B: O.K.
A: Let me see here. Your eyes and ears look fine. Take a deep breath, please. Do you smoke, Mr. Smith?

Part Four: Monologue
Carl’s Note:
Americans often go to their doctor and dentists when they are not sick. They hope to prevent being sick by having their teeth cleaned and their health checked. Therefore, they see the doctor and dentist for check-ups. Doctors check their breathing, heartbeat, ears, eyes, and throat, their weight, take samples of patient’s fluids to run tests, and look for signs of more serious illnesses. Dentists clean a patient’s teeth, and take x-rays to see if any teeth are going bad. More and more, Americans and the people who take care of their health are practicing this kind of preventive medicine.
卡爾的話：
美國人在身體健全的時候也經常去看醫生或者看牙醫。他們希望通過清潔牙齒和檢查身體來預防疾病。因此，他們會找醫生或者牙醫進行檢查。醫生通常會檢查他們的呼吸情況、心跳、耳朵、眼睛和咽喉，還會測量體重、取病人的尿樣進行檢測，同時還會查詢可能患嚴重疾病的徵兆。牙醫則會幫助清潔病人牙齒，並且用鐳射檢測是否有壞牙。越來越多的美國人和關心自己健康的人正加入這種預防醫學的行列。

Part Four: Monologue
Carl’s Note:
Since it is played on ice, ice hockey is popular in Canada and the northern parts of the United States. It is a lot like soccer, but because it is played on ice skates and on a smaller playing area, it is much faster and more violent. For example, it is legal to force another player into the wall of the ice rink. This is called checking. The offense uses a stick with a flat blade one end to try to put a small, hard, rubber disk, called the puck, into the defense’s net. Professional hockey players can shoot the puck at over 100 miles per hour, so the goalies have to wear heavy pads and a hard plastic mask to prevent injuries. Hockey is a very exciting game to watch and play.
卡爾的話：
冰球在冰上舉行，因而它在加拿大和美國的北部地方非常受歡迎。它和足球又很多相似之處，但是由於是穿冰鞋進行而且場地範圍更小，因此冰球***運動***速度更快也更為暴力。比如說，把對方球員逼入冰場的牆根是不犯規的，這就是稱之為“阻擋”。進攻的一方使用一根一端為扁平擊球板的棍子將一個橡膠制圓盤擊入防守隊員的網內，這個圓盤形狀小，質地較硬，叫做“冰球”。職業的冰球手擊球的速度達到每小時100英里，所以守門員必須身著沉重的襯墊、戴著硬塑膠的面具來避免受傷。冰球是一項供觀賞和參與的非常刺激的運動。

Part Four: Monologue
“Sexually transmitted disease, or STD, is a serious social problem facing the world today. Fortunately, education can do a lot to control this problem. Education is particularly important for diseases such as AIDS and herpes, for which no cure exists. We must educate our society’s sexually active citizens to prevent the spread of these diseases. At the very least, we should make it clear that the use of a condom during sex will keep people from getting these diseases. We should also try to calm people’s fears. For example, we must make it clear they cannot get AIDS by doing certain things, such as kissing or sharing a meal. We cannot guarantee that people will listen, but the effort must be made to let them know what the dangers are, and how to prevent them.”
——Dr. Anne Motts U.S. Center for Disease Control
性傳染疾病或者稱之為STD，是當今世介面臨的嚴重的社會問題。幸運的是，教育能在很大程度上對其進行控制。對於象艾滋病、皰疹這樣的至今沒有藥物醫治的疾病來說，教育尤為重要。我們必須教育社會中進行性接觸的市民對這些疾病進行預防。至少，我們能夠告知其明白在性行為過程中戴安全套可以防止感染疾病。我們也應該盡力消除市民的恐懼心理。比如說，我們必須使他們明白接吻或者共餐等特定活動並不會感染艾滋病。我們無法保證人人會聽，但是付出一定努力告知他們什麼是危險以及如何避免這種危險卻是必要的。
