16 Blasts into Space

The Magic School Bus Blasts, into Space LEVEL 2

神奇校车飞向太空 第2级

Ms. Frizzle is not like other teachers. She is the strangest teacher in school. WE NEVER KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN ON HER BUS. AFTER ALL, IT'S THE MAGIC SCHOOL BUS!

弗瑞斯老师和其他老师不一样。 她是学校里最古怪的老师。 我们永远不知道坐上她的校车会发生什么。 毕竟，这可是神奇校车啊！

"Let's start something new today," the Friz says. "Who knows something about planets and space?" A PLANET IS LARGE AND ROUND. PLANETS GO AROUND A STAR. MY NEW GAME WILL TELL US. IT IS ALL ABOUT SPACE. "Let's play my space game," said Carlos. "Great idea, Carlos," the Friz says. "To the bus, kids!" Liz beats us out the door. She loves trips. I HAVE A FUNNY FEELING ABOUT THIS. CAN'T WE JUST PLAY THE GAME HERE?

“咱们今天学点新东西，”弗瑞斯老师说。 “谁了解行星和太空相关的知识呀？” 行星又大又圆。 行星都绕着恒星转。 我的新游戏能告诉大家答案。 它全是和太空有关的内容。 “咱们来玩我的太空游戏吧。”卡洛斯说。 “好主意，卡洛斯。”弗瑞斯老师说。 “孩子们，上车啦！” 莉兹比我们先冲出门。 她可喜欢出行了。 我有种怪怪的预感。 难道我们 就不能在这儿玩游戏吗？

Ms. Frizzle turns the key, and the bus lifts off! A screen appears at the front of the bus. "It's my game!" Carlos yells. CLASS, WE'RE GOING TO GET A GOOD LOOK AT SPACE WHAT'S SO GOOD ABOUT IT? "If we answer five riddles, we win," Carlos tells us. "But the game has a time limit. The clock is counting down!" FOR EVERY CORRECT ANSWER, A BUTTON TURNS GREEN. WE HAVE A QUESTION... YEAH, WILL WE EVER TAKE A NORMAL CLASS TRIP?

弗瑞斯老师转动钥匙，校车一下子升空了！ 校车前面出现了一块屏幕。 “这是我的游戏！” 卡洛斯喊道。 同学们，我们要好好看看太空 太空有什么好的呀？ “要是我们答对五道谜题，就赢了。”卡洛斯告诉大家。 “不过这个游戏有时间限制。 倒计时已经开始了！” 每答对一道题，就会有一个按钮变绿。 我有个问题…… 是啊，我们什么时候才能有次正常的班级出行啊？

"There is only one star in our solar system-the sun!" D.A. says. A button on the screen turns green. OUR SUN IS A STAR. WHY DOES IT LOOK SO MUCH BIGGER THAN THE OTHER STARS? BECAUSE IT IS CLOSE TO EARTH. OTHER STARS ARE VERY FAR AWAY. I HOPE WE DON'T VISIT ONE OF THOSE "D.A. got it right!" Carlos tells us. "If we win, all the buttons will be green." All at once the bus speeds up.

“我们的太阳系里只有一颗恒星——就是太阳！” D.A.说。 屏幕上的一个按钮变绿了。 我们的太阳是一颗恒星。 为什么它看起来比其他恒星大那么多呀？ 因为它离地球很近。 其他恒星都离我们非常远。 我希望我们可别去那些恒星那儿。“D.A.答对啦！” 卡洛斯告诉大家。 “要是我们赢了，所有按钮都会变绿的。” 突然间，校车加速了。

We whiz away from the sun. We pass two planets. The next riddle shows up on the screen. We look out the window at Mercury and Venus. We try to answer the riddle. THOSE PLANETS ARE TOO HOT TO HAVE BIG ICE CAPS ON THE TOP AND BOTTOM. THAT'S BECAUSE THEY ARE SO CLOSE TO THE SUN.

我们嗖地一下飞离了太阳。 我们路过了两颗行星。 下一道谜题出现在了屏幕上。 我们望着窗外的水星和金星。 我们试着解开这道谜题。 这几颗行星太热了，顶部和底部不可能有大片冰盖。 这是因为它们离太阳太近了。
