steve： this place serves good breakfasts， don't you think?

howard： yes. but i'm not used to eating american-style breakfast.

steve： what are you planning to do today?

howard： i saw yesterday that they rent windsurfers at the beach. i want to rent one.

steve： have you done windsurfing before?

howard： no， but it looks fun. i always wanted to try it.

steve： can you take a little advice from a friend?

howard： sure. what?

steve： don't waste your money. windsurfing is very hard. and it will be windy today.

they will charge you fifty dollars for a half-hour， and you won't be able to windsurf.

you will fall and fall and fall.

howard： but i always wanted to try it.

steve： yes， but it takes a long time to learn.

you would spend a thousand dollars to learn it on a rental windsurfer.

howard： well， i will see. how was your day at the office?

steve： hectic. it's always hectic. but how was your windsurfing?

howard： i tried it for a half-hour.

it was interesting， but…… well…… i couldn't really do it.

steve： see? i told you. it's very hard.

howard： i couldn't even stand on it and hold the sail. i probably fell down fifty times.

steve： fifty times?

howard： yes， it was really stupid.

steve： and how much did it cost to rent it?

howard： it was fifty dollars for a half-hour.

steve： well， that's not too bad then.

howard： what do you mean? it's expensive!

steve： yes， but you have to calculate a little.

you paid fifty dollars and you fell down fifty times.

so you only spent one dollar per fall. that's cheap.
