口
:
Mnemonic symbol: a dart board, because you always try to hit the center.
Julian Giant Squid (zhu-) is throwing dinosaur bones (丨) as darts on a dart board in front of the engine ((e)ng1). To make it a bit more difficult he's throwing mandarins (口) into the air as well and skewers them up right in the center (中 is a mandarin skewered on a dinosaur bone) in mid flight with the dinosaur bones. He's still able to consistently hit the center (中) of the dart board.

玉
:
Mnemonic symbol: a nation's flag. Let's say the Chinese flag.
In the observatory's kitchen (o2) Gitta Giraffe (gu) is practising her ballet performance. She got a whole crate (囗) full of jade bracelets (玉) and flags (国) and fixed one flag to each jade bracelet. This makes a perfect combination for throwing the ring with the flag waving behind it and catching the ring again after a few pirouettes.
Mnemonic symbol: a balloon. The Queen of Hearts is disappointed by her balloons. She expected them to float upwards, but in the space station's bathroom, They float randomly in all directions.

Mnemonic symbol: I already used an ordinary elephant for 勹, which is fine, because 勹 appears many times and 象 only a few times. Thus to represent 象 I'll use a locomotive from 1844's Austria, which was called "KFNB Elephant".

Zeus (ju) got a job at the post office (局) just inside the space station's entrance (Ø2) and already at his first day a ghost (尸) approaches him. Zeus feels extremely threatened and tries to kill the ghost with a sickle (乛), but the sickle just cuts through the ghost. As the ghost is finally right in front of Zeus it produces a mandarin (口) which it wants sent to earth.
