原文呈现：

Peter: Hey Yaming! What are you up to?

Yaming: Hi Peter. I’m doing calligraphy.

Peter: It’s beautiful! What are you writing?

Yaming: It’s a poem by Li Bai. My grandmother taught me how to write it.

Peter: What’s this character?

Yaming: It’s yue. It means “moon”.

Peter: It’s nice! I like watching you write like that. But it looks difficult.

Yaming: Well, the first step is always the hardest. When I started to do calligraphy, I spent hours practising single strokes.

Peter: I know how that feels! My dad’s teaching me to play the guitar. It’s difficult, but he always encourages me not to give up.

Yaming: Exactly. Now I do calligraphy to relax. I even like how the ink smells! Why did you choose to play the guitar?

Peter: I think playing the guitar is cool. Will you teach me to write a poem? I can teach you to play a song in return.

Yaming: It’s a deal!
