ACT III
- OK. If you wanna adopt to an anamal, first we need to know some references.
- References? People we know?
- Friends, teachers, we need to talk to some people about you. We wanna be sure whether you be responsible(wrong, it should be: We wanna be sure that you 're responsible 原因：that you连读的时候，t和y发音是连在一起的，美国人经常这样发音，我还不熟悉), and that you can take good care of anamal. Then you have to fill out this form about your family background.
- Is that it?
- No, there's more. We need to know about your history with anamals. Have you ever own the anamal?(wrong, it should be: Have you ever owned an animal? 原因：语感)
- Yes, we had a cat when I was eight years old, I love cats.
- Do you have any anamals now?
- Unfortunately no.
- Anything else?
- We also like to know your reasons for wanting an anamal?
- Just hold it and catle with it. Just have it's pan. I love anamals.(wrong, it should be: Just to hold it and cuddle with it. Just to have as a pet. 原因：对just这个词还是拿捏不准，just to. cuddle这个单词不认识，拥抱的意思)
- To have a friend, a pal. You know, man's best friend is a dog. (wrong, it should be: You know, man's best friend is his dog. 原因：Robbie说太快时，his没听清楚)
- And one thing more, if you are under 21 years of age?
- That's me.
- Then an adult must sign for you.
- Ah eh.
- No problem. My parents will think it's a good idea. I'll be back with them.
- If the real owners don't come to claim Gemma.
- After 48 hours. But please call first.
- Thanks for your information and for being so helpful.
- It's my pleasure. Nice talking to both of you.
- Thanks again. Bye.
- Maybe the real owners will come to claim her.
- Her eyes look so sad. She must really miss them.
- I see you both are anamals lovers.(wrong, it should be: I see you're both animal lovers. 原因：语感的原因吧，you both are 与you're both，拿个更顺耳呢？)
- We are.
- Goodbye Miss Aberm.(wrong, it should be: Goodbye, Miss Aborn. 原因：对美国人的名字不熟悉，需要长期积累) We'll call couple of days. (wrong, it should be: We'll call in a couple of days. 原因：in a couple of days 两三天后)
- Goodbye. And comes for being Gemma in.(wrong, it should be: And thanks for bringing Gemma in. 原因：这个听错得太离谱了，没原因，只是对bringing这个时态的发音有点不敏感)
- Bye.
Later that day ...
- I keep thinking about the dog. About Gemma. Alonely in anamal shelter.
- I know. But I promise you Alexandra. The dog is just fine. They are very kind to anamals.
- I know they are. I mean about her being alone. Even they are kind to Gemma,(wrong, it should be: Even if they are kind to Gemma. 原因：if没听出来，不应该) She's still alone without her family.
- Ready fox? (wrong, it should be: Ready, folks? 原因：对folks这个词语不熟悉，应该是各位的意思，这个词要注意)
- Are you ready Alexandra?
- Yes I'm ready. I have the shard salad please.(wrong, it should be: I'll have the chef's salad, please. 原因：第一,I'll没听出来不应该；第二，chef没听出来不应该，我记得Philip,Robbie和Malcom去烧烤那一节就出现了这个词)
- I'll have a cheeseburger, meeting wear without onion, and french fries please.(wrong, it should be: I'll have a cheeseburger, medium rare, with raw onion, and french fries, please. 原因：第一，medium rare这个组合应该是美国人吃牛排时的常用语，我不熟悉，这里要注意了. 第二，with raw onion我听成了without onion,我也真够可以的了)
- Anything to drink?
- A dale cole please.(wrong, it should be: A diet cola, please. 原因：没听过diet cola这个词，其实就是健怡可乐，真没想到，我大四出来的健怡可乐，在美国90年代初就有了，真是faint啊!)
- Ginger ale with lots of ice for me, thank you.
- I've got it. Thanks.
- I'm just surprise.(wrong, it should be: Aren't you surprised? 原因：没原因，语感太tmd差了) that the anamal shelter is so careful about finding homes for the anamls?
- No, I'm not.
Ten minutes later ...
- An cheeseburger, medium rare, with onions, french fries, and ginger ale with lots of ice. Salad dressing.
A little later ...
- Hey. I wanna did here my new souds his one dog's grad on front door.(wrong, it should be: Hey, I wanted you to hear my new sound system when the dog scratched on the front door. 原因：无语中) Let's finish eating and then we'll go back to my house. I want you to hear my new tapes. I've got some great new dance music.
Phone rings ...
- Hello, Stewart riserdants.(wrong, it should be: Hello, Stewart residence. 原因：这应该是美国人接电话的常用语了，Hello, Stewart residence. 你好，Stewart家)
- Hello, is Robbie Stewart there?
- This is he, who's this?
- This is Linda Aborn from Animal Shelter.
- It's Linda from anamal shelter. Yes, Linda, Hi.
- We have good news and bad news, Robbie.
- Oh?
- The good news is the Levensons come back(wrong, it should be: come by 原因：其实先都听出来了，太不自信了) to pick up the dog. The bad news is you won't be able to adopt the dog.
- That's OK.
- Come by one day and I look some the other dogs.(wrong, it should be: Come by one day and look at some of the other dogs.原因：没原因) I'm sure there's one for you. Thanks Robbie, and the Levinsons thank you for bringing their dog to us.
- Thanks Linda. Bye.
- The owners claim Gemma?(wrong, it should be: The owners claimed Gemma. 原因：注意一些细节，claim和claimed)
- That's right.
- I'm glad for the dog.
- I guess I am too. She said fi come by,(wrong, it should be: She said if I come by. 原因：if I连在一起读，我还没适应) she'll help me find another dog.
- Come on, let's dance.
