A Hi, Mr. Smith. I’m Dr. Hawkins. Why are you here today?
你好，史密斯先生。我是霍金斯医生。你今天怎么来了？
B I thought it would be a good idea to get a check-up.
我想做个检查还是好一些。
A Yes, well you haven’t had one for…five years. You should have one every year.
是呀，那么…你有5年一次检查也没有做过，你应该每年检查一次的。
B I know. I figure as long as there’s nothing wrong, why go see the doctor?
我知道。我想只要没有什么不舒服的话，哪里要看什么医生。
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，避免患上严重疾病的最好的方法是早点发现它，所以，为了你自己，还是每年至少来一次。
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?
让我来检查检查。眼睛和耳朵情况良好。深呼吸一下。你吸烟吗，史密斯先生？
B Yes.
吸烟。
A Smoking is the leading cause of lung cancer and heart disease, you know. You really should quit.
你知道，吸烟是得肺癌和心脏病的最主要因素。你应该戒烟。
B I’ve tried a hundred times, but I just can’t seem to kick the habit.
我试了100次了，但是好像不太可能戒烟。
A Well, we have classes and some medications that might help. I’ll give you more information before you leave.
那么，我们开设了一些课程，并会发放一些药物，可能会有些帮助。你离开的时候我再详细地跟你说说。
B O.K., thanks, doctor.
好的，谢谢你，医生。
