Chapter 1 An Island School It was a cold gray day. Miss Winkle told her class, "Let's make up a story together. It will help us forget this winter day."

第一章 小岛上的学校 那是个阴冷灰暗的日子。 温克尔老师告诉班上的小朋友：“咱们一起来编个故事吧。 这样就能忘掉这讨厌的冬天啦。”

Katie raised her hand. "I have an idea!" she said. "Let's pretend our school is in a warm, sunny place." Miss Winkle smiled. "Let's put our school on an island," she said. "Great!" said Pedro. "We will get there on a sailboat instead of a bus!"

凯蒂举起了手。 “我有个好主意！” 她说。 “咱们假装学校在一个暖洋洋、满是阳光的地方好不好？” 温克尔老师笑了。 “那咱们把学校放到小岛上吧。”她说道。 “太棒啦！”佩德罗说。 “我们可以坐帆船去上学，不用坐公交车啦！”

"But how will we do our math?" asked Miss Winkle. "I know!" JoJo said. "We will add up the seagulls when they land." "And subtract them when they fly away," said Katie. "We can't write on paper," said Miss Winkle. "The wind will blow it away." "I know!" said JoJo. "We can write in the wet sand."

“那我们怎么做数学题呀？”温克尔老师问。 “我知道！ 乔乔说。 “海鸥落下来的时候，我们就数有多少只，做加法。” “它们飞走的时候，我们就做减法呀。”凯蒂说。 “我们没法在纸上写字呀，”温克尔老师说， 风会把纸吹跑的。” “我有办法！”乔乔说。 “我们可以在湿乎乎的沙子上写字呀。”

"We won't need erasers," said Katie. "The sea will take away our mistakes." Chapter 2 Around the Globe "I want to go to school in Australia," shouted Peter. "It's upside down there!"

“我们都不用橡皮啦。”凯蒂说。 “海水会把我们写错的地方冲得干干净净的。” 第二章 环游世界 “我想去澳大利亚上学！”彼得大声喊。 “那里是倒过来的呀！”

"That is only on the globe," said Miss Winkle. "It's not really upside down." "Good!" said Susie. "I would get so dizzy!" "Let's go to school on the moon!" yelled Chuck. "It would be so cool!"

“那只是在地球仪上才是倒的哦，”温克尔老师说， “实际才不是倒过来的呢。” “太好了！”苏西说。 “不然我肯定会晕乎乎的！” “我们去月亮上上学吧！”查克嚷嚷道。 “那肯定超酷的！”
