B4_Franklin and the Computer 小乌龟学美语文本

Franklin SnoopsFranklin could count by twos and ties his shoes. He knew why the leaves fell in autumn and why his kite needed a tail. But one day, Franklin wanted to know too much about a surprise.Why are you cutting all those branches off rosebush?It's called "pruning" and it makes the plant grow better.Oh. So, why do they call a dried plum a prune?Hmmm... That's a good question. But from now on you should always ask for a dried plum.Why? Dad.Because if you ask for a prune, someone may think you want a good clipping.Dad.Thanks for hiding that for me.Not at all, I know how these things can be discovered by accident. And sometimes no by accident!Yes, I know what you mean. No one will find it here. And I won't say anything to Franklin about it.I just want to know, that's all. If it's not something you're hiding from me. Why can't you tell me what it is?Because I told Mrs. Bear that I wouldn't.Well, can you tell why you can't tell me?I don't think you're going to give up, are you?That was just Mrs. Bear on the phone, she wanted me to remind you to take the price tag off Bear's gift before you wrap it.What?Thanks, Dad.I just want to know, that's all. And he is my best friend. So it's okay if you tell me what he's getting for his birthday.It's hard for best friends to keep secrets from one another. so if you don't know what it is, you don't have to worry about spoiling his surprise. Aww, Mom, I won't tell Bear. I promise.Sorry, Franklin, but you'll just have to wait until his birthday party. Hmph!Mom! Have you seen my baseball glove?!Try looking in the closet!Oh yeah!There it is.Ahhh...Ohhh...Wow! A Power Pal! Boy, is Bear ever lucky!Okay, Everyone knows you've been practicing, so show me what you've got. I'm ready!You'd better be. Because here comes my slider!Aww...Sorry Bear. I'll try to slow it down next time.It's my glove's fault! See, it's too small for me and I can't grab it the right way.Sure, Bear. It's just your glove.It is! Honest!I just find out something really net.What?What? Tell us.You mom hid your birthday present at my house, and I saw what it was. Really?!That's right! And you'll never guess what it is in a million years! Okay, let me see. Is it a...power Pal?It is?! It is. I guess right, didn't I?Wow, That wasn't even one of things I asked for.Awww, Bear, Now I've wrecked your surprise.It's okay Franklin. My surprise just happened a little bit sooner than it was supposed to, that's all.But won't your mom be able to tell that you've not surprised when you open your present?Hmmmm....She might. Mom's pretty smart. No matter how quiet I am, she can always tell when I've had a cookie during the night.Do you leave crumbs in your bed?Oh, yeah. That's how she know.Do you think you could act surprised on your birthday.Oh, sure. That's easy. Ohhhh Geeee! A Power Pal!How was that?Why don't we practice ball later? Let's practice being surprised for a little while.I feel bad that I've wrecked Bear's surprise. And his Mom went to all that trouble hiding it from him.it wasn't your fault Franklin. He made a lucky guess. That's all.But if I hadn't been so curious in the first place, this never would have happened.Hey! Check out my new laser shield. Dun da da!!What is it for?To defend Power Pal against the evil army. I want to get the mountain hide-way with the launch pad too. See?Wow! Look at all the Power Pal stuff.Hmmm... Maybe knowing what Bear's getting for his birthday isn't such a bad thing after all.What do you mean?We can all buy Bear something to go with his Power Pal.That's a great idea Franklin. What should I get for him?How about the Power Pal Speed Boat?Okay! He'll like that!If Bear's getting a Power Pal then he's got to have the MountainHide-away.Yeah. You can get him that. That's perfect.Maybe Fox can give him the Camouflage Hang- Glider and Badger could buy the Lava Crawler, and you could get Bear the Power Pal Mini Sub. What about Secret Signal Light?Uh, Raccoon is getting him that.The Power Pal Amphibian Car looks neat.I just bought him that this morning.Well, since it's a gift from me, I want to be one who picks it out. Show me what's left to choose from.Uh...The Mini Sub.That's all?Sorry, Beaver. Everyone thought it was a good idea to get him things for his new Power Pal.Will he think it's really neat?Oh yeah, he'll love it.Okay. Then I pick the Mini Sub.Hi, guys.Hi!