Yesterday I woke up and Bob was crawling around MY ROOM licking MY JEWELRY...昨天,我一觉醒来,发现鲍勃正在我的房间里满地乱爬,起劲地舔着我的首饰。So I shouted, GET OUT OF MY ROOM!
And that was the start of MY NO, NO, NO DAY.
Then I came downstairs and I saw THAT EGG.I cried and cried and said, I CAN T EAT THAT!And Mommy said, "You could eat it last week. Look at Bob eating his mashed banana."妈妈说:“上礼拜你能吃下啊。看看鲍勃,他还能吃香蕉泥呢。”After the TERRIBLE EGG I didn t like my shoes either.So I took them off all by myself, shouting, NO SHOES!
And then we had to go shopping and Mommy said, "Please stop wriggling, Bella."接着,我们得去买东西。妈妈说:“不要扭来扭去了,贝拉。”But I couldn t stop wriggling and in the end I shouted, GET ME OUT!Mommy said, "You will give Bob an earache. And you are giving me a headache."妈妈说:“鲍勃的耳朵会疼的,而你已经让我头疼了。”And Bob poked me and said, "ear."
At lunchtime Sasha and her mommy came to play and to have some peanut butter and grapes and a cookie.午饭时,萨拉和她妈妈过来玩儿,吃了花生酱、葡萄和一块饼干。
Then I couldn t play nicely and I kept saying, NO! YOU CAN T BE PRINCESSES!这下我没法好好玩儿了,还一直冲萨拉说:“不行!你不能当公主!”And in the end Sasha and her mommy went home.
In the afternoon it was my ballet lesson. I said, BALLET IS TOOO ITCHY!下午是我的芭蕾舞课时间。我说了句:“跳芭蕾舞太太太痒了!”But I was very loud, and Mrs.Clark stopped playing the piano and Miss Louisa said, "Dear, oh dear, perhaps you should sit in the corner then."我的声音有点儿大,克拉克夫人的钢琴声停了下来。路易斯小姐对我说:“哦,亲爱的,也许你应该去角落里坐会儿。”
On the way home we met the lady who lives next door and she said that Bob was the sweetest thing she d seen all day, and then she said, "And how is Bella?"回家的路上,我们碰到了邻居家的阿姨,她说鲍勃是她一整天里见过的最可爱的小宝贝,然后她说:“贝拉怎么样啊?”I was a long way behind so I had to shout, I HAVE A HURTING FOOT!And mommy said could I keep my voice down and could I PLEASE stop lying on the sidewalk.
Then it was time for my supper and my bath.But those peas were TOO HOT!And our bath was TOO COLD!
After that I rolled and rolled and said, NO BED NO NO NO NO BED NO NO!我在地上滚来滚去,还嚷着:“我不睡觉,不睡,我就不睡觉,就不!”And Mommy said, "Well, I think someone needs to go to bed."
But I rolled all over my room and then I rolled into Bob s room and I said, BED IS FOR BABIES!可我在房间里满地打滚,还滚到了鲍勃的屋里。我说:“小宝宝才睡床呢!”And then I yawned a little yawn.
Then I crawled into my room, and Mommy said, "Who wants a story?"But she came into my room anyway and we cuddled up and had my best story about fairies and cake.可她还是走进了我的房间,我们依偎在一起,妈妈讲了我最喜欢的仙女和蛋糕的故事。
I yawned again and I said, very quietly, "TODAY WAS A VERY BAD DAY, MOMMY. SORRY."我打了个哈欠……我又打了个哈欠,轻声说:“今天是大喊大叫的一天,对不起,妈妈。”And she kissed me good night and said, "I know. We all have those days sometimes, but perhaps you will be more cheerful tomorrow!"她给我一个晚安吻,说:“我知道,我们都会碰到这样的日子,说不定明天你就会快活起来!”
I WAS! I WAS! I was cheerful...
