A gift for Dad’s birthday

(At the department Store)

Mom, what’s this?
Let me have a look. Oh, it’s a gadget for recording steps.
What is it used for?
For recording how many steps you walk.
Dad likes walking. I am going to give this to him at his birthday. I am sure he will like it.
Good, good, let’s have a try. Come on. You try it first. Wait, wait. Ok, Count (steps) when walking.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Let me see how many it is displaying. 8. It is not accurate. Try once again. Walk well.
Mom, should I walk like an armyman?
Not necessary.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 12 13 14 15
How many is it showing this time. 14, almost the same. Try again.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10, Mom, it shows just 10.
Good. It is accurate anyway. You just didn’t walk rightly, not the gadget's problem. We will have this one. Your father have to walk in a standard way later on.
Mom, how much money is its price?
28 Yuan. Ok, I ‘ll go for paying. You wear it and have a walk again.
