Surprise!

chapter 5 Surprise! The school day was over. And after we sprinted out of the building, I changed back. “ That was close! " Claudia said. " And fun, " I said as I slowed down a little and looked at my body.

第五章惊喜! 学校的一天结束了。 我们从大楼里冲出来后，我变回了原样。 “好险啊!”克劳迪娅说。 “也很有趣，”我说，当我稍微放慢速度，看了看自己的身体。

I had no monkey hair. Or ears. Or tail. I was me again! I quickly dressed. " Wait up, Claudia! " I yelled. I watched her run farther and farther ahead. She is faster than I am. But I am trickier. I cut across my neighbor's lawn and almost beat her to our front door. Maybe next time. We raced up the steps and into Claudia's bedroom. She shut the door and sat on her desk chair. I flopped onto her bed. " Clyde! " she yelled. I sat up and looked at my sister. She is super neat. Her bedroom is in perfect order. It's the opposite of mine.

我没有猴子的毛发。也没有猴子的耳朵。也没有尾巴。 我又变成了我自己! 我迅速穿上衣服。 “等等我，克劳迪娅!”我喊道。我看着她越跑越远。她比我跑得快。 但我更狡猾。 我穿过邻居的草坪，差点就比她先跑到我们家门口。 也许下次吧。 我们跑上楼梯，冲进了克劳迪娅的卧室。她关上门，坐在书桌前的椅子上。我扑倒在她的床上。 “克莱德!”她喊道。 我坐起来，看着我的姐姐。她非常整洁。她的卧室井井有条。 这和我的房间完全相反。

“ Stop bouncing, Clyde! " Claudia said. " I'm not! " But then I looked and saw that I was. And I saw it was driving my sister crazy! Claudia crossed her arms. “ Can't you sit still?" " Of course I can, " I said. I grinned and bounced higher. " I just choose not to. " " Clyde! " Claudia yelled. I jumped off the bed and grabbed Claudia's doll dressed in a space suit. I raced around the room waving it in the air.

“别跳了，克莱德!”克劳迪娅说。 “我没有!”但然后我看了看，发现自己确实在跳。而且我意识到这让我姐姐快疯了! 克劳迪娅交叉着双臂。“你就不能坐一会儿吗?” “当然可以，”我说。我咧嘴一笑，跳得更高。“我只是选择不这么做。” “克莱德!”克劳迪娅大喊。 我从床上跳下来，抓起克劳迪娅穿着太空服的洋娃娃。我绕着房间跑，在空中挥舞着它。

" Clyde! " Claudia yelled. Claudia plans to become an astronaut and fly to the moon in a rocket. Sometimes, I wish she was already there. " If you can't behave, Clyde, " Claudia said, " then leave! " " Good idea. " I headed toward the door. " Because I want to look at this. " Claudia held up the photo disc. I quickly stopped. And turned. I could feel my heart race as I followed my sister to her computer. “ I can't wait to see who ruined the class picture, " I said. " You don't know who?" Claudia asked. " No, " I said.

“克莱德!”克劳迪娅喊道。 克劳迪娅计划成为一名宇航员，乘坐火箭飞往月球。有时候，我真希望她已经在那里了。 “如果你不能表现得规矩点，克莱德，”克劳迪娅说，“那就出去!” “好主意。”我朝门口走去。 “因为我想看看这个。”克劳迪娅举起了照片盘。 我迅速停下脚步，转过身来。 我能感觉到自己的心跳加速，跟着姐姐走向她的电脑。“我迫不及待想看看是谁毁了班级合影，”我说。 “你不知道是谁?”克劳迪娅问。 “不知道，”我说。

Claudia slid the disc into her computer. The class picture popped onto the screen. " It was the monkey me! " I said. Claudia nodded. “ So it's good Miss Plum didn't see this picture. " “ Or Principal Murphy, " I said. “ Or Mom and Dad. " Claudia looked to make sure her bedroom door was closed. “ But it is funny. " I grinned and pointed to the computer screen. “ There's a monkey in our class picture! "

克劳迪娅把照片盘滑进电脑。班级合影突然出现在屏幕上。 “是猴子的我!”我说。 克劳迪娅点点头。“所以幸好普拉姆小姐没有看到这张照片。” “或者墨菲校长，”我说。 “或者爸爸妈妈。”克劳迪娅看了看，确保她的卧室门是关着的。 “但这确实很有趣。”我咧嘴笑着指向电脑屏幕。“我们的班级合影里有一只猴子!”

Claudia looked closer and grinned, too. Then she giggled. Then, we both laughed. And laughed. Claudia rolled on the floor. I bounced on her bed. Neither of us could stop laughing, until- " Claudia? Clyde?" I spun around and looked. My mouth dropped open. " Mom?"

克劳迪娅凑近了看，也咧嘴笑了。 然后她咯咯笑了起来。 接着，我们俩都笑了。笑个不停。 克劳迪娅在地板上打滚。我在她的床上蹦跳。我们俩都笑得停不下来，直到一 “克劳迪娅?克莱德?” 我转过身，张大了嘴巴。“妈妈?”
