In our village, there was an old man who was really a stick in the mud. Last year, his grandson was engaged to a girl. The old man was so happy because he knew that he would be able to invite all the relatives to have a big feast. But the young couple didn't want to waste money on that. They had decided to travel to spend their honeymoon. The old man didn't agree and he insisted that they should hold a big wedding ceremony at home. Do you know what happened finally? The young couple decided to spend their honeymoon earlier before the wedding ceremony. They two had agreed to keep it a secret and wouldn't let the cat out of the bag, for they didn't want to make the old man so unhappy.

一位性格顽固的老人总希望自己的孙子在家里操办婚礼，也好请亲戚邻居来聚一次。这样也很风光。可是偏偏时尚的年轻人喜欢旅行结婚。结果两个人商量好在婚礼之前偷偷的去度蜜月，并保证这个秘密不让老人家知道。

1) He is an old stick in the mud. 他是个老顽固！
2) Don't let the cat out of the bag. 不要泄露秘密！

【请你猜猜看】挑战自我，情景抢答也刺激！

Here are three situations:

S1. My grandmother keeps all the old traditions and doesn't want to try anything new. What kind of woman do you think my grandmother is?

S2. My sister and I have decided to watch a pop movie tomorrow evening. But we cannot tell this to my mother. Do you know why? The ticket for the movie will be about 50RMB, which my mother can hardly bear because for her, the ticket is too expensive. So we have made up our mind to keep it a secret! Can you tell me another way to express "keep it a secret"?

S3. That is the secret between you and I. Please don't tell it to our teacher, or else I will be punished and I won't be able to pass my final exam. In that case, my father will also beat me up. Can you remember what suggestion I have given to you just now?
