Horrid Henry's Computer

Horrid Henry's Computer. No, no, no, no, no, said Dad. No, no, no, no, no, said Mum. The new computer is only for work, said Dad. My work, Mum's work and school work. Not for playing silly games, said Mum. But everyone plays games on their computer, said Henry. Not in this house, said Dad. He looked at the computer and frowned. Hmm, he said, how do you turn this thing off?

淘气包亨利的电脑 爸爸说：“不行、不行、不行、不行、不行！” 妈妈说：“不行、不行、不行、不行、不行！” 爸爸说：“新电脑只能用来办公。” 我办公用，妈妈办公用，还有做学校作业用。 妈妈说：“不能用来玩那些傻乎乎的游戏。” 亨利说：“可是大家都在电脑上玩游戏呀。” 爸爸说：“咱们家不行。” 他皱着眉盯着电脑。 他嘟囔着：“嗯，这玩意儿要怎么关啊？”

Like this," said Horrid Henry. He pushed the off button. Ah -ha! said Dad. It was so unfair! Rude Ruff had intergalactic robot rebellion. Dizzy Dave had Snake Master's Revenge 3. Moody Margaret had Zippy Zappers. Horrid Henry had be a spelling champion, virtual classroom, and whoopee for numbers. Aside from Beefy Burt, who'd been given Counting Made Easy for Christmas, no one else had such awful software. What's the point of finally getting a computer if you can't play games? said Horrid Henry. You can improve your spelling, said Perfect Peter, and write essays. I've already written one for school tomorrow.

淘气包亨利说：“像这样呀。” 他按了关机键。 爸爸说：“啊哈！” 这也太不公平了！ 粗鲁拉夫有《星际机器人叛乱》游戏。 晕晕戴夫有《蛇王复仇3》。 暴脾气玛格丽特有《极速冲击波》。 淘气包亨利只有《拼写小冠军》、《虚拟课堂》还有《数字欢乐多》。 除了壮壮伯特圣诞收到了《轻松学计数》，其他人都没有这么烂的软件。 淘气包亨利说：“好不容易有了电脑，却不能玩游戏，那有什么用啊？” 乖乖彼得说：“你可以提升拼写能力呀，还能写作文。” 我已经把明天要交的作文写好啦。

"'I don't want to improve my spelling,' screamed Henry. "'I want to play games.' "'I don't,' said Perfect Peter. "'Unless it's name that vegetable, of course.' "'Quite right, Peter,' said Mum. "'You're the meanest parents in the world, and I hate you,' shrieked Henry. "'You're the best parents in the world, and I love you,' said Perfect Peter.' "'Horrid Henry had had enough. "'He leapt on Peter, snarling. "'He was the Loch Ness Monster gobbling up a thrashing duck.'

亨利大喊：“我才不想提升什么拼写能力！” “我要玩游戏！” 乖乖彼得说：“我才不想玩游戏。” “当然啦，要是‘猜蔬菜名字’的游戏就可以。” 妈妈说：“彼得说得太对啦。” 亨利尖叫道：“你们是全世界最坏的爸妈，我恨你们！” 乖乖彼得说：“你们是全世界最好的爸妈，我爱你们。” 淘气包亨利受够了。 他嘶吼着扑向彼得。 他现在就是尼斯湖水怪，要一口吞掉这只扑腾的小鸭子。

Ow! squealed Peter. Go to your room Henry! shouted dad. You're banned from the computer for a week. Oh, say about that muttered Horrid Henry slamming his bedroom door. Snore, snore, snore. Horrid Henry sneaked past mum and dad's room and slipped downstairs. There was the new computer. Henry sat down in front of it and looked longingly at the blank screen. How could he get some games? He had 53p saved up. Not even enough for Snake Master's Revenge 1, he thought miserably. Everyone he knew had fun on their computers. Everyone except him. He loved zapping aliens. He loved marshalling armies.

彼得尖叫：“哎哟！”爸爸大吼：“亨利，回你房间去！你一周都不许碰电脑。” 淘气包亨利“砰”的一声摔上卧室门，嘟囔道：“哼，走着瞧。” 呼噜、呼噜、呼噜。淘气包亨利偷偷溜过爸妈的房间，轻手轻脚下了楼。 新电脑就在那儿。亨利坐到电脑前，眼巴巴地看着黑着的屏幕。 他要怎么才能弄到游戏呢？他攒了53便士，连《蛇王复仇1》都买不起，他沮丧地想。 他认识的所有人都在电脑上玩得开心，只有他不行。他最喜欢打外星人，最喜欢指挥军队打仗了。

He loved ruling the world, but no, his yucky parents would only let him have educational games. Ugh. When he was king, anyone who wrote an educational game would be fed to the lions. Horrid Henry sighed and switched on the computer. Maybe some games were hidden on the hard disk, he thought hopefully. Mum and Dad were scared of computers and wouldn't know how to look. The word PASSWORD flashed up on the screen. I know a good password, thought Horrid Henry. Quickly he typed in SMELLY SOCKS.

他最喜欢统治世界，可他讨厌的爸妈只让他玩教育类游戏。 呃。 等他当了国王，所有做教育类游戏的人都要被扔去喂狮子。 淘气包亨利叹了口气，打开了电脑。 说不定硬盘里藏着什么游戏呢，他满心期待地想。 爸妈都怕用电脑，肯定不知道怎么找隐藏的内容。 屏幕上跳出了“请输入密码”的字样。 我知道个超棒的密码，淘气包亨利心想。 他飞快地输入了“臭袜子”。
