Shirley: Hi, Jane, you are a different person now. How's it going?

Jane: The training is useful, and I learned much about how to keep fit.

Shirley: Really? Tell me about it. You know, I haven't been to the club for a long time because of the busy work..

Jane: The first thing we should do is to have a healthy diet. The more fruits you eat, the better your skin appears.

Shirley: The same thing with vegetables, right? Everybody seems to know that. There is something else?

Jane: Yeah, I'm not sure you've heard that a sound sleep is crucial for fitness¹.

Shirley: I've heard that. Does your trainer tell you anything about staying in a good mood?

Jane: Exactly. A good sense of humor can help your metabolism² work better.

Shirley: That's the same old things. But they are very important, if you wanna achieve your goals.

Jane: Yes, that's the way to go. It's also important to do proper exercise.

Shirley: Right, too much or too little wouldn't be effective. Have you learned anything else?

Jane: There is one. The trainer asks us to buy more skin care products.

Shirley: Are you kidding? My trainer has never said such thing to me. He always advises people against such kind of things.

Jane: But my trainer does. He says women tend to show their age earlier than men. They get wrinkles³ on their faces easier. So they really need something to delay the process.

Shirley: That makes sense. Following these rules, I think you will be right on your track.

Jane: Yes, right now nothing can stop me!

雪莉:嗨，简。你现在跟以前不一样了。最近怎么样？

简:训练很有用。我学到了很多关于保持健康的知识。

雪莉:真的吗？跟我说说。你知道的，最近工作太忙，我已经很久没有去俱乐部了。

简:首先我们应该有一个健康的饮食习惯。水果吃得越多，皮肤就会越好。

雪莉:蔬菜也是一样的吧？每个人好像都知道呀。有什么特别的吗？

简:嗯，我不知道你是否知道好的睡眠对于保持身体健康也很重要。

雪莉:我知道。你的教练告诉你保持好的心情状态的相关知识了吗？

简:嗯，好的心情能够帮助你改善新陈代谢。

雪莉:又是老的一套。但是如果你想到到你的目标的话，它们的确是很重要。

简:嗯，就是这样呀。做适量的运动也很重要。

雪莉:对呀，太多或者太少都不会有效。还有什么别的？

简:嗯，有的。教练让我们买一些护肤品。

雪莉:你开玩笑吧？我的教练从来没有对我说过类似的事情。他总是建议我们不要用这种东西。

简:但是我的教练确实这样说了。他说女人比男人容易显老，脸上容易有皱纹，所以必须用一些护肤品来延缓这个过程。

雪莉:嗯，这有道理。有了这些规则，我想你就会达到你想要的效果。

简:对，没有什么可以阻挡我。
