be given + 名词：被赐予某物。
讲突然落到手里的转机、机会或礼物时。

given 稍重，miracle 打开再落下。
“Make your family proud.”
让家人为你骄傲。
六个词把爱收成任务，整部电影的压力都从这句起。
Make + 某人 + proud。
临行叮嘱、给晚辈打气、把期待说成目标时。

neutral
Make、family、proud 三处实词都砸，your 轻轻带过。

礼物还没来，先把人本身说成奇迹，名字像盖章。
You are a wonder。

wonder 打开，名字三个词均匀落地。
Monologue
One character carrying the scene — shadow the whole passageLong ago, when my three babies had just been born, your Abuelo Pedro and I were forced to flee our home. And though many joined us, hoping to find a new home, we could not escape the dangers and your abuelo was lost. But in our darkest moment, we were given a miracle. The candle became a magical flame that could never go out. And it blessed us with a refuge in which to live. A place of wonder. The miracle grew. And our house, our casita itself came alive to shelter us. When my children came of age, the miracle blessed each with a magic Gift to help us. And when their children came of age... They got magic, too. (CHUCKLING) That's right! And together, our family's Gifts have made our new home a paradise.
