Clerk: Good afternoon, Ma'am. What can I do for you?
Shirley: Good afternoon. My son's sight seems to have deteriorated 2 these days. What should I do?
Clerk: Do you know the cause? Is it because of eyestrain? You know kids have a lot of stuff to study these days. Some teachers even ask little children to read Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Shirley: I don't think it's studying. My son is constantly playing video and computer games. He is a bit rebellious 3.
Clerk: It's just the little boy's nature. Don't worry about it. Let's have his eyes tested first.
Shirley: Where can I get that done?
Clerk: Go to the second floor and it's the third room on the left. Go there and you can get everything done.
Shirley: Got it. Thank you. See you later.
(Shirley walks downstairs after the eye examination.)
Clerk: How is it going? What did the report say?
Shirley: It says that it's just pseudomyopia, so my son's sight can be corrected.
Clerk: Good for him. But still, don't forget to take some preventive measures.
Shirley: Thanks. I will. I shouldn't just leave him to himself. And I should limit his hours for video and computer games.
Clerk: Yeah. Studying for a long time can also cause eyestrain. Make him do some eye exercises after studying, which would be really good for his sight.
Shirley: Good idea. Do you have any other suggestions?
Clerk: We have a variety of eye drops for tired eyes. Would you like one?
Shirley: Sure, I'd like one for children. Is this one OK?
Clerk: Yeah, you just picked up the one I was going to recommend. Good choice! Here is a free eye chart for you, so you can have regular eye examinations at home.

店员: 下午好，女士。有什么能为您效劳呢？
雪莉: 下午好。我儿子的视力最近好像下降了。我该怎么办？
店员: 您知道原因吗？是因为用眼疲劳吗？您知道现在的孩子们要学习很多的东西。有的老师甚至叫小孩子去读《三国演义》。
雪莉: 我觉得不是因为学习。我儿子经常玩电动游戏和电脑游戏。他有点叛逆。
店员: 这是男孩子的天性。别担心。我们先给他做个视力检查吧。
雪莉: 去哪里做呢？
店员: 上二楼，左边第三个房间就是。您去那里就可以了。
雪莉: 知道了。谢谢你。待会儿见。
（视力检查完后，雪莉下楼来。）
店员: 怎么样？报告结果怎么说？
雪莉: 报告说只是假性近视，所以我儿子的视力可以被矫正。
店员: 真替他高兴。不过，别忘了采取一些保护措施啊。
雪莉: 谢谢。我会的。我不该再由着他了。我要限制他玩电动游戏和电脑游戏的时间。
店员: 是啊。长时间的学习也很容易引起眼睛疲劳。让他在学习完之后，做一下眼保健操，这对他的视力很有好处。
雪莉: 好主意。您还有别的建议吗？
店员: 我们这里有很多保护眼睛疲劳的眼药水。你想来一盒吗？
雪莉: 行啊。要一盒儿童专用的。这盒可以吗？
店员: 可以，您挑中了我刚好想要推荐的一款。不错的选择！这张免费的视力表给您，这样您在家也可以自己做视力检查了。
经典背诵 Recitation
Shirley: I took my son Daniel to a glass store for eye examination today. I told the clerk that Daniel's sight seemed to deteriorate 1 these days, for he had played a lot of video games and computer games. She told me where I could get my son's eye tested. Luckily, it was just a pseudomyopia, so my son's visual acuity 4 could be corrected. But still I thought I would have to pay more attention to Daniel's eyes protection.
