情景对话:
A: Hi, do you like skiing?
B: I love it. I took some lessons last winter.
A: Wow, you must be good at it.
B: Yes, I can slide smoothly. But, when I started to learn it, I kept falling down and couldn't control myself well.
Once, while I was sliding along the ski slope, I found I forgot how to slow down and slid faster and faster!
A: Oh, poor girl. What happened then?
B: I cried aloud. And my coach heard it and came to help me out.
A: It's lucky you didn't get hurt.
B: Yeah. By the way, can you ski?
A: No. But I plan to learn it.
B: Well, in my opinion, you should take the beginner's class for some basic techniques.
A: What will the coaches teach?
B: They will teach you how to slide, turn, slow down and stop.
A: Should I prepare the skis and poles in advance?
B: No. You may rent them at the ski rental. But you'd better buy boots, gloves and ski goggles.
A: I see. Thank you for your help. Perhaps we can go skiing together in the future.

B:很喜欢。我去年冬天参加了一个滑雪学习班。
A:哇,那你一定滑得很好啦。
B:还行吧.我可以平稳地滑行了.但是.当我刚开始学的时候,总是不停地摔跤,控制不好自己。有一次,当我沿着滑雪坡道滑行的时候,我突然发现,我忘记了如何减速,所以越滑越快!
A:噢,太可怜了。接着怎么样了呢?
B:我大喊大叫。我的教练听到了,过来帮助了我。
A:很幸运你没受什么伤.
B:是啊。顺便问问,你会滑雪吗?
A:不会。但我打算学学。

A:教练会教些什么呢?
