last night. Janet: No, I39。ve lost my appetite. I can39。t face any more Western food for a few days. Kate: I think you39。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, it39。s part of his job to keep an eye on your health. Why don39。t you make an appointment to see the doctor? Janet: But I39。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 depressed. But it39。s nothing. I39。ll be all right. Please! Don39。t worry about me. Kate: You poor thing! Why don39。t you make an appointment to see the doctor? She39。ll give you a checkup。 take your temperature and blood pressure, all the usual tests. Janet: Oh, I don39。t want to make a fuss. It39。s nothing. Kate: You39。re not making a fuss. I am! And I39。m ing with you. Conversation 2Doctor: What seems to be the problem? Janet: Well ... Kate: She hasn39。t been eating or sleeping properly. She fell asleep in the lecture this morning. Doctor: Hmm, and what did the lecturer think of that? Janet: Fortunately, he didn39。t see me. Doctor: OK, I39。m going to ask you a few questions. How39。s your social life? Janet: It39。s fine. I39。ve got some really nice friends. Doctor: Have you got a boyfriend? Janet: No. I don39。t think my parents would like me to have one while I39。m at university. Doctor: And are you eating properly? Janet: Yes, I think so. Kate: She says she39。s a bit fed up with Western food. Doctor: OK, so you39。d like some home fort ... what39。s your favorite food? Janet: Fried rice! Doctor: Not much fried rice for dinner in college, is there? Um, any worries about your work? Janet: No. Maybe. Yes, I suppose so. Doctor: Do you have an essay crisis? Janet: Yes! I haven39。t finished all the reading. I don39。t read as quickly as my friends, so it takes me a long time to write my essays. Doctor: OK, Janet. I want you to try and take a few days off. I39。ll have a word with your tutor and see if he can wait for your essay. Janet: OK. Doctor: If you39。re run down or depressed, you39。re more likely to catch a cold. Can you e back and see me next week? In the meantime, I suggest you try taking some... Unit 10 Conversation 1Janet: Hi! Mark: Hi! Kate: How are you? Mark: I39。m OK, thanks. How39。re you guys? Kate: Good. Mark: Good ... Oh, that traffic! It39。s getting worse and worse! Kate: Tell me about it, it39。s awful! Don39。t you worry about your health when you39。re cycling? All that pollution! Like, what are we breathing in? They really should do something about it! Mark: I think they intend to — or at least they keep talking about it. Janet: Shall we go inside? Mark: Yea.... Mark: You know, it sounds crazy, but it might be an idea to ban cars from the centre of the city. I nearly got hit by a crazy driver earlier. Kate: Are you OK? Mark: Yes, I39。m fine. Janet: Would they really do that — ban cars? Mark: It39。s possible. It39。d sort out the traffic problems. And it would reduce pollution. Janet: I don39。t think that would be very popular with drivers. Mark: But it would be safer for cyclists. Kate: Supposing they introduced a congestion charge? Mark: Like in London? Janet: Do you think it would stop people driving into Oxford? Mark: It39。d stop some people. Kate: They could always extend the Park and Ride scheme. Janet: It39。s a good idea. Kate: If people actually use it. Mark: Hey, I haven39。t told you, I39。m going to a meeting of the Environmental Action Group tonight. Kate: You are? Good for you! Mark: Yes, I39。m just concerned about the environment. I39。ve decided to get more active, believe it or not. Janet: I guess we all should. Kate: I know, you39。re right ... Excuse me ... Conversation 2Janet: By the way, Mark, how did your meeting go? Mark: Quite interesting, actually. Janet: So what did they talk about? Mark: Uh, recycling, mostly. They have this plan ... that everyone should write to the Council. Ask them to collect more rubbish. You know, like, all the plastic, which they don39。t do. I39。m going to write a letter this evening. Janet: Really? You know, I think I might go to the next meeting. I39。ve been meaning to do something ... get more active about the environment. Mark: Yes, we all need to. Global warming, ice caps melting, pollution. Doesn39。t it worry you? Janet: Yes, it39。s really frightening. Mark: Hey, it would be great if you came to the meeting, Janet. The Action Group really wants to make students more aware of what they can do to help. Janet: You know, I think everyone knows what they should do. But they don39。t do it — I don39。t do it. Mark: I39。m the same. Actually, there39。s something we could do right now. Janet: What? Mark: There39。s this poster they want to put up all over the university. It tells you easy ways of saving energy. I39。m looking at it, here, look ... Janet: Use less hot water ... Mark: They39。ve asked us to print it out and put it up in college. You want to help me? Janet: Sure! It might be an idea to ask Kate to help. Mark: Yes, let39。s ask her. But why don39。t we print it out — right now? Janet: Sure.
