【解析】

W: I want to buy a pair of running shoes.

M: Why do you need running shoes?

W: I exercise at a fitness club. And I use the running machine. So I need good running shoes.

M: You aren’t a runner. Maybe you should buy running-shoe-style shoes.

W: What does that mean? What is the difference?

M: There are some differences. Real running shoes are much more expensive. They have very lightweight materials. They’re designed for serious runners or professional runners. Running-shoe-style shoes look like running shoes. They’re designed for beginners.

W: But they are much heavier, right?

M: That’s right.

W: The real running shoes are what I want. I can even spend 100 dollars on them.

M: But it’s a waste of money.

W: I don’t care. My sister has a pair of New Balance running shoes. They look cool. I want shoes just like hers.

M: Well, do what you like. Let’s look at the New Balance shoes.

W: Here it is. This is what my sister has.

M: They cost 130 dollars.

W: I’ll take this pair.
