雙語(yǔ)漫威故事《蜘蛛俠》 第六章

Chapter　6

第六章

 

Peter spent the next morning listening to Aunt May worry about Super Heroes in general and Spider-Man in particular.

第二天一整個(gè)早上，彼得都在聽(tīng)梅姑媽嘮叨超級(jí)英雄，對(duì)蜘蛛俠的意見(jiàn)尤其大。

 

“That Spider-Man really gets to me. I mean, why wear a mask if you don't have something to hide?” she asked.

“那個(gè)蜘蛛俠真讓我生氣。我的意思是，如果你沒(méi)有什么要遮掩的，為什么要戴個(gè)面具呢？”她問(wèn)道。

 

Peter nearly smiled. Of course he wore his mask as Spider-Man in part so his enemies wouldn't harm the people he loved—to protect Aunt May—and here she was thinking he wore it to hide deep dark secrets about his intentions.

彼得差點(diǎn)笑出來(lái)。他戴著蜘蛛俠面具部分原因是為了不讓敵人傷害他所愛(ài)的人——這樣可以保護(hù)梅姑媽——而現(xiàn)在，她卻認(rèn)為他戴面具是為了遮掩什么見(jiàn)不得人的鬼秘密。

 

If she only knew...

要是她知道就好了……

 

When he got to school about an hour later, he found the usual mixed bag of talk: sports, music, celebrities, fellow students, and, of course, Spider-Man.

大約一個(gè)小時(shí)后，他到達(dá)學(xué)校時(shí)，發(fā)現(xiàn)人們?cè)谡務(wù)摳鞣N各樣的話題：體育、音樂(lè)、名人、同學(xué)，當(dāng)然還有蜘蛛俠。

 

“Did you see those clips of the stock exchange?” Flash was asking one of his pals.

“你看到證券交易所的那些錄像了嗎？”閃電問(wèn)他的同伴。

 

Peter rolled his eyes. Why did his locker have to be right next to Flash's?

彼得翻了個(gè)白眼。為什么自己的儲(chǔ)物柜偏偏緊挨著閃電的呢？

 

“Man, not sure how Spider-Man does it, but he nails every crook in town.”

“伙計(jì)，我不知道蜘蛛俠是怎么做到的，但他盯牢了城里的每個(gè)壞蛋。”

 

Without thinking Peter jumped to his friend Nova's defense.

彼得毫不猶豫地跳出來(lái)維護(hù)他的朋友新星。

 

“Nova's not a crook,” Peter fired back.

“新星不是壞蛋。”彼得反駁道。

 

Flash turned around slowly.

閃電慢慢轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身來(lái)。

 

“Figures he'd root for the villain,” Flash said, right in Peter's face.

“我就知道他會(huì)支持那個(gè)惡棍。”閃電當(dāng)著彼得的面說(shuō)。

 

“What are you reading? The Daily Bugle Website? Every other paper thinks Spider-Man saved the day,” Flash stated. “Petey here doesn't like Spider-Man so much.”

閃電接著說(shuō)：“你都讀什么？《號(hào)角日?qǐng)?bào)》網(wǎng)站嗎？其他所有的報(bào)紙都認(rèn)為蜘蛛俠拯救了世界，而我們的彼得卻不太喜歡蜘蛛俠。”

 

“And I hate to do this, but I have to side with Flash here, Pete.”

“雖然我不想這么做，但我不得不站在閃電這邊，彼得。”

 

Peter turned around to see Gwen.

彼得轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身看到了格溫。

 

“My dad said himself that Spider-Man was a big help, even though he didn't give me details when I asked,” she added.

她補(bǔ)充說(shuō)：“我爸爸親口說(shuō)蜘蛛俠幫了大忙，盡管我要他告訴我詳情，他沒(méi)有答應(yīng)。”

 

“All I'm saying is I don't trust him, that's all,” Peter said.

“我只是說(shuō)我不信任他，僅此而已。”彼得說(shuō)。

 

“And all I'm saying is you're just scared of a real man like Spider-Man,” Flash teased. “Afraid of what he'd do to a wimp like you? Huh?”

“我想說(shuō)的是，你就是害怕蜘蛛俠那樣的真男人，”閃電揶揄道，“怕他會(huì)對(duì)你這樣一個(gè)膽小鬼做點(diǎn)什么？嗯？”

 

“Flash, cut it out,” Gwen said.

