Clerk: Welcome, young man. No offence, but I haven’t seen you here before.

Daniel: Of course, this is my first time here. My Mom has a membership here. Here is the card.

Clerk: Okay then. You are the younger customer here ever.

Daniel: It’s not so wise that you do not explore the children’s market.

Clerk: It’s the marketing’s fault, I suppose.What do you want to do?

Daniel: Well, I want to become just like Bruce Lee. What should I do?

Clerk: That’s a long way to go, I’m afraid. First of all, you gotta grow up.

Daniel: I am still young. And I’m growing every minute.

Clerk: Sure. Then what about trying the treadmill or the skipping rope.

Daniel: I love running. Anything else?

Clerk: Please change your clothes first!

Daniel: I’m perfect with my clothes. And I do not have anything else with me.

Clerk: Sorry, but no jeans here.

Daniel: Oh, that’s the only place where jeans are not popular. I’d better just go home.

听看学

职员：欢迎光临，年轻人。没有冒犯的意思，但是我好像以前没有见过你。

丹尼尔：当然了，这是我第一次来。我妈妈是这里的会员。这是她的会员卡。

职员：那好吧。你是我们最年轻的顾客。

丹尼尔：你们不开发儿童市场，这样做非常不明智。

职员：我想这应该是市场部的错误。你想做点什么(运动)呢?

丹尼尔：嗯，我想成为李小龙，我该怎么做呢?

职员：恐怕那有一段很长的路哦!首先，你得先长大。

丹尼尔：我还年轻。而且我每一分钟都在长啊!

职员：当然。那么要不要试试跑步机或者是跳绳?

丹尼尔：我喜欢跑步。还有别的吗?

职员：请先换衣服吧!

丹尼尔：我穿这个就可以了。而且我身边也没有带别的衣服。

职员：对不起，但是这里不允许穿牛仔裤(运动)。

丹尼尔：哦，这是唯一一个不流行牛仔裤的地方!我最好还是回家算了。
