So the open curly brace followed by the closed curly brace means everything inside of these curly braces should get executed, but only if that first condition is actually true.

所以左花括号后面跟着,右花括号，这意味着花括号里面所有的代码,都应该是要被执行的，但只有当第一个条件是正确的。

- So double bar means if this condition or this one -- and maybe even both -- are true, go down this road and execute that code.

所以复纵线意思是，如果这两个条件之一-,或者两个都--是成立的，那就继续,执行后面的代码。

And if the condition is true, then it goes back and does it again.

如果条件成立，然后它回头再处理一次。

As an aside, if you ever just have one line of code that you want to execute, one puzzle piece in Scratch terminology, ; you actually don't need the curly braces; you only need the curly braces if you have two or more lines of code that you want to execute if that condition is true.

此外，如果你只有一行代码,需要执行，在Scratch，术语中叫做,一句代码，你就不需要使用花括号了;,如果那个条件成立，你有两行或更多行的代码时需要执行时,你就需要花括号。
