Conversation 1
Kate Oh, Janet, you don't look too good. What's the matter?
Janet Oh, I'm OK. I am not sleeping very well at the moment, so I'm quite tired. I fell asleep in the lecture just now.
Kate Is anything wrong?
Janet Oh, I don't know. Maybe I'm worried about my end of term exams. And I've got an essay to write.
Kate Are you eating properly? I didn't e you at dinner last night.
搞笑自我介绍Janet No, I've lost my appetite. I can't face any more Western food for a few days.
Kate I think you've lost some weight. Do you feel sick?
Janet Mostly homesick.
Kate Have you talked to your tutor?
Janet No! Why would I do that?
Kate Well, it's part of his job to keep an eye on your health. Why don't you make an appointment to e the doctor?
Janet But I'm all right.
Kate Do you have any other symptoms? Do you have a headache?
Janet Well, I have a headache nearly all the time at the moment. And I feel a bit depresd. But it's nothing. I'll be all right. Plea! Don't worry about me.
Kate 欣然而至You poor thing! Why don't you make an appointment to e the doctor. She'll give you a check-up, take your temperature and blood pressure, all the usual tests.

Kate You're not making a fuss. I am! And I'm coming with you.

Janet Fortunately, he didn't e me.
Doctor OK, I'm going to ask you a few questions. How's your social life?
Janet It's fine. I've got some really nice friends.

Doctor OK, so you'd like some what's your favourite food?

Doctor 穷人的悲哀Not much fried rice for dinner in college, is there? Um, any worries about your work?
Janet No. Maybe. Yes, I suppo so.
Doctor Do you have an essay crisis?
Janet Yes! I haven't finished all the reading. I don't read as quickly as my friends, so it takes me a long time to write my essays.

Janet OK.

文案温柔Customer 1 Hi, can I get, um, a HULK plea.
Customer 2 Can I have a HULK?
Customer 3 I'd like to try the HULK.
Voice-over Welcome to the bodyfactory, one of the hottest spots in Los Angeles.
Customer 4 The rvice is great.
Customer 5 I come to the bodyfactory quite often.
Voice-over Company founder, CEO, and president, Robert Green, has made a career for himlf by following his passion: health and fitness. Trained as a dancer, Robert has been an exerci instructor, a TV show host, and a successful entrepreneur. Robert has built the bodyfactory around the HULK. The HULK is a smoothie, but it's not like any other smoothie you've ever tried.
Robert We have over 30 smoothies, but what ems to be the most popular smoothie is the HULK. It's absolutely amazing. We beg and we plead people to try other drinks, but the HULK is really where it's at. The HULK smoothie was created by me about 12 years ago and what's so amazing is there's nothing out there for the average consumer that contains all your green vegetables, that tastes really, really good and that actually has the nutritional breakdown that your body needs on a daily basis. So some of the ingredients include broccoli, spinach, cayenne pepper, celery, tomatoes, onions, brown ri
ce, aweed, sage, thyme, a salt. With so many ingredients, people might expect it to taste not so good, but this drink is absolutely the best drink you'll ever have.
出血性胃炎Customer 6 I love the HULK. I drink it every day.

Customer 4 I hate swallowing pills, so I get all of my vitamins in the HULK.
Customer 7 It gets me through my day.
Robert People actually develop a craving for this, an actual addiction, in a good way, for this positive food. So someone who's never worked out in their life, someone who's never eaten healthy in their life, could drink the shake and actually love drinking the shake, develop a craving for this good, quality shake. It actually makes them want to continue this new lifestyle that they have.

Passage 1
In 1812 a young man called James Barry finished his studies in medicine at Edinburgh University. After graduating he moved to London where he studied surgery at Guy's Hospital. After that, the popular young doctor joined the army and over the next 40 years had a brilliant career as an army medical officer, working in many far off countries and fighting successfully for improved conditions in hospitals. It was a remarkable career - made even more remarkable by the discovery upon his death that James Barry had kept an extraordinary cret.
