Le garçon s’appelle Dongdong. « Dongdong, tu vas jouer avec Panpan, d’accord ?» demande la tante Wen. « Non, je veux rester avec maman. » dit Dongdong. Il est prudent car il n’est pas familier. « Il y a une balançoire dans la cour, nous allons faire de la balançoire, d’accord ? » dit Panpan. Dongdong a hésité un moment, il hoche la tête en accord. Dongdong et Panpan viennent à la balançoire, Dongdong s’assied sur la balançoire, et Panpan le pousse derrière. Un moment plus tard, Dongdong est très joyeux, il n’est plus prudent. « Panpan, tu t’assieds, je te pousse. » dit Dongdong. « D’accord. » Panpan s’assied sur la balançoire et Dongdong le pousse derrière. A ce moment, la tante Wen et mère de Panpan descendent. « Dongdong, on devrait rentrer à la maison. » dit la tante Wen. « Maman, je veux jouer à la balançoire avec Panpan pendant un moment. » dit Dongdong. Dongdong et Panpan jouent pendant dix minutes. Dongdong part à contrecoeur avec la tante Wen.

Foucus on playing games That day was very hot, the temperature was almost 38℃. Panpan stayed at home with the air conditioner on. “Ding…ding…” the telephone rang. “hello, this is Panpan, who’s that?” “This is Minmin, it’s very hot today, what are you doing?” “I stay at home, watch TV and play games. How about you?” “My air conditioner is broken, but nobody repair it. So, it’s very hot in my home, can I go to your home?” “Of course, come on. I just feel bored.” After a while, Minmin came to Panpan’s home. Panpan took out a lot of foods: yogurt, chocolate, cookies and snacks. They played the PC games with eating. By the time of dinner, they had been playing the PC games for more than three hours. They were so focused that didn’t noticed Panpan’s mother walking into Panpan’s home. “It’s time for dinner, guys!” said Panpan’s mother. “Oh, Mom, when do you come in?” asked Panpan, “you should knock before coming in.” “I knocked, but no one answered, so I came in.” said his mother, “it’s enough of playing, you both go to dining room for dinner now.” “We aren’t hungry,” said Panpan as he pointed to the food bags, “we have eaten some snacks.” “You guys stop playing the games and go for dinner.” Panpan’s mother said angrily.

Attendre et Espérer Panpan, Minmin et Lanlan vont au cinéma, ils vont voir le film de science-fiction.

Ce film est très populaire. Quand ils arrivent le cinéma, c’était plein de monde. Le film commence après un moment. La scène du film est magnifique, la musique du film est impressionnante. « Ce film est très bon ! » dit Panpan après le film. « Le héro est vraiment incroyable, il a survécu dans un environnement si difficile. » dit Minmin. « Ce n’est pas impossible si tu as suffisamment de connaissances et de compétences. » dit Lanlan. « Ainsi que le courage. » dit Panpan. « Le courage d’affronter les difficultés seul. » « Ce film me rappelle une phrase: toute la sagesse humaine sera dans ces deux mots: Attendre et Espérer. » dit Lanlan. « D’accord. Cette phrase vient de Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, » dit Minmin, « le héro du film doit avoir lu ce livre, il a une telle sagesse. » « Le Comte de Monte-Cristo, je dois aussi lire ce livre. » dit Panpan.
