Story 2. Two Janets.
故事二:两个珍妮特
I'm Janet, the monitor of the class. Today, another Janet comes to our class. I never met a girl with the same name as me. What kind of girl is she? I'm Janet. I am new. I heard there was another Janet here. I'm curious. What kind of girl is she?
我是珍妮特,是班上的班长。 今天,另一个珍妮特来到了我们班。 我从来没见过和我同名的女孩。 她是个什么样的女孩呀? 我是珍妮特,是新来的。 我听说这里还有另一个珍妮特。 我好好奇呀。 她是个什么样的女孩呢?
I hate to have another Janet in the same class. To make a difference, I have a new name. Little Janet. Huh. Have you ever heard any monitor called Little? Just because I'm taller, I am Big Janet now. I don't like how it sounds. I hate having another Janet in my class.
我可不想班上有另一个珍妮特。 为了区分开,我有了个新名字。 小珍妮特。 哼。 你听说过哪个班长叫“小”什么的吗? 就因为我长得高,我现在成了大珍妮特。 我一点都不喜欢这个称呼。 我真讨厌班上有另一个珍妮特。
That day, Big Janet surprised Miss Green and the whole class. She'd solved the puzzle of the day in mathematics class at the same time as me. I was the quickest student before. Now I am not the only number one student anymore. I figured out the award -winning puzzle in mathematics class today. It was interesting to hear Miss Green say, The two Janets are winners. I have to say, Little Janet is very talented.
那天,大珍妮特让格林老师和全班都大吃一惊。 她和我同时解出了数学课上的当日难题。 以前我是做题最快的学生。 现在我不再是唯一的第一名了。 我解出了今天数学课上的得奖难题。 听到格林老师说的话可有意思了: 两个珍妮特都是赢家哦。 我得说,小珍妮特可真有天分。
Big Janet is not only good at mathematics, she is also a good painter. Maybe I should ask her to help in our class newspaper. Will she join us? I appreciate little Janet. She is also a good painter and the chief editor of the class newspaper. I want to give a hand with the newspaper. Will she take me?
大珍妮特不光数学好,画画也很棒。 或许我该请她帮忙做班报,她会愿意加入我们吗? 我很欣赏小珍妮特,她画画也很棒,还是班报的主编呢。 我想帮忙做班报,她会愿意让我加入吗?
I didn't know Big Janet also likes stray cats. I met her several times at the stray cat centre. Interesting. I met little Janet at the stray cat centre. It seems that she comes here often. Maybe she is easy going.
我之前都不知道大珍妮特也喜欢流浪猫。 我在流浪猫救助中心碰到过她好几次。 真有意思呀。 我在流浪猫救助中心碰到了小珍妮特。 看来她经常来这儿呢。 说不定她性格很好相处呢。
