6 Fancy Nancy and the Delectable Cupcakes

I adore school. (Adore means to really, really like something.) But today I can't wait to go home. I am going to bake cupcakes— fancy cupcakes.

我超喜欢上学。 （“超喜欢”就是非常非常喜欢某样东西的意思哦。） 不过今天我特别盼着赶紧回家。 我要烤纸杯蛋糕——特别精致的那种哦。

"Nancy, did you hear what I just said?" Ms. Glass asks. I shake my head. "I will repeat it," Ms. Glass says. (Repeat is fancy for saying something over again.) "There is no recess tomorrow because of the bake sale." The bake sale is to raise money for library books.

“南希，你刚才听见我说的话了吗？” 格拉斯老师问。 我摇了摇头。 “我再跟你说一遍哦。”格拉斯老师说。 （“重复”就是把说过的话再说一遍的文雅说法哦。）“明天因为义卖会，没有课间休息啦。” 这次义卖是为了给图书馆买书筹钱的。

Before I leave, I go over to Ms. Glass. "I am sorry. I wasn't being a good listener." Ms. Glass smiles. "I know you are trying to improve." (Improve is fancy for getting better at something.) I hug Ms. Glass. I adore her. Really I do.

离开之前，我走到格拉斯老师身边。 “对不起。 刚才我没有认真听您说话。” 格拉斯老师笑了。 “我知道你正在努力改哦。” （“进步”就是在某件事上做得比以前更好的文雅说法哦。） 我抱了抱格拉斯老师。 我超喜欢她。 真的哦。

On the way home Bree says she is making brownies for the bake sale. Robert is making a red velvet cake. It is not really made with velvet. (That is a very fancy kind of cloth.) But the inside is all red. "I will definitely buy a piece," I tell him.

回家路上，布里说她要给义卖会做布朗尼蛋糕。 罗伯特要做红丝绒蛋糕。 它可不是真的用丝绒做的哦。 （丝绒是一种特别精致的布料哦。） 不过蛋糕的内芯全是红色的。 “我肯定会买一块的。”我跟他说。

At the market, my mom buys eggs and milk, flour and sugar, and butter. "Don't forget sprinkles and candy," I tell her. It's lucky I am here or we would end up with plain cupcakes!

在超市里，妈妈买了鸡蛋、牛奶、面粉、糖还有黄油。 “别忘了买糖屑和糖果哦。”我跟妈妈说。 幸好有我在，不然我们做出来的就是普普通通的纸杯蛋糕啦！
