CHAPTER 4 Pizza Party! The lunchroom was WAY different at night. First of all, there were only four tables set up. The rest of the tables were folded up and pushed against the walls. Second of all, most of the lights were out, except for the ones above the four tables. The rest of the room looked dark, and kind of spooky. And third of all, one of the tables had a bunch of pizza boxes on top of it. The pizza was the good news. The bad
第四章 披萨派对! 晚上的食堂和白天完全不一样。 首先,只摆好了四张桌子。 剩下的桌子都折起来靠在了墙边。 其次,大部分灯都关了,只有四张桌子上方的灯亮着。 房间其他地方黑沉沉的,还有点吓人。 最后,其中一张桌子上堆了好多披萨盒。 有披萨是好事。 坏
news was Mr. Moyers was in the lunchroom, too. "Bad luck again," Lucy told me. "What did you say?" I asked. "I said bad luck," she told me. "I'll say," Talisa said. Arielle didn't say anything. She just stood beside us, looking shaky. I thought about what Penny had said happened when you broke a mirror—seven years of bad luck. Dad had said it wasn't true, and I wanted to believe him. But first Evie didn't show up, and now this. Mr. Moyers is the mean lunch aide. You can tell how mean he is just by looking at him. He's got beady little Raisinet eyes, and a long pointy nose, and thin lips that are pressed together like he's just tasted something sour. When he does open his mouth, it is never
消息是,莫耶斯先生也在食堂里。 "又倒霉了,"露西对我说。 "你说什么?" 我问道。 "我说我们倒霉了,"她告诉我。 "可不是嘛,"塔莉莎说。 艾瑞尔什么都没说。 她就站在我们旁边,浑身发颤。 我想起彭妮说过,打碎镜子会招来七年坏运气。 爸爸说这不是真的,我愿意相信他。 可先是伊维没来,现在又碰到这事。 莫耶斯先生是个凶巴巴的食堂助理。 你光看他样子就知道他有多凶。 他长着葡萄干一样的小珠子眼,又长又尖的鼻子,薄薄的嘴唇总抿着,好像刚尝了什么酸东西。 可他就算张开嘴,从来都不会
to talk in a regular voice. I don't know if Mr. Moyers even has a regular voice. I've only ever heard him yelling. And he yells about EVERYTHING. If you spill something by accident. If you want to trade desserts. Or if more than two kids have to go to the bathroom at the same time. Mr. Moyers turned and fixed his beady little eyes on me and my friends. "Don't stand around like deer in headlights!" he yelled. "Sit down!" We raced around and sat at the table that was farthest away from him. There were paper plates and juice boxes set up at every seat. I could smell the pizza from my seat and it was making me feel EXTRA STARVING. Pizza is my number one favorite food in the whole entire world. Well, except for fudge. If I was only allowed to eat one thing for the rest
用正常声音说话。 我都不知道莫耶斯先生会不会好好说话。 我只听过他大喊大叫。 什么事他都要吼一顿。 如果你不小心打翻了东西。 如果你想要换甜点。 或是超过两个孩子同时要上厕所。 莫耶斯先生转过身,用他的小珠子眼盯着我和朋友们。 "别像愣头青似的站在那儿!" 他吼道。 "坐下!" 我们赶紧跑开,坐到离他最远的桌子旁。 每个座位上都摆好了纸盘和果汁盒。 我坐在座位上都能闻到披萨香,饿得肚子咕咕叫。 披萨是全世界我最爱的食物。 哦,除了软糖。 如果我这辈子剩下的日子只能吃一种东西
of my life it would be fudge. But if I got to eat two things, I'd pick fudge and pizza. Other kids who hadn't been yelled at had walked over to the pizza table. They reached for the open boxes, and said things like, "Wait, I don't want a plain slice!" And, "Hey is that the pepperoni?" But soon Mr. Moyers yelled at them, too. "Don't touch other people's food with your dirty little hands!" Clark was so startled he dropped a piece of pizza facedown on the floor. "Now look what you did!" Mr. Moyers shouted. He sure does know how to make pizza parties stop being fun. Mrs. Anderson stuck two fingers in her mouth and whistled the loudest whistle I'd ever heard. Everyone got quiet. Mr. Moyers narrowed his beady eyes into little slits, but he
那肯定就是软糖。 要是能吃两种,我就选软糖和披萨。 其他没被吼过的孩子已经走到披萨桌那边了。 他们伸手开盒子,嘴里说着:"等等,我不要原味切片!" 还有人喊:"嘿,这是辣香肠味的吗?" 不过很快,莫耶斯先生也对他们吼起来了。 "别用你的脏小手碰别人的食物!" 克拉克吓了一跳,一块披萨正面掉在了地上。 "看看你干的好事!" 莫耶斯先生大喊。 他可太会扫披萨派对的兴了。 安德森夫人把两根手指放进嘴里,吹了一声我听过最响的哨子。 所有人都安静了。 莫耶斯先生把小珠子眼眯成了细缝,但他还是
got quiet, too. "Everyone, please take your seats," Mrs. Anderson said. "But I didn't get any pizza yet!" Joshua said. "Sit, Joshua," Mrs. Finkel told him. "Whether you have pizza or not." "Aw, man!" Joshua said. But he sat down—at the very same table my friends and I were sitting at.
也安静下来了。 "大家请坐好,"安德森夫人说。 "可是我还没拿到披萨呢!" 约书亚说。 "坐下,约书亚,"芬克尔夫人对他说。 "不管你有没有拿到披萨。" "唉,真是的!" 约书亚说。 不过他还是坐下了——就坐在我和朋友们这一桌。
