　　D: How long has it been bothering you?

　　T: For about ten days. Will I need to be hospitalized?

　　D: Take it easy. Let me have a look. How would you describe the pains? Are they sharp dull, aching or aching or cramping?

　　T: I think dull. Is it serious?

　　D: Mm, you do look pale. Let me take your temperature. Just put this thermometer under your armpit. Now, let me listen to your pulse. Mm, do you feel weak?

　　T: Yes, I always feel tired.

　　D: Please unbutton your shirt and lie down on the couch.

　　英语笔记

　　1.What's your complaint 意为“什么病?”

　　2.take it easy 连读为/teɪ kɪ ti:zɪ/。

　　3.Are they sharp, dull, aching or cramping?中sharp, dull, aching 读升调，cramping 读降调。

　　4.look pale 中的/k/与/p/相遇，/k/为不完全爆破，读作/lʊk ˈpeɪl/。

　　英语语音语调

　　/k/失去爆破

　　由于/k/与/p/相遇，你听到的“look pale”不是/lukpeɪl/，而是/lʊk ˈpeɪl/。因为，/k/遇到后面的辅音/p/失去爆破。

　　再如：

　　You can do it like /laɪ/ this.

　　你可以这么做。

　　I bought a black /blæ/ skirt yesterday.

　　昨天我买了一条黑裙子。

　　He has been back /bæ/ to school.

　　他已经回到学校了。
