Y: Hey Patrick, 我今天才发现你很健美,you look fit. 还有个什么词儿?
P: Macho…..
Y: Very Macho.
P: Well that goes without saying, Yang Chen. I’m just awesome.
Y: 我看你像施瓦辛格。
P: You mean I look like an old man? Thanks so much, Yang Chen.
Y: No, 我是说你像健美先生Mr. Fitness。 Hey, seriously, 你是怎么样 keep fit? Kungfu?
P: Actually I lift weights and I do cardiovascular exercises.
Y: OK. 我知道 lift weights,我能举起5磅。Cardiovascular exercises 都包括什么?
P: Cardiovascular – or just cardio – is exercise that helps burn calories by working the heart, such as running, biking, and hiking.
Y: 跑步,骑车,爬山,太多了吧,虽然我想减肥 可是 I really don’t like cardio
P: You look OK. But if you can shed a couple of pounds here and there, that would be perfect.
Y: What did you say?
P: Shed a couple of pounds here and there.
Y: 你说我需要减几磅。How dare you?
