Daniel: Daddy, how are you going to spend your weekends?

Dad: I need to finish my research paper.

Daniel: Could you go with me to climb Xiang Shan?

Dad: Honey, I am sorry I have no time.

Daniel: Oh, Daddy, you should do more exercise. You are getting a little heavy.

Dad: I am afraid you are right. Recently, even going upstairs makes me out of breath.

Daniel: Then go climbing with me, Daddy. Mountain climbing can build your muscles like Popeyes.

Dad: Terrific! It is also a good exercise to keep me fit.

Daniel: I give you my word, you must feel refreshed after mountain climbing.

Dad: OK, I'll go.

Daniel: That's a deal.

Dad: Sure.

丹尼爾：爸爸，你準備怎么過周末呢？

爸爸：我需要完成我的科研論文。

丹尼爾：能陪我去爬香山嗎？

爸爸：寶貝，真抱歉，我沒有時間。

丹尼爾：哦，爸爸，你應該多做做運動。你現在有些發胖了呢。

爸爸：我想你說得對。最近，爬樓都會讓我上氣不接下氣的。

丹尼爾：爸爸,那就和我一起去爬山嘛。爬山會使你的肌肉像大力水手一樣（強健）。

爸爸：太棒了！爬山也是一種使我保持健康的運動。

丹尼爾：我向你保證，爬完山后，你一定會覺得神清氣爽。

爸爸：好的，我和你一起去。

丹尼爾：一言為定。

爸爸：沒問題。

Daniel: Daddy is a very busy man and most of the time he has little time for any physical exercises. Recently, even going upstairs makes him out of breath. So the other day I asked him to go climbing with me. Dad knew that mountain climbing was a good exercise to keep him fit. So he said “yes”.
