"Tarzan," queried Jane, "Why do you have to bellow so when you swing through the
jungle?"
"I'm under contract darling," replied the lord of the jungle. "This pharmaceutical company make sore throat lozenges."
Tips:
-->under contract = you have signed a contract and will be paid for your services
-->lozenge:a small sweet candy, often in a lozenge shape, especially one that contains medicine and that you dissolve in your mouth
Basic version:
Tarzan is a character from books and films who lives in the jungle with the animals and his wife Jane.
One day Jane asked him why, when he moved through the trees, swinging from branch to branch, he shouted so loudly.
He replied that a pharmaceutical company paid him to do so. The company makes pills for people who have sore throats and cannot speak loudly. Tarzan sucks the pills and the company films him and his loud shouts. They use the film for publicity to prove that their pills are effective.
