The story

李奶奶：大卫，你的脚怎么了？David, what happened to your foot?

大卫：我受伤了。李医生说，这个星期不能跑步。I hurt it. Dr. Li says I can't run this week.

李奶奶：不能跑步？那你跟我们去公园锻炼吧！Can't run? Then come and work out with us in the park!

大卫：锻炼？在公园锻炼什么？Work out? Doing what in the park?

李奶奶：太极拳啊！我们每天早上六点在公园里打太极拳。Tai chi! We do tai chi in the park every morning at six.

大卫：太极拳？那是老人的运动吧？我这么年轻……Tai chi? Isn't that for old people? I'm so young...

李奶奶：年轻？好啊！明天我们看看，谁更厉害。Young, are you? Fine! Tomorrow we'll see who's better.

李奶奶：大家好！这是大卫，他今天跟我们队一起锻炼。Morning, everyone! This is David. He's working out with our group today.
