A friend is coming over in just an hour, but the room is a mess. A brother and sister scramble to split up the cleaning.
One Hour to Go
妹妹看了看手机,跑进哥哥的房间。
The little sister glanced at her phone and ran into her brother's room.
Sister
哥,小李一个小时以后就来啦!
Hey, Xiao Li is going to be here in an hour!
Brother
什么?你看,桌子上、椅子上都是书,太了。
What? Look at this, there are books all over the desk and the chairs. It's such a mess.
Each to Their Own Job
Brother
这样吧,你洗杯子,我来椅子。
Let's do this: you wash the cups, and I'll move the chairs.
Sister
好!哥,这些衣服放在哪儿啊?
Okay! Hey, where should I put all these clothes?
哥哥一边桌子,一边说:「放床上,快点儿!」
Wiping the desk as he spoke, the brother said, "Just toss them on the bed, hurry up!"
Right as the Bell Rings
Sister
哥,你看,房间现在多!
Look, the room is so clean now!
话还没说完,就响了。
Before she could even finish her sentence, the doorbell rang.
Brother
!我们坐下来喝杯茶,等小李吧。
Perfect timing! Let's sit down, have a cup of tea, and wait for Xiao Li.
