It is a normal Saturday for Noah. He wakes up and makes his bed. He walks downstairs for breakfast.
对诺亚来说,这是平常的一个星期六。他起了床,整理好床铺,走下楼去吃早饭。
The kitchen is quiet, and nobody is there. His mom left a short note on the table. "Please buy milk from the store," it says.
厨房里很安静,一个人也没有。妈妈在桌上留了一张简短的字条。上面写着:“请去商店买牛奶。”
Noah puts on his shoes and walks to the store. He picks a carton of milk and pays for it. Then he walks back home.
诺亚穿上鞋,走到商店。他挑了一盒牛奶,付了钱,然后走回家。
At home, the front door is unlocked, but the lights are off. Noah opens the door slowly and steps inside.
到家后,前门没有锁,可是灯都关着。诺亚慢慢推开门,走了进去。
"Surprise!" everyone shouts at once.
“惊喜!”大家一起喊了起来。
His family and friends stand in the living room. There are balloons, a big cake, and a banner on the wall. His best friend Caleb holds a small gift box.
他的家人和朋友们站在客厅里。有气球,有一个大蛋糕,墙上还挂着一条横幅。他最好的朋友凯莱布拿着一个小礼盒。
"Happy birthday, Noah!" Caleb says, and he laughs. "We planned this for two weeks!"
“生日快乐,诺亚!”凯莱布笑着说,“我们为这个准备了两个星期!”
Noah looks around the room. He sees his cousins, his neighbors, and his teacher from school. Everyone is smiling and clapping.
诺亚环顾房间。他看到了表兄弟姐妹、邻居们,还有学校里的老师。每个人都笑着拍手。
"I didn't know about any of this," Noah says. He puts down the milk and walks toward the cake.
“这些事我一点都不知道,”诺亚说。他放下牛奶,朝蛋糕走去。
"Make a wish," his mom says, "and blow out the candles."
“许个愿,”他妈妈说,“然后吹蜡烛。”
Noah leans over the cake and blows out all the candles. Everyone claps and cheers loudly.
诺亚俯身对着蛋糕,把所有的蜡烛都吹灭了。大家鼓掌欢呼,声音很大。
"Now let's cut the cake," Noah says, picking up the knife.
“现在我们来切蛋糕吧,”诺亚说着,拿起了刀。
