Carl visits the doctor and goes through a checkup. The doctor tells him there doesn't seem to be anything seriously wrong, but he may have caught a touch of the flu. He also seems to be somewhat tired. The doctor writes a prescription for some medicine. Will this make Carl feel better?

　　Doctor:Come in, please. I'm Dr. Evans.

　　Carl:I'm Carl Mathews.

　　Doctor:Have a seat. What seems to be the problem?

　　Carl:I've lost a little weight recently, and I don't seem to have as much energy. My head and stomach were killing me yesterday. I might have had a fever, and I thought I ate something bad because I had the runs.

　　Doctor:(checking Carl's file) Everything was fine your last checkup 3 months ago. Are you eating OK? Do you bring anything up?

　　Carl:I'm eating fine, more or less. Last night, I thought I was going to vomit.

　　Doctor:Do you sleep well?

　　Carl:A little fitfully sometimes. This morning, I felt too sick to even get out of bed.

　　Doctor:(after checking Carl's heartbeat, blood pressure, and temperature) Everything seems to be OK. Any other symptoms?

　　Carl:No, nothing I can think of. I must say that things have been quite hectic around the office, recently.

　　Doctor:I think you may have a touch of the flu that's going around. And you do seem a little tired. I'll give you a flu shot and I recommend you take some vitamin supplements. Try to take it easier at work for a while, too.

　　Carl:Thanks, Doctor.

　　Carl去看医生，还做了一个身体检查。医生说他没什么大碍，只是得了流感，此外还有点疲劳过度。医生给他开了点药，这样会让Carl感觉好些吗？

　　Doctor:请进。我是Evans医生。

　　Carl:我是Carl Mathews.

　　Doctor:坐下吧。出什么问题了？

　　Carl:我近来体重又减轻了，而且感觉很疲劳。昨天我头又疼，胃又疼，简直把握折磨死了。我好像发烧了.，而且我觉得我可能吃坏了东西，现在拉肚子。。

　　Doctor:(检查Carl的医疗档案)三个月前，你最近一次体检时，一切正常。你吃得好吗？呕吐吗?

　　Carl:我吃得还算不错。昨晚，我觉得有点恶心想吐。

　　Doctor:你休息得好吗？

　　Carl:有时睡不太安稳。今早，我病得都起不了床了

　　Doctor:(听了Carl的心跳，量了他的血压和体温)一切都看来不错。有其他什么症状吗？

　　Carl:没有，我想不出什么来了。我得承认近来工作很忙。

　　Doctor:我觉得你染上了正流行的风寒。你看起来确实有点儿疲倦。我给你打一针，并建议你补充一些维生素。还有，最近一段时间工作不要太紧张。

　　Carl:谢谢，医生。
