Fanny: Hey, Brian, what's the most popular1 sports in Canada?
Brian: The most popular sport is definitely2 ice hockey.
 
Fanny: Ice hockey! So do you play hockey by yourself3?
 
Brian: I don't actually4. When I was5 a kid6, I wanted to play ice hockey, and I was always like begging7 my dad and asking him but he always said8 'NO'.
 
Fanny: Why?
 
Brian: I think the big reason9 is that... Well, he told me it was too expensive.
 
Fanny: Is it?
 
Brian: It's not cheap. You know, it costs10 quite a bit11 to get all the gear12 but the big reason I think is the practice13 was always very early in the morning.
 
Fanny: Oh, I see.
 
Brian: Like five a.m. is when the practice is, and I think he was too lazy14 to wake15 up and take me to the practice.
 
Fanny: Oh, I see.
 
Brian: He told me it was too expensive. Deep16 down I think he was.... he didn't want to drive me.
 
Fanny: So are there many people playing hockey?
 
Brian: There are. It's a great sport. It's very popular with many children, and maybe high schools and universities17 all have hockey teams.
 
Fanny: Oh, nice. That means18 you're a lot of rich people in Canada, then.
 
Brian: Or maybe they spend all of their money on hockey gear. Have you ever19 played hockey?
 
Fanny: No, no, not really. It's not that popular in China.
 
Brian: What kind of sports are more common20 in China?
 
Fanny: People always play soccer...
 
Brian: Ah21, soccer.
 
Fanny: And table tennis. Table tennis is very popular.
 
Brian: You're country is very strong at table tennis I think.
 
Fanny: We always get all the medals22 in the big, you know, big events23
 
Brian: Why is table tennis so popular now do you think?
 
Fanny: I think the first reason is that everybody24 can play it because it's very easy to get the, you know, the... to get ready for the sports. It's not expensive.
 
Brian: No, I guess you just need the ball and the paddle25.
 
Fanny: The paddle. The ball and the paddle. Yes, and a partner26.
 
Brian: Right. Right. So have you played it then?
 
Fanny: Yeah, I'm quite good at it.
 
Brian: Oh, really.
 
Fanny: Because my mother plays very well and so I always played with my mom, so I got27 better now.
 
Brian: OK. So she taught28 you how to play table tennis?
 
Fanny: Actually she didn't teach me but we always played together.
 
Brian: Right.
 
Fanny: Practice makes perfect29.
 
Brian: So they say.
 
Fanny: Yeah.
