DIALOGUE

A：星期天下午你有空吗？咱们一起去逛街怎么样？

B：不好意思。我星期天下午要去学跳肚皮舞。

A：之前从来没听你说过。你怎么突然想起了学这个？

B：是受我同事的影响。我看她跳得特别好，就想学了。其实我一直对跳舞有兴趣，不过总是没时间。

      跳这个可以瘦肚子，还可以让人变美。

A：我也想学。不过生完孩子后肚脐变得很难看。我有点儿不敢去。

B：没关系的。我们班上有好几个同学都是刚生完孩子的。

TRANSLATION

A: Are you free on Sunday afternoon? How about we go window-shopping together?
B: Sorry. I need to take a belly dance class on Sunday afternoon.
A: I've never heard you mention it. Why did you suddenly have this idea?
B: My colleague has influenced me. I just wanted to learn it since I'd seen her dance particularly well. I've been interested in dancing all the time, but always no time. It can flatten the belly and also make people beautiful.
A: I want to learn it, too. But I've got an ugly belly button since my child was born. I am a bit afraid to go there.
B: It doesn't matter. I have several classmates who have just given birth in the class.
