P: Hey, Yang Chen, why are listening to this music. It reminds me of pirate movies like ‘Pirates of the Caribbean.’
Y: Because I like sword fighting. Do you like it?
P: I don’t have anything against swords, but it just seems a bit strange. Why do you ask?
Y: 因为我想学击剑！
P: Fencing is the official name for competitive and Olympic sword fighting.
But isn’t fencing kind of dangerous? And what ever happened to you being a professional weightlifter?
Y: 我什么时候说过我要练举重吗？
P: Just a few days ago.
Y: Anyway. We are going to be very careful and wear protective gear ，防护服， 从头到脚都要包起来。
P: I feel a little better knowing we are wearing masks, gloves and other protective gear that covers us from head to toe.
Y:这是你的剑， Patrick.
P: This is the foil.
Y:这叫钝头剑，是用来练习的。
P: This foil looks like a real sword, but it doesn’t have a sharp end.
Y: 如果我用钝头剑foil击中你，你不会受伤！
P: Ouch!
Y: Don’t be a wimp.
P: I’m not a wimp. Yang Chen.
Y: Yes, you are. You are a wimp and you are a cry baby.
P: Hey look, it just surprised me, that’s all.
Now that we have our protective gear on and our foils,
Y: En garde!
P: I’m not ready. I don’t even know how to fence!
Y: I don’t either.
P: Then why are we here?
Y: Because I think fencing is cool. 你不觉得击剑很帅吗？
P: That ‘s not a good reason to go into fencing , Yang Chen.
Y: But I want to learn it, 我要拯救世界！
P: Yeah. Save the world. Be a pirate.
