John is walking down a street when he hears something go KLONK. He looks down and sees a round iron cover, with ACE RAGON LTD written on it. He stamps on it and hears a voice from underground.
Ace: (Grumpily) who is it?
John: I want to know what Ltd means.
Ace: It means I can't do everything. I can only do some things.
John: What can you do?
Ace: I can make fire come out of my nose and mouth. I can fly. I can spin gold into straw if you have any gold.
John: I don't have any gold.
Ace: Then it doesn't matter. Do you want to go flying with me?
John: (Excitedly) Yes I do.
女儿：I think I know what PLAYSCRIPT is. It is the lines you speak when you are on the stage.
我：Right. Playscript is the text of a play. Have you noticed the brackets ( ) in it?
女儿：Yes.
我：What is in the brackets? Are these the words characters say?
女儿：No. They aren't. They seem like the words to describe people's expressions.
我：Yes. We call it Stage direction. Now have a good look at your playscript. What's up everytime when a new person speaking？
女儿：It goes down a line.
我：Exactly. It starts a new line. Do you remember a special mark after a person's name?What is it called?
女儿：Er...I forgot.
我：It is called Colon :. Are we suppose to use speech marks" " in the playscript?
女儿：No. Because you've already known who is saying.
我：I am now asking you to write your own playscript to tell us what's gonna happen next in the story.
女儿：Easy peasy.
