小猫去哪儿了？ The lost cat

Zuótiān xiàwǔ, Ānnà xiàbān huí dào jiā, xiǎo māo bú zài jiā lǐ le. Tā zhǎo le fángjiān, hái zhǎo le mén wàibian, dōu méiyǒu zhǎo dào.

昨天下午，安娜下班回到家，小猫不在家里了。她找了房间，还找了门外边，都没有找到。

Yesterday afternoon, Anna came home from work and her cat wasn’t there. She searched the rooms and then outside the door, but couldn’t find it.

Tā zhǎo bú dào xiǎo māo, jiù gěi péngyou dǎdiànhuà. Péngyou shuō:"méiguānxi, māo kěnéng zài lóu xià wán ér ne. Wǒ xiànzài jiù guòlái bāng nǐ zhǎo."

她找不到小猫，就给朋友打电话。朋友说：“没关系，猫可能在楼下玩儿呢。我现在就过来帮你找。”

She couldn’t find the cat, so she phoned a friend. Her friend said, “It’s OK, maybe the cat is playing downstairs. I’ll come over now and help you look.”

Guò le shí fēnzhōng, péngyou lái le. Tāmen zhèng yào chūmén, tīng dào chuáng xiàmiàn yǒu māo jiào. Ānnà yí kàn, xiǎo māo zhèngzài chuáng xiàmiàn shuìjiào ne! Liǎng gè rén dōu xiào le.

过了十分钟，朋友来了。她们正要出门，听到床下面有猫叫。安娜一看，小猫正在床下面睡觉呢！两个人都笑了。

Ten minutes later her friend arrived. Just as they were about to go out, they heard a miaow under the bed. Anna looked, and the cat was asleep under the bed! They both laughed.
