Chopper

chapter 2 Chopper Claudia held onto my shoulders. Then she stepped in front of me. " Don't worry, " I told her. “ I'll try to slow down. " My sister's eyes grew large as she spotted something behind me. “ No, Clyde! " she yelled. " RUN! "

第二章直升机 克劳迪娅抓住我的肩膀。然后她站到了我前面。 “别担心，”我告诉她。“我会试着慢下来的。” 我妹妹的眼睛睁得大大的，因为她在我身后发现了什么东西。 “不，克莱德!”她喊道。“快跑!”

I felt the sidewalk behind me shake. I heard the barking. And the laughter. I turned and looked. " Oh, no! " I yelled. Then I ran as fast as I could in the other direction. I raced to the nearest tree. I reached for a branch and pulled myself up. I gasped for air as I looked down at Roz, the class bully. And at Chopper, her bulldog. " Look what we caught! " Roz said. She pointed at me and laughed. Chopper barked.

我感觉到身后的人行道在震动。 我听到了吠叫声。 还有笑声。 我转过身看了看。 “哦，不!”我喊道。然后我尽我所能地朝另一个方向跑得飞快。 我跑到最近的一棵树下。我伸手抓住一个树枝，把自己拉了上去。 我喘着气，低头看着罗兹，班上的恶霸。还有她的斗牛犬，乔珀。 “看看我们抓到了什么!”罗兹说。她指着我大笑。 乔珀叫了起来。

I gripped the tree trunk I was holding even tighter. Roz is in my class at school and is always picking on me. And now, she had trained her dog to be mean to me, too. My knees shook as Chopper circled the tree's trunk. He growled. And grunted. Then he looked up at me and grinned like I was about to become his breakfast. " Leave Clyde alone! " Claudia yelled. She stepped in front of Roz. " Or what?" Roz asked. " Or well all be late for school. " Claudia glared at Roz. Roz glared back.

我紧紧抓住了我攀爬的树干。 罗兹在学校和我同班，总是找我麻烦。现在，她也训练她的狗对我凶狠。 当乔珀绕着树干转圈时，我的膝盖开始发抖。 他咆哮着。又咕哝着。然后他抬头看着我，咧嘴一笑，好像我即将成为他的早餐。 “别管克莱德!”克劳迪娅喊道。她站在罗兹面前。 “不然呢?”罗兹问。 “不然我们都会迟到的。”克劳迪娅怒视着罗兹。 罗兹也怒视回去。

Then Roz looked at me and laughed. “ Come on, Chopper! " she said. She put the leash on her dog and pulled. My knees were still shaking as I watched the growling bulldog leave. I was afraid of Chopper. Roz looked at me and yelled, “ See you later, little bug! " I was afraid of Roz, too.

然后罗兹看着我笑了。“来吧，乔珀!”她说。她给狗戴上了牵引绳，然后拉了拉。 我看着那只咆哮的斗牛犬离开，膝盖仍在发抖。 我怕乔珀。 罗兹看着我喊道:“待会儿见，小虫子!” 我也怕罗兹。
