Getting Excited

Monkey me and the pet show

猴子的我和宠物展

Chapter 1 Getting Excited " Slow down, Clyde! " Claudia yelled. I grabbed a banana off the kitchen table. I stuffed it into my mouth and raced out the front door. I dashed across my neighbor's front yard. Then I jumped over their flower garden.

第一章兴奋起来 “慢点，克莱德!”克劳迪娅喊道。 我从厨房桌子上抓起一根香蕉。我把它塞进嘴里，然后冲出了前门。 我飞快地穿过邻居家的前院。然后我跳过了他们的花园。

Well, almost. I landed on the last flower . . . or two. I think. I didn't have time to look back. I had to keep moving. “ Wait up, Clyde! " Claudia said. Ha! I ran even faster. I hoped to lose my twin sister. But two blocks later, she grabbed my arm. " Are you crazy, Clyde?" she asked. " No, " I said. " Or sick?" Claudia asked. “ No. " I looked at her. " Why?"

好吧，几乎是。 我落在了最后一朵……或者两朵花上。我想。我没有时间回头看。我必须继续前进。 “等等我，克莱德!”克劳迪娅说。 哈!我跑得更快了。我希望甩掉我的双胞胎妹妹。但是两个街区后，她抓住了我的胳膊。 “你疯了吗，克莱德?”她问。 “没有，”我说。 “或者生病了?”克劳迪娅问。 “没有。”我看着她。“为什么这么问?”

" Because you're never in a hurry to get to school, " Claudia said. " And I'm not today, either, " I said. But I was. It was class picture day! Just thinking about it made me excited. And whenever I get excited, I can't stop moving! " See you later, alligator! " I broke free of Claudia's grip on my arm. " Oh, no you don't! " She pulled on the back of my shirt and spun me around.

“因为你从来都不急于去学校，”克劳迪娅说。 “我今天也不急，”我说。 但我其实是急的。 今天是班级合影日! 光是想到这个就让我兴奋不已。而且每当我兴奋起来，我就停不下来! “再见了，短吻鳄!”我从克劳迪娅的手中挣脱出来。 “哦，不，你别想跑!”她拉住我衬衫的后摆，把我转了过来。

" You need to stay calm, " Claudia said. " Why?" I asked. Claudia stared. “ You know why! " " No, I don't! " I said. " Yes, you do! " she said. " Ha! " I said. " I don't know anything! " Claudia tried hard not to laugh. I tried hard to think of something better to say. " Oh, you mean the monkey me. " Claudia nodded. " And it's going to get you in trouble, " she said. " Again! " “ Ha! " I said. But I knew my sister was right.

“你需要保持冷静，”克劳迪娅说。 “为什么?”我问。 克劳迪娅盯着我。“你知道为什么!” “不，我不知道!”我说。 “是的，你知道!”她说。 “哈!”我说。“我什么都不知道!” 克劳迪娅努力不笑出来。 我努力想出更好的话来说。“哦，你是说变成猴子的我。” 克劳迪娅点点头。“这会给你带来麻烦的，”她说。“再一次!” “哈!”我说。但我知道我的妹妹是对的。

It all started last week at the museum. I WAS HUNGRY! AND I ATE A BANANA THAT WAS PART OF DR. WALLY'S EXPERIMENT. LATER, WHEN I GOT SUPER EXCITED. . . I TURNED INTO A MONKEY?! Dr. Wally said his experiment changed the banana. He said eating the banana changed the way my body works.

这一切都始于上周在博物馆。 我饿了! 我吃了一个香蕉，那是沃尔利博士实验的一部分。 后来，当我变得超级兴奋时... 我变成了一只猴子? 沃尔利博士说他的实验改变了那个香蕉。他说吃下那个香蕉改变了我身体运作的方式。
