STEVE: I'm going over to the gym. I want to do some running. JOSEPH: Why don't you run outside? STEVE: Are you kidding? Do you know how cold it is today? JOSEPH: Yeah, I suppose. I guess it isn't healthy to run in this weather. STEVE: No, it's not. Not at all. I'd probably freeze my lungs. JOSEPH: Wait for me a minute. I'll go over to the gym too. STEVE: You? JOSEPH: Yes, why not? Just let me get my gym clothes together. STEVE: I didn't know you could exercise. JOSEPH: What do you mean by that? Everyone can exercise! STEVE: Yeah, I know. But you? I always thought you were only good at lifting beer bottles to your mouth. JOSEPH: No, not at all. I was on the swimming team in high school. And I'd like to do some weight training. They have decent equipment at that gym. STEVE: You're going to lift weights? Hah! JOSEPH: Are you laughing at me? STEVE: I'm sorry. I just can't imagine you lifting weights. JOSEPH: Maybe not. But I want to start. I need to get in shape. I feel these past couple months that my energy is low. STEVE: It's true. If a person doesn't exercise, they get sluggish. That's why I keep running. Even in the winter. JOSEPH: So I need to do something too. STEVE: But lifting weights isn't the best thing. You should do some kind of aerobic exercise. JOSEPH: I know. But I want to start today with a little weight lifting. Then I'm going to buy a new swimming suit and goggles, and every other day I'm going to go swim laps in the pool. How does that sound? STEVE: It sounds like a good plan to me. I'm still... I mean... JOSEPH: What? STEVE: I'm still just surprised you really want to do it. It doesn't seem to go with your character. JOSEPH: Well, if that's true, then maybe I need to change my character, don't I? I don't want to become a fat slob. 史堤夫:我要去健身中心,我想要跑步。 乔瑟夫:你为什么不在户外跑? 史堤夫:你开玩笑吧?你知道今天有多冷吗? 乔瑟夫:对,我相信。我认为在这种天气下跑步也不健康。 史堤夫:不,一点也不健康。一点也不。我的肺很可能都会结冻。 乔瑟夫:等我一下。我跟你一起去健身中心。 史堤夫:你? 乔瑟夫:对,为什么不?让我把运动服带上。 史堤夫:我并不知道你做运动。 乔瑟夫:你是什么意思?每个人都可以运动啊! 史堤夫:对呀,我知道。但是你? 我一直认为你只会把啤酒瓶放进你的嘴巴。 乔瑟夫:不,才没有。我在高中的时候参加过游泳队。 我也喜欢做一些举重运动。健身中心有很好的设备。 史堤夫:你要举重?哈! 乔瑟夫:你在笑我吗? 史堤夫:我很抱歉,我只是无法想象你举重。 乔瑟夫:或许没有,但我想要开始。我需要保持住身材。 我感到这过去的几个月我的体能差了许多。 史堤夫:是真的。如果一个人不运动,他们会变得很懒。 那就是为什么我坚持跑步,甚至在冬天也是这样。 乔瑟夫:所以我也需要做点什么。 史堤夫:但举重并不是最好的。 你可以做一些健身操。 乔瑟夫:我知道。但我今天想开始做一点举重。 然后我要去买一件新的泳衣及一副蛙镜 每隔一天我就可以在泳池游来游去了。听起来不错吧? 史堤夫:听起来真是一个很好的计划。我还是……我的意思是…… 乔瑟夫:怎么了啊? 史堤夫:我还是很惊讶你真的要这样做。 这真的跟你的个性不合。 乔瑟夫:嗯,如果那是真的,或许我是要改变一下我的个性,对吗? 我可不想变成一个痴肥。 |
