外教讲解地道美语 第144期:谈论病情

A: What’s wrong with you? Why are you scratching so much?

B:   I feel itchy!  I can’t stand it anymore!  I think I may be coming down with something. I feel lightheaded and weak.

A:   Let me have a look. Whoa! Get away from me!

B:   What’s wrong?

A:   I think you have chicken pox! You are contagious! Get away! Don’t breathe on me!

B:   Maybe it’s just a rash or an allergy!  We can’t be sure until I see a doctor.

A:   Well in the meantime you are a biohazard! I didn’t get it when I was a kid and I’ve heard that you can even die if you get it as an adult!

B:   Are you serious?  You always blow things out of proportion. In any case, I think I’ll go take an oatmeal bath.
