Fancy NANCY Best Reading Buddies

漂亮南希 最佳阅读搭档

Ooh la la! I am so fortunate. That's fancy for lucky. I have a reading buddy. On Mondays we read together.

哇哦！ 我太幸运啦。 这是“幸运”的 fancy 说法。 我有一个阅读搭档。 每周一我们都会一起读书。

Violet is in fifth grade and very mature. That means she acts grown-up. She wears cool clothes. "I don't like to match," she says. "I like to look original. That means different." Violet shows me her feet. Even her shoes don't match!

维奥莱特上五年级，非常成熟。 就是说她行为举止像个大人。 她穿得超酷。 “我不喜欢穿得配套，”她说。 “我喜欢穿出自己的风格。 就是不一样的意思。” 维奥莱特给我看她的脚。 连她的鞋子都不搭成对！

That night I try on lots of clothes. "I don't like to match," I tell JoJo. "I like to look original." Then I try reading to JoJo. But she wants to play instead. She is not a good reading buddy. Not like Violet.

那天晚上我试了好多套衣服。 “我不喜欢穿得配套，”我对乔乔说。 “我喜欢穿出自己的风格。” 然后我试着读书给乔乔听。 可她只想玩。 她可不是个好的阅读搭档。 才不像维奥莱特呢。

Violet and I like all the same books. Isn't that fortunate? Sometimes I read to Violet. I sound out the hard words. "You are a great reader," she tells me. "Merci," I say. "That's French for thanks!"

我和维奥莱特喜欢一模一样的书。 是不是超幸运呀。 有时候我读给维奥莱特听。 我会拼读出难的单词。 “你读得太棒啦，”她对我说。 “谢谢，”我说。 “这是法语的谢谢哦！”

Later we go to the cafeteria. We eat and chat. Violet wants to be a librarian someday. Me too! Today Violet reads a funny book about a girl and her little sister. The little sister gets into mischief. Mischief is fancy for trouble.

之后我们去了食堂。 我们边吃边聊天。 维奥莱特说她以后想当图书馆管理员。 我也想！ 今天维奥莱特读了一本好玩的书，讲一个女孩和她的小妹妹。 小妹妹总调皮捣蛋。 捣蛋就是“麻烦”的 fancy 说法。
