 Susie, guess what? 苏西,你猜怎么了?

Hmm... I don't know, Taylor. Tell me. 恩...我不知道,泰勒。告诉我吧。
My friend Cole has an amazing new pet. 我的朋友科尔养了一个奇怪的新宠物。
Really? What kind of animal is it? 真的吗?那是什么动物?
A wolf. He has the cutest wolf pup. 一只狼。他养了一只非常可爱的小狼崽。
A wolf pup! That's terrible! Wolves shouldn't be pets. 一只小狼崽!那可不好啊!狼不应该成为宠物的。
Why not? Cole's wolf pup is so sweet. He's fun to play with. 为什么不行?科尔的小狼崽很可爱。和它一起玩儿也很有趣。
Taylor, a pet wolf is a bad idea. Adult wolves are dangerous. 泰勒,宠物狼可不是一个好主意。成年狼很危险的。
That's true, but Cole's wolf is little. He's only 10 weeks old. 没错,但是科尔的狼很小。只有10周大。
He won't be small for long. He'll grow! 它不会一直这么小的。它会长大的!
Cole will train him, so he'll be a good pet. 科尔会训练它的,所以它会是一只很棒的宠物。
You can't train wolves well. They are wild! Their natural habits are strange to people. 你训练不好狼的。它们是野生动物!它们的自然习性对人来说很陌生。
What kind of habits? 什么习性呢?
Well, wolves hug each other. 恩,狼会互相拥抱。
What's wrong with that? 那有什么问题?
They use their mouths to hug. 它们是嘴来拥抱的。
Oh. That would scare me. Maybe you're right, Susie. Wolves are beautiful, but they make bad pets. 哦。那会吓坏我的。也许你是对的,苏西。狼是很漂亮,但是不适合当宠物。
Yes. And wolves need to live in a pack. Cole should find his wolf a better home. 是的。而且狼需要群居。科尔应该给他的狼找一个更好的家。
OK. I'll tell him. 好的。我会告诉他的。
