Robbie, this new Walkman is absolutely wonderful.
Robbie������µ������������
Richard and Marilyn bought it for me for my birthday.
����Richard��Marilyn���ҵ��������
They're so thoughtful.
�������ܵ���
You are very lucky, Robbie, to have such a nice family.
Robbie���������ˣ�ӵ��һ��������ܰ�ļҡ�
Is something wrong, Alexandra?
Alexandra������ô�ˣ�
No, nothing.
û�У�ûʲô��
Yes, there is.
�У��������£�
I can tell.
���ܾ��쵽��
What's the matter?
��������ʲô�£�
Come on, you can tell me.
˵�ɣ������ҡ�
What's up?
��ʲô�£�
I don't know.
��Ҳ˵��������
Something's wrong.
�е㲻�Ծ���
OK, let's talk.
�ðɣ����Ǿ���̸̸��
I received a letter from my parents this morning.
�����������յ���ĸһ���š�
Did they write some bad news?
����д��ʲô����Ϣ��
No.
û�С�
Well, then why are you so sad?
�ǣ�����Ϊʲô����ѹ���
I miss them.
���������ǣ�
I miss them very much.
�ҷdz������ǡ�
I'm sorry, Alexandra.
��Ϊ���ѹ���Alexandra��
But I understand.
�����������⡣
The Molinas treat me so nicely,
Molinaһ���˶��Һܺã�
and I love being with your family so much ...
��Ҳ��ϲ�������Ǽ���һ�𣬡���
but when I received the letter
���ǵ����յ��Ƿ���
with photographs of my family, I cried.
��ͬ������Ƭʱ���ҿ��ˡ�
I cried because I miss them all.
�ҿޣ���Ϊ���������ǡ�
You really miss your family, don't you?
��dz�������ļ��ˣ���� �
Yes. I know I must seem silly.
�ǵģ���֪���ҿ���һ���ܿ�Ц��
It's not like I have nobody.
�����߲���û�������ˡ�
I like the Molinas very much,
�Һ�ϲ��Molinaһ���ˣ�
and they're so kind to me.
���Ƕ�����á�
Hey, why don't we go out
�٣����Ǻβ���ȥ
for a cheeseburger and french fries?
��һ����ʿ������ը������
That'll cheer you up.
�����������泩Щ��
And you can use my Walkman.
��������ҵ���������
That's a good idea.
�����⡣
But if we go out,
�������dz�ȥ��
please don't complain
��ɱ��ϱ�Թ
about your math teacher or your math homework.
�����ѧ��ʦ�������ѧ��ҵ��
I want to have fun.
����Ҫ������ֵġ�
So do I.
��Ҳ�롣
I have to turn off the lights,
�ҵùص��ƣ�
or else my father will get really angry.
Ҫ��Ȼ���Ұְֻ��������
He says I never turn them out when I leave.
��˵���뿪ʱ�Ӳ��صơ�
If they come home and they're on ...
Ҫ�����ǻ��������ƿ��š�����
Do you hear something?
������ʲô����
Yes.
�ǵģ�
What was that?
��ʲô�أ�
It sounded like a dog barking.
��������
It sounded like a dog barking right here.
������ֻ����������С�
Yeah.
�ԡ�
A dog!
����
A springer spaniel!
һֻ���ɹ���
Come on in!
������
Make yourself at home.
��Ҫ������
Oh, you poor little thing.
������������
Come here.
������
Come on.
������
Poor baby.
������������
Where did you come from?
�����������
Her name's Gemma,
������Gemma
and she belongs to Mr. and Mrs. Levinson.
��Levinson�ҵĹ���
There's a phone number --
�е绰���롪
five five five ... eight four four eight.
555 ����8448��
Robbie, maybe you should call them
Robbie��Ҳ����Ӧ�ø����Ǵ���绰��
and tell the Levinsons we have their cute little spaniel.
����Levinson�����ǿɰ���С��Ȯ���������
I've always wanted a springer spaniel.
��һֱ��Ҫһֻ���ɹ���
She's so cute.
��ֻ����ɰ���
The number you are calling -- 555-8448 --
���ĵ绰����555��8448
is no longer in service.
