[22:47.04]Dentist: Let me see. Open your mouth, please.
[22:52.00]Joe: Pull it out, please. Set a false tooth for me.
[22:54.38]Dentist: Your tooth is not so bad at all. Have you got some hot food recently?
[22:59.97]Joe: Yes. Why do you ask me such a question?
[23:03.26]Dentist: Your tooth is rotting away regularly. It just gets inflammation with too much hot food.
[23:09.27]Joe: You mean you won' t pull it out?
[23:11.75]Dentist: No, indeed I will prescribe some medicine for you. And you shouldn't eat hot food from now on.
[23:18.00]Joe: Sooner or later it will rot away. The sooner, the better.
[23:23.01]Dentist: But the root is quite stable at present. If we pull it now, your teethridge will be damaged.
[23:31.79]Joe: But how about the pain now?.
[23:32.86]Dentist: I'll give you some gargle. When it is rotten, you may come again.
[23:37.74]Joe: Thank you.

[25:16.30]B: So you need some injections, but you should pass the skin test.
[25:20.77]A: I've passed the skin test.
[25:23.20]B: Now you can take my prescription to take the injection in the next room.
[25:29.50](Mary is in a hospital.)
[25:31.09]Doctor: What's wrong with you?
[25:33.41]Mary: I've got a fever. Last night my mother took the temperature for me. It's 39.7.
[25:41.80]Doctor: Yes, you must take some medicine.
[25:45.22]Mary: Do you have some magic tablets? I have an exam to pass tomorrow.
[25:50.86]Doctor: In such an emergency, you need injections.
[25:53.63]Mary: I prefer that.

[26:30.81]Can humans get rid of cancer?
[26:33.24]A: Do you understand why more and more people suffer from cancer?
[26:39.66]B: It's too complicated to explain briefly.
[26:42.74]A: And do you believe human being can get rid of it?
[26:46.01]B:I believe that, but that will be a long way to go.
[26:50.71](Tom is reading a newspaper in dorm while John is listening to the radio.)
[26:58.47]Tom: Say, Paul Nurse won the 2001 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine.
[27:06.65]John: What did he do?
[27:11.14]Tom: The story goes like that he and two other experts got it for groundbreaking research
[27:16.78]that could help find a cure for cancer.
[27:18.69]John: If that's true, he deserves that, you know, cancer is still one of the biggest killers in the developed world.
[27:30.21]Tom: I just can' t understand why more and more people suffer from cancer.
[27:34.28]John: I have no idea either. But there is another article says 15,000 cancer deaths
[27:43.48]in the United States might have been caused
[27:46.06]by radioactive fallout from Cold War nuclear weapons testing.
[27:50.04]Tom: Yes, I heard that cancer patients in Iraq increased dramatically after the Gulf War,
[27:57.82]for they were hit by depleted uranium bombs.
[28:02.26]John: Anyhow, now we may cure cancer. We don' t need to worry about it any more.
[28:09.37]Tom: No, there is no magic tablet at all.
[28:13.26]Patti says scientists are winning the fight against cancer but it is a long,
[28:19.95]slow process and the disease that kills about six million people each year may never be eliminated.
[28:26.89]John: So we should eliminate war first, and then we will have the hope to eliminate cancer.

[28:42.28]Many guys are blind about careless sex.
[28:44.08]They will sooner or later get what they deserve.
[28:47.24]A: Do you know what happened to Joe?
[28:51.71]B: I'm afraid I haven't heard of him for a long time.
[28:55.55]A: He got AIDS.
[28:58.21]B: He should have it coming on him. He's been too loose.
[29:02.08](Peter and Mars are talking in their dormitory.)
[29:09.42]Peter: Do you know what happened to Joe?
[29:12.69]Mare: I'm afraid I don' t know.
[29:14.88]Peter: He got AIDS from too many affairs.
[29:18.09]Mars: He should have it coming on him. He's been too loose.

[29:30.24]Peter: According to "the Time", cases of AIDS are on increase.

[29:40.66]Peter: I think the government should do something.
[29:44.11]Mare: Yes. But actually the American government has been making every effort to stop them from
[29:50.15]Peter: Then who should be responsible for the spreading of AIDS?
[29:55.08]Mars: We may take it as a social disease, and it can only be cured by society.