/Hi, Bear.Nothing.It looked like you were reading something.Uh...Yes, it was a map. I was showing Franklin how to get somewhere. Uh that-that's right, with the map.So remember, go as far as you can and when you come to that "T" in the road, go left."T" in the road, then left. Got it. Thanks Beaver.I can't wait until Bear sees this Power Pal Car. It's so neat. He's going to love it.I'm sure he will. I know how excited I'd be if someone gave me a car on my birthday.Mom.There, perfect. Now we better get a move on, we don't want to miss out on anything, do we?What about the present from Bear's mom?Oops, thank you Franklin. I almost forgot. Now I'll be able to have tea and cake instead of running back for this.What's that, Mom?You've waited over a week now to find out. I think you can wait an hour or two. Then both you and Bear can be surprised.But...it doesn't look like Bear's gift.I mean...it doesn't looked the gift in the closet.Awww no, you saw your birthday present, didn't you?My birthday present?! That Power Pal is for me?!Yes, I bought it a few weeks ago when there were lots to choose from. They seem to be quite popular, and I wanted to make sure that I had one for you birthday.Do you see what happens when you snoop? Now you've spoiled your surprise.It's not my surprise I'm worried about. Mom, I'm never going to snoop again. And...Yes?We may have to give Bear something else for his birthday.Look at all the neat stuff.What did you get Bear?You'll never guess what that is!Just tear off the wrapping Bear!A Power Pal Mini Sub. This is great! Thanks Beaver.I'm glad you like it. I picked it out myself!This one is from your farther and me.Gee, I wonder what it could be.Ohhh, Gee...Wow!Huh?!Are you surprised?!Yeah!Me too.Is this ever nice! I was just told Snail the other day that my old glove was getting too small. How did you know?Mom knows these things.And I'm glad they do!Thanks Mom.Happy Birthday, Bear.Huh?Oh yeah...uh, there's still another present. This one's from me, Bear. Gee, can my birthday get any better?I hope so.A Power Pal! Wow!Great present! / That's neat!Wow look at that!That's perfect!Gee, Franklin, this birthday has been full of surprises!And that's how it should be.Happy Birthday Bear.。

Franklin's BargainFranklin could count by twos and tie his shoes. He liked helping his parent and being given extra responsibilities. But one day, Franklin learned that the important responsibility is keeping his end of a bargain.Bear?... What are you doing?Hi, Franklin. I'm using my new Detective Kit.Detective Kit?I'm examining this footprint.Thank you.What for?I think whoever left it might have also thrown this pop can on the ground.Now what are you doing?Dusting for fingerprints. That'll tell me who dropped it here. Here. hold this open.Gee, Bear, where'd you get all this neat stuff?At Mr. Mole's store.Does he have any more?Sorry, Franklin. This was the last one.Oh.But he did have a Super Snooper Spy Kit. It has a real periscope and a Sound Magnifier so you can listen through doors.Listen through doors?! Wow! How much is it?Ten dollars, the same as the Detective Kit.Hmmmmm...If you want it, you'd better hurry up and buy it before someone else get it first.They only had one left.Only one?Six dollars and twenty-one cents... Six dollars and twenty-two cents... By the time I can afford to buy the Super Snooper Spy Kit, it'll be gone for sure, Sam.You're looking rather glum, Franklin.There's really neat Super Snooper Spy Kit at Mr. Mole's store.A Super Snooper Spy Kit? That does sound pretty neat.But I don't have enough money to buy it, I need almost four more dollars.Well that doesn't sound so bad. If you save your allowance for the next few weeks, you should have enough to buy it.A few weeks is too long...It might seem like that now, but the time will be gone before you know it.So will the Super Snooper Spy Kit...there's one left in the store. Hmmm... why don't we make a bargain, Dad? If I do some extra chores, you could give me my allowance for the next few weeks now.Your mother and I never make advances on your allowance Franklin, you know that.I know, but...just this once?Well, with your Mom busy taking care of taking care of Harriet's cold, I HAVE been a little swamped with extra work...I could help you get unswamped.It would be nice to get that pile of dish out of the way. Dishes? Gee... I don't like doing dishes. There are something else I could do?I need to get those dishes done so I can get started on the garden this weekend. I've been so busy with everything else I haven't had a chance to even dig it up yet, let alone get it planted.I love digging! I'll dig up the garden!Okay, Franklin.You've got a bargain.Here's your advance.Thanks Dad!If you get started on the garden now, you should be finished