�ǿպš�
The number's no longer in service.
������������ǿպš�
Oh, you poor, poor baby.
�ǣ�������С�һ
You've lost your family.
���ҿɹ��ˡ�
We'll find them.
���ǻ��ҵ����ǵġ�
Don't worry, Alexandra.
���ģ�Alexandra��
Don't worry, Alexandra.
���ģ�Alexandra��
We'll find the owner.
���ǻ��ҵ��������˵ġ�
How, Robbie?
��ô�ң�Robbie��
Let me think.
�������롣
Gemma, sit.
Gemma������
Good Gemma.
��Gemma��
Give me your paw.
�ѽ��������
Good Gemma.
��Gemma��
This dog is well trained.
��ֻ���ܹ��ܺõ�ѵ����
She likes you, too.
��Ҳϲ���㡣
So how are we going to find the owners?
��ô���������ȥ�ҹ��������أ�
With a little help from the ASPCA,
��ASPCA
the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
������ֹŰ������Э����æ��
They're the ones.
������û����
We once found a cat.
������һ���ҵ�һֻè��
She was caught in the branches of our tree.
�����Ǽ����ϵ���֦��ס�ˣ�
And Dad called the ASPCA.
�ְִ�绰��ASPCA��
They came and solved the problem.
�������ˣ�Ҳ��������⡣
Robbie, let's call them.
Robbie�����Ǹ����Ǵ�绰��
Let me see -- ASPCA....
�������ơ�ASPCA ����
Here it is.
�����
ASPCA Animal Shelter.
ASPCA������������
555-7700.
555��7700��
Hello, ASPCA.
�ASPCA��
Hello, my name is Robbie Stewart.
ι���ҽ�Robbie Stewart��
I have a lost dog I'd like to bring to you.
��������һֻʧɢ�Ĺ����������������ǡ�
How late are you open?
�������↑��������
We're open till nine P.M.
���ǿ������Ͼŵ㡣
Thank you.
лл��
I'll bring the dog over by nine.
���ھŵ�֮ǰ�ѹ�������
Thanks.
лл��
Bye.
�ټ���
Thanks.
лл��
Good-bye.
�ټ���
They're still open?
�������ڻ����ţ�
They're open until nine o'clock.
���ǿ����ŵ㡣
We have two and a half hours.
����������Сʱ��
Let's take Gemma by there now.
���ǸϽ���Gemma��ȥ��
They'll find the owner.
���ǻ��ҵ����˵ġ�
I hope so.
ϣ����ˡ�
I'm so sad to see this little dog without her family.
������ֻ��û�мң������ѹ���
I'm sure they'll find the owner.
���������ǻ��ҵ��������ˡ�
But if they don't, I'll adopt her.
����Ҳ������Ҿ���������
She's so cute.
���涺��ϲ����
Look at those eyes.
�㿴�����۾���
She's hard to resist.
�������˼��˰���
Don't you just love her?
����˵�㲻ϲ������
I'd like to keep her, too.
��ҲԸ����������
But I'll be going home to Greece
�����Ҿ�Ҫ��ϣ��ȥ�ˣ�
at the end of the semester.
�������ѧ�ڽ�����ʱ��
She just wants love and affection.
����Ҫ���ػ���
Come on, Robbie.
�߰ɣ�Robbie��
Let's get her to the animal shelter,
���ǰ����͵�������������
so they can find her owners quickly.
�������Ǻܿ��ҵ��������ˡ�
Don't worry, Gemma.
���ģ�Gemma��
We'll get you home.
���ǻ�����ؼҵġ�
It's not easy being away from home.
��Ҷ��������ס�
Come on, poochie.
���ɣ�С�һ
Atta girl!
������
Let's go.
�����ߡ�
We're off to the animal shelter.
�������ȥ������������
Your name?
������֣�
Robbie Stewart.
Robbie Stewart��
And this is Alexandra Pappas.
���Alexandra Pappas��
Your name will do, Mr. Stewart.
������־��ˣ�Stewart������
Your address?
���סַ��
46 Linden street, Riverdale.
Riverdale���ֵǽ�46�š�
Where did you find the dog?
����ʲô�ط��ҵ���ֻ���ģ�
She found us.
