和老外聊天的地道口语第81期:宠物情缘

（单词翻译）

M: oh, Sam! Is this your dog?
S: it's Cindy, you know that. Hey, Cindy, say hello to Maria.
M: Cindy, you're so cute.
S: she is also very naughty. By the way, do you have a dog, Maria?
M: I have a little white cat.
S: Oh, a cat? Come on.
M: yes, cats are always gentle. and they don't need a lot of space since they're small.
S: but I think they're dull, aren't they?
M: not at all. They're quiet most of the time.But they can be every bit as affectionate as dogs.
S: well, cats are certainly more independent.
M: absolutely. Believe it or not, I found my cat by a garbage can around my neighborhood two years ago.
S: oh, really? so you just took home a stray¹ cat?
M: yes. It was starving and looking for something to eat when I saw it.
S: Poor cat.
M: now we get along very well. It makes me feel that I'm someone special.
噢,山姆,这是你的狗吗?
它叫辛蒂,你知道的.辛蒂,来,和玛利亚打个招呼吧.
辛蒂,你真可爱.
她也很淘气呢.对了,玛利亚,你养狗吗?
我养了只小白猫.
猫?真的吗?
是的,猫通常都比较温顺,个头也小,养猫不用太大的地方.
可是我觉得养猫很没劲啊.
养猫特别有意思!虽然猫比较安静,但是和狗一样找人喜欢.
嗯,猫肯定没狗那么依赖人.
这倒是.你知道吗,这只猫是2年前在我家附近的垃圾箱旁边捡回来的.
啊,真的吗?你就这样把一只流浪猫抱回家了?
是的.我看见它的时候,它都饿坏了,正在找吃的.
真可怜.
现在我们相处的很好.它总是让我觉得自己很重要.
