A Hi, Mr. Smith. I’m Dr. Hawkins. Why are you here today?

你好，史密斯先生。我是霍金斯醫(yī)生。你今天怎么來了？

B I thought it would be a good idea to get a check-up.

我想做個(gè)檢查還是好一些。

A Yes, well you haven’t had one for…five years. You should have one every year.

是呀，那么…你有5年一次檢查也沒有做過，你應(yīng)該每年檢查一次的。

B I know. I figure as long as there’s nothing wrong, why go see the doctor?

我知道。我想只要沒有什么不舒服的話，哪里要看什么醫(yī)生。

A Well, the best way to avoid serious illnesses is to find out about them early. So, try to come at least once a year for your own good.

哦，避免患上嚴(yán)重疾病的最好的方法是早點(diǎn)發(fā)現(xiàn)它，所以，為了你自己，還是每年至少來一次。

B O.K.

好的。

A Let me see here. Your eyes and ears look fine. Take a deep breath, please. Do you smoke, Mr. Smith?

讓我來檢查檢查。眼睛和耳朵情況良好。深呼吸一下。你吸煙嗎，史密斯先生？

B Yes.

吸煙。

A Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer and heart disease, you know. You really should quit.

你知道，吸煙是得肺癌和心臟病的最主要因素。你應(yīng)該戒煙。

B I’ve tried a hundred times, but I just can’t seem to kick the habit.

我試了100次了，但是好像不太可能戒煙。

A Well, we have classes and some medications that might help. I’ll give you more information before you leave.

那么，我們開設(shè)了一些課程，并會(huì)發(fā)放一些藥物，可能會(huì)有些幫助。你離開的時(shí)候我再詳細(xì)地跟你說說。

B O.K., thanks, doctor.

好的，謝謝你，醫(yī)生。
