Conversation
It's Sunday, the day after the house-warming party. Andreas and Maria are taking Anna, Pedro, Michael and Josh to a farm outside
Filton. When they arrive, the farmer's wife is just entering the hen house. They follow her.

Farmer's wife : Hi, can I help you?

Andreas : Hi, could we have a look around?

Farmer's wife : Of course! Just a minute, I'm just feeding the hens and collecting their eggs. Then I can show you around. While they
are waiting, they look around and see horses running in the fields.

Anna : Do you have any baby horses?

Farmer's wife : A baby horse is called a foal. But no, we don't have any foals yet. But we do have some lambs. They walk across the
farmyard. Two dogs are following them.

Maria : I love dogs! Do you also have any cats?

Farmer's wife : Yes, we do. They are probably playing in the hay right now. The group arrives at the sheep.

Maria : They are so cute! And look, there's a cat hiding behind the fence! How cute!

Farmer's wife : Yes, that one is very shy. Do you want to go to the horses now? I think my husband is feeding them. Maybe you can
help him.They meet the farmer. He gives the kids some carrots so they can feed the horses.

Farmer : You are doing a great job! Why don't you come back and try horseback riding some day! They promise to come back
soon.

Percakapan
Ini hari Minggu, sehari setelah pesta penghangat rumah. Andreas dan Maria membawa Anna, Pedro, Michael dan Josh ke sebuah
peternakan di luar Filton. Saat mereka tiba, istri peternak baru saja memasuki kandang ayam. Mereka mengikutinya.
Istri petani: Hai, ada yang bisa saya bantu?
Andreas: Hai, bolehkah kita melihat-lihat?
Istri petani: Tentu saja! Sebentar, saya hanya memberi makan ayam dan mengumpulkan telurnya. Lalu aku bisa mengajakmu
berkeliling. Sambil menunggu, mereka melihat sekeliling dan melihat kuda-kuda berlarian di ladang.
Anna: Apakah Anda punya bayi kuda?
Istri petani: Bayi kuda disebut anak kuda. Tapi tidak, kami belum punya anak kuda. Tapi kami punya beberapa anak domba.
Mereka berjalan melintasi halaman pertanian. Dua anjing mengikuti mereka.
Maria: Saya suka anjing! Apakah kamu juga punya kucing?
Istri petani: Ya, kami lakukan. Mereka mungkin sedang bermain di atas jerami sekarang. Kelompok itu tiba di domba.
Maria: Mereka sangat lucu! Dan lihat, ada kucing bersembunyi di balik pagar! Lucunya!
Istri petani: Ya, yang itu sangat pemalu. Apakah Anda ingin pergi ke kuda sekarang? Saya pikir suami saya memberi mereka
makan. Mungkin Anda bisa membantunya. Mereka bertemu dengan petani. Dia memberi anak-anak wortel agar mereka bisa
memberi makan kuda.
Petani: Anda melakukan pekerjaan dengan baik! Mengapa Anda tidak kembali dan mencoba menunggang kuda suatu hari nanti!
Mereka berjanji untuk segera kembali.
