The story

妈妈：大卫，告诉你一个好消息：我们十二月来成都！David, good news: we're coming to Chengdu in December!

大卫：真的吗？小雨，你听见了吗？我父母要来了！Really? Xiaoyu, did you hear that? My parents are coming!

妈妈：我的签证已经拿到了，你爸爸的签证也拿到了。I've got my visa already, and your dad's got his too.

爸爸：对，签证没问题！不过……我的护照呢？Yep, the visas are fine! But... where's my passport?

妈妈：什么？难道你的护照又找不到了？签证就在护照里啊！What? Don't tell me you've lost your passport again? The visa's IN the passport!

小雨：大卫，你爸爸经常找不到东西吗？David, does your dad often lose things?

大卫：经常。我跟他一样。All the time. I'm just like him.

大卫：我父母要在成都住两个星期！我们要准备什么？My parents are staying in Chengdu for two weeks! What do we need to get ready?
