   初到美国,去医院看病令人发怵,不仅不熟悉这里的规章制度,语言也是问题,医学上的词语也让人颇感陌生。


  一次,我患尿路感染,去看医生,想要个处方,医生不给,还说:“I have no culture。”我想,处方与“文化”有什么关系,怎么搞的那么复杂。
  回家我闷闷不乐,丈夫问我怎么了,我说了一遍,丈夫哈哈大笑说:“医生说他没有尿样病菌培养检验结果,不能先给处方。”我这才明白“culture“是在这里的意思!
  culture:[C] (biology 生) group of bacteria grown for medical or scientific study <http://www.hxen.com/> 培养的细菌:
  * a culture of cholera 1 germs 培养出的霍乱菌.