���ܵ���������ȥ�ġ�
You tried calling the number on the collar?
�Ƿ��չ���������Ȧ�ĵ绰�������绰�ˣ�
Yes, but the number's no longer in service.
��������Ǹ������ǿպš�
And there's no address on the dog tag?
������û�е�ַ��
There's no other information.
û���������ϡ�
No ID number.
û��ʶ�������
Without that, it's hard.
û�о��Ѱ��ˡ�
You will try to find the dog's owner.
���ǻᾡ��ȥ��Ѱ�������˰ɡ�
Oh, we'll try, believe me.
Ŷ�����ǻ���취�������ҡ�
And if you don't?
Ҫ�����Ҳ����أ�
Yes?
ʲô��
If you don't ... can I ... can I adopt the dog?
Ҫ�������Ҳ����������ˣ��ҿɷ����ҿɷ�������ֻ����
Why, yes.
��Ȼ���ԡ�
If the owners don't claim the dog in forty-eight hours,
���������������ʮ��Сʱ�ڲ����죬
then you can apply for adoption.
��Ϳ��������������ˡ�
How do I do that?
�Ҹð�ʲô�����أ�
You really want to?
������Ҫ��������
Yes, I'm serious.
�ǵģ������� �ĵġ�
If no one comes to claim Gemma,
���û����������Gemma��
I'd like to adopt her.
��Ը����������
It's not difficult.
�ⲻ�ѡ�
OK.
�ã�
If you want to adopt an animal,
��������������
first we need to know some references.
���ȣ����ǵ�֪����������Щ��ѯ�ˡ�
References?
��ѯ�ˣ�
People we know?
������ʶ���ˣ�
Friends, teachers....
���ѣ���ʦ����
We need to talk to some people about you.
���ǵ���һЩ�˴����㡣
We want to be sure that you're responsible
����Ҫȷ�����ǿϸ���ģ�
and that you can take good care of an animal.
�����ܹ��ú����϶��
Then you have to fill out this form
Ȼ����Ҫ��д��ݱ���
about your family background.
������ļ�ͥ�����ġ�
Is that it?
��������
No, there's more.
��������
We need to know about your history with animals.
����Ҫ�˽�����ǰ�붯��Ĺ�����
Have you ever owned an animal?
���Ƿ����������
Yes.
�ǵġ�
We had a cat when I was eight years old.
�Ұ���ʱ����һֻè��
I love cats.
��ϲ��è��
Do you have any animals now?
�����ڻ�����ʲô���� ��
Unfortunately, no.
���ź���û�С�
Anything else?
��������
We also like to know
���ǻ���֪��
your reasons for wanting an animal.
��Ҫ�������ԭ��
Just to hold it and cuddle with it.
ֻ�����뱧������§§����
Just to have as a pet.
ֻ��Ҫ���������
I love animals.
��ϲ�����
To have a friend -- a pal.
��Ҫһ�����ѡ�һ����顣
You know, man's best friend is his dog.
��֪���ģ�������õ����Ѿ��ǹ���
And one thing more.
����һ���¡�
If you're under twenty-one years of age ...
����㻹������ʮһ�ꡭ��
That's me.
�Ҿ������������
Then an adult must sign for you.
�Ǿͱ�����һλ������������ǩ�֡�
Uh-oh.
������
No problem.
û���⡣
My parents will think it's a good idea.
�ҵĸ�ĸ��������Ǽ����¡�
I'll be back with them.
�һ����������
If the real owners don't come to claim Gemma ...
�����������û����Gemma����
After forty-eight hours.
��ʮ��Сʱ��
But please call first.
�����������ȴ�绰��
Thanks for your information and for being so helpful.
лл��İ������ṩ��ѶϢ��
It's my pleasure.
�Һ�Ը��Ч�͡�
Nice talking to both of you.
�ܸ�������λ��̸��
Thanks again.
�ٴ�лл�㡣
Bye.
�ټ���
Maybe the real owners will come to claim her.
Ҳ���������˻����������ġ�
Her eyes look so sad.
����Ŀ����ô������
She must really miss them.
���Ǻ������ˡ�
I see you're both animal lovers.
