M: Yes. They made him retire after fifty years at sea. He is pretty upset about it, but what can you do? He really is past it. W: He is all alone, isn't he?
M: Yes, his wife has been dead for years. They had one daughter. Dories. But she went off to town as soon as she left school. And he hasn't heard from her since. I hear she is making good money as a model.
W: Maybe someone could get in touch with her. Get her to come back for a while to help?
M: I don't suppose she'll come. She never got on with her father. He is a bit of a tough character and she is rather selfish. Oh, I expect old Jake will get by. He is healthy at least, comes into a clinic for a check regularly.
W: Are you his doctor?
M: No, my partner doctor Johnson is.
W: That bad-tempered old thing?
M: Oh, he isn't really bad-tempered. He just looks it. He is an excellent doctor, taught me a lot, and he has a very nice family. His wife invites me over there to supper every week. Very pleasant.
W: Yes. I teach the daughter Pen at school. She is a bit careless and lazy about her school work, but a bright little thing and very popular with her age group.

Beverly Bergman, the patient's daughter, says, "When you're【C8】______ , and you're treating a person with【C9】______ pain or intractable pain, there are consequences.

听力原文:F: Hello, Jim. What's your problem?
M: Hi, Doctor Lee. I don't feel well.
F: What symptoms did you get?
M: You know, cough, fever, runny nose, my head and bones ache, chills even. I was miserable for a week and it ended up mining my holiday.
F: Sounds like a typical flu to me. It often strikes when people are overtired, stressed out and not eating nutritious food. And also you increase your exposure to a virus when you're in big crowds where lots of people are coughing and sneezing.
M: I certainly spent a lot of time in department stores in the holiday buying gifts for people.
F: Yes. And so you increase your exposure to airborne viruses just when your body's resistance is already low from all the running around you do.
M: So what can I do to ward off the flu?
F: Actually it's fairly simple. Get a lot of rest, eat well. That way your immune system will be boosted. And you'll be more able to fight off illness.
M: All these things make sense. But one more question. Aren't I bound to get sick anyway if there's an outbreak in the dorm?
F: Oh, you didn't mention you lived in the dormitory. In that case I'd also suggest you get immunized. The vaccine available prevents the three main types of influenza. Why don't you go to the university health center? The shots are free them.
M: I'll do it right away. It will be nice to feel well during the holidays.

听力原文:W: Good afternoon, sir. What can I do to help?

W: Don't you have a prescription?
M: No, I haven't gone to see a doctor.
W: Are you allergic to any type of medication?
M: I don't know exactly. I think that I can take most drugs.
W: OK then, I recommend this brand for quick relief.
