Heh.我向雪利·斯道尔斯展开攻势I asked out Sherry Stalls.我想问你愿不愿意...I was wondering if you wanted to go这个招数的绝妙之处在于To full appreciate the brilliance of this plan雪利·斯道尔斯是朱莉的眼中钉you have to understand that Juli hated Sherry Stalls但我始终想不通其中的缘由though I never understood why.雪利长发飘飘为人和善Sherry was nice, friendly and she had a lot of hair.我妈之前一直不让我打耳洞后来我拼命求她At first, my mother wouldn't let me get my earspierced, but I begged我原本一心指望只要和雪利吃吃饭The idea was that Sherry would eat with me散散步就能让朱莉知难而退maybe we'd walk around together, and hopefullyJuli would lose interest.她还是不允许我16岁前打耳洞But I still can't get the hoops till I'm 16.太可惜了Oh, that's a shame.米娜妮也想打耳洞So Melanie wanted to get her ears pierced,但她老妈也不是省油的灯but of course her mother said no.她就在家大发雷霆So she threw a fit把约翰尼·马蒂斯的精选辑给砸了and smashed her Johnny Mathis Greatest Hitsalbum结果就被禁足了and she got grounded,连我的睡衣派对都来不了so now she can't come to my pajama sleepoverparty.事情进展相当顺利Things were unfolding quite nicely.你的科学实验打算怎么做?What are you doing for your science project?直到我所谓的挚友加利特·埃恩德That is, until my supposed best friend, Garrett Einbinder开始打起了雪利的主意took an interest in Sherry himself.我想展示各种护发素I was thinking of showing how split ends react如何修复头发分叉with different hair conditioners.太棒了That's fascinating.俗话说得好重色必轻友加利特这个叛徒Loyalty gave way to desire and Garrett, the turncoat向雪利全盘托出我的计划told Sherry what I was up to.混蛋Jerk.她自然很是生气She didn't take it well.至于朱莉Word got back to Juli,她自然又开始对我故技重施and pretty soon she started up with the goo-goo eyes again.而且还变本加厉Only this time it was worse.居然开始嗅我She started sniffing me.你没听错她居然用鼻子嗅我That's right, sniffing me.搞什么飞机啊?What was that all about?我只能期望来年能摆脱魔掌My only consolation was that next year would be different.但愿升入初中后Junior high, bigger school. 不用再和她同班Maybe we'd be in different classes彻底结束我的噩梦and it would finally, finally be over.见到布莱斯·罗斯基的第一眼我便怦然心动了The first day I met Bryce Loski, I flipped.他的双眸让我如痴如醉It was those eyes, something in those dazzlingeyes.我们一起推吧?Y ou wanna push this one together?那时候他们刚搬到我家隔壁His family had just moved into the neighborhood我过去帮他们搬东西and I'd gone over to help them.我在车里刚呆了2分钟I'd been in the van all of two minutes他老爸就让她去帮他妈妈when his dad sent him off to help his mom.我知道他并不想离开I could see he didn't wanna go.于是我追上前去So I chased after him to see问他能不能先玩一会再进屋if we could play a little before he got trappedinside.接着他便用力握着我的手The next thing I know, he's holding my hand与我深情凝视and looking right into my eyes.那一刹那我的心停止了跳动My heart stopped.这一刻到来了吗?Was this it?是时候迎来我的初吻了吗?Would this be my first kiss?没想到他妈妈却出来了你好呀But then his mother came out. Well, hello.他感到无比羞愧脸都红了And he was so embarrassed, his cheeks turnedcompletely red.那晚我躺在床上不停幻想初吻的场景I went to bed that night thinking of the kiss thatmight have been.我知道他对我动心了I mean, it was clear he had feelings for me,只是怯于表达爱意but he was just too shy to show them.妈妈说过男孩子都会这样My mother said boys were like that.我决定帮他克服心中的恐惧So I decided to help him out.布莱斯? 你也在这啊Bryce? Y ou're here.我会竭尽所能帮他彻底释放自我I would give him plenty of opportunity to get overhis shyness.六年级那年我学着有所收敛By the sixth grade, I'd learned to control myself.没想到半路却杀出个雪利·斯道尔斯Then Sherry Stalls entered the picture.雪利·斯道尔斯就是一人尽可夫的长舌妇Sherry Stalls was nothing but a whiny, gossipy,backstabbing flirt.头发长见识短All hair and no substance.而且她竟然...And there she was和布莱斯十指紧扣那可是我家布莱斯holding hands with Bryce. My Bryce.我的初吻白马王子The one who was walking around with my firstkiss.我决定对她视而不见依照布莱斯的品性My solution was to ignore her. I knew a boy ofBryce's caliber总有一天能意识到雪利有多浅薄无知would eventually see through a shallow conniverlike Sherry Stalls.如我所料他俩一周后便分手了It took all of a week. They broke up at recess.她也不看看自己几斤几两She didn't take it well.自从布莱斯摆脱了朱莉的魔掌Now that Bryce was out of Sherry's evil clutches,对我也变得更为友善he started being nicer to me.嗨朱莉嗨布莱斯Hi, Juli.

