Gail: Oh!

哎呀!

Mike: Are you okay?

你還好嗎?

Gail: Yeah, I’m just not used to these crutches yet. The doctor said I should start using themif I ever want to get out of this wheelchair, but I don’t have the strength to stand up.

是啊，我只是不習(xí)慣使用這些拐杖。醫(yī)生說如果我想要從輪椅中出來，我就應(yīng)該開始使用拐杖。但我沒有站起來的力氣。

Mike: You’ll get the hang of it. Don’t lose heart.

你會掌握使用拐杖的竅門。不要灰心。

Gail: It should be easy now that my arm is out of the cast, but it just seems impossible. I feelI’m going to lose my balance each time I try to stand up.

我的胳膊從模子中拿出來應(yīng)該能容易些，但這似乎是不可能的。每一次我試圖站起來，我覺得我馬上會失去平衡。

Mike: Try again, and this time lean on me and I’ll try to serve as your legs until you can findyour balance.

再試試，這一次靠著我，我會輔助你，直到你找到平衡。

Gail: I wish I didn’t feel so utterly useless. It’s so frustrating!

我真希望自己不要這么沒用。它是如此令人沮喪!

Mike: I know. Just keep your eye on the ball and give it another try. The next thing you know,you’ll be limping along and then running a marathon. It’s just a matter of time before you getyour mobility back.

我知道。只要保持警覺，再試試。接下來的事情你知道的，你要會一瘸一拐的沿著擄走，來次耐力的考驗。找回靈活性只是一個時間的問題。

Gail: Yeah, right. Okay, first things first. Let’s see if these useless legs of mine will cooperatethis time.

是的，說得對。好吧，重要的事先做。讓我們來看看我的這些無用的腿這次能否能協(xié)調(diào)。
