400　The Only Time to Control 唯一可以控制的时候

As a nurse in a maternity unit, I've had to answer all kinds of questions from patients and their families. I couldn't help but notice that one expectant father seemed particularly interested in the electronic fetal monitor. “Would it hurt anything if I just turned this dial up and down from time to time?” he asked. “No,” I answered, “but why would you want to do that?” Smiling, the dad explained, “I know from experience it's the only time in a child's life I'll be able to control.”

作为产科病房的护士我不得不回答病人和家属的各种各样的问题。我忍不住要注意一位准父亲，似乎对电子胎儿监护仪特别感兴趣。他问我：“如果我把这个钮一会儿拨上来一会儿拨下去，会不会伤到胎儿呢？”我说：“那不会。不过你为什么想那样做呢？”他笑着解释说：“根据我的经验，在一个孩子的一生中，这是我唯一可以控制的时候。”
