Clerk: Good afternoon, madam. How can I help you?

Shirley: Well, I am a bit out of shape. I’m thinking about getting some exercises to keep fit.

Clerk: Oh, that’s good news for us.

Shirley: So what do you provide?

Clerk: First of all, we’ll design a custom-made work-out plan according to your habits.

Shirley: How can you get that done?

Clerk: Well, we give each of our customers a personal trainer who is qualified. And he will give you a fitness assessment and then come up with the work-out plan for your needs.

Shirley: What else?

Clerk: Since everyone is different, your personal trainer will find you a suitable type of exercise equipment and teach you all the techniques to help you achieve your fitness level and goal.

Shirley: Sounds pretty good. What about the charge?

Clerk: That depends. We offer membership for one month, half a year and one year.

Shirley: Maybe one month. Just have a try first. Not too tough at the beginning.

Clerk: Wise decision. You’ll find it’s totally worth it.

Shirley: What’s your business hour?
