有氧運動（aerobics）歷來被視做減肥健身的佳途徑，許多女性朋友都樂此不疲。Marilyn也是一樣，不過今天她有點感到“疲勞”了，因為高級班的課程要連續(xù)一個小時不停運動，實在是吃不消。回到家里向老公訴苦，卻招來Richard的冷嘲熱諷。
的解決辦法就是賭一賭……
Marilyn: I am exhausted. My new exercise class is so hard.
Richard: I lift weights every morning for sixty minutes without stopping. No problem.
Marilyn: Listen, Richard, doing aerobics for an hour is a lot different than lifting weights.
Richard: Yeah. Quite a bit different. I think aerobics is easy. I could work out in your class with no problem.
Marilyn: You think so?
Richard: Oh, without a doubt. You want to bet?
Marilyn: Yeah. What's the bet?
Richard: I bet I can go one hour in your class this morning and not feel a thing!
Marilyn: The bet is —— I win, and you cook dinner for the entire family. Or you win, and I cook dinner for the entire family.
Marilyn: 我太累了。我那里的健身班太難了。
Richard: 每天早晨我舉重六十分鐘中間還不是沒有休息。小事一樁。
Marilyn: 聽著，Richard，一小時的有氧運動可與舉重大不相同。
Richard: 是啊。相當不一樣。我覺得有氧運動很容易。如果我去你的班上做運動一定不會覺得有問題。
Marilyn: 你這樣認為？
Richard: 哦，毫無問題。想打賭嗎？
Marilyn: 好啊。賭什么？
Richard: 我打賭我今天在你的健身班運動一小時之后絲毫不累！
Marilyn: 這樣賭好了：我贏了，你為全家做晚餐；要是你贏了，我替全家做晚餐。
