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.

Since the sea levels have risen, Chantal Chicken used to go sailing just inside the anthill's kitchen, but today, a yellow submarine got stuck in the door. Chantal Chicken has no choice but to wait next to her sailing boat on the makeshift pier which is basically just a small table. While waiting she peels and eats a mandarin.

Beelzebub (b) plans to go to sea on his new sea-going vessel (舶), but in the observatory's kitchen (o2) he is already attacked by a yellow submarine (舟). Because he has no chance against the submarine he can only wave with his white flag (白).

Mnemonic symbol: a steel beam, since 工 looks like the cross section of a steel beam.
Gitta Giraffe (gu) is working a shift in front of the engine ((e)ng1). Her job is to melt dinosaur bones (丨) so that they can be disposed off easily. To melt the bones, she is shorting a huge capacitor (二) with a steel beam (工) which consequently heats up to a bright glow. Using the glowing hot steel beam she can melt the dinosaur bone easily.

The eight most important sparrows (隹) in the world hold a very exclusive gatherig just inside the space station's entrance (Ø2). Joan of Arc (ji) also wants to join, so she pretends to be a sparrow and sits atop the Christmas tree (木) like the other sparrows.