Why's that?你怎么突然问这个?Why do you wanna know?朱莉·贝克登上梅菲尔德时报Now, Juli Baker did not wind up in The Mayfield Times可不是因为她天赋异禀for being an eighth-grade Einstein.而是因为她赖在无花果树上No, she got front-page coverage because she refused死活不肯下来to climb out of a sycamore tree.朱莉·贝克和那棵白痴无花果树Juli Baker and that stupid sycamore tree.她认为那棵树She always thought it was God's gift是上帝对我们的恩赐to our little corner of the universe. 嘿布莱斯过来和我们一起爬树不?Hey, Bryce.

Y ou have to look at the whole landscape.什么意思?What does that mean?一幅画绝非简单拼凑就能完成A painting is more than the sum of its parts.一头牛只是一头牛A cow by itself is just a cow.草地也只长满了青草和花朵A meadow by itself is just grass, flowers.阳光照进大树的枝桠亦不过缕缕薄光And the sun peeking through the trees is just abeam of light.但你若能将它们衔接拼凑But you put them all together却能收获意想不到的成果and it can be magic.我对他的话一知半解直到一天下午I didn't really understand what he was saying until one afternoon我爬上无花果树的枝头when I was up in the sycamore tree.试图去捡风筝I was rescuing a kite.它挂得很高我从没爬过这么高It was a long way up, higher than I'd ever been.但我发现爬得越高眼前的景象便愈发迷人And the higher I got, the more amazed I was by the view.沁人心脾的微风迎面扑来I began to notice how wonderful the breeze smelled.夹杂着阳光和野草的芬芳Like sunshine and wild grass.我忍不住大口呼吸I couldn't stop breathing it in让肺里溢满甜美醉人的气息filling my lungs with the sweetest smell I'd ever known.嘿我的风筝被你找到了Hey, you found my kite.布莱斯你真该上来看看Bryce, you should come up here.太美了It's so beautiful.不行我扭伤了...I can't.

Y ou don't have to come up this high.Just a little ways.布莱斯求求你了Bryce, please. Please.从那之后一切都变得模糊起来What happened after that was a blur.似乎整个镇上的人都围了过来It seemed like the whole town was there.但我一直坚持不肯下去But still I wouldn't move.爸爸后来赶了过来Then my father showed up.他说服消防员架了楼梯爬上来He talked a fireman into letting him come up towhere I was.宝贝儿我们下去吧Sweetie, it's time to come down.爸爸别让他们砍树Daddy, please don't let them do this.宝贝儿爸爸你看啊Sweetie Daddy, look.在这里可以俯瞰整个世界Y ou can see everything.

