A: Amber D: Dave
Amber runs into her friend Dave shortly after the Lunar New Year.
A: Well, you look a bit different from the last time I saw you. Have you gained any weight?
D: I was hoping nobody would notice.
A: Oh, I didn’t mean to be rude.
D: No worries, it’s fine. I definitely ate too much during the holidays.
A: Yeah, overeating during the holidays is hard to avoid.
D: Tell me about it! There are too many delicious dishes on offer.
A: Are you interested in shedding some weight?
D: I sure am. Do you have any suggestions?

安 柏： 嗯，你看起来和我上次见到你时有点不一样。你体重增加了吗？
戴 夫： 我本来希望没人会注意到。
安 柏： 哦，我不是故意无礼的。
戴 夫： 没关系，没事。这个假期我肯定吃太多了。
安 柏： 是啊，在假期暴饮暴食是很难避免的。
戴 夫： 可不是吗！桌上有太多美味的菜肴了。
安 柏： 那你有兴趣减重吗？
戴 夫： 我当然有。妳有什么建议吗？
安 柏： 我一直都有去附近的健身房。他们有很棒的设备和课程。