by dinner time.Um... Is it okay if I do that later? First I have to get ot the store before it closes.Wow! Is this ever neat! This must be the Sound Magnifier.Ah-choo! I want drink, mama.I'll get you apple juice in a minute, Harriet, after you take your medicine.It works!Franklin? How's it going in the garden?I haven't started yet, Dad. But I'll get right to it just as soon as I make sure my Super Snooper Spy Kit works okay... Okay? I see a dragon, Sam. a fire- breathing dragon! And there's a shark up ahead! It look like a Great Orange, the most dangerous shark in all the ocean. Gee, ah... It's late. I guess I'll have to dig the garden tomorrow.Don't forget, Franklin. I wanna plant the garden tomorrow. It's already late in the season, and I can't put it off any longer.I know, Dad. I'll dig it up right after breakfast.I'll get it.Hi! Franklin. Are you ready?Ready?We're going to play with your Super Snooper Spy Kit. Remember?Wooops...I guess I forgot. Bear hasn't had a chance to play with the Spy Kit yet, so I'll dig the garden up this afternoon...okay, Dad?You know, Franklin. The longer I wait to get started on these dishes, the taller the pile grows. A garden's a lot like a pile of dishes, don't you think? Franklin? Franklin?I see it!Are there any eggs?Yes...four of them!What color?White...with little brown speckles.What are they saying?I can't hear them.Here, let me try.Well?I can't hear anything either. Are you sure it works?AAAH!I told you it worked, Bear!See you later, Franklin.Whew! Whew! This is going to be harder than I thought. Maybedoing the dishes wouldn't be so bad after all.Dad, I was thinking... if you want, I can do the...dishes instead. Oh, dear. These library books were due to yesterday.I'll take them back, Mom!Bye, Mom.Goodbye, Franklin.Franklin?And the fearless knight rode his horse across the river and... My goodness, Franklin! Are you still here? The library's closing in five minutes.Closing?Gee, Dad. Why did you do that? It was my job.I know, Franklin. But did you think you'd have enough time to do it before supper?Uh...well...Supper's ready!No.I didn't think so.The garden has to be planted tomorrow, Franklin. If I keep putting it off, we won't have any vegetables this year. After all, there's no bargaining with the weatherman.I guess I've been doing too much bargaining lately, haven't I?It's easy to make a bargain, Franklin. The tough part is holding up your end of it.I sure didn't hold up my end. And now you've done the garden work and the dishes.Well, one thing about dirty dishes is that you never seem to run out of them.I know... I'll do the dishes for a whole week! No wait...How about for two weeks?I think one is plenty.Thanks Day.Are you finished, Son, or are you going to eat the plate, too? Dad...Uh...Down...uh...get down...want down... uh.Franklin, could you play with Harriet for a while?I have to get this load of laundry done.Can we make a bargain, Dad?Hmmm...How about you play Super Spy with Harriet, while I do the dishes?!Now that IS a bargain!Hey!。

H4: Franklin has the hiccups.Franklin could count by twos and tie his shoes. He liked playing soccer and he had fun playing chess too. But one day, Franklin was too worried to enjoy playing games.Mr. Owl.Yes, rabbit?How many squares can the horse move again?The ‘horse’is called a ‘knight’, and it can move three squares in a ‘L-shape’.There sure are a lot of different moves to remember.That’s for sure. And a lot of different name to remember too.I get my brooks mixed up with my ponds.I believe you mean Rooks and Pawns, Goose.Oh yeah, that’s what I mean.I think this game is kinda hard too.I think chess is really fun. I like pretending I’m the coach and this is my team. Come on pawns, work together, work together. Bishop, get there and block the Queen, let’s hustle. Excuse me, I’m trying to concentrate.Oops. Sorry Beaver.Hmmm---no.Mr. Owl, I can’t move anywhere. Franklin can capture myking no matter what I do!You know what that means! Checkmate!Good game, Franklin. Yes, well done!You’re defeated everyone in the class, Franklin.Yeah, who are you going to play against now?I know who.Who?The chess champion from Cedar Brook school, that’s who! Really?Yes. Right here, tomorrow.Way to go!/ hurray for Franklin!/ How exciting!