Ashley: do you like playing games?

David:I like playing computer games, but I'm not really into board games.

A: how about individual games like the Rubik's cube or solitaire?

D: the Rubik's cube is so difficult to solve that I think it should be banned!

A:if I taught you how to do it, I'm sure you could solve it.

D: how did you figure out how to slove the Rubik's cube?

A: I didn't really have to figure it out. I just followed the instructions!

D: I had no idea there were a set of instructions. I thought everyone who could solve it were all geniuses!

A: hints are really important when you're solving puzzles. If you give me some hints about playing that PS2 game, I’ll show you how to solve the Rubik's cube.

D: it's a deal.

A: do you remember, years ago, when everybody at the New Year's party had yo-yos?

D: yeah. That was a strange party. Can you still do any of those yo-yo tricks?

A: I don't know. I haven't tried yo-yo since that party!

D: I could never figure out how to use my yo-yo.

A: if you don't start when you're young, it's hard to get the hang of it.

D: let's get started with this game then.

A: ok.

你喜歡玩游戲嗎?

我喜歡玩電腦游戲,但是不怎么喜歡玩棋盤游戲.

單人游戲比如魔方或者單人撲克怎么樣?

魔方太難了,我覺得應(yīng)該禁止.

要是我來教你怎么玩,我敢保證你能玩好.

你是怎么弄明白魔方怎么玩的?

我其實(shí)也沒弄明白怎么對(duì)好魔方,我只是按照說明書做的.

我搞不懂那一長(zhǎng)串的說明書.我覺得所有能轉(zhuǎn)好魔方的人都是天才.

當(dāng)我們玩解密游戲的時(shí)候,攻略提示是非常重要的.如果你能教我怎么玩好PS2游戲,我就教你怎么轉(zhuǎn)魔方.

一言為定.

你記得多年前,某次新年晚會(huì)上人人都玩溜溜球嗎?

是啊,那次聚會(huì)很奇怪.你還會(huì)玩溜溜球的那些花樣嗎?

我不知道.那次聚會(huì)以后我就再?zèng)]有玩過溜溜球了.

我從來就沒掌過玩溜溜球的竅門.

如果你不是從小就開始玩這個(gè),恐怕很難掌握訣竅.

咱們還是回到這個(gè)游戲上吧.

好的.
