Sample
A: You know, I think being an astronaut would be cool.
B: Do you want to work in space in the future
A: I’m not sure, but I think it might be too difficult for me. There are so many requirements. First of all, you must be intelligent enough to get a related college degree. Then you have to be a pilot with years of training and practice flying. Finally, you must be really physically fit.
B: So what might be the most difficult part for you
A: I guess it might be the space travel itself. I’m sure being weightless must be fun, and it would be wonderful to see the Earth and stars from space. But the spacesuit and capsule look terribly small and uncomfortable. It would be hard to stay in such a small space for so long. Also, there’s no privacy at all. What if I have to go to the restroom
B: I see what you mean.
