Saturday
You remember how I said Mom and Dad were going to
eventually find out about Rodrick's party?Well,it finally happened today.
Mom nt Dad out to pick up the pictures from Thanksgiving, and when Dad got back,you could tell he wasn't happy about something.
The picture in Dad's hand was from Rodrick's party.
It looked like one of Rodrick's friends accidentally took a picture with Mom's camera,which she keeps on the shelf above the stereo.And when he took the picture,it captured the whole scene.
Rodrick tried to deny that he had a party.But everything was right there in the picture,so there really wasn't any point.
Mom and Dad took away Rodrick's car keys and told him his punishment is that he's not allowed to leave the hou for a whole month.
They were even mad at me, becau they said i was Rodrick's “accomplice”.So I got hit with a two-week video game ban.

你还记得我说过爸妈最终会知
道罗德里克的派对吗?
今天终于发生了。
妈妈让爸爸去拿感恩节的照
片,当爸爸回来的时候,你可以看
出他有些不高兴。
爸爸手里的照片是罗德里克的
派对上拍的。
看起来像是罗德里克的一个朋
友不小心用妈妈的相机拍了张照
片,妈妈把相机放在了音响上面的
架子上。
当他拍照时,它捕捉到了整个
(派对的)场景。

罗德里克试图否认他办过派
对。但是所有的东西都在图片里,
所以真的没有任何意义。
爸爸妈妈拿走了罗德里克的车
钥匙,并告诉他,对他的惩罚是整
整一个月不许他出门。
他们甚至生我的气,因为他们
说我是罗德里克的“帮凶”。所以
我被禁了两周的电子游戏。
Sunday
Mom and Dad have been all over Rodrick's ca ever since they found out about his party. Rodrick usually sleeps until2:00in the afternoon on weekends,but today Dad made Rodrick get out of bed by8:00A.M.
Making Rodrick get out of the bed early is a pretty big blow to him,becau Rodrick loves to sleep.One time last fall,Rodrick slept for36hours straight.
He slept all the way from Sunday night until Tuesday morning,and he didn't even realize he misd a whole day of his life until Tuesday night.
But it looks like Rodrick has found a way around the new8:00 rule.Now,when Dad tells Rodrick to get out of bed,Rodrick just
drags his stuff upstairs with him and he sleeps on the couch until it's time for dinner.So I guess you gonna give this round to Rodrick.

Mom and Dad are going away again this weekend,and they're dropping me and Rodrick off at Grandpa's.They said they were gonna let us stay home,but we proved we can't be trusted on our own.drag/dræɡ/拖拉,拖曳;
周日
自从妈妈和爸爸发现了罗德里
克的派对,他们就一直关注着他的
事件。
周末,罗德里克通常要睡到下
午2点,但是今天爸爸让他在早上
8点以前起床。
让罗德里克早点起床对他来说
是一个很大的打击,因为罗德里克
喜欢睡觉。
去年秋天的一次,罗德里克连
续睡了36个小时。
他从周日晚上一直睡到周二早
上,直到周二晚上他才意识到自己
错过了整整一天。
但看起来罗德里克已经找到了
一种方法来规避8点新规则。
现在,当爸爸叫罗德里克起床
的时候,罗德里克就拖着他的东西
上楼,睡在沙发上,直到晚餐时间。
所以我猜你要把这轮交给罗德
里克了。(暗示罗德里克赢了爸爸
的8点起床新规)dreamworld
周二
这个周末爸爸妈妈又要出去
了,他们要把我和罗德里克送到爷
爷家。
他们说他们本想让我们呆在家
里,但是我们证明了我们是不能被

Grandpa lives over in Leisure Towers,which is this old folks' home.I had to spend a week there with Rodrick a few months ago,and it was the low point of my whole summer.
Manny is staying with Grandma this weekend,and I'd give anything to trade places with him.Grandma always has her
fridge stocked with soda and cake and stuff like that,and she has cable TV with all the movie channels.
The reason Manny is going to Grandma's is becau Manny is Grandma's favorite.And all you need to do is take one look at her refrigerator for the proof.
But if anyone ever accu Grandma of showing favorites, she gets all defensive."I love all my grandchildren the same."
And it's not just the pictures on the fridge,either.Grandma has Manny's drawings and stuff hanging up all over the hou.
The only thing that Grandma has from me is this note I wrote her when I was six.I was mad at her becau she wouldn't give me any ice cream before dinner,so here's what I wrote:"I hate you, Grandma"

