A Mandarin dialogue between a mother and son at the zoo (动物园).
妈妈：儿子，快看，长颈鹿。
儿子：哇，它好高啊。
它有一个长长的脖子和黄色的毛。
妈妈：是的，所以它才叫长颈鹿啊。
儿子：它还有四条长长的腿，而且还很细。
妈妈：快看，它的尾巴。
儿子：好可爱啊，它的尾巴摇来摇去的，像一个小闹钟的指针。
妈妈：哈哈，你的想象力可真丰富。
儿子：妈妈，我们再去看其他动物吧。

Mother：Son, look, a giraffe! Son：Oh, it’s so tall. It has a long long neck and yellow hair. Mother：Yes. That’s why it is called a “long-necked-deer”. Son：It has 4 long long legs, they are very thin. Mother：Quick, look. It’s tail. Son：So cute, it’s tail swishes to and fro. Like a hand on an alarm clock. Mother：Haha, you have a rich imagination! Son：Mother, let’s go look at the other animals.
