刚有空改完四个孩子的妈妈的第十一次口语作业。她谈了在香港迪士尼带孩子游玩用地图的经历。
清明节回来的过去一周工作，一样的忙，也更有些显得更紧要和紧急，把四个孩子的妈妈的口语作业延后听改了。
今晚专门花时间改她的作业，因为明天就有她的课；下次上课之前她要交作业；我在上新课之前也会改完她的作业。
我说到的承诺我做到；她也从没迟交过作业。
附：我把作业翻译成中文如下：
Moon的口语作业
2024年4月10日
你好，Mark。我是Moon。这是我的家庭作业录音。
我的家庭作业是“描述一次你使用地图的情景”。
我想谈谈2000年暑假我们去香港迪士尼乐园的游玩的经历。
那是一个下雨天。那次旅行并没有给我们带来太好的感觉，因为在迪斯尼乐园我们迷路了，我们无法玩到所有的娱乐项目。
起初我们一起玩，我的女儿们去玩一些令人兴奋的项目。我的小儿子感到害怕，他没有加入他的姐妹们一起玩。
最后，我们决定分成两个小组去玩。我和小儿子是一个组，我的大儿子和女儿与我丈夫是另一个组。
我和丈夫不得不用纸质地图去找项目玩，并约好在某个时间晚些时候在哪里集合。那时，我的孩子们还没有手机，我不得不自己研究地图去找地方。
但你知道，我不是一个很有方向感的人。当我儿子想去“小世界”时，我看了看地图，上面写着我们现在的位置在“喷泉”，离“小世界”太远了，一路上我们有很多有趣的娱乐项目可以玩，所以我们决定稍后去。
沿着这条路走了大约十分钟，然后我们右转，我看到杂货店就在我的右边，我一直看地图，继续前行；我儿子买了一些爆米花吃，然后我们到达了”森林河”。我们在那里又玩了一些娱乐节目。
然后我们继续去“小世界”。在路上，我儿子继续玩了一些其它的游戏。你知道，他对迪斯尼乐园非常好奇。
我同意他玩半个小时。我们必须快点，否则我们没有足够的时间去寻找“小世界”了。
在地图上，看起来似乎很容易，但我就是找不到“小世界”。最后，我们求助于迪士尼乐园的一位工作人员，她告诉我们如何到达那里。她教我如何看地图，并为我们指明了方向。
她告诉我，我走向“小世界”的方向完全错了。
我们向她道谢，然后前往“小世界”。我专注看地图，试图让我们不会走错，最终我们在几个小时后到达了“小世界”。这趟时间花得！
实际上，我们可以乘旅游巴士去“小世界”。我们在“玛丽广场”犯了一个大错误。我们在那里把方向走错了。顺便说一句，乘公共汽车游览是一种很好的感觉。
我儿子非常兴奋，因为他在迪斯尼乐园玩了他想玩的所有游戏，而我则在研究地图如何寻找“小世界“。
无论如何，我应该学会看懂地图。我想在迪斯尼乐园给我儿子一个美好的回忆。我想找到他想去的任何地方。
在香港迪士尼乐园使用地图对我来说是一次难忘的经历。它应该没有那么复杂，我只是没有心情学习它。我会改变主意，学习使用好地图，为下一次做得更好做准备。
Moon’s Speaking Homework
10-04-2024
Hello Mark. I’m Moon. This is my homework recording.
My homework is ‘Describe an occasion when you used a map’.
I’d like to talk my experience on the Summer vacation of the year 2000 when we went to Hong Kong Disneyland.
That was a rainy day. The tour didn't give us a lot of good feeling though, we couldn’t make it playing all the entertainment items due to getting lost the way in the Disneyland.
At first we played together and my daughters went to play some exciting items. My younger son felt scared though and he didn’t join in his sisters.
At last, we decided to play in two teams. My younger son and I were one team, my elder son and daughters were another team with my husband.
My husband and I had to use the paper maps to find the games and decided the place to meet later in a certain time. At that time, my children didn't have cellphones and I had to study the map by myself.
But you know, I was not a person with good sense of direction. When my son wanted to go to the Small World, I looked at the map, it said our current location was at the Fountain place, it’s way too far from the Small World and we had lots of interesting entertainment items to play at along the way, so we decided to go later.
Walked along the road for about ten minutes then we turned right, I saw grocery store was on my right, I kept looking at the map and moving on and my son grabbed some poco and then we reached the Forest River. We played some entertainment items there.
And then we continued to go to the Small World. On the way, my son played some other items. You know he was so much curious about the Disneyland.
I agreed him to play for half an hour. We must hurry up otherwise we didn’t have enough time to find the Small World.
On the map, it seemed very easy but I just couldn’t find the Small World. Finally, we turned to a Disneyland worker and she told us how to get there. She taught me how to study the map and pointed the direction for us.
She told me, I went completely wrong in the direction to the Small World.
We thanked her and left for the Small World. I concentrated on the map to try to keep us on the right way, eventually we reached the Small World after hours. What a time!
We actually could take the tour bus to the Small World. We made a big mistake at Mary Ground. We went wrong in the direction there. By the way, taking bus tour was a good feeling.
My son was very excited because he played all the games in the Disneyland while I studied the map to look for the place.
Anyhow, I was supposed to learn to study the map. I wanted to give my son a good memory in the Disneyland you know. I wanted to be able to locate any place he wanted to go play at.
Using map in HK Disneyland was an unforgettable experience for me. It should not be that complicated, I was just not in the mood for studying it. I will change my mind to learn to study the map and do better for the next time.