�ҿ��ó����Ƕ���ϲ��������ˡ�
We are.
�����ǡ�
Good-bye, Miss Aborn.
�ټ���AbornС�㡣
We'll call in a couple of days.
���������������绰��
Good-bye, and thanks for bringing Gemma in.
�ټ���лл���ǰ�Gemma������
Bye.
�ټ���
I keep thinking about the dog -- about Gemma,
��һֱ������ֻ����Gemma��
alone in the animal shelter.
�����ڶ����������
I know.
��֪����
But I promise you, Alexandra,
���ǣ������㱣֤��Alexandra��
the dog is just fine.
��ֻ����ܺõġ�
They're very kind to the animals.
�������϶����ϸ�ĵġ�
I know they are.
��֪�����ǻᡣ
I mean about her being alone.
����ָ���ܹµ���
Even if they are kind to Gemma,
��ʹ���Ƕ�Gemma�ܺã�
she's still alone, without her family.
�����ǹµ����ģ��Ҳ����ҡ�
Ready, folks?
���Ե��������λ��
Are you ready, Alexandra?
���������Alexandra��
Yes, I'm ready.
�ǵģ�������ˡ�
I'll have the chef's salad, please.
��Ҫ����ɳ����
I will have a cheeseburger, medium rare,
��Ҫһ����ʿ����������죬
with raw onion, and french fries, please.
������У���ը������
Anything to drink?
Ҫ�ȵ�ʲô��
A diet cola, please.
һ�ݽ������֡�
Ginger ale with lots of ice for me, thank you.
��ζ��ˮ�����Щ���飬лл��
I've got it.
�Ҷ������ˡ�
Thanks.
лл��
Aren't you surprised
�㲻���ú�������
that the animal shelter is so careful
������������Ҫ���С��
about finding homes for the animals?
Ϊ����Ѱ���ҡ�
No, I'm not.
�����Ҳ����á�
And a cheeseburger, medium rare,
һ����ʿ����������죬
with onion and french fries.
������к�ը������
And a ginger ale with lots of ice.
һ�ݽ�ζ��ˮ���Ӻܶ���顣
Salad dressing?
ɳ��Ҫʲô��ζ����
Hey, I wanted you to hear my new sound system
�٣����������������ҵ�������
when the dog scratched on the front door.
���ǹ���ץǰ��ʱ��
Let's finish eating,
���ǸϽ����꣬
and then we'll go back to my house.
Ȼ��ص��Ҽҡ�
I want you to hear my new tapes.
�Ҹ������ҵ���¼������
I've got some great new dance music.
���м����ܺõ���������
Hello.

Hello.

Is Robbie Stewart there?
Robbie Stewart����
This is he.
�Ҿ��ǡ�
Who's this?
����˭��
This is Linda Aborn from the animal shelter.
���Ƕ�����������Linda Aborn��
It's Linda from the animal shelter.
�Ƕ�����������Linda��
Yes, Linda.
�ǵģ�Linda��
Hi.

We have good news and bad news, Robbie.
�Ҹ�������˺���Ϣ�ͻ���Ϣ��Robbie��
Oh?
�ޣ�
The good news is that the Levinsons have come by
����Ϣ��Levinson���������
to pick up the dog.
�ѹ����ȥ�ˡ�
The bad news is, you won't be able to adopt the dog.
����Ϣ�ǣ��㲻��������ֻ���ˡ�
That's OK.
û�й�ϵ��
Come by one day and look at some of the other dogs.
�п���һ�ˣ�������������
I'm sure there's one for you.
�����Ż�����ϲ���ġ�
Thanks, Robbie.
лл��Robbie��
And the Levinsons thank you for bringing their dog to us.
Levinson��Ҳлл������ǵĹ�������
Thanks, Linda.
лл��Linda��
Bye.
�ټ���
The owners claimed Gemma?
���˰ѹ����ȥ�˰ɣ�
That's right.
�Եġ�
I'm glad for the dog.
��������ֻ�����ˡ�
I guess I am, too.
������Ҳһ����
She said if I come by,
��˵�������ȥһ�ˣ�
she'll help me find another dog.
�������������һֻ����
Come on.

Let's dance.
