It’s already summer! Dad and I are planning to climb a mountain next week. I’m also planning to take martial arts classes after that. Do you want to join me?
I’d love to climb a mountain with you next week and try martial arts. However, I don’t think I’ll do well in martial arts. I’m athletic but kicks and punches are not my likings.
Martial arts are not just about kicks and punches. It also values concentration, discipline, and patience. Since you don’t like martial arts, what kind of sports do you like?
I like team sports. How about you? What kind of sports do you want to learn aside from martial arts?
I want to learn how to play team sports. Perhaps, I can try them next school year. I hope I pass the try-outs.

This place is amazing! I have never been anywhere so different from my home country. Could you recommend other places similar to this temple?
Sure. I recommend a place near the mountain. It is as peaceful as this place. They are old but has a diverse past. Good thing the locals preserved these places quite well.

They really did a great job in preserving this place. Look at this temple! It is so fascinating! Thank you for bringing me to this place.
No problem, Ron. Before we enter the temple, just make sure to remove your shoes.

Sure. I wonder why it is so quiet here in the temple, despite being crowded.
Good observation. People are meditating so noise is strictly prohibited. Even children are advised to be quiet and respectful here.
