Daniel: Hello, is it necessary to do warm-up exercise? I can't wait to dive into the water.
Receptionist: I'm sorry. Every customer coming here must do the warm-up exercise before getting down to swimming. That's out regulation.
Daniel: Yeah, I see. You are just doing your job. But I wanna know what the advantages it has.
Receptionist: OK, lovely boy. Try to be patient. Do you know the danger of swimming without warm-up?
Daniel: As far as I know, people will be weak if they swim too long.
Receptionist: That's right. But the most dangerous thing is that their legs may spasm out of control when swimming.
Daniel: Is it very dangerous? I'm a little scared. Do you offer the lifebuoy for us?
Receptionist: Yes, besides that, we also provide our customers with goggles, swimming suit and something like that.
Daniel: Do you have the workers to save me if anything should happen?
Receptionist: Of course, all the workers here are able to swim, and they will come to your aid quickly. By the way, is that your Mom?
(Shirley comes over here.)
Receptionist: Hello, madam! Please take care of your kid. Don't let him play around the deep-water area.
Shirley: OK, I bear it on my mind. He is just naughty. Thank you! How can I tell the abyssal zone from the shoal waters?
Receptionist: Well, there are signs besides the swimming pool. Our workers will lead you there.
Shirley: That's good. We'll be more careful when we are there.
Receptionist: And this is your swimming caps and the yellow one is for your son. By wearing this, we can identify kids.
Shirley: Wow, Daniel, you'll be looking very good in that cap. Come here to put it on!

丹尼爾: 你好，必須做熱身運動嗎？我想立馬下水。
服務員: 對不起，任何一位到我們這來的顧客在下水游泳之前必須要做熱身運動。這是我們的規定。
丹尼爾: 嗯，我知道。你只是在履行你的職責。但是我想知道它的益處。
服務員: 好的，可愛的小傢伙。試着有耐心點。你知道不做熱身運動就下水的危險性嗎？
丹尼爾: 據我所知，如果游泳太久人會很虛弱。
服務員: 這是對的，但是最危險的是游泳時腿會因抽筋失去控制。
丹尼爾: 那很危險嗎？我有點怕了，你們提供救生圈嗎？
服務員: 是的，除此之外，我們給顧客提供泳鏡，泳衣等用品。
丹尼爾: 如果發生什麼情況，你們會有工作人員來救我嗎？
服務生: 當然，這兒所有的工作人員都會游泳，他們會很快來救你的。順便問下，那是你媽媽嗎？
（雪莉走了過來。）
服務員: 您好，女士！請您照顧好你的小孩。不要讓他在深水區域玩耍。
雪莉: 好的，我記住了。他是很淘氣。謝謝你！我怎麼區分深水區和淺水區呀？
服務員: 嗯，，在游泳池旁邊有標誌。我們工作人員會帶您過去。
雪莉: 好的，到那時我們會更小心的。
服務員: 這是你們的游泳帽，這個黃色的是給您小孩的。這樣便於我們區分小孩。
雪莉: 哇，丹尼爾，戴上那個帽子肯定好看。過來把它戴上。
