M: Mario W: Wendy
Mario and Wendy are visiting the local petting zoo on a school field trip.
M: Wow! Look at all the different animals here.
W: I’ve never been this close to farm animals. It’s making me a bit nervous.
M: Don’t worry. These animals are used to interacting with people. Look how gentle they are.
W: I know. I like petting the donkeys and the cows, but the pigs are really stinky.
M: Oh, come on. They don’t smell that bad, and they’re adorable!
W: Do you want to go visit the sheep pen? I want to see the little lambs.
M: Sure. There’s also a big pond with a bunch of ducks that we can feed.

马里奥: 哇!看看这里这么多不同的动物。
温 蒂: 我从来没有这么近距离地接触过农场动物。这让我有点紧张。
马里奥: 别担心。这些动物习惯与人类互动。看看牠们多么温驯。
温 蒂: 我知道。我喜欢摸驴和牛,但猪实在太臭了。
马里奥: 喔,拜托。牠们闻起来没有那么糟,而且牠们很可爱!
温 蒂: 你想去羊圈看看吗?我想看看小羊们。
马里奥: 好啊。这里还有一个大池塘,里面有一群鸭子,我们可以喂牠们。
