06 Monkey Trouble

Chapter 6 Monkey Trouble Squeak, squeak! Peanut poked her head out from Annie's pocket. She seemed to be yelling at the monkey. Don't worry, Peanut, said Annie. He's just a little monkey. He won't hurt us. But suddenly the monkey grabbed a big red fruit hanging from the tree. He hurled it at the canoe. Watch it! shouted Jack. The fruit fell into the water with a splash. The monkey squeaked even louder. He grabbed another fruit.

第六章 调皮的猴子 吱吱！吱吱！ 小花生从安妮的口袋里探出头来。 她好像正对着那只猴子大叫呢。 “别担心，小花生，”安妮说。 他只是只小猴子而已。 他不会伤害我们的。 可忽然，猴子一把抓住了树上挂着的一颗大大的红色果子。 他用力把果子朝独木舟扔了过来。 “小心！” 杰克大喊道。 果子“扑通”一声掉进了水里。 猴子叫得更响了。 他又抓了一颗果子。

you

你

Don't throw things at us !" shouted Annie. But the monkey hurled the red fruit right at them. Jack and Annie ducked again, and the fruit splashed into the water. Stop that! Annie shouted. But the monkey only waved his arms and screeched again. Oh, brother! said Jack. I don't believe this. The monkey grabbed a third fruit and hurled it at Jack and Annie. It landed inside the canoe with a thump. Annie grabbed the fruit. She stood up and threw it back at the monkey. She missed. The canoe rocked. Annie almost fell out.

“别朝我们扔东西！”安妮大喊道。 可猴子还是把那颗红果子直直朝他们扔了过来。 杰克和安妮赶紧又低下头，果子“哗啦”一声掉进了水里。 “住手！”安妮大喊。 可猴子只是挥着胳膊，又尖声叫了起来。 “哎呀我的天！”杰克说，“这也太离谱了吧。” 猴子抓起第三颗果子，朝杰克和安妮扔了过来。 果子“咚”的一声砸进了独木舟里。 安妮抓起那颗果子，站起来就朝猴子扔了回去。 她没扔中。独木舟晃了晃，安妮差点掉下去。

The monkey screeched even louder. Go away! Annie shouted. You're the meanest thing in the world! The monkey stopped screeching. He looked at Annie, then he swung away into the forest. I think I heard his feelings, said Annie. Who cares? Said Jack. He shouldn't throw things. Uh -oh! Said Annie. It's raining now. What? Jack looked up. A rainbow. A raindrop hit him in the eye. Oh no! I don't believe this! Jack said. What did you expect? Said Annie. It is the rainforest. A gust of wind blew the canoe. Thunder rolled in the sky. A river is a bad place to be in a storm.

猴子的尖叫声更响了。 “滚开！” 安妮大喊道。 “你是全世界最讨厌的家伙！” 猴子停止了尖叫。 他看了安妮一眼，就荡着树枝钻进森林里去了。 “我觉得我伤到他的感情了。”安妮说。 “谁在乎啊？” 杰克说。 他本来就不该乱扔东西。 “哎呀糟了！” 安妮说。 下雨了。 “什么？” 杰克抬起头。 一道彩虹。 一滴雨砸在了他的眼睛上。 “哦不！” 这也太倒霉了吧！ 杰克说。 “不然你还想怎么样？” 安妮说。 这里可是热带雨林啊。 一阵风吹得独木舟晃了起来。 天空中响起了隆隆的雷声。 暴风雨来的时候待在河里可太危险了。

said Jack. We have to get back to shore right now. But how? said Annie. We can't wait or swim. The piranhas, the snake, and the crocodile will get us. Screeching split the air again. Oh no! said Jack. The bratty monkey was back. This time the monkey was pointing a long stick at the canoe. Jack crouched down. Was the monkey going to hurl the stick at them like a spear? Annie jumped up and faced the monkey. Watch it! He's nuts! said Jack. But the monkey just stared at Annie, and Annie just stared back at him. After a long moment, the monkey seemed to smile.

杰克说：“我们得立刻回到岸上去。” “可怎么回去啊？”安妮说，“我们不能等也不能游泳，食人鱼、蛇还有鳄鱼会抓住我们的。” 尖锐的叫声再次划破了天空。 “哦不！”杰克说，那只调皮的猴子回来了。这次猴子正举着一根长棍子指着 独木舟。杰克蹲了下来。猴子是要把棍子当矛朝他们扔过来吗？安妮跳了 起来，面对着猴子。“小心！他疯了！”杰克说。可猴子只是盯着安妮， 安妮也盯着他。过了好一会儿，猴子好像笑了一下。

Annie smiled back. What's going on? said Jack. He needs to help us. Annie said. Help us how? said Jack. The monkey held out the long stick. Annie grabbed the other end. The monkey pulled on the stick. The canoe started floating toward him. The monkey pulled the canoe all the way to the bank of the river.

安妮也对他笑了笑。 “这是怎么回事啊？”杰克说。 “他是要帮我们。” 安妮说。 “他怎么帮我们啊？”杰克说。 猴子把那根长棍子伸了过来。 安妮抓住了棍子的另一头。 猴子用力拉棍子。 独木舟开始朝着他的方向漂过去。 猴子一路把独木舟拉到了河岸边。
