Today is Thursday, Mar. 28, 2019.

  First, listen to the dialogue twice, then try to answer the questions after the dialogue.

  首先,聽兩遍對話,然後試着回答對話後的問題。

  "Lily, I'll tell you a family secret," she whispered with great interest. "It's about my dad's private money. Do you want to hear this story?"

  "I want to know! Because my mother is also in charge of the economy in my family.I guess my dad is also secretly saving a sum of money."Lily raised her voice and said.

  "One day, my mom came home early from work, and then called my dad saying that the house was in chaos because of steal.

  The safe was opened and cash and valuables all disappeared." she tried to recall the situation as best as she could.

  "Then my mom asked my dad where his private money was, and she needed to check if it was still there. And she would tell the police how much we lost in all."

  "And then? What did your father say?"

  "Of course, my dad told my mom the truth!"

  "Really?"

  "Yes! Under the bed, in the sofa cover, in the socks, and in the pillow cover... In a word, he told my mother all about the hiding places. It was said to be a lot of money."

  "Well, I'd like to ask if there was any burglary in your house?"

  "Of course not!"

  Dialogue

  "Lily, I'll tell you a family secret," she whispered with great interest. "It's about my dad's private money. Do you want to hear this story?"

  “莉莉,我給你講一個我們家的祕密,”她很有興致地小聲說,“是關於我爸存私房錢的事情,你想聽聽這個故事嗎?”

  "I want to know! Because my mother is also in charge of the economy in my family.I guess my dad is also secretly saving a sum of money."Lily raised her voice and said.

  “想!因爲在我家也是我媽獨攬經濟大權。我猜測我爸一定也揹着我媽攢了私房錢哈哈。”莉莉音量明顯提高了。

  "One day, my mom came home early from work, and then called my dad saying that the house was in chaos because of steal.

  “有一天,我媽下班回家比較早,就給我爸打電話,說家裏遭了賊,一片混亂。

  The safe was opened and cash and valuables all disappeared." she tried to recall the situation as best as she could.

  保險箱被打開了,現金和值錢的東西都不見了。”她試圖還原當時的情況。

  "Then my mom asked my dad where his private money was, and she needed to check if it was still there. And she would tell the police how much we lost in all."

  “然後我媽問我爸,他攢的私房錢都放哪兒了,需要趕緊看看還在不在,需要給警察備案。”

  "And then? What did your father say?"

  “然後呢?你爸怎麼說?”

  "Of course, my dad told my mom the truth!"

  “我爸當然都跟我媽老實交代了!”

  "Really?"

  “是嗎?”

  "Yes! Under the bed, in the sofa cover, in the socks, and in the pillow cover... In a word, he told my mother all about the hiding places. It was said to be a lot of money."

  “是的!牀底下,沙發套內,襪子裏,還有枕頭套子裏……總之,他把藏錢的窩點全部跟我媽說了。據說數目不小呢。”

  "Well, I'd like to ask if there was any burglary in your house?"

  “呃,我想問一下,那你們家到底有沒有被小偷入室偷竊呢?”

  "Of course not!"

  “當然沒有!”
