分章摘要 · 12 章
Ch.1 A Bathroom Emergency:A.J. 承认他有时并不想上厕所,只是想借口离开教室透透气。这天他去男厕所待了一会儿,为了装作真的上过厕所就冲了马桶,结果水不往下流反而不断上涨,最后溢到地上。他吓得跑出去大喊学校里有火山爆发,校长克鲁兹先生赶来用对讲机呼叫拉扎女士。
Ch.2 Miss Lazar to the Rescue:校工拉扎女士骑着电动小车赶到,自称"超级校工",还说她喜欢脏乱,因为孩子不制造麻烦她就没工作。她在马桶里掏出一把蜡笔,证明是有人把蜡笔塞进了马桶,大家却都怀疑地看着 A.J.。她修好后被对讲机叫走,临走说了句"Duty calls",让男孩们笑个不停。
Ch.3 The Greatest Idea in the History of the World:广播提醒学生不要往马桶里塞蜡笔,全班都看向 A.J.,可他确实没做。课间安德莉亚坚称他想淹了学校好回家,A.J. 一气之下把艾米莉的网球扔上了学校屋顶。艾米莉哭了,安德莉亚威胁要告状让他停学,A.J. 只好答应把球拿回来。
Ch.4 Up on the Roof:三个男孩下到地下室去找拉扎女士帮忙,发现她房间里全是工具,角落还有一扇写着"秘密房间"的门。拉扎女士带上马桶搋子像牛仔别枪一样插在腰带上,然后徒手攀上学校的砖墙爬到屋顶。她扔下屋顶上积攒的各种玩具和物品,全校学生欢呼她像蜘蛛侠。
Ch.5 A Visit from Mr. Klutz:同学罗比被妈妈接走了,说是身体不舒服。克鲁兹先生来班里介绍新的 MEAN 计划(Make Excellence A Necessity),要把学校办成全州最聪明的学校。可孩子们提的问题全都围着拉扎女士转,还问马桶是不是闹鬼,克鲁兹先生越听越不耐烦,最后借口离开。
Ch.6 The Haunted Toilet Bowl:马桶闹鬼的传闻传遍全校,所有男生一整天都不敢上厕所,憋得难受。克鲁兹先生把全校男生集中到体育馆保证厕所安全,可没人相信他。孩子们高喊要拉扎女士来,她一说不闹鬼,大家就认定是她"杀死了鬼",然后男生们全都冲向厕所。
Ch.7 Miss Lazar's Secret Identity:罗比第二天还是没来,老师说他得了水痘。男孩们一边做慰问卡一边推测拉扎女士是超级英雄:有制服、有秘密基地。A.J. 猜校工身份只是她的秘密身份,还猜罗比其实被关在秘密房间里。数学课上黛西老师连三的乘法表都不会,A.J. 却一心想着要溜进秘密房间一探究竟。
Ch.8 The Secret of the Secret Room:A.J. 传纸条约michael和瑞恩放学后行动,瑞恩看完把纸条吃了说是销毁证据。趁拉扎女士在餐厅拖地,三人溜进地下室打开了秘密房间的门。里面挂满了大约二十把各式各样的马桶搋子,还配着说明卡片,简直是搋子博物馆。A.J. 感叹拉扎女士真是古怪。
Ch.9 Sad, Depressed Mr. Klutz:午餐时安德莉亚一脸忧愁,说她当心理学家的妈妈教过她,克鲁兹先生是因为嫉妒拉扎女士抢走了所有掌声而抑郁了。大家商量要让校长当一回英雄,正好周三是拉扎女士的休息日。A.J. 提议把东西扔上屋顶再请校长去取,安德莉亚夸他是天才。
Ch.10 A New Hero:A.J. 试了三次终于把安德莉亚的午餐盒扔上屋顶。会演戏的安德莉亚去校长室夸张地求助,A.J. 被追问时谎称是"隐形朋友"让他扔的。克鲁兹先生脱下拳击手套爬上墙,取回午餐盒扔下来,全校欢呼他是英雄——可他往下爬到一半时卡住了。
Ch.11 Another Emergency:克鲁兹先生吊在墙上一动不敢动,说怕摔下来。斯莫尔老师让学生搬来体操垫铺在下面。A.J. 和安德莉亚互相推卸责任。库尼护士要打电话叫消防队,克鲁兹先生却坚决不肯——因为他每周和消防队长打壁球,怕被笑话一辈子,最后他喊着让大家去叫拉扎女士。
Ch.12 Hooray for Miss Lazar!:拉扎女士休息日也赶来救援。她让 A.J. 去秘密房间取来带孔木柄的蓝色搋子,用绳子系好后爬上屋顶,把搋子吸在校长的光头上,再用绳子慢慢把他放到地面。全校欢呼,安德莉亚说校长幸好是秃头,瑞恩打趣说那搋子"真吸"。搋子一时取不下来,克鲁兹先生却说无所谓,它救了他的命。

第 2 关 Vocabulary & Language Points 词汇与语言点 · 5 题
25
Why do A.J., Michael and Ryan giggle every time Miss Lazar says "Duty calls!"?为什么每次拉扎女士说"Duty calls!",男孩们都会偷笑?
Ans: "Duty" (a job you must do) sounds exactly like "doody," a silly kid word for poop. It is a homophone joke.duty(职责)和 doody(小孩说的"便便")发音完全相同,这是一个同音词双关的笑点。
26
What does the title word "bizarre" mean, and which other word does A.J. use again and again for the same idea?书名里的 bizarre 是什么意思?A.J. 反复用哪个词表达同样的意思?
Ans: "Bizarre" means very strange or odd. A.J. keeps saying "weird" — Miss Lazar is weird, Mr. Klutz is weird, Emily is weird, Ryan is weird.bizarre 意为"非常古怪、离奇"。A.J. 反复使用的同义词是 weird(奇怪的),书里几乎人人都被他说成 weird。
27
Ryan says, "Wow! That plunger really sucks!" Why is this line a pun?瑞恩说"那搋子真 suck!"这句话为什么是双关?
Ans: "Suck" literally means to pull by suction, which is how the plunger held Mr. Klutz's head. In slang, "that sucks" means something is bad — so it is a compliment and an insult at once.suck 字面意思是"吸",正是搋子吸住校长脑袋的原理;而俚语里 that sucks 又表示"很糟糕",一句话同时是夸奖和吐槽。
28
A.J. calls Andrea a "brownnoser." What does that slang word mean?A.J. 说安德莉亚是个 brownnoser,这个俚语是什么意思?
Ans: A brownnoser is someone who flatters teachers or adults to get their approval — a suck-up or teacher's pet.brownnoser 指爱拍老师或大人马屁、讨好求表扬的人,相当于中文的"马屁精"。
29
Explain the exaggerations A.J. uses: "a million hundred hours" and "the greatest idea in the history of the world."解释 A.J. 常用的夸张说法:"a million hundred hours" 和 "the greatest idea in the history of the world"。
Ans: Both are hyperbole — huge exaggerations for humor. "A million hundred" is not even a real number, and every idea A.J. has is instantly "the greatest in history."两者都是夸张(hyperbole)修辞,用来制造幽默。"a million hundred"根本不是真实数字,而他每个点子都被他吹成"史上最棒"。
