Chapter 1 Rain! One day it started to rain. It rained all day, and it rained all night. "When will it stop?" Katie Woo asked her mom.

第一章 下雨啦！ 有一天，天开始下雨。 雨下了一整个白天，又下了一整夜。 “雨什么时候才会停呀？” 凯蒂·吴问妈妈。

Katie's mom told her, "The weatherman says it will keep raining until tomorrow." The mayor was on TV. "There may be some flooding," he warned. "Everyone should go to a shelter. When the rain stops, you can go home."

凯蒂的妈妈告诉她：“天气预报员说雨会一直下到明天呢。” 市长出现在电视上。 “可能会出现洪涝灾害，”他提醒大家， “所有人都要去避难所。 等雨停了，你们就可以回家了。”

Katie packed a suitcase with shirts and pants and underpants and pajamas. She also took her teddy bear and her cat Sweet Pea's bowl and mouse toy. "I want to take along our family photo album," said Katie's mom. "It has all the pictures of us with Grandma and Grandpa. I thought it was in the living room. But I can't find it."

凯蒂收拾了一个行李箱，里面装了衬衫、裤子、内裤还有睡衣。 她还带上了自己的泰迪熊，还有她的小猫甜豌豆的饭碗和老鼠玩具。 “我想把咱们家的相册带上，”凯蒂的妈妈说， “里面装着咱们和爷爷奶奶、外公外婆的所有照片。 我之前明明记得它放在客厅的。 可现在我找不到它了。”

Katie helped search for the album. But nobody found it. The family had to leave without it. Chapter 2 The Shelter As they drove away, Katie saw water flooding into her neighbors" houses. It was scary!

凯蒂帮着一起找相册。 可谁都没找到。 一家人只能不带相册就离开了。 第二章 避难所 他们开车离开的时候，凯蒂看见洪水涌进了邻居们的房子里。 太吓人了！

The shelter was in the high school gym. Katie's friends Pedro and JoJo were already there. JoJo was holding her little cat, Niblet. "Niblet was hiding in the closet," JoJo said. "We almost had to leave without her."

避难所在高中的体育馆里。 凯蒂的朋友佩德罗和乔乔已经在那儿了。 乔乔正抱着她的小猫尼布利特。 “尼布利特刚才躲在衣柜里，”乔乔说， “我们差点就只能丢下它走了。”
