双语读电影《疯狂动物城》第5章 停车场值班

Chapter 5

Beep. Beep. Beep. At the sound of her morning alarm, Judy sprang out of bed. She washed, brushed, and rinsed. Then she put on her vest, pinned on her badge, and strapped on her belt. She was ready to protect the city! She glanced at the pink can of fox repellent sitting on the bedside table and walked out, leaving it behind. But after a moment, she reached back in the room and grabbed it—just in case.

She left her apartment and headed toward the Zootopia Police Department for her first day on the job!

Judy’s eyes widened as she entered the chaotic and loud ZPD. Big burly cops pushed criminals through the lobby as people rushed around in every direction. She dodged a few husky animals before finally finding her way to the front desk. There, a pudgy, friendly-looking cheetah sat chatting with some other cops.

Judy smiled at him as she approached, but he couldn’t see her because she was shorter than the desk.

“Excuse me!” Judy called up to the desk. “Down here. Down. Here. Hi.”

The cheetah leaned over the desk and saw Judy standing there in her uniform.

“O-M goodness!” he said. “They really did hire a bunny. What! I gotta tell you; you are even cuter than I thought you’d be.”

Judy winced. “Oh, uh, I’m sure you didn’t know, but for us rabbits...the word ‘cute’ is a—it’s a little—”

“Oh! I am so sorry. Me, Benjamin Clawhauser, the guy everyone thinks is just a flabby, donut-loving cop, stereotyping you...,” he said apologetically.

“It’s okay. Oh, um, actually you’ve—actually—” Judy stammered as she tried to figure out how to say it. “There’s a—in your neck—the fold...there’s—”

Clawhauser removed a small donut from under a roll of neck fat. “There you went, you little dickens!” said Clawhauser to the donut. Then he joyfully crammed it into his mouth.

“I should get to roll call, so...which way do I...?” Judy asked. “Oh!” Clawhauser said with his mouth full of donut. “Bullpen’s over there to the left.”

“Great, thank you!” Judy said, and hurried off.

“Aw...that poor little bunny’s gonna get eaten alive,” he said, watching her go.

Inside the bullpen, rhinos, buffalo, hippos, and elephants prepared for work. They towered over Judy, but she didn’t mind. She excitedly climbed up into a massive, elephant-sized chair and gazed around the room.

“Hey. Officer Hopps,” Judy extended her paw to a gigantic rhino whose name tag read MCHORN. “You ready to make the world a better place?” she asked sincerely.

McHorn snorted and reluctantly gave her a fist bump, nearly knocking her off her chair.

“TEN-HUT!” shouted one of the officers as Police Chief Bogo, a gruff Cape buffalo, entered the room. Everyone instantly fell in line and started stomping on the floor.

“All right, all right. Everybody sit,” said Bogo. “I’ve got three items on the docket. First, we need to acknowledge the elephant in the room.” He nodded toward an elephant officer. “Francine, happy birthday.”

The shy elephant blushed as the cops clapped, snorted, and hooted. “Number two: there are some new recruits with us I should introduce. But I’m not going to, because I don’t care.”

Bogo moved toward a map. “Finally, we have fourteen missing mammal cases,” he said, gesturing to the pushpin-covered map. “FOURTEEN CASES. Now, that’s more than we’ve ever had, and City Hall is right up my tail to solve them. This is priority one. Assignments!”

Bogo began barking out assignments as one of the officers handed out case files. “Officers Grizzoli, Fangmeyer, Delgato: your teams take missing mammals from the Rainforest District. Officers McHorn, Rhinowitz, Wolfard: your teams take Sahara Square. Officers Higgins, Snarlov, Trunkaby: Tundratown. And finally, our first bunny, Officer Hopps.”

Judy sat up, she’d been waiting anxiously for her assignment. Bogo grabbed the last case file from Higgins and held it dramatically in the air as he looked at Judy.

“Parking duty. Dismissed!”

“Parking duty?” asked Judy quietly. She hurried after Bogo. “Uh, Chief? Chief Bogo?”

Bogo looked around and saw no one until he looked down to see Judy at his ankles.

“Sir, you said there are fourteen missing mammal cases.”

“So?”

“So I can handle one. You probably forgot, but I was top of my class at the academy.”

“Didn’t forget. Just don’t care.”

“Sir, I’m not just some token bunny.”

“Well, then writing a hundred tickets a day should be easy,” said Bogo, walking out and slamming the door behind him.

“A hundred tickets,” said Judy, stomping her foot. She turned toward the closed door and shouted, “I’m gonna write two hundred tickets! Before noon!”

第 5 章

滴滴!滴滴!滴滴!听到晨起的闹铃，朱迪跳下了床。她洗脸，刷牙，漱口。然后她穿上马甲，别上徽章，束上腰带。她已经做好保护这座城市的准备!她瞄了一眼床头柜上放着的那罐粉色防狐液，然后走出门，把它留在了那里。但是片刻之后，她又折回房间，一把抓起了那瓶防狐液——只是以防万一。

她离开了公寓，去动物城警察局报到!

