" We can't let Zork's team win," Ben told his teammates

“我们不能让佐克的队伍赢，”本对他的队友们说。

旁白 neutral

" We'll do better in the next two events — the slime ball toss

and the cross-country race," Deb said.

旁白 neutral

" I'm a good runner, even without kangaroo feet."

“我跑步很快，就算没有袋鼠脚。”

旁白 neutral

" Me too," Mog said." I think I can outrun Zork."

“我也是，”莫格说，“我觉得我能跑赢佐克。”

旁白 neutral

" You were beating him in the sack race," Ben said

“你麻袋赛跑时都要超过他了，”本说。

旁白 neutral

He suddenly remembered something

他突然想起了什么。

旁白 neutral

" What did you whisper to Zork just before the race started?

It seemed to spook him."

旁白 neutral

Mog laughed." I wanted to rattle him

莫格笑了。“我想让他紧张。

旁白 neutral

So I said,' Don't trip over your own tail.'"

所以我说，‘别被自己的尾巴绊倒。’”

旁白 neutral

" And he did trip over his tail!" Jen said

“结果他真的被尾巴绊倒了！”珍说。

旁白 neutral

" Too bad we didn't win though," Mog said ruefully

“不过可惜我们没赢，”莫格懊悔地说。

旁白 neutral

Soon everybody was back on the field

很快大家都回到了场上。

旁白 neutral

The two teams stood opposite each other a short distance apart

两队隔着一点距离面对面站着。

旁白 neutral

" The slime ball toss ends when all three players on one team

are out," Mr. Gwarg explained.

旁白 neutral

" Remember, you have to throw the slime balls to the opposing player

and not at the opposing player.

旁白 neutral

And you must throw underhand

而且必须下手投。

旁白 neutral

After two tosses, you will step back and start tossing again. Good luck!"

投两次之后，后退一步再接着投。祝好运！”

旁白 neutral

The first few tosses went smoothly

前几次投掷都很顺利。

旁白 neutral

Then Pixel missed a toss from Cleo

接着像素没接住克里奥投过来的球。

旁白 neutral

The slime ball fell between his hands and crashed onto the ground. Splat!

史莱姆球从他两手间掉下去，砸在地上。啪！

旁白 neutral

" You're out, Pixel," Cleo said

“你出局了，像素，”克里奥说。

旁白 neutral

Lon went out next, after a toss from Ben

下一个出局的是朗，本一投之后。

旁白 neutral

" Ick!" the werewolf said as the slime ball exploded on his snout

“噁！”那个狼人说，史莱姆球在他的鼻吻上炸开。

旁白 neutral

Jen took out Gaby as Ben got a new slime ball and faced Cleo

珍淘汰了加比，这时本拿到新的史莱姆球，面向克里奥。

旁白 neutral

Meanwhile Mog and Zork were trying hard to knock each other out

与此同时，莫格和佐克正拼命想把对方淘汰出局。

旁白 neutral

They threw their ball underhand, but their tosses were very high

他们下手投球，但投出的球非常高。

旁白 neutral

And as they played, they argued back and forth

比赛时，他们你来我往地争吵着。

旁白 neutral

" I'll get you back for that crack about my tail!" Zork said

“你拿我尾巴开玩笑，我会找你算账的！”佐克说。

旁白 neutral

" Only if you don't trip over it!" Mog shot back

“除非你自己别先被它绊倒！”莫格回击道。

旁白 neutral

Deb and Carly were tossing to each other

黛布和卡莉在互相投球。

旁白 neutral

Both doppelgangers had grown giant-size hands that looked

like baseball gloves.

旁白 neutral

Ben tossed the slime ball to Cleo, and then they each took

several steps backward again.

旁白 neutral

" Argh! I'm out!" Mog cried

“啊！我出局了！”莫格喊道。

旁白 neutral

The slime ball was caught on one of his horns, and the slime

was dripping into his eyes.

旁白 neutral

" Yes!" Zork dropped to his knees and threw his arms in the air

“太好了！”佐克跪倒在地，高举双臂。

旁白 neutral

Brunhilda had been catching Waldo's tosses

布伦希尔达一直在接沃尔多的投球。

旁白 neutral

" Ahh!" She suddenly missed a slime ball, and now her whole face

was covered in the gooey stuff.

旁白 neutral

" I guess Waldo is good at this," Ben thought, watching

“我猜沃尔多很擅长这个。”本一边看一边想。

旁白 neutral

" He has — " Splat! A slime ball slammed Ben in the forehead

“他打到了——”啪！一颗史莱姆球打中了本的额头。

旁白 neutral

With Ben out, Cleo went to face Waldo, just as Deb missed a low throw

and got her legs splattered.

