ESL Podcast 435 – Describing Aches and Pains
时间:2019-02-03 作者:英语课 分类:地道美语播客
Nivia: Why are you walking funny?
Michael: Oh, I pulled a muscle in my right leg while playing with my kids last weekend. It’s hard to walk without feeling a twinge of pain.
Nivia: I’m sorry to hear that. Why are you sitting in that awkward position?
Michael: I strained my back while exercising. Initially 1, I felt a sharp pain and I thought it was something serious, but it doesn’t hurt much now. There’s just a dull pain when I sit up straight. That’s why I’m sitting like this, leaning to the side.
Nivia: That’s too bad. Why are you holding your arms that way?
Michael: I got up in the middle of the night last night to go to the bathroom and bumped into the door. I got a huge bruise 2 on my arm. It feels better if I hold it over my head.
Nivia: Why are you shaking your fingers that way?
Michael: I helped my daughter finish her science project for school. I – I mean we – glued over 100 wooden sticks together. My fingers are really sore and stiff, and they won’t stop throbbing 3.
Nivia: I’m afraid to ask you any more questions. I don’t think any man could survive any more injuries than what you already have!
