  A Kids' Riot

  打架斗殴

  It was no use talking anymore. They had already argued until they were blue in the face. Now it was time to fight and Andy was going to teach Cal a lesson that he would never forget! All because Cal had broken Andy's tape player!

  再说也是没有用的。他们已经争得面红耳赤。现在是打架的时候了,安迪准备教训一下卡尔,让他永远也忘不了!这一切都是因为卡尔弄坏了安迪的磁带放送机!

  It was mine in the first place! Cal had said. "Pick up a telephone directory and call my mom! She'll tell you the truth!"

  “那东西根本就是我的!”卡尔说。“拿电话簿给我妈妈打个电话。她会把真相告诉你!”

  But Andy was sure it was his! Now he would tear Cal's heart out just as Cal had torn his tape player to pieces!

  可是安迪就认为是他的!现在他要像卡尔把他的磁带放送机撕成碎片一样让卡尔伤心!

  Andy hit first with a special Karate kick that he had taught himself to do by watching TV!

  安迪首先用一个特殊的空手道动作发起进攻,这个动作他是从电视上自学的!

  Then they grabbed each other and rolled around on the ground. When they bumped into a telephone pole they fell apart. Then one of Cal's friends jumped in on the fight and hit Andy with a telephone book! Seeing that others were teaming up against him as well, Andy called his friends to fight too. The street was teeming with kids fighting. After Cal and Andy fell in a pool of mud off to the side, no one could tell them apart!

  接着他们互相抓住在地上扭打起来,碰到一个电话线杆他们才分开。然后卡尔的一个朋友加人了这场打斗,他用一个电话簿砸了安迪一下!看到其他人合起来对付他,安迪也让他的朋友参战。街上很快就挤满了打架的孩子。卡尔和安迪倒在旁边的一个泥坑里,没人能分出他们谁是谁!

  When a police siren rang, Andy tore himself away from Cal and ran. They all ran! Some even broke windows as they ran or tore down signs on stores.

  当警笛声响起的时候,安迪勉强离开卡尔逃跑了。大家都撒腿就跑!有几个甚至在跑的时候打烂了窗户或者把商店的牌子弄坏了。

  What had started as a fight had become a riot! Then one of the kids, who could actually tell time, yelled that they were late to school.

  开始是群架,这会儿变成了骚乱!后来一个能够识钟的孩子大声喊上学要迟到了!

  Fourth grade started late that day!

  那天四年级的课很晚才开始!
