The story

小雨：大卫，今天面试，你准备好了吗？David, it's your interview today. Are you ready?

大卫：准备好了！但是我有点儿紧张。I'm ready! But I'm a bit nervous.

小雨：别紧张，又不是决赛！经理一般会问你有什么能力。Don't be nervous, it's not the final! The manager will usually ask what you're good at.

大卫：我的能力？我……很高！My abilities? I'm... very tall!

小雨：这不是能力！还有，你要先了解这个公司。喵喵公司是做什么的？That's not an ability! Also, you need to know the company first. What does Miaomiao Company do?

大卫：做……猫？Make... cats?

小雨：做猫饭！你一点儿也不了解！Cat food! You don't know anything about it!

小雨：注意，说话要清楚！And remember: speak clearly!
