#Person1#: Steven, would you like to go dance with us tonight? 
#Person2#: John, I am just not in the mood for this. 
#Person1#: You look so upset. What's going on? 
#Person2#: I lost the table tennis game yesterday. 
#Person1#: Oh, what a pity! 
#Person2#: I just don't want to play table tennis any more. 
#Person1#: Is it that bad? It's nothing more than a game. 
#Person2#: My opponent bowled me with the very first ball. I was wondering if it's appropriate for me to play table tennis. 
#Person1#: Oh, come on! Failure is the mother of success. Don't lose heart. I'm sure you'll succeed. 
#Person2#: Perhaps you are right. But I still need some time to recover from the failure. 
#Person1#: I understand. 
Steven lost the table tennis game and feels upset. John encourages him but Steven thinks he needs time to recover.
