Receptionist: Is there anything I can do for you?

Shirley: Yes, my best friend is a little out of shape now. She wants to join a fitness club. And I come over here to ask some information about the courses.

Receptionist: OK, madam. Don't worry. Our club will solve all her problems.

Shirley: This is my first time here. Can you explain your services in detail?

Receptionist: No problem. There are three types of membership here, for a period of onemonth, half year and whole year.

Shirley: That's nice. Is there any discount?

Receptionist: Yes, madam, your friend is very lucky. In this month all the customers will enjoy 20% discount.

Shirley: Along with the quality of your services? Whatever, just kidding. By the way, do you accept the credit card?

Receptionist: Of course, we accept check and credit card.

Shirley: And what about your after-sale service?

Receptionist: You don't have to worry about a thing. If there is any problem, you can call us any time 24 hours.

Shirley: That's exactly what I want. One more thing, can I reschedule the course when I'm not available?

Receptionist: Yes, only within the effective period.

Shirley: Can I quit the course once I've get started?

Receptionist: Of course, as long as you have enough excuses for yourself.

Shirley: Oh, don't worry. We've never done that.

接待員:有什么可以幫忙的嗎？

雪莉:我的好朋友有點發胖了。她想報一個健身班。我來幫她問問相關的課程信息。

接待員:好的，女士。不要擔心。我們俱樂部會解決她所有的困擾。

雪莉:這是我第一次來這。你能夠詳細給我介紹下你們的服務嗎？

接待員:沒問題，這有三種不同的會員卡，包括月卡，半年卡和年卡。

雪莉:好的，有打折嗎？

接待員:嗯，女士，你朋友很幸運。在這個月里所有的顧客都會享受8折。

雪莉:你們的服務也是享受8折？開玩笑啦。順便問下，你們這可以使用信用卡嗎？

接待員:當然，我們這接受支票和信用卡。

雪莉:你們的售后服務怎樣？

接待員:你不用擔心。如果有任何問題，你可以隨時給我打電話。

雪莉:那正是我想要的。還有一件事，如果我沒有時間，我能重新安排我的課程嗎？

接待員:可以的，但只能在有效期內。

雪莉:如果已經開課了，我能夠退課嗎？

接待員:當然，只要你有足夠的理由說服自己。

雪莉:這個不用當心，我們從沒做過此類事情。

Svetlana Khorkina

Khorkina was born on January 19, 1979, in Belgorod. Khorkina is so far in history the only gymnast (male or female) to win three World all-around titles. She placed first all-around at the 1997, 2001 and 2003 Worlds. Khorkina also won the Olympic gold medal on uneven bars in 1996 and 2000.

霍爾金娜

霍爾金娜1979年1月19日出生于別爾哥羅德。至今為止，她是歷史上唯一（不論男性還是女性）贏得三次世界全能頭銜的人。在1997年，2001年和2003年的世界全能比賽中，她取得了第一，并在1996年和2000年奧林匹克運動會高低杠中獲得了金牌。

Bruce Lee

Bruce Lee is perhaps the greatest martial artist of the twentieth century. He was not only an amazing athlete and martial artist, but he possessed genuine superstar charisma and through a handful of films he left behind an indelible impression. His acting, some would say, was negligible, but his athletic skills seemed almost superhuman. Moreover, he developed his martial art style which was more of an idea of being flexible and practical with learning martial arts.

李小龍

李小龍可謂是20世紀最偉大的武術明星。他不僅是出色的運動員和武術藝術家，他還具有真正的巨星號召力，并且通過少數幾部影片留下了他令人難忘的形象。也許有人會說，他的表演是微不足道的，但是他的武術看起來幾乎是超人。而且，他還發展了他自己的武術風格，這種風格更多地體現了在學習武術時要靈活和實用的觀點。
