    我们工作都很努力。我们需要做些事情来放松放松。可是做什么呢?我们有很多选择。你可以和朋友一起上饭馆,读读书,看电视,玩电脑游戏,睡觉甚至发展一项如放风筝的业余爱好。

    不过对某些人来说,这些活动太平静了。从黎明时分开始,人们就已经聚集在一起举行派对。现在人们通常在夜总会和酒吧里聚会。

    这里有一个很有趣的问题。夜总会和酒吧的区别是什么?酒吧主要是喝东西的地方,而夜总会也提供酒水,不过那主要是跳舞的场所。

    . When dancing, be free to express yourself but try not to bump into other people.

    . Picking fights is stupid and immature. If you want to fight, go to a boxing club, not a nightclub.

    招事惹非是愚蠢、不成熟的做法。如果你想打架,到拳击俱乐部去打,而不要在夜总会里打。

    . Try to meet new people and talk or ask them if they want to dance. Clubbing is all about relaxing and making new friends.

    尝试着去结识新人,和他们聊天或者问他们想不想跳舞。去夜总会就是去休息和结交新朋友。
