M: Mandy C: Carl
Carl is at a toy store with Mandy, an exchange student from abroad.
M: Wow! There are so many cool toys here.
C: Yeah, I used to get toys from this store when I was little. My favorite was the slingshot.
M: Sounds like you were a little troublemaker. I really like the marbles and the spinning tops.
C: Are there stores like this in your country?
M: Of course! My friends and I had yo-yos just like this one.
C: Cool. I was never good at those. Yo-yos definitely take some skill and practice to master.

曼 蒂： 聽起來你小時候是個小麻煩。我很喜歡彈珠和陀螺。
卡 爾： 妳們國家有像這樣的商店嗎？
曼 蒂： 當然有啊！我和朋友們都有像這樣的溜溜球。
