Task 4
Joan comes from Britain and is going to stay in China for half a year. She often suffers from high blood pressure. So she’s very concerned about first aid services in China. Now she’s asking her Chinese friend, Xiao Yang, about it. Listen to the dialogue and then read after the recording.
琼来自英国,将在中国呆半年。她经常受到高血压的困扰,所以她对于中国的急救服务很关心。她正向她的朋友小杨询问这方面的情况。先听,然后跟着录音朗读这段对话。
Joan: Xiao yang, what should I do if I come across some serious medical emergencies in Beijing?
Xiao Yang: You can call 120. They will reach you in a very short time, give you first aid, and send you to hospital, if necessary.
Joan: What if I’m in a distant place? Can they reach me, too?
Xiao Yang: Well, it’s not very easy sometimes. But they have helicopters in distant areas.
Joan: Sounds not bad. Is it open 24 hours?
Xiao Yang: Sure it is.
Joan: Great. What’s the number again?
Xiao Yang: That’s 120. And don’t forget to tell the operator the symptoms of the patient, where your are and also your contact phone number.
Joan: Yes, I know. And I guess I may also call a taxi or ask for help from passers-by in emergencies.
Xiao Yang: You’re right. They will certainly be ready to send you to the nearest hospital.
