Something Special

Monkey me and the new neighbor

“猴子的我与新邻居”

Chapter 1 Something Special I looked in my desk drawers. And under my bed. And on my shelves. " You should have looked for and found something yesterday, Clyde, " Claudia, my twin sister, said. “ Like I did. " I raced downstairs and into the kitchen.

第一章特别的东西 我查看了我的书桌抽屉。床下。还有书架上。 “你本应该昨天就去找并找到一些东西的，克莱德，”克劳迪娅，我的双胞胎姐姐说，“就像我做的那样。” 我跑下楼，冲进厨房。

" Sit and eat, Clyde! " Mom said. " I can't. I need to find something special for today's show-and-tell. " I grabbed a banana off the table and took a bite. " Three weeks ago I brought my dinosaur model, " I said. " And two weeks ago I brought my toy Golden Monkey. " " And last week, " Claudia said, " you brought a banana. " She chuckled. " Don't remind me! " I said. But my sister was right. Like usual. I had forgotten to bring something to last week's show-and-tell. All I could find to show was the banana from my lunch bag.

“坐下吃饭，克莱德!”妈妈说。 “我不能。我需要为今天的展示和讲述找一些特别的东西。”我从桌上抓起一根香蕉咬了一口。 “三周前我带了我的恐龙模型，”我说。“两周前我带了我的玩具金猴。” “上周，”克劳迪娅说，“你带了一根香蕉。”她轻声笑了。 “别提醒我!”我说。 但是我姐姐是对的。像往常一样。 我忘记了为上周的展示和讲述带东西。我能找到展示的只有午餐袋里的香蕉。

I like bananas. But everyone in my class laughed. And laughed. HA! HA! HA! It had made me want to run and hide. That's why I needed to bring something super special this time.

我喜欢香蕉。 但是我班上的每个人都笑了。 笑了又笑。 哈!哈!哈! 这让我想要逃跑并躲起来。那就是为什么我这次需要带一些特别的东西。

I looked around the kitchen and saw some pink plastic flowers. A cup with a clown face on it. One cookie left in the cookie jar. I reached toward it. " Why don't you bring your pet monkey to show-and-tell, Clyde?" Mom said. I stopped reaching. Mom smiled. " A monkey is special. " " Yes. But. . . " Ilooked at Claudia. She didn't know what to say, either. It started two weeks ago. My class was on a field trip to the science museum.

我环顾厨房，看到了一些粉红色的塑料花。一个杯子上画着小丑的脸。饼干罐里剩下一块饼干。 我伸手去拿。 “克莱德，你为什么不把你的宠物猴子带到展示和讲述课上呢?”妈妈说。 我停止了伸手。 妈妈笑了。“猴子很特别。” “是的。但是.”我看着克劳迪娅。她也不知道该说什么。 这一切都始于两周前。我们班去科学博物馆进行实地考察。

I WAS HUNGRY AND ATE A BANANA THAT WAS PART OF DR. WALLY'S SCIENCE MUSEUM EXPERIMENT. LATER, WHEN I GOT SUPER EXCITED. . . I CHANGED INTO A MONKEY?! BUT LAST WEEK, MOM SAW THE MONKEY ME. 50 CLAUDIA TOLD HER. . . HE IS CLYDE'S AND MY PET MONKEY.

我饿了，吃了一个香蕉，那是沃尔利博士科学博物馆实验的一部分。 后来，当我超级兴奋时... 我变成了一只猴子?! 但是上周，妈妈看到了猴子的我。所以克劳迪娅告诉她... 他是克莱德和我的宠物猴子。
