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 1 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 2 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 3 into dogs, it is said that humans and wolves worked together hunting game. The wolves would track 4 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.
