你
Horrid Henry tricks and treats. Ha ha ha! Halloween! Oh, happy, happy day! Every year, Horrid Henry could not believe it. An entire day devoted to stuffing your face with sweets and playing horrid tricks. Best of all, you were supposed to stuff your face and play horrid tricks. Whoopee! Horrid Henry was armed and ready. He had loo roll, he had water pistols, he had shaving foam. Oh my, would he be playing tricks tonight! Anyone who didn't instantly hand over a fistful of sweets would get it with the foam. And woe betide any fool who gave him an apple. Horrid Henry knew how to treat rotten grown -ups like that.
淘气包亨利又要搞恶作剧、讨糖果啦。 哈哈哈! 万圣节来啦! 哦,这简直是全世界最开心的日子! 每年淘气包亨利都不敢相信有这么好的事。 整整一天都可以拼命塞糖果,还能玩各种调皮的恶作剧。 最棒的是,大家本来就盼着你吃糖果、搞恶作剧呢。 哇哦! 淘气包亨利全副武装,准备就绪。 他准备了卷筒纸、水枪,还有剃须泡沫。 天呐,今晚他可要大玩特玩恶作剧咯! 谁要是不马上递上一大把糖果,就会被喷一身泡沫。 要是哪个笨蛋敢给他苹果,那他可就倒霉咯。 淘气包亨利可知道该怎么收拾这种讨厌的大人。
His red -and -black devil costume lay ready on the bed, complete with evil mast, twinkling horns, trident and whippy tail. He'd scare everyone wearing that. "'Heh, heh, heh,' said Horrid Henry, practicing his evil laugh. "'Henry,' came a little voice outside his bedroom door. "'Come and see my new costume.' "'No,' said Henry. "'Oh, please, Henry,' said his younger brother. "'Perfect, Peter.' "'No,' said Henry. "'I'm busy.' "'You're just jealous because my costume is nicer than yours,' said Peter. "'I'm not.' "'Are too.' "'Come to think of it, what was Peter wearing? Last year he'd copied Henry's monster costume and ruined Henry's Halloween. What if he were copying Henry's devil costume? That would be just like that horrible little copycat.'
他那件红黑相间的恶魔服装已经摆在床上准备好了,配套的有邪恶的 面具、亮闪闪的犄角、三叉戟还有软乎乎的尾巴。 他穿这个肯定能把所有人都吓一大跳。 “嘿嘿嘿,”淘气包亨利边说边练习他的邪恶笑声。 “亨利,”卧室门外传来一个小小的声音。 “快来看我的新衣服呀。” “不要,”亨利说。 “哦拜托啦,亨利,”他弟弟说。 “完美彼得。” “不行,”亨利说。 “我忙着呢。” “你就是嫉妒我的衣服比你的好看,”彼得说。 “我才没有。” “你就是有。” “话说回来,彼得穿的到底是什么呀? 去年他抄了亨利的怪兽服,把亨利的万圣节搞砸了。 要是他这次又抄亨利的恶魔服怎么办? 那个讨厌的小跟屁虫绝对干得出来这种事。”
All right, you can come in for two seconds, said Henry. A big pink bouncy bunny bounded into Henry's room. It had little white bunny ears. It had a little white bunny tail. It had pink polka dots everywhere else. Horrid Henry groaned. What a stupid costume. Thank goodness he wasn't wearing it.
“好吧,你只能进来两秒钟,”亨利说。 一只圆滚滚的粉色跳跳蹦蹦兔蹦进了亨利的房间。 它长着小小的白色兔耳朵。 还有小小的白色兔尾巴。 其他地方全是粉色的波点。 淘气包亨利忍不住叹了口气。 这衣服也太蠢了吧,还好他不用穿这个。
Isn't it great?' said Perfect Peter. No! said Henry. It's horrible. You're just saying that to be mean, Henry, said Peter, bouncing up and down. I can't wait to go trick -or -treating in it tonight. Oh, no! Horrid Henry felt as if he'd been punched in the stomach. Henry would be expected to go out trick -or -treating with Peter. He, Henry, would have to walk around with a pink polka dot bunny. Everyone would see him. The shame of it. Rude Ralph would never stop teasing him. Moody Margaret would call him a bunny -wunny. How could he play tricks on people with a pink polka dot bunny following him everywhere? He was ruined. His name would be a joke. You can't wear that, said Henry desperately. Yes, I can, said Peter.
“是不是超棒呀?”完美彼得说。 “一点都不!”亨利说。 丑死了。 “你就是故意说坏话气我,亨利,”彼得边说边蹦来蹦去。 我都等不及今晚穿它去玩不给糖就捣蛋啦。 哦,完了! 淘气包亨利感觉肚子上好像挨了一拳。 大人肯定会让亨利陪着彼得一起去讨糖的。 他,堂堂亨利,居然要跟一只粉色波点兔子一起到处晃。 所有人都会看到他的。 这也太丢人了。 粗鲁拉尔夫会笑话他一辈子的。 暴脾气玛格丽特会叫他小兔兔乖乖的。 要是有个粉色波点兔子一直跟着他,他还怎么搞恶作剧啊? 他全完了。 他的名声就要变成笑话了。 “你不许穿这个,”亨利急得大喊。 “我就要穿,”彼得说。
