Laura: So, this is the temple fair, right?
Shirley : Yeah. Would you like to appreciate the Buddhist statues?
Laura: Sure. But let's go there first. People are gathering there. I'm getting curious about it.
Shirley: Oh, it's the “Blessing Wall”. That's a good place to go.
Laura: Why do people put these cards on the wall after they write some stuff on them?
Shirley: The “Blessing Wall” is said to be magical. The thing you write on the cards will come true one day.
Laura: Interesting. I have many blessings to give. So, can you wait for me for a while?
Shirley: Take your time.
(After putting her card on the “Blessing Wall”, Laura comes back to Shirley.)
Laura: Aunt Shirley, what are you doing there?
Shirley: I'm trying to drop a coin into the mouth of the fish statue in the well.
Laura: Why do you do this? Are there any interesting stories behind it?
Shirley: Yeah. People say that, if you drop coins in the mouth of the fish statue, you will be lucky. But it seems that I'm not that lucky.
Laura: Let me have a try.
Shirley: Good luck to you.
(Laura successfully drops a coin into the mouth of the fish statue.)
Laura: Oh, look, I did it. By the way, what do they do with the money collected in this way?
Shirley:For charity. I think it's really a good thing.

羅拉:那么,這就是廟會(huì)了,對(duì)吧?
雪莉:是啊。你想去拜拜佛像嗎?
羅拉:當(dāng)然。不過(guò),我們先去那邊吧。那里圍了好多人。我很好奇那是什么。
雪莉:哦,那是“許愿墻”,是個(gè)很好玩的地方。
羅拉:為什么大家在卡片上寫(xiě)了東西之后,還把它們掛在墻上呢?
雪莉:據(jù)說(shuō)“許愿墻”是很神奇的。在卡片上寫(xiě)的'東西有一天會(huì)成真呢。
羅拉:有趣。我有很多祝福要送出呢。那么,你可以等我一下嗎?
雪莉:你慢慢來(lái)。
(羅拉把卡片掛到“許愿墻”上之后,過(guò)去找雪莉。)
羅拉:雪莉阿姨,你在這兒做什么呢?
雪莉:我在試著把硬幣投進(jìn)井里這個(gè)魚(yú)雕像的嘴巴里。
羅拉:你為什么這么做呢?這里面有什么有趣的故事嗎?
雪莉:對(duì)啊,人們說(shuō),如果你把硬幣投進(jìn)魚(yú)雕像的嘴巴里,你就會(huì)走運(yùn)。但是看來(lái)我不是很幸運(yùn)哦。
羅拉:讓我試試看。
雪莉:祝你好運(yùn)。
(羅拉成功地把一枚硬幣投進(jìn)了魚(yú)雕像的嘴巴里。)
羅拉:哦,快看,我投進(jìn)了。對(duì)了,他們會(huì)拿這些搜集的錢(qián)做什么呢?
雪莉:做慈善活動(dòng)啊。我覺(jué)得這是一件很好的事情啊。
