TRANSLATION
At home
Son: Mom, what happened to the desk lamp?
Mom: It was taken away by your little brother. He took it to school. There will be a show in his class, and they need a desk lamp on the stage.
Son: Do they put a real desk lamp on the stage?
Mom: Right. There is a table on the stage with a desk lamp on it and a window next to it. And there is a plant on the windowsill. It's a balcony outside the window.
Son: What show do they put on?
Mom: I forgot the name of the show.
Son: What does my little brother play?
Mom: He plays a big tree.
Son: That's pathetic! He doesn't even have one line.
Mom: Luckily, he likes playing that tree. It's good to play a tree. Your Dad also had played a tree when he was little.
Son: I only knew that my Dad liked to play billiards when he was little, never thought that he had played a tree before. It seems that I am good at acting in our family.
Mom: Yes! You are the best at acting in our family!
