（单词翻译）

Jan: This is the life! Spending the day at a spa is my idea of paradise.

Tim: Yeah, it’s great.

Jan: Aren’t you enjoying yourself?

Tim: The massage1 was okay, but why do I have to get a facial and a body wrap? I’m a guy!

Jan: Men need rejuvenating2, too. These are all holistic3 treatments and you’ll feel like a new man when you’re done. Just enjoy the pampering4.

Tim: I feel like an idiot. How am I supposed to relax?

Jan: Why don’t you get a body scrub or a scalp massage instead? Maybe that’ll calm your nerves.

Tim: I don’t need a body scrub or another massage. I just want to get out of here. When will we be done?

Jan: After this, all we have left are manicures and pedicures.

Tim: What?! I’m not getting a manicure or a pedicure.

Jan: You did promise to go with me to the spa if I agreed to have your four college friends stay in our house for two weeks, remember?

Tim: Yes, I remember. All right, let’s get this over with.

Jan: Just be glad I didn’t sign you up for waxing!
