In ACT I, Robbie notices that Alexandra is unhappy about something.
- Something wrong Alexandra?
Alexandra is lonely. She misses her family in Greece.
- You really miss your family, don't you?
- Yes.
A little later, they hear a strange sound.
- Do you hear something?
- Yes. What was that?
===============================================================================================================
"Man's Best Friend"
- Robbie, this new walkman is absolutely wonderful.
- Richard and Marilyn bought it for me for my birthday.
- They are so thoughtful. You are very lucky, Robbie, that have such a nice family.
- Something wrong Alexandra? （wrong, it should be: Is something wrong, Alexandra? 原因：前面的is说的很轻，我没概念，所以没听出来）
- No, nothing.
- Yes, there is. I can tell. What's the matter? Come on, you can tell me. What's up?
- I don't know, something is wrong.
- OK, let's talk.
- I received a letter from my parents this morning.
- Did they write some bad news?
- No.
- (But) why you so sad? (wrong, it should be: Well, then why are you so sad? 原因：老外经常以well开头，我没这个意识)
- I miss them, I miss them very much.
- Sorry, Alexandra. But I understand.
- Marilin's tree's so nicely.(wrong, it should be: The Molinas treat me so nicely. 原因：对单词treat不熟悉) And I love being with your family so much. But when I receive the letter with photographs of my family, I cried. I cried because I miss them all.
- You really miss your family, don't you?
- Yes, I know I must seem silly. It's not like I have nobody. I like the Molinas very much, and they are so kind to me.
- Hey, why don't we go out for a cheeseberge and Friench fris.(wrong, it should be: cheeseburger and french fries 原因：对单词cheeseburger和french fries不熟悉) That cheer you up. (wrong, it should be: That'll cheer up you. 原因：其实用脚趾头想想，也应该是that'll cheer you up.)And you can use my walkman.
- That's a good idea. But If we go out, please, don't complain about your math teacher or your math homework. I wanna have fun.
- So do I. I have to turn off the lights around my father will be really angry.(wrong, it should be: I have to turn off the lights, or else my father will get rally angry. 原因：or else这个组合不熟悉，对get angry这个组合也不熟悉) He says I never turn them out when I leave. They came home later on. (wrong, it should be: If they
come home and they're on... 原因：前面的if没有听见，不应该，看来听老外说话一定要注意力非常集中不要放过蛛丝马迹，否则很容易漏掉重要的信息. 另外，对they're on这个说法以前没听过，所以没概念)
- Ao, Ao.
- Do you hear something?
- Yes, what was that?
- It sounds like a dog barking.
- Ao.
- It sounds like a dog barking right here.
- Yeah.
- A dog?
- A spring spaniu. (wrong, it should be: A springer spaniel. 原因：对单词spinger spaniel不知道)Come in, make your suffer home. (wrong, it should be: Come on in. Make yourself at home. 原因：come on in是一个固定搭配，表示进来的意思。 make yourself at home也是一个固定搭配，表示不要客气的意思)
- Oh, you pool little thing. Come here.
- Come on.
- Poor baby.
- Where did you come from?
- Named Gemma.(wrong, it should be: Her name's Gemma. 原因，还是跟先前说到的一样，老外说话，最开头的词语说的又快又轻) And she belongs to Mr&Mrs Levinson. There's a phone number. 5558448. Robbe, maybe you should call them. Tell the Levinsons we have their keep little speniu. (wrong, it should be: Tell the Levinsons we have their cute little spaniel. 原因：对cute这个单词不熟悉)
- I'm always wanna a spence speniu.(wrong, it should be: I've always wanted a springer spaniel. 原因：对I've开头不太熟悉) She is so cute.
- "The number you are calling 5558448 is no longer in service."
- The nubmer is no longer in service.
- Oh, you poor, poor baby. You lost your family.
- We'll find them. Don't worry Alexandra.

"SO" AND "SUCH"
Alexandra and I are such good friends. We always use them gother,(wrong, it should be: We listen to music together and,) go places togther and talk about things. Like today, Alexandra was so unhappy. And I didn't understand why first.
- I received a letter from my parents this morning.
- Did they write some bad news?
- No.
- Well, then why are you so sad?
Then I realized Alexandra was lonely. She was so lonley without her family.
- You really miss your family, don't you?
- Yes. I know I must seem silly. It's no like I have nobody. I like the Molina very much and they're so kind to me.
She seemed so sad. I had to cheer her up. I got an idea. We always have such a good time when we go out together.
- Hey, why don't we go out for a cheeseburge and French fries. That'll cheer you up.
But then Gemma showed up.
- A dog?
I think Alexandra felt better. She was lonely when she missed her family.(wrong, it should be: She wasn't the only one who missed her family. 原因：还是语感不行) Gemma did too. Gemma was so lonely. With such a sad face. And Alexandra understood.
- Oh, you poor poor baby, you lost your family.
- Don't worry Alexandra. We'll find them.
