[speaker001:] Steven, would you like to go dance with us tonight?
[speaker002:] John, I am just not in the mood for this.
[speaker001:] You look so upset. What's going on?
[speaker002:] I lost the table tennis game yesterday.
[speaker001:] Oh, what a pity!
[speaker002:] I just don 't want to play table tennis any more.
[speaker001:] Is it that bad? It 's nothing more than a game.
[speaker002:] My opponent bowled me with the very first ball. I was wondering if it's appropriate for me to play table tennis.
[speaker001:] Oh, come on! Failure is the mother of success. Don 't lose heart. I'm sure you'll succeed.
[speaker002:] Perhaps you are right. But I still need some time to recover from the failure.
[speaker001:] I understand.
