The story

马克：大卫，你一个人在家吗？小雨呢？David, are you home alone? Where's Xiaoyu?

大卫：她和乐乐去商场了。你怎么这么紧张？She went to the mall with Lele. Why are you so nervous?

马克：我有一个秘密。你不能告诉其他人！I have a secret. You can't tell anyone else!

大卫：好，我不告诉其他人。什么秘密？OK, I won't tell anyone else. What secret?

马克：等一下，我们换个地方说吧。包子在那儿，他会听见的。Hang on, let's talk somewhere else. Baozi's over there. He'll hear.

大卫：包子是猫！他不会告诉其他人。Baozi's a cat! He's not going to tell anyone.

马克：可是他是明星，上过新闻，还上过报纸！But he's a star! He's been on the news and in the papers!

大卫：他现在只是一只普通的猫。He's just an ordinary cat now.