奶奶总是在冰箱里放满苏打水

曼尼去奶奶家的原因是奶奶最

但如果有人指责奶奶偏心,他

子孙女的爱是一样的。”
而且不仅仅是冰箱上的图片。
奶奶把曼尼的画和东西挂满了整个
屋子。
奶奶唯一保存的关于我的东西
就是这张我六岁时写给她的便条。
那时我很生她的气,因为她在
晚饭前不给我冰激凌,所以我就写
这样一句:“我恨你,奶奶。”
Grandma has kept that note all the years,and she's still holding it over my head."And this is what my wonderful grandson, Gregory made for me!"
I guess every Grandparent has their favorite,and I can understand that.But at least Grandpa is up front about it.
“Gregory is my favorite!”

Well,Mom and Dad dumped me and Rodrick off at Grandpa's today,just like they said they were gonna do.
I started looking for ways to

And after few hours of that, you start to go a little nuts.
"Oh,sure.Barry Grossman has time to go out for a3hour walk,but he doesn't have time to return my vacuum."
At about five5:00,Grandpa made us dinner.Grandpa makes this awful thing called “watercress salad,”and it's the worst thing you ain/ˌentəˈteɪn/娱乐;招待

周六
今天爸妈把我和罗德里克抛弃
在在爷爷家,就像他们说的那样。
我开始想办法自娱自乐,但
是爷爷的公寓里没有什么有趣的事
情可以做,所以我就坐下来和他看
电视。但爷爷连电视节目都不看。
他只是把电视接拔着他大楼前厅的
监控摄像头。
几个小时后,我开始有点疯
狂了。
“哦,当然。巴里·格罗斯曼有时间出
去散步3个小时,但他没有时间归
还我的吸尘器。”
大约五点的时候,爷爷给我们
做了晚饭。爷爷做了一种叫“豆瓣
菜沙拉”的难吃的东西,这是我吃
过的最难吃的东西。
It's basically a bunch of cold
green beans and cucumbers floating in a pool of vinegar.
Rodrick knows I hate watercress salad more than anything,so the last time we stayed at Grandpa's,Rodrick made sure to pile it on my plate.
"Greg loves watercress salad."
I had to sit there and choke down every bite so Grandpa's feelings wouldn't be hurt.
And guess what I got as a reward for cleaning my plate?
Tonight,Grandpa gave us our salad,and I acted like I was gonna eat it.But then I just stuffed it all in my pocket when no one was looking.
It felt pretty disgusting when the cold vinegar started running down my leg,but believe me,it was about a thousand times better than having to eat it.
After dinner,the three of us went into the living room. Grandpa has all the really old board games,and he always makes me and Rodrick play them with him.
He has this one game called “Gutbusters”,where one player reads a card,and the other player tries not to laugh.

罗德里克知道我最讨厌豆瓣菜
沙拉,所以上次我们住在爷爷家时,
他把它放在了我的盘子里。
“格雷格喜欢豆瓣菜沙拉。”
我不得不坐在那里,把每一口
都咽下去,这样爷爷才不会伤心。
猜猜我洗盘子得到了什么奖
励?
今晚,爷爷给了我们沙拉,我recovery是什么意思
装出要吃的样子。但我在没人注意
的时候把它全塞进了口袋。
当冰冷的醋顺着我的腿流下来
时,我感觉很恶心,但相信我,这
比不得不吃它要好一千倍。
晚饭后,我们三个走进客厅。
爷爷有很多老式的棋盘游戏,他总
是让我和罗德里克和他一起玩。
他有一个叫做“Gutbusters”
的游戏,其中一个玩家读一张牌,
元旦音乐
另一个玩家试着不笑。
