Chapter One Billie B Brown has twenty-seven icy-pole sticks, twelve pipe-cleaners and one glue stick. Do you know what the B in Billie B Brown stands for? Busy! Billie is very busy today. She has homework! She is making a tower for her school project.

第一章 比莉·B·布朗有二十七根冰棒棍、十二根毛根棒和一支胶棒。 你知道比莉·B·布朗里的B代表什么吗？ 忙个不停！ 比莉今天可忙啦。 她有家庭作业要做！ 她正在为学校的手工作业搭一座塔。

Billie's teacher is away all week. Another teacher is looking after Billie's class. Her name is Miss Swan. She wears long skirts and lots of silver bracelets.

比莉的老师整整一周都不在。 另一位老师来代管比莉的班级。 她叫斯旺小姐。 她总穿长裙，戴好多银手镯。

When Miss Swan walks, her skirts go swish, swish, swish. Her bracelets go jingle, jingle, jingle. Billie thinks she is wonderful. Miss Swan has decided that Billie's class will build a model city. Everyone in the class will make something to put in it. Some kids are making boring things like hospitals or schools. But not Billie. She is making a tower. But Billie is having a lot of trouble getting her tower to stay up. It wibbles and wobbles, and then it falls down. Billie is beginning to feel very cross.

斯旺小姐走路的时候，裙子会沙沙、沙沙、沙沙响。 她的手镯会叮铃、叮铃、叮铃晃。 比莉觉得她特别了不起。 斯旺小姐决定让比莉的班级搭建一个模型城市。 班里的每个同学都要做一样东西放进去。 有些小朋友做的是医院啊、学校啊这类没意思的东西。 但比莉才不呢。 她要搭一座塔。 可比莉怎么都没法让她的塔稳稳立住，遇到了大麻烦。 塔晃来晃去，然后就塌了。 比莉开始觉得特别生气。

"Stupid tower!" she says. She throws the glue stick across the room. "Billie!" says her mum. "We don't throw things in the house." "Why don't you try something simpler?" says her dad. "You could use a box, like Jack did." Jack is Billie's best friend. He lives next door. Billie and Jack are in the same class at school.

“臭塔！” 她说道。 她把胶棒扔到了房间另一头。 “比莉！”妈妈喊道。 “我们在家可不能乱扔东西。” “你要不要试试做点更简单的呀？”爸爸说道。 “你可以像杰克那样用个盒子做。” 杰克是比莉最好的朋友。 他住在隔壁。 比莉和杰克在学校是同班同学。

Jack finished his project yesterday. He has made a house out of a box. It has windows and doors that open and close. But Billie doesn't want to make a boring old house. She wants to make a fancy tower. She feels so angry that her head is fizzing.

杰克昨天就做完他的手工作业了。 他用盒子做了一座房子。 房子的门窗还能开开关关呢。 可比莉不想做那种没意思的老房子。 她想做一座超好看的塔。 她气得脑袋都要冒烟了。
