イギリスの空港で、ロキシーを祖父母が待っています。
Dear, do you think Roxy will be hungry after her long flight?
I’m sure she’ll be famished. Let’s go to a nearby restaurant.
There’s a new Italian place that’s very popular among university students.
Let’s ask Roxy first, shall we?
There she is, among the crowds coming through the gate.
Oh, did she change her hairstyle?
I think she did. She looks more like a lady now.
Yes, our granddaughter is becoming a confident young woman.
アンドロイドのジーニーがスタイン博士と話をしています。
Oh, Jeannie, where have you been?
Don’t worry, Dr. Frank N. Stein. I’m not your little android girl anymore.
I am worried, Jeannie. Have you been with Frankie?
Yes, we often go jogging together before breakfast.
Do you androids eat breakfast?
We like to behave like regular people. Anyway, what about Frankie? He’s like your son too.
I know that. But I made you before I made him.
So, I’m special?
Don’t tell Frankie, OK?
タエコは、同僚のジョナスに頼み事があるようです。
Hi, Jonas. Can I ask you a favor?
Sure, Taeko. What’s up?
I’m going on a business trip to Europe for a few weeks. Could you look after my plant?
Um, I can, but I’m not good with plants. Yayoi asked me once, but the plant died.
Oh no! Didn’t you water it?
I kind of forgot.
Well, my plant doesn’t need much water. It can pretty much look after itself.
OK, I’ll be more careful this time.
ホストマザーのユウコと留学生トーマスが、サイクリングをしています。
Do you remember this park, Thomas? We walked around here last year.
Of course. It’s beautiful. And the weather today is perfect for cycling along the river.
Absolutely. By the way, I hear there’s a new Big West Coffee somewhere along here.
Let’s go. I’d love a large Hiroto’s iced cafe latte right now.
Me too. I’m really thirsty.
Oh, look. I can see the sign just up ahead.
Great. Come on, I’ll race you there!

①表現例
How come you’re so fit?
I go to the gym at least twice a week.
It’s a bit tough, especially after work. But, “No pain, no gain,” right?
②表現例
Have you found any good applicants?
Yes, I think so. It was very difficult to choose among all the applicants, but how about these three?
They are all well-qualified and have a great work history too. Let’s set up an interview with them.
