20 Splendid Speller

I don't mean to brag, but I am a splendid speller. S-P-L-E-N-D-I-D. (Splendid is even better than great.)

不是我吹牛哦，我可是个超棒的拼写小能手。 S-P-L-E-N-D-I-D。（“超棒”可比“很好”还要厉害哦。）

Bree is a splendid speller too. We practice spelling in our clubhouse after school. I can even spell in French! C-H-I-E-N means "dog." You say it like this—SHEE-enn. My sister is very impressed. (Impressed means she thinks I'm great.)

布里也是个超棒的拼写小能手。 放学后我们会在俱乐部里练习拼写。 我甚至还会拼法语单词呢！ C-H-I-E-N的意思是“小狗”。 读的时候要这么读——SHEE-enn。 我妹妹可佩服我了。 （“佩服”就是她觉得我特别厉害的意思。）

My sister cannot spell any words. My parents spell out stuff they don't want her to hear. They used to fool me this way, but not anymore. She has to get a shot, S-H-O-T, at her checkup tomorrow.

我妹妹还一个单词都不会拼呢。 爸爸妈妈不想让她听见的内容，就会拼出来说。 他们以前也用这招骗我，现在可骗不到啦。 她明天体检要打针，针的拼音是Z-H-E-N哦。不对，他们拼的是S-H-O-T，她明天体检要打一针S-H-O-T哦。哦不对，正确翻译：她明天体检要打一针，S-H-O-T。

At school today, Ms. Glass says, "Our first spelling test is on Friday." Here is the list of test words. pass glass class happy sad glad mad peek week giggle

今天在学校，格拉斯老师说：“我们第一次拼写测验安排在周五。” 这是测验要考的单词列表。 pass 通过 glass 玻璃 class 班级 happy 开心 sad 难过 glad 高兴 mad 生气 peek 偷看 week 周 giggle 咯咯笑

We write down the words. Some kids make faces. They think the words are hard. But Bree and I are happy. H-A-P-P-Y. This test will be easy!

我们把这些单词记了下来。 有些小朋友皱起了脸。 他们觉得这些单词太难了。 可我和布里都很开心。 H-A-P-P-Y（开心）。 这次测验肯定很简单！
