實用會話 Dialogue
A Hey, Barry. I’m thinking about taking a self-defense class, but I’m not sure which one to sign up for. B Well, I’ve tried taekwondo, karate, judo, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu, which is my favorite. A Which do you think would be the most suitablefor me? B I’d say Brazilian jiu-jitsu, too. A Why’s that? B Because its conceptis that even a small person like you can defendyourself against a big, strong opponent. A Who are you calling“small?” B Err... A I’m just kidding. That sounds perfect for me. But you’d better watch out when I start my lessons!
A 嘿，貝瑞。我想要上防身課，可是我不知道該報名上哪一種。 B 嗯，我有試過跆拳道、空手道、柔道及巴西柔術，我最喜歡巴西柔術。 A 你認為哪一個最適合我？ B 我認為巴西柔術也會很適合妳。 A 為什麼？ B 因為它的概念是，即使像妳一樣身材嬌小的人也可以自我防衛抵抗又高又強壯的對手。 A 你說誰「嬌小」？ B 啊……。 A 我只是在開玩笑。那聽起來很適合我。可是我開始上課後你最好小心點！
