小罗拉 · 3 Too Scared to Be a Knight
CHAPTER 2 VACUUM CLEANER The vacuum cleaner was roaring in the lounge room. It liked to snatch up things that didn't belong to it, like Lola's hair clips and her pet bread crust. Lola was sure someone would need rescuing from the vacuum cleaner.
第二章 吸尘器 吸尘器正在客厅里轰隆隆地响着。 它总爱抢走不属于自己的东西,比如洛拉的发夹,还有她珍藏的面包皮小宠物。 洛拉敢肯定,肯定有人要被吸尘器抓走,得有人去救他才行。
Lola already had armour, but the knight on the cover of Max's book was wearing a helmet, too. Lola had given her helmet to a statue in the park to protect it from the rain. So she saddled her horse, and they galloped to Mum and Dad's room to look for a new one.
洛拉已经有盔甲了,可麦克斯书封面上的骑士还戴着头盔呢。 洛拉之前把自己的头盔送给了公园里的雕像,帮它挡雨。 于是她给她的小马套上鞍,两人哒哒哒跑到爸爸妈妈的房间,想找个新头盔。
There were no helmets there, but there was a washing basket, and inside the washing basket there was a peg basket. Lola tipped the clothes and the pegs onto the bed. Then she put the peg basket on her head.
房间里没有头盔,但是有个洗衣篮,洗衣篮里面还有个晾衣夹篮子。 洛拉把衣服和夹子都倒在了床上。 然后她把晾衣夹篮子扣在了自己头上。
Now all Lola needed was a new sword. There were no bananas in Mum and Dad's room, but there was a pair of Dad's undies. Lola put them on the end of an umbrella. If the vacuum cleaner wanted to attack, it would have to get through Dad's undies first.
现在洛拉只差一把新宝剑了。 爸爸妈妈的房间里没有香蕉,不过有一条爸爸的内裤。 洛拉把内裤套在了伞的顶端。 要是吸尘器敢来攻击,就得先过了爸爸内裤这一关。
Lola crept into the lounge room and snuck behind the couch. Dad was on the floor looking for something. The vacuum cleaner was right there, waiting to snatch him up. It was so loud that Lola wanted to turn straight back around. Instead, she straightened her helmet and took a deep breath.
洛拉蹑手蹑脚走进客厅,偷偷溜到了沙发后面。 爸爸正趴在地上找东西。 吸尘器就在旁边,正等着把他一口抓走呢。 它的声音太吵了,洛拉恨不得立刻转身就跑。 可她没有,她正了正头上的头盔,深吸了一口气。
"MACARONI!" yelled Lola. She jumped out and waved her sword. Her helmet slipped down over her eyes. "Lola!" shouted Dad. "What are you doing?" The vacuum cleaner growled even louder. "Get back!" cried Lola. "Leave my dad alone!" She leapt at the vacuum cleaner and her helmet fell off her head.
“通心粉出击!”洛拉大喝一声。 她跳了出来,挥舞着手里的宝剑。 她的头盔滑了下来,挡住了眼睛。 “洛拉!”爸爸大喊道, “你在干什么呀?” 吸尘器轰隆得更响了。 “退后!”洛拉喊道, “不许碰我爸爸!” 她朝着吸尘器扑过去,头盔从头上掉了下来。
