W: Yeah,you could if you had a try.You know,skiing is my favorite sport and the only reason I like it so much is because it gives me great pleasure to speed through the snow.
M: My parents and I vacationed in Heavenly Ski Resort when I was little and I remembered we had great time going hiking.Now I feel like going back again.
W: Well,since we have two weeks'break for Christmas,you can spend a few days in California and I can give you lessons on skiing. That would give you some basics and hopefully you can ski like a professional in a few days.
