苏南：大龙，谢谢你帮我搬家。

大龙：别客气。哎呀，饿死了，我们吃饭吧。

苏南：我也又累又饿，我们点外卖吧！

大龙：你想吃什么？米饭还是面条？

苏南：米饭或者面条都行。你点吧！

大龙：我上次吃了一家面条，很不错。刚才我看马路对面也有一家分店，非常近，应该很快就能送来。你想不想试试？

苏南：那你点，我微信给你转账。

大龙：不用，我请你。我打开“饿了么”看看。

苏南：你喜欢用“饿了么”？哈哈，我更喜欢用“美团”。

大龙：我两个都用。最近因为“饿了么”有红包，所以我经常用它。哎，为什么它说不能送？

苏南：我看看。哎呀，因为你没有换地址，这个分店送不到你家那儿，你把地址换成我家的。

大龙：难怪呢。现在好了，它说20分钟左右送到，还不要配送费。

苏南：对了，你有没有备注说不要放蒜？我不爱吃蒜。

大龙：我记得你不爱吃，所以写了不要葱也不要蒜。你要什么辣？这里有不辣、微辣、中辣、特辣。

苏南：我要微辣。

大龙：好，下单了。对了，我还有几家好吃的餐厅，要不要发给你？

苏南：好啊，谢谢！

用中文如何用中文点外卖

Hi and welcome back to Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH by Robert C. O'Brien.
Illustrations by Justin Todd. Read by me, Teacher Alyse.

📖 Chapter 14: The Marketplace

Before I begin reading, here’s a quick summary of the chapter:

Mrs. Frisby is shocked to learn that her late husband, Jonathan, was part of the rats’ secret past. Nicodemus explains that Jonathan had a good reason for keeping the truth from her, but he never had the chance to share it before he passed. As they talk, Nicodemus suggests moving to a quieter location so he can tell her the full story of the rats’ origins.
He leads Mrs. Frisby to his office, a comfortable and well-furnished space, where she notices a radio playing music. This sparks a memory of something Jonathan once mentioned, and she is fascinated by the sound. Nicodemus then begins to recount the history of the rats, starting at a marketplace near a big city where he and many other rats once lived.
The marketplace provided plenty of food, making life easy for the rats. Nicodemus and his friends, including his intelligent companion Jenner, often explored the area, gathering food and playing. One evening, while searching for food, Nicodemus and the other rats were suddenly caught in a trap. Bright lights flashed, and men in white uniforms appeared, capturing many of them with nets. Nicodemus himself was ensnared, signaling the beginning of a life-changing event for the captured rats.

Эпизод 14. О котах и кошках. 10 интересных фактов

La leyenda de la Isla de las Muñecas está situada en los canales de Xochimilco, se cuentan historias de muñecas poseídas que cuelgan de los árboles.
Pon atención al sonido de la X en el nombre de Xochimilco. En este caso suena como "sh" por ser una palabra proveniente de las lenguas precolombinas, es decir conservaron su pronunciación, a diferencia de "México" que suena como "j" o del uso más general que es el sonido de "ks" como "existe".
Puedes encontrar estas tres palabras en la primera frase de la leyenda. Trata de encontrar las demás.
