(Shirley and Benjamin are jogging)

Shirley: Come on, you are left behind!

Benjamin: Wow, I can't catch my breath. You are running too fast, honey.

Shirley: You just need more exercise.

Benjamin: Yes, but you need to slow down. This is jogging, not racing!

Shirley: I don't care. I want to burn up my fat.

Benjamin: But running so fast is not good for people over forties.

Shirley: Why?

Benjamin: We are not as athletic as we were when young. Mild exercise is more suitable for us.

Shirley: But I want to burn up more calories!

Benjamin: In fact, in order to burn up your fat, you must take it slowly for a longer time.

Shirley: Really? I will slow down then.

Benjamin: That's right, honey. Oh, you don't need to be as slow as a tortoise.

Shirley: I don't care.

雪莉：你得多运动了。

本杰明：是啊，但是你也得跑慢点 啊。这是慢跑，不是赛跑！
