玛丽：比尔，我真不敢相信我的眼睛。你午餐只吃沙拉？不吃汉堡？
Bill:Get used to it, Mary. I'm off burgers for good. Most fast food is loaded with sodium.
比尔：玛丽，你得开始习惯喽。我已经决定永远不吃汉堡了。大部分快餐，钠的含量都很高。
Mary: I know. But why your sudden interest in lessening your salt intake?
玛丽：这我知道。但你为什么突然想减少盐的摄取量？
Bill:My doctor says I should cut back on sodium-rich foods to lower my blood pressure.
比尔：医生说我必须少吃高钠盐的食物以降低血压。
Mary: Do you have hypertension? I would have thought you were too young.
玛丽：你有高血压？你还这么年轻。
Bill:Actually, my blood pressure isn't that high yet, but they say it increases with age.
比尔：事实上我的血压也没有那么高，但据说血压会随年龄的增长而增高。
Mary: Well, I'm glad you're starting to pay more attention to your diet.
玛丽：啊，真高兴看到你开始比较注意饮食了。

比尔：我也想降低得心脏病和中风的危险。
Mary: So do I. That's why I've been trying to lower my cholesterol level.
玛丽：我也是，这就是为什么我一直想降低胆固醇指数的原因。
Bill:I've noticed you've been munching4 away on lots of fruits and vegetables recently.
比尔：我注意到你最近大吃蔬菜水果。
Mary: That's right. I could stand to lose a few pounds, too.
玛莉：没错。这样我还可以减掉几磅。
Bill:In that case, you should come to my health club with me.
比尔：既然如此，你应该跟我一起去健身俱乐部。
Mary: You've joined a health club? I would never have dreamed that you'd take something like this so seriously.
玛丽：你参加健身俱乐部了？我做梦也没想到你会这样认真对待一件事。
Bill:So, how about it? Can you tear yourself away from the TV tonight?
比尔：怎么样？你舍得不看今晚的电视吗？
Mary: Why not? If you can break your unhealthy eating habits, I can surely break a sweat.
玛丽：为什么不呢？你都可以改正不良饮食习惯，我流点汗又何妨？
