英语PK台 第96期:善待动物(1)(在线收听) |
Dialog JJ:Hey, Xiao Gao. What did you do this weekend?
XG:I bought some clothes for some monkeys.
JJ:For some what?! Did I just hear you say… you bought some clothes for some monkeys? Like… real monkeys?
XG:That’s right! I have been watching some videos online about a man named Jamil who lives in Malaysia. ————————————————And he even rescues monkeys. In fact, he has two pigtail macaques and he treats them like his children.
JJ:So you bought clothes for them? I didn’t know monkeys wear clothes.
XG:Well, they don’t, ————————————— I hope that the two monkeys will like the clothes I bought for them and I hope to see their new outfits online soon.
JJ:Wow, I guess man and animal have a special connection.
XG:Yeah, he often takes his monkeys out for lunch and dinner. They are so cute!
JJ:Hey, remember 小黄豆 and 美美? I really miss them!
XG:Yeah. You were a great mother to them. I’m sure they are grateful to have been rescued by you.
JJ:Well, they also brought joy to my life. You know what they say: Dog is man’s best friend.
XG:Hey, where did that saying come from?
JJ:Well, before wolves evolved into dogs, it is said that humans and wolves worked together hunting game. The wolves would track the pray, and the humans would kill it. The humans would leave some meat for the wolves. This is how man and wolf’s relationship is said to have formed.