/ Alright Franklin.I can’t wait’ll the tomorrow’s chess match. You’d better practice, Franklin.That’s right. The Cedar Brook champion is probably really good! /Huh?Franklin doesn’t have to worry because he’s really, really good!And tomorrow he’s going to beat the socks off the champion from Cedar Brook and show everyone that ore school is the best!And our village is the best .That’s right./ Franklin’ll show’em!Hic…Hic…Excuse hic me, hic!I know what cures hiccups….I’ll give you a big scare! Hic…Hic…Try holding your breath!Hey! It worked! Thanks snail!You’re welcome Franklin! Bye!Goodbye! / See you tomorrow. / see ya!Do you want to come to my house and help me practice, Bear? /Kay! / Hic…Hic…Up…oh. The hiccups are back?Yeah, I thought I got hic rid of them.I know, lets run to your house and make a peanut butter sandwich.Hic! Does that cure the hiccups?I dunno. I’m just hungry. Come on!Wait up Bear! Hic…Hic…Hic…Hic…Why don’t you have a drink of water or something?I did… twice. Hic! Gee, Bear, is that the best move you can make?…Hic…Well, it’s the hard to concentrate when you’re hiccupping allthe time.There goes another of your pawns. Hic…you’re going to have to try harder than that, Bear.What do you mean? I am trying hard!I just mean you have to play …hic…like you’re the best from another school …hic…so I can practice!Well I’m not the best from another school. Gee, Franklin, we used to have fun playing chess. I’m going home.Wait Bear! Uh… what if I give you my knights and bishops! No thanks.What if… what if we arm wrestle! That’s fun!…Bear?!Well at least those hiccups are gone.Hic! Awwww… no. Hic.Awwww, I can’t believe I didn’t see that! Hic! What was I thinking about?Don’t be so hard on yourself, Franklin. You’re playing well. Hic! If I were playing well, Granny. I would have noticed my rook being cornered. Hic! The match is tomorrow, hic! There’s not enough time to practice, there just isn’t. hic! Now, now, you’ll do just fine, I know you will….. would you like to take a break, have a little snack?Uh…hic!A big glass of milk might even cure those hiccups.Do you think so?Hey! My hiccups are gone again, Granny.Hmm. That’s odd, how they start and stop that way.Yes, it is.Hic…hic! Uh…oh.Hmmm….That’s interesting.Hic! What is?Are your hiccups gone again?Gee … I think they are, Granny.Hic…hic. That’s weird. Hic!It seems that whenever you see checks, you start hiccupping! Really? Why?Because they remind you of chess! You’re so anxious about this chess match, that it’s giving you the hiccups!Well I know on thing for sure I don’t have fun playing chess the way I used to.You’ve got to remember that chess is a game, Franklin. Games are meant to be fun.But this game is important! If I don’t win, I’ll let the whole class down!Oh, you won’t let anyone down! They’re your friends,Franklin. They’ll like you whether you win or lose! Franklin! What square should I move to next?I don’t know!If I move over there, will a knight get me?I’m not sure.Tell us where to move, Franklin.We’re all counting on you!/ yeah! The whole village is counting on you!Hic!Sorry I got mad yesterday, Franklin.That’s okay Bear. I’m sorry about the way I was acting too. Are you nervous about the match?Yeah, a little.Don’t worry. You’ll be great.Thanks Bear.Hi Franklin!Hi Franklin! Your opponent’s not here yet.I wonder what he’ll be like!Or she! It could be a she!Well whoever it is, Franklin’ll show them who’s boss. Yeah, Franklin win for sure.Are you ready, Franklin?Yean, I guess so.Look, Franklin!Tah daah! That’s wonderful!Good work, boys!Gee, thanks a lot, guys. Hic!Here we go again!Why don’t you go out and get a drink of water, Franklin? Our visitors will be here any minute.Hic!Welcome! Welcome! Come right in!Ohhh. They’re here.Ohhhh.Are you all right?I’ve got a stomachache.Is it because of something you ate?No. I’ve had it ever since my teacher told me I was playing chess against the champion of this school.Really?Yeah, and all my friends are expecting me to win. What if I don’t? I just found out my opponent is the best in the world! The best in the world? Who told you that?!Some students that go to this school.Those guys….I’m not the best in the world.You’re Franklin?Yeah, and I’m not what you think, I just like playing chess—or I used to anyway before I started worrying about today’s game.I used to like playing chess too. Now it just makes my stomach hurt.I keep getting the hiccups.The hiccups?Yep. Every time I see something checkered I start hiccupping. It drove my best friend crazy!That’s funny. I guess this big game has made us both nervous.Let’s try to forget about everyone else and just play for fun. Yeah, I like that idea. Let’s do that.How’s your stomach feeling?Fine now.Marmot! We can start whenever you’re ready.Thanks Mr. Wolverine. I’m ready to play, how about you, Franklin?Huh…. I don’t have the hiccups anymore, so I guess I’m ready too.Then let’s go have fun.。
