地道美语听力练习:医院寻人
Jordan:Excuse me, my girlfriend was brought into the hospital about two hours ago, but I can't find her.
Admissions Clerk:Why was she brought into the hospital?
Jordan:I'm not sure. I got a call from her coworker, but she didn't give me any details.
Admissions Clerk:If it weren't an accident, then she wouldn't be in the emergency room or the trauma unit.
Jordan:It may have been her heart. She has a heart condition.
Admissions Clerk:Then she might be in the cardiology department.
If she is in severe condition, she'll be in the ICU.
Jordan:It may also be the baby. She's pregnant.
Admissions Clerk:Then she might be in the obstetrics and gynecology department.
And if the baby has been born, it would be in the neonatal unit.
Jordan:I'm just not sure where to go.
Maybe I'll start in the cardiology department.
Admissions Clerk:That's fine. Go past the neurology and oncology departments and it's on your right.
If you see the burn unit, then you've gone too far.
Jordan:You can't look her up for me to see if she's been admitted?
Admissions Clerk:I'm sorry, but our computer systems are down right now.
If you wait until they're up again, I can try to find her for you.
Jordan:And go out of my mind worrying?
No thanks. I'm going to find her, even if I have to look behind every bedpan!
