"Don't think that just because it's your birthday you can get away with something like this,"Mama scolded (责骂).
"You do want your present,don't you?"That wiped the smile off Calvin's face.
"Course I do,"he said.
"Then you apologize (道歉)."
Calvin dropped his head."Sorry Trudy,"he muttered (嘟囔).

"You don't mean here,do you?"Calvin asked,eyeing his little sister.
"Well,that would be really nice.But those tickets are yours.If you want to ask somebody-"Calvin didn't wait for his mother to finish.He rushed out of the house to cell Rodney,his pal next door,that the two of them were going to see Lomax the Magnificent.
