Read the text and translate it, At the Doctor's If we catch cold, we feel a splitting headache, have a clogged nose, cough, run a high temperature, we must go to the polyclinic. First we come to the registry. The registering clerk on duty asks the name, address, age and occupation. He writes out some slips because several specialists will examine us. Some of them will listen to our heart and lungs, some will check up our kidneys, liver, stomach, eyesight, hearing. The others will conduct our blood analysis, take our blood pressure and X-ray us. Our district doctor sees his patients in the consulting room No. 4. A nurse gives us a thermometer to take our temperature. We must keep it under an armpit. Last time my temperature was 37.9°C. The doctor asked what my trouble was. He offered to sit down in a chair and to strip to the waist. He felt my pulse. It was faint and accelerated. Then I lay on the examination couch, and the doctor palpated my abdomen. He asked me from what diseases I suffered in my childhood. I suffered from scarlet fever (measles, chicken pox). At that moment I felt dizzy and was damp with sweat. The doctor filled in my card and diagnosed the case as the flu. Then he wrote out a prescription for some medicine: pills, powder, drops, mixture. He also advised me to take a scalding foot bath, to put a hot water bottle on my feet, to have a hot tea with raspberry jam. That would keep my fever down. The results of my X-ray examination and blood analysis were normal. I had the prescription made at the chemist's. I followed the prescribed treatment to avoid complications. Every day I took a tablespoonful of mixture 3 times a day and some pills. In two days I was better and in a week I recovered from my illness. I began to take a good care of myself. Now I go in for sports because sports make us strong, healthy and cheerful. Every day I do my morning exercises and have a cold rubdown to prevent myself from catching cold. There is a good proverb: an apple a day keeps the doctor away. That's why I eat a lot of fruit and vegetables. In cause of a sudden and severe illness or an accident calls are made to the first aid station. There doctors are on duty all day round. There are many ambulances there equipped with everything necessary to render first aid. They have all kinds of medicine, stretchers, radio equipment. A patient is transported to the hospital without delay. There he is taken to the reception ward first. After careful questioning and examination the doctor fills in the patient's case history. Then a patient is given special clothes and is put to a ward for treatment. The doctors make their daily round there. They examine patients and prescribe different treatments. The nurses take the patients' temperature, give injections, apply cups and mustard plasters, give medicine. When a patient is completely cured, he is discharged from the hospital. There are different departments in the hospital. They are: surgical department, therapy, the department of infectious diseases, etc. The problem of health service has become one of the greatest concerns of the government. It's necessary to expose the disease before it has taken root, to nip the disease in the bud. Periodic medical examination at schools, plants, factories helps to do it. If a person is ill, he can take a sick-leave paid at the government's expense. Trade unions provide sanatoriums, health resorts, rest houses, summer camps. The aim of medical service is to achieve lower mortality rate. Exercise 5. Title each paragraph of the text "At the Doctor's". Exercise 6. Read the dialog and act it out with your fellow student.

Cold War Your body aches. You can't breathe. Your head feels as if it might explode. There's no denying it: you've got a cold. Winter is prime time for catching colds. Getting over a cold takes about a week. Luckily, there are steps you can take to keep from getting sick. Invasion of Viruses So how do you catch a cold? Believe it or not, says Dr. Joel Steinberg, a pediatrician, it's not caused by being cold, having wet feet or going outside with a wet head. Colds are caused by viruses, tiny germs too small to be seen by microscopes. Sneezing is one way cold viruses are spread. Air blasts out of our nose at about 100 miles an hour, producing thousands of airborne drops that land everywhere. If your hands touch anything those virus-infected drops land on, even doorknobs and pencils, watch out! Your hands can then ship those germs into your body through your mouth, nose or eyes. Prepare for Battle It's easy to catch germs. But there are some things you can do to protect yourself - and other people. Wash your hands frequently with soap and warm water to get rid of any germs you may pick up. Don't share drink glasses, even if your friend doesn't look sick. Cold symptoms sometimes take days to show up. Use a tissue when you sneeze, and be sure to throw it away. If you don't have a tissue, sneeze into your shoulder, not your hand. Eat lots of fruit and vegetables. This will keep your body strong and able to fight off any invading germs. Attack! But sometimes, no matter what you do, you still catch a cold. Viruses are weird. Medicine won't make them go away; the only thing that will is time. You can help your body fight the virus by getting plenty of rest. Use your energy to get better. Another energy booster is drinking lots of water and juice. This prevents your body from becoming dehydrated, which makes you ever more tired. If the symptoms get worse after three or four days, your illness may be more than cold -see a doctor. Some folks believe curing a cold means eating lots of food like chicken soup and drinking plenty of orange juice which contains vitamin C. These home remedies have never been scientifically proven to work. But no one ever said they were completely wrong either. Chicken soup soothes a sore throat. Orange juice-like lots of juices- keeps you from getting dehydrated and tired. Over-the-counter medications from the drugstore make you feel better too. But they don't make the cold go away. | ||||||||||||||
