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.

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.

Julian Giant Squid (zhu) is playing cards with Martin Luther King (王) in the space station (Ø3). It's Martin Luther King's turn, and he holds a petal (丶) in his hand high above his head: it's his trump card, and on it depicted is the Lord (主) himself.
Justitia (义) and Maud Younger (y) want to fix the shower in the space station's bathroom (Ø4). Just as Justitia is about to grab the shower head with her pliers (乂) she is blinded by a petal leaf (丶) floating about and instead grabs Maud's head with her pliers. This is Maud's just punishment as she broke the shower head in the first place.