Huh?你知道答案是什么吗?Do you know the answer?伯罗奔尼撒战争?Uh, the Peloponnesian War?这也许是某个问题的答案I'm sure that's the answer to something但我问的是菱形的面积but I was looking for the area of a rhomboid.其实菱形三角形之类的Somehow, rhomboids and isosceles right triangles 在我看来并不重要didn't seem so important.我开始骑车上学只为避开那个伤心地I rode my bike so I wouldn't have to pass by the stump那里曾经矗立着世上最美的无花果树that used to be the earth's most magnificent sycamore tree.但不管我怎么努力我对它始终心有念想But no matter what I did, I couldn't stop thinking about it.你还好吧?Are you okay?不就是一棵树么It was just a tree.那不仅只是一棵树No, it wasn't just a tree.希望你能将树梢的美好时光永存心底I never want you to forget how you felt when you were up there.谢谢你爸爸Thanks, Dad.我每天醒来就会看着这幅画It was the first thing I saw every morning 它亦每天伴着我入眠and the last thing I saw before I went to sleep.直到有一天看着它我不再泪眼朦胧And once I could look at it without crying我领悟到了更深层的寓意I saw more than the tree and what being up theremeant to me.我的世界观开始有了细微的变化I saw the day that my view of things around mestarted changing.我不禁问自己我对布莱斯的感情是否一如往日?And I wondered, did I still feel the same thingsabout Bryce?我向来对鸡蛋不感冒I've never been a huge fan of eggs.既不喜欢也说不上讨厌I mean, I could always just take them or leavethem.但那天在斯凯勒·布朗家的车库里That is, until one day in Skyler Brown's garage让我对鸡蛋的厌恶根深蒂固when my feelings about eggs were solidified.嘿伙计们艾德娜的早餐有着落喽Hey, hey, hey. Guys. Edna's found her breakfast.黏糊糊软趴趴的动物喜欢的食物I mean, if a slimy reptile found them appetizing我想想都觉得恶心there was certainly no place for them in my diet.天啊太给力了Oh, man, that's so cool.她连嚼都不用嚼省时又省心She doesn't even have to chew. I mean, think of allthe time you'd save.都怨我姐姐丽奈特I could've gone my whole life not knowing thatsnakes eat eggs raw非要来找斯凯勒·布朗商量联赛的事if it hadn't been for Lynetta.要不我这辈子都不想看蛇活吞鸡蛋She had a major-league thing for Skyler Brown.真够恶心的I think it's gross.他和朱莉的哥哥马特和马克组了个乐队He and Juli's brothers, Matt and Mark, had formeda band.丽奈特要看着他们排练And Lynetta would watch them practice.太赞了吧That is so neat.你觉得呢布莱斯?How about that, huh, Bryce?是啊够给力的Y eah.

Y ou haven't seen the best part.好恶啊Gross.我试着佯装淡定却毫不管用I tried to be casual about it, but it didn't take.我开始做噩梦I started having bad dreams.梦见自己被困在巨型鸡蛋里I'd be trapped inside a huge egg怪物张嘴将我吞入囊中and this monster would open his jaws and start todevour me.所幸每次都能及时醒来I'd wake up just in time.没想到噩梦成真了Then the real nightmare began.嗨布莱斯我给你们带了些鸡蛋Hi, Bryce. I brought these over for you and yourfamily.我家养的鸡开始下蛋了什么?My chickens are laying eggs. What?还记得艾比邦妮克莱德Y ou remember Abby and Bonnie and Clyde德克斯特尤妮丝和弗洛伦斯吗?and Dexter and Eunice and Florence?就是科学展览会上孵的小鸡当然记得啊The ones I hatched for the science fair.

I'm still having cereal tomorrow.我们怎么能确定这蛋不是孵了一半呢Y eah, how do we know there's no chicks in one of those eggs?我小时候常吃刚下的蛋很是可口I used to eat farm-fresh eggs when I was a kid. They were delicious.刚下的蛋当然美味了Y eah, well, that's all well and good可万一敲开鸡蛋掉出一具尸体咋整?but what if we crack one open and a dead chick falls out?他们家有养公鸡吗?Do they have a rooster?如果没有就不是受精蛋If they don't have a rooster the eggs can't be fertile. 如果养了公鸡我们也会知道And if they had a rooster, we'd know.街坊邻居都能听到The whole neighborhood would know.万一人家把公鸡变声了呢Maybe they got it de-yodeled. 变声?"De-yodeled"?就是把声带给割了Y ou know.
