leave the road and wander into Squirrel Forest.

天很热,他们顺着路往前走,跟着那奇怪的声音走。 声音越来越大啦。 你现在听见了吗? 没有。 他们沿着滨海步道走。 这声音大得受不了啦。 你现在总该听见了吧? 没听见。 他们走过动物园。 现在呢?! 等一下。 嗯,对! 我好像听见了! 他们离开大路,走进了松鼠森林。
