玛丽：小李，你最近忙吗？ 小李：特别忙，周末都奉献给公司了。 玛丽：什么意思？ 小李：一到周五，老板就给我们发邮件：加班！这段时间我们把周末都给公司了，还不给加薪，这不是奉献嘛！ 玛丽：太过分了！ 小李：原来我周末过得很丰富的，运动运动啊、去郊区爬爬山啊，或者跟朋友聚聚会什么的。 玛丽：真好！我也很喜欢运动，你都做什么运动呀？ 小李：游泳、打球我都喜欢。 玛丽：在美国的时候我每周都运动，但是来中国后忙着学汉语，再说也没找到伴儿，所以很少运动了。现在好了，咱们一起去打球吧。你都打什么球？ 小李：什么球都喜欢打。 玛丽：那我们改天一起去打羽毛球吧。 小李：别改天了，就这个周末吧，我们多叫几个朋友，可以单打，也可以双打嘛！ 玛丽：太好啦，不过，你不用加班吗？ 小李：加了班更需要运动啊！ Mary: Little Li, are you busy lately?
Little Li: Terribly busy. I dedicate my time to the company.
M: What do you mean?
L: Come Friday, the boss sends us an e-mail: to work overtime! This time we give the weekend to the company, yet no raise in salary. Is this not dedication!
M: That's outrageous!
L: Originally I'd spend an enriched weekend, do sports, go mountain climbing in the suburbs, or get together with friends.
M: Really good! Me too I like doing sports. What sports do you do?
L: Swimming, I like to play ball games.
M: In America I did sports every weekend, but in China I'm busy studying Chinese, besides I did not yet find a partner. So I did very few sports. Now it's better, we can go play ball games together. What ball games do you play?
L: I like to play any ball games.
M: In that case we go play badminton another day.
L: Not another day. This weekend we call a few more friends, we can play singles or doubles if you want!
M: Very good, but don't you have to work overtime?
L: Exercise is more needed after working overtime.
