At a club fair, Angela is attracted to the stall of the E-sports club.
Wow! I love your stall, especially those fancy computers.
Thanks! We use these computers in our club.
OK. What kind of club is this?
This is the E-sports club.
What do you do in the E-sports club? Do you fix computers?
No, we don't. Let me put it this way. Do you like video games?
Yes, I do, but what does that have to do with your club?
We all love games, such as "League of Legends." We even team up to compete with other schools.
Really? Wow!
So, would you like to join us?
Oh, no. I only play "Pokemon GO." I'm just looking for someone to fix my computer.

在社團博覽會上，Angela 被吸引到電子競技社的攤位。
哇!我喜歡你們的攤位，尤其是那些酷炫的電腦。
謝謝!我們在社團裡使用這些電腦。
好哦。這是什麼社團？
這是電競社。
電競社是做什麼的？修電腦嗎？
不，我們沒有修電腦。讓我這樣說吧。妳喜歡玩電玩遊戲嗎？
是啊，我喜歡，但是那跟你的社團有什麼關係？
我們都喜歡玩遊戲，像是「英雄聯盟」之類的。我們甚至組隊與其他學校比賽。
真的嗎？哇!
那麼，妳想加入我們嗎？
哦，不。我只玩「精靈寶可夢 GO」。我只是在找可以幫我修電腦的人。