旁白 neutral

That left Carly waiting for an opponent, but only for a moment

这下轮到卡莉在等对手了，不过也就等了一会儿。

旁白 neutral

Splat! Zork stared down at a big slime stain on his belly

啪！佐克低头瞪着自己肚子上那一大块史莱姆污渍。

旁白 neutral

" It's all in the wrist action," Jen boasted

“全靠手腕发力。”詹吹嘘道。

旁白 neutral

She picked up a new slime ball and began tossing with Carly

她拿起一颗新的史莱姆球，开始和卡莉互相投掷。

旁白 neutral

" Only Waldo and Jen are left from Team Black," Ben thought

“现在黑队只剩下沃尔多和詹了。”本想。

旁白 neutral

" Can they beat Cleo and Carly?"

“他们能打败克里奥和卡莉吗？”

旁白 neutral

For several tosses, no one missed, so no one got slimed

连续投了好几轮，没人失手，所以也没人再被黏液砸中。

旁白 neutral

" C'mon, Team Black! You can do it!" Mog yelled

"加油，黑队！你们行的！"莫格喊道。

旁白 neutral

" Beat ' em, Team Orange!" Zork shouted back

"打败他们，橙队！"佐克回喊道。

旁白 neutral

" Ahh!" Waldo suddenly scratched his arms and his belly

"啊！"沃尔多突然抓挠起自己的胳膊和肚子。

旁白 neutral

" I'm so itchy! It must be the grass from the field."

"我好痒！肯定是场上的草惹的祸。"

旁白 neutral

Cleo tossed the slime ball, which bounced off Waldo's arm and into the grass

克里奥扔出史莱姆球，球从沃尔多的胳膊弹开，掉进了草丛里。

旁白 neutral

" Yes!" Cleo cheered

"太好了！"克里奥欢呼起来。

旁白 neutral

Then Carly let out a startled cry

接着，卡莉发出一声惊叫。

旁白 neutral

" Oh no!" Her slime ball slid from her hand and smashed

her right in the mouth.

旁白 neutral

She licked her lips." It tastes good though!"

她舔了舔嘴唇。"不过味道还不错！"

旁白 neutral

" We've got our finalists — Cleo and Jen!" Mr. Gwarg announced

"我们的决赛选手产生了——克里奥和詹！"格瓦格老师宣布道。

旁白 neutral

He handed a new ball to Cleo, and a hush fell over the crowd as the two

monsters began tossing the ball back and forth.

旁白 neutral

Ben bit a fingernail. Next to him, Deb looked just as nervous

本咬起了指甲。在他旁边，黛布看起来同样紧张。

旁白 neutral

" If Jen loses," Deb whispered," Team Orange will win Field Day."

"要是詹输了，"黛布小声说，"橙队就会赢得运动会。"

旁白 neutral

" I know," Ben said grimly

"我知道，"本沉着脸说。

旁白 neutral

Cleo tossed the ball again

克里奥再次投出球。

旁白 neutral

This time it soared high into the air

这次，球高高地飞向了空中。

旁白 neutral

Jen reached for it, but her arms were short, and..

詹伸手去够，但她的胳膊太短，于是……

旁白 neutral

Boink! As the ball hit her head, the crowd gasped

砰！当球砸到她的头上时，人群倒吸了一口凉气。

旁白 neutral

But the slime ball didn't break

但史莱姆球没有破。

旁白 neutral

Instead it sank back down and right into her waiting hands

它反而陷了下去，正好落回她准备好的手中。

旁白 neutral

Ben laughed." No wonder she's doing so well

in this event. Blobs are soft!"

旁白 neutral

Jen threw the ball back

詹把球丢了回去。

旁白 neutral

Cleo caught it, but then it slipped from her fingers

克里奥接住了球，但随后它就从她指尖滑落了。

旁白 neutral

Splat! Slime splashed everywhere

啪嗒！史莱姆溅得到处都是。

旁白 neutral

Mog and Ben bumped chests

莫格和本撞胸庆祝。

旁白 neutral

Team Black's fans were going wild

黑队的支持者们一片欢腾。

旁白 neutral

" Team Black has won the slime ball toss!" Mr. Gwarg called out

"黑队赢得了史莱姆球投掷比赛！"格瓦格老师大声宣布。

旁白 neutral

Jen grinned proudly." It's great to be a blob!"

詹骄傲地咧嘴笑了。"当个软泥怪真好！"
