It's Halloween! "Boo!" yelled Crud. "Ruff! Woof! Ruff! You scared the doggie bones out of me," said Ick. "It's that time of year," said Crud. "You mean pumpkins with bad teeth? Witches? And kids dressed as ghosts?" "Yes," said Crud. "It's Halloween."

万圣节到啦！ “吓！”克拉德大喊。 “汪！ 汪！汪！ 你把我吓得狗骨头都要掉出来了。”伊克说。 “每年的这个时候就是这样呀。”克拉德说。 “你是说那些牙烂掉的南瓜？ 还有女巫？ 还有打扮成幽灵的小朋友？” “对呀。”克拉德说。 “这就是万圣节呀。”

Ick shivered. "Halloween has too many ghosts. I don't like ghosts. They live in attics. And they eat little dogs." "I'll protect you, buddy," said Crud. Just then Bob walked in holding two boxes. On each was written: Dog Costume.

伊克打了个哆嗦。 “万圣节的幽灵太多啦。 我不喜欢幽灵。 它们住在阁楼里。 还会吃小狗。” “我会保护你的，兄弟。”克拉德说。 就在这时，鲍勃拿着两个盒子走了进来。 每个盒子上都写着：狗狗服装。

"Uh-oh," said Ick. "Not this year," said Crud. "I'm not letting him dress me up like a hot dog again." "You had it easy," moaned Ick. "Bob put me in a buggy last year. I had a baby rattle! Kids screamed and fainted when they saw me." "Well, this year will be different," said Crud. "Stick with me." "Like bubblegum," said Ick.

“哎哟。”伊克说。 “今年可别了。”克拉德说。 “我可不要再让他把我打扮成热狗了。” “你那算轻松的了。”伊克唉声叹气地说。 “去年鲍勃把我塞进了婴儿车。 还给了我个拨浪鼓！ 小朋友们看到我都吓得尖叫着晕倒了。” “哎呀，今年会不一样的。”克拉德说。 “跟着我就行。” “像泡泡糖粘在一起那样？”伊克说。

I Look Boo-tiful "Come, Crud," called Bob. Crud acted like he didn't hear. "Crud!" yelled Bob again. "Come!" "Not gonna do it," whispered Crud. "Me neither," said Ick. "We're stuck together like bubblegum." Just then Bob scooped up Crud. And took him into the next room. "Nice sticking like bubblegum," yelled Crud. "You're next." Ick paced back and forth. And forth and back. Until...

我看起来“吓”死人的美 “过来呀，克拉德。”鲍勃喊道。 克拉德装作没听见的样子。 “克拉德！”鲍勃又喊了一声。 “过来！” “我才不要过去。”克拉德小声说。 “我也不要。”伊克说。 “我们要像泡泡糖一样黏在一起，不分开。” 就在这时，鲍勃一把抱起克拉德。 把他带到了隔壁房间。 “可真会像泡泡糖一样黏住啊。”克拉德大喊。 “下一个就是你了。” 伊克来来回回地踱步。 走过去又走回来。 直到……

a big white blob floated into the room. "AAOOOHH! A ghost! I knew it!" yelled Ick. He dashed under a table. And used his nose to stop. "AAAGGGHH!" yelled Ick. "My nose. My nose! A ghost broke my nose."

一团白白的大东西飘进了房间。 “嗷呜！ 是幽灵！ 我就知道！” 伊克大喊起来。 他猛地冲到桌子底下。 用鼻子顶着桌脚才停下。 “啊啊啊！”伊克大叫。 “我的鼻子。 我的鼻子！ 幽灵把我的鼻子弄伤了。”
