The story

主持人：大家好！我们是成都电视台的。今天的节目由我主持。Hello, everyone! We're from Chengdu TV. I'll be hosting today's show.

主持人：我们在你们家做现场直播！We're broadcasting live from your home!

大卫：现场直播？那说错了，可以重新说吗？Live? So if I say something wrong, can I say it again?

主持人：不可以。这是直播，你说什么，观众马上就听到。No. This is live. Whatever you say, the viewers hear it straight away.

小雨：大卫，你少说话。David, say as little as possible.

A：都安装好了！三台相机：一台拍包子，一台拍宝宝，一台拍你们！All set up! Three cameras: one for Baozi, one for the baby, and one for you!

小雨：这么多灯，家里真暖和！With all these lights, it's lovely and warm in here!

乐乐：主持直播，难吗？我将来也想当主持人！Is hosting a live show hard? I want to be a host when I grow up!