走进嘈杂而宽敞的动物城警察局时，朱迪双眼瞪得浑圆。高大魁梧的警察推着罪犯穿过大厅，大家忙得团团转。她左右躲闪着避开几个健壮的动物，终于推开人群挤到了前台。在那里，一只友善的、胖嘟嘟的猎豹正坐着与其他几位警察聊天。

朱迪面带着微笑朝他走过去，但是他看不到朱迪，因为朱迪还没有桌子高。

“打扰一下!”朱迪朝桌子上方喊道，“下面这里。下面。这里。你好。”

那只猎豹从桌子上探过身子，才看到朱迪穿着制服站在那里。

“哦，天哪!”他说道，“他们真的招了个兔子。什么!我跟你说，你比我想象中还要可爱。”

朱迪皱了皱眉头。“哦，嗯，我敢肯定你不知道，对我们兔子而言……‘可爱’这个词的意思是——它有点——”

“哦!真是对不起。我，本杰明·克劳豪瑟，大伙儿都说我是个肌肉松弛、爱吃甜甜圈的警察，认为你就是……”他抱歉地说道。

“没什么。哦，呃，实际上你已经——实际上——”朱迪结结巴巴地说着，努力想着该怎么描述出来。“有个——你脖子上——褶子……有个——”

克劳豪瑟从脖子上的一圈赘肉下取出一个小小的甜甜圈。“又来这一套，你这个小淘气!”克劳豪瑟对那个甜甜圈说道。接着，他欢快地将它塞进了嘴里。

“我该去点名了，所以……我该去哪里……?”朱迪问道。“哦!”嘴巴里塞满甜甜圈的克劳豪瑟说道，“办公室在那边，往左走。”

“好极了，谢谢!”朱迪说完，便匆忙走开了。

“哦……那个可怜的小兔子会被活吞的。”他一边看着朱迪离开一边说道。

办公室里，犀牛、水牛、河马和大象准备工作了。他们都比朱迪高出很多，但是朱迪毫不介意。她兴奋地爬上一把像大象那么大的敦实座椅，惊奇地左顾右盼。

“嗨，我是霍普斯警官。”朱迪向一头巨大的犀牛伸出了爪子，他的铭牌上写着“麦大角”字样。“您愿意让这个世界更美好吗?”她诚挚地问道。

麦大角哼了一声，很不情愿地和她碰了碰拳头，差一点把她从椅子上撞翻。

“立——正!”随着博格局长——一头脾气暴躁的非洲水牛走进房间，一位警官喊道。大家立即站成一队，在地板上跺了一下脚。

“好，好。大家坐下，”牛局长说道，“我有三件事情要宣布。第一，我们要感谢房间里的大象。”他朝大象警官点了点头，继续说道：“法兰欣，生日快乐。”

警官们有的拍手，有的哼着鼻子，还有的发出嘘声，这头害羞的大象脸颊绯红。“第二，我们来了一些新成员，我应该做个介绍，但是我不打算介绍，因为我不在乎。”

牛局长移步到一幅地图前。“最后，我们有14起动物失踪案件，”他指着图钉下的地图说道，“14起。现在的这个数字超过了以往任何时候，而市政厅也一直追着我要破案。这是头号要案。开始下达任务!”

在一名警官分发案件卷宗时，牛局长开始大声喊着下达任务。“格里佐里, 法格梅尔, 迪卡图警官：你们负责救回热带雨林区的失踪动物。麦大角、瑞诺温兹, 沃法德警官：你们负责撒哈拉广场。希金斯, 斯纳罗伍, 牛局长警官：你们负责冰川镇。最后，我们的第一位兔子霍普斯警官。”

朱迪坐直身子，她一直在焦急地等待着自己的任务。牛局长看了看朱迪，一把从希金斯手中夺过最后一份卷宗，夸张地把它举到半空中。

“停车场值班。解散!”

“停车场值班?”朱迪悄声问道。她急忙去追赶牛局长。“呃，局长?牛局长?”

牛局长环顾四周，谁也没看到，直到他低下头，才看到在他脚踝边的朱迪。

“局长，你刚才说有14起动物失踪案件。”

“那又怎样?”

“那么我可以处理一起。你可能不记得了，我之前是警察学院的尖子生。”

“没忘。只不过不在乎罢了。”

“局长，我可不是做摆设的兔子。”

“哦，那一天开一百张罚单应该很轻松。”牛局长说着，走了出去，还随手关上了门。

“一百张罚单。”朱迪一边说，一边抬起了一只脚重重地跺了一下。她转身面对关闭的门大喊道：“我要开两百张罚单!而且是在中午之前!”
