(Zac and Jamie are volunteering at a senior center.)
Jamie: Hi, Mr. Barr. Zac and I had a good time listening to your war stories last week. Could you tell us more?
Mr. Barr: With pleasure. See my right leg? It was injured during an attack one night. I also lost three toes on my left foot that night.
Zac: How did you get hurt?
Mr. Barr: A plane dropped a bomb, and it landed close by. It blew up, and I almost died.
Jamie: Wow! Who saved you?
Mr. Barr: A puppy. It saw me and began to bark. The sound led other soldiers to me.
Zac: You were saved by a dog!
Mr. Barr: The story was even reported in a newspaper.
Jamie: What a great story!
(The next day, Zac and Jamie couldn't find Mr. Barr at the center.)
Jamie: Excuse me, Ms. Lee. Where's Mr. Barr?
Ms. Lee: He's in the hospital. He was hit by a car yesterday.
Jamie: How did it happen?
Ms. Lee: Mr. Barr suddenly walked into traffic and stood in the middle of the road. The driver couldn't stop the car in time.
Zac: Why did he do that?
Ms. Lee: I guess he forgot the way to our center and got scared. He has problems remembering things, so he gets lost often.
Zac: I'm worried about him. Maybe he should carry a note with the center's address in his pocket.
Ms. Lee: Good idea. That way, people can help him find his way home.
Jamie: I pray it won't happen again.
（柴克和潔米在樂齡中心當志工。）
潔米：嗨，巴爾先生。上週我和柴克很高興聽了你的戰爭故事。你可以跟我們多講一些嗎？
巴爾先生：樂意至極。你們有看到我的右腿嗎？這是在一次夜襲中受傷的。那天晚上我也同時失去我左腳的三根腳趾頭。
柴克：你怎麼受傷的？
巴爾先生：一架飛機投下一枚炸彈，而這枚炸彈降落在我附近。它爆炸了，我差點死掉。
潔米：哇!那是誰救了你？
巴爾先生：一隻小狗。牠看到了我然後開始吠叫。牠的聲音引來其他的士兵到我這裡。
柴克：你被一隻狗拯救了!
巴爾先生：這故事甚至被報導在報紙上。
潔米：多麼棒的故事!
（隔天，柴克和潔米在樂齡中心找不到巴爾先生。）
潔米：不好意思，李小姐。請問巴爾先生在哪裡？
李小姐：他在醫院。昨天他被一輛車撞到。
潔米：怎麼會發生這樣的事呢？
李小姐：巴爾先生突然走進車潮裡，並站在路中央。駕駛無法及時停車。
柴克：他怎麼會那麼做？
李小姐：我猜他忘記到我們中心的路，然後感到害怕。他對於記住事情有困難，所以他常常迷路。
柴克：我很擔心他。或許他應該在口袋裡帶一張有中心地址的紙條。
李小姐：好主意。如此一來，人們可以幫他找到回家的路。
潔米：我祈禱這不會再發生。
