We can’t see them at this time back home. H: Really? What bugs can you see then? S: We can see ants, bees, and locusts. They are a kind of grasshopper. H: Are they bigger or smaller than crickets? S: They are bigger, and they can fly. H: Hey, do you have fireflies and cicadas in your home country? S: Sure. We see them in the summer, but we only see cicadas once every 13 years. H: Wow! That’s so different. We see cicadas here every year. Part A 賽門：妳看這些蜻蜓，這個時期在我的家鄉看不到蜻蜓。 海蒂：真的嗎？那你會看到哪些蟲？ 賽門：我們會看到螞蟻、蜜蜂和蝗蟲，蝗蟲是蚱蜢的一種。 海蒂：牠們比蟋蟀大還是小？ 賽門：牠們比較大，而且還會飛。 海蒂：嘿，你的家鄉有螢火蟲和蟬嗎？ 賽門：當然有，我們在夏天會看到那些蟲，不過每十三年才會看到一次蟬。 海蒂：哇！那還真不一樣，我們這裡每年都看得到蟬。 Part B Heidi and Simon are in her kitchen. 海蒂和賽門在海蒂家的廚房裡。 (Heidi = H ; Simon = S) H: Do you smell that smell? It’s really bad. S: Yes. It smells like oil, and it’s coming from around the sink. H: It can’t be oil because I don’t throw it out in the sink. S: OK. Can I take a look under the sink? H: Sure, but be careful. I have many things under there. S: Uh-oh! I see lots of bug droppings, and they’re not from beetles or ladybugs. H: Oh, no! Are they from spiders? I don’t like spiders. S: No. It’s worse. The droppings are from cockroaches. Part B 海蒂：你有聞到那個味道嗎？好臭。 賽門：有，聞起來像是油耗味，而且是從流理台周圍散發出來的。 海蒂：不可能是油，因為我不會把油倒進流理台。 賽門：了解，我可以看一下流理台下方嗎？ 海蒂：當然可以，不過要小心，我在那下面放了很多東西。 賽門：哎呀！我看見很多蟲的排泄物，不是甲蟲或瓢蟲的。 海蒂：喔，不！是蜘蛛的嗎？我不喜歡蜘蛛。 賽門：不是，更糟，這些是蟑螂的排泄物。 Part C Simon and Heidi just entered his place. 賽門和海蒂剛踏進賽門的家。 (Simon = S ; Heidi = H) S: Ouch! Something bit me on my back. H: My guess is a mosquito. Do you want me to put some cream on it? S: Yes, please. It’s starting to get really itchy. H: Hey, something fell out when you pulled up your shirt. S: Oh, I see it. That’s not a mosquito. That’s a spider. H: That’s not good. What do I do for a spider bite? S: First, wash it with warm soapy water. Then, put ice on it. H: OK, I’ll go and get those things ready. Part C 賽門：唉喲！有東西咬我的背。 海蒂：我猜是蚊子，要我幫你塗一點藥膏嗎？ 賽門：好，謝謝，傷口開始變得很癢了。 海蒂：嘿，你把上衣拉高的時候，有東西掉出來了。 賽門：噢，我看到了，那不是蚊子，是一隻蜘蛛。 海蒂：那可糟糕了，蜘蛛咬傷要怎麼處理？ 賽門：首先，用溫熱的肥皂水清洗傷口，接著在上面冰敷。 海蒂：好，我去準備那些東西。
