Jim: I didn't have fun surfing, Jane. I hope you're not disappointed.
Jane: I understand. It was 1)probably because you're not good at surfing. Oh, sorry to be mean.
Jim: That's OK. I enjoy 2)water-skiing more. I had lots of fun water-skiing.
Jane: Really? It's not easy, though.
Jim: True. And I'm not good at water-skiing at all. I can't even stand up on the 3)skis.
Jane: What about tennis? Are you good at playing tennis?
Jim: I tried learning tennis, but my arm got so sore.
Jane: What about soccer? Do you enjoy playing soccer?
Jim: I do, but running isn't my best 4)talent. I'm too slow. And I'm not good at 5)handling the ball.
Jane: Hmmm. Then what sport are you good at?
吉姆：珍，我覺得衝浪不好玩。我希望妳不會失望。
珍：我明白。可能是因為你不是很會衝浪。哦，很抱歉我比較不客氣。
吉姆：沒關係。我比較喜歡滑水。我滑水滑時玩的很開心。
珍：真的嗎？可是那不容易。
吉姆：那倒是。而且我完全談不上擅長滑水。我甚至沒辦法站在滑水橇上。
珍：那網球呢？你擅長打網球嗎？
吉姆：我以前嘗試過學打網球，但是我的手臂好痠哦。
珍:足球呢?你喜歡踢足球嗎?