“閃電，閉嘴。”格溫說(shuō)。

 

“Oh, sorry,” Flash said as he threw his hands up. “Forgot you two geeks are in love.”

“哦，對(duì)不起。”閃電邊說(shuō)邊舉起雙手，“忘了你們兩個(gè)奇葩在戀愛(ài)。”

 

“We're not ...” Peter and Gwen said at the same time.

“我們沒(méi)有……”彼得和格溫異口同聲道。

 

Flash biffed Peter on the head.

閃電敲了一下彼得的頭。

 

“Good choice, Parker. Her dad's a police officer. Maybe he can protect you from big, bad Spider-Man!” Flash said. “I'd watch my back when I'm walking to the subway if I were you. Look behind the shower curtain when you walk into the bathroom. Check under your bed before you go to sleep. Spider-Man's coming for you...” Flash said in a singsong voice.

“不錯(cuò)的選擇呀,帕克。她爸爸是警察。也許她爸爸能保護(hù)你免受蜘蛛俠大壞蛋的傷害！”閃電說(shuō)，“如果我是你，在去地鐵的路上我會(huì)多加小心；進(jìn)了浴室會(huì)看看浴簾后面；睡覺(jué)前，還得檢查一下床底。蜘蛛俠要來(lái)找你了……”閃電用一種單調(diào)扭捏的聲音說(shuō)道。

 

“Ignore it, ignore it,” Peter whispered.

“別理它，別理它。”彼得低聲說(shuō)道。

 

He opened his locker and jumped back as hundreds of little plastic spiders fell out of it and onto him. It had been rigged!

他打開(kāi)儲(chǔ)物柜，往后跳了一下，只見(jiàn)幾百只小塑料蜘蛛從里面掉了出來(lái)，落在他身上。有人對(duì)儲(chǔ)物柜動(dòng)了手腳！

 

“Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!”

“哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！”

 

Flash and his friends laughed, jeering at Peter.

閃電和他的朋友們哈哈大笑，都在嘲笑彼得。

 

“If you think those spiders are scary, just think about one the size of a guy! Better watch out, Peter Parker—the Spider-Man's coming to get you!”

“如果你認(rèn)為那些蜘蛛很可怕，那就想想和一個(gè)人體型一樣大的蜘蛛有多可怕吧！你最好小心點(diǎn)，彼得·帕克——蜘蛛俠就要來(lái)抓你啰！”

 

“Jerks!” Gwen said. But Flash just smirked and walked away.

“混蛋！”溫格罵道。但閃電只是傻笑著走開(kāi)了。

 

Gwen grabbed a few toy spiders. “Here, I'll help you clean these up,” she said to Peter.

格溫抓起幾只玩具蜘蛛對(duì)彼得說(shuō)：“來(lái)，我?guī)湍惆堰@些清理干凈。”

 

“Thanks,” he said. “You know, I didn't really mean you weren't... that I wasn't... I mean, when Flash said that thing about me and you, I didn't want you to think...” Peter stuttered, scrambling for the right words.

“謝謝。”他說(shuō)，“你知道，我并不是說(shuō)你不是……我不是……我是說(shuō)，當(dāng)閃電說(shuō)到我和你的事的時(shí)候，我不想讓你認(rèn)為……”彼得結(jié)結(jié)巴巴地說(shuō)道，他絞盡腦汁想用合適的話來(lái)說(shuō)。

 

“Oh, I know, don't worry about it. Neither did I. I mean, neither do I. Oh, never mind,” Gwen said, brushing her hair behind an ear nervously. “Um, I'll see you in chemistry, yeah?”

“哦，我知道，別擔(dān)心。我也不是那個(gè)意思，我是說(shuō)，我也不是這么想。哦，不用擔(dān)心。”格溫一邊說(shuō)，一邊緊張地把頭發(fā)梳到耳朵后面，“嗯，我們化學(xué)課見(jiàn)，好嗎？”

 

“Er, yeah. See you in a bit,” Peter said. He could feel his face getting all warm. It was a stranger feeling than anything else he'd ever felt.

“呃,好的。待會(huì)兒見(jiàn)。”彼得說(shuō)。他能感覺(jué)到自己的臉燒得火辣辣的。這是一種前所未有的奇怪感覺(jué)。

 

It was even odder than his spider-sense.

這比他的蜘蛛感應(yīng)還要奇怪。
