“Eee!” WALL · E beeped. He didn’t like this thing at all. He quickly tossed the paddle aside and turned toward something else—a fire extinguisher, though WALL · E didn’t know that. He simply saw something that was red and kind of heavy. WALL · E examined it until he found what he was looking for: a lever. Usually, levers activated something. WALL · E pulled it. WHOOSH!The blast from the extinguisher propelled WALL · E into a loop-the-loop, spinning him over and over until he finally crash-landed in the trash. WALL · E moaned. He couldn’t figure out what use humans had found for this shiny red object. Perhaps it had been some sort of game, but he didn’t like it. Time to move on.
“哔——”瓦力叫道。他一点都不喜欢这个东西。他迅速地将球拍抛到一边，转向另一样东西——一个灭火器，虽然他不知道它是什么。他只是看见了一样红色的、有点沉的东西。瓦力细细查看它，直到找到了他要找的东西：一根拉杆。拉杆通常都能启动什么东西。瓦力拉动了拉杆。 “呼”的一声，灭火器喷出一股泡沫，撞得瓦力在半空中连翻了几个跟头，一阵天旋地转之后终于摔落在垃圾堆中。 瓦力呻吟一声。他想象不出人类能拿这个闪亮的红色物品派什么用处。也许这是用来玩某种游戏的，但他不喜欢这个游戏。该继续干活了。
