卢卡斯九岁。他想要一只狗。他早上想要一只狗，中午想要一只狗，晚上也想要一只狗。他每天都想要一只狗。

Lukas is nine years old. He wants a dog. He wants a dog in the morning, at lunchtime and in the evening. He wants a dog every day.

“妈妈，求你了！要一只狗吧！”“不行，卢卡斯。养一只狗有很多事情要做。”

“Mum, please! A dog!” “No, Lukas. A dog is a lot of work.”

“爸爸，求你了！要一只狗吧！”“不行，卢卡斯。狗很吵。而且它会弄坏所有东西。”

“Dad, please! A dog!” “No, Lukas. A dog is noisy. And it breaks everything.”

“但是我来做所有事情！”卢卡斯说。“我和狗去走走。我给它吃东西。我和它玩。每天都去！”

“But I’ll do everything!” says Lukas. “I’ll take the dog for walks. I’ll give it food. I’ll play with it. Every day!”

妈妈看爸爸。爸爸看妈妈。“嗯，”妈妈说。“嗯，”爸爸说。

Mum looks at Dad. Dad looks at Mum. “Hmm,” says Mum. “Hmm,” says Dad.

门铃响了。鲍尔先生站在门前。他住在楼下。他有一只狗。那只狗叫奥托。奥托很小，是白色的，非常活泼。

Just then the doorbell rings. Mr Bauer is standing at the door. He lives downstairs in the building. He has a dog. The dog’s name is Otto. Otto is small, white and very wild.

“我有一个问题，”鲍尔先生说。“我明天去意大利，去一个星期。但是奥托不能去。奥托可以在您家住一个星期吗？”

“I have a problem,” says Mr Bauer. “I’m going to Italy tomorrow, for one week. But Otto can’t come. Can Otto stay with you for a week?”

卢卡斯跳起来。“好！好！好！”爸爸笑了。“好。一个星期。卢卡斯，这是一个测试。”

Lukas jumps up. “Yes! Yes! Yes!” Dad laughs. “All right. One week. This is a test, Lukas.”

星期一。奥托来了。它在房子里跑。它跑进厨房，跑进卫生间，跑进卧室。它跳上沙发。它跳上爸爸的床。

Monday. Otto arrives. He runs through the flat. He runs into the kitchen, into the bathroom and into the bedroom. He jumps onto the sofa. He jumps onto Dad’s bed.

卢卡斯早上和奥托去走走。他中午和奥托去走走。他晚上和奥托去走走。晚上卢卡斯很累。但是他很高兴。

Lukas takes Otto for a walk in the morning. He takes Otto for a walk at lunchtime. He takes Otto for a walk in the evening. In the evening Lukas is very tired. But he is happy.

星期二。下雨了。奥托不想去雨里。卢卡斯等它。奥托也等。后来奥托尿了一小滩水。在厨房里。卢卡斯擦地。

Tuesday. It is raining. Otto doesn’t want to go out in the rain. Lukas waits. Otto waits too. Then Otto makes a puddle. In the kitchen. Lukas cleans the floor.

星期三。奥托找到了爸爸的鞋子。它觉得鞋子很好吃。爸爸觉得不好笑。

Wednesday. Otto finds Dad’s shoes. He finds the shoes very tasty. Dad does not find that funny.
