北師大版高中英語模塊8--Unit 23 Lesson1-4

[00:01.98]C I got a phone call from the chief nurse, [00:06.06]saying,"You've got a patient there [00:07.79]that is going to get an award. [00:09.64]Make sure that the ward looks good." [00:12.02]This really turned me off to begin with:" [00:14.20]"Let's clean up the ward [00:15.56]because we've got VIPS coming in." [00:18.18]Well,the VIPs happened to be the general [00:20.94]of the 25th Infantry Division [00:23.40]and an entourage of about twelve people. [00:26.10]This was this patient's second visit to us, [00:28.67]this time with both his legs blown off- [00:31.26]he was all of about twenty years old. [00:33.94]When he was waking up from his anesthesia [00:36.30]he whispered:" [00:37.62]Don't you remember me,ma'am?" I said, [00:39.42]"Oh yeah!"But really I didn't [00:43.05]because there were so many of them. [00:45.04]The entourage was coming to give him the award [00:47.34]because he happened to be number twenty [00:49.05]thousand to come through this hospital. [00:51.55]They had this little ceremony, [00:53.43]gave him a Purple Heart and a watch. [00:55.88]As the general handed him the watch, [00:57.79]"from the 25th Infantry Division, [00:59.65]as a token of our appreciation," [01:02.28]the kid more or less flung the watch back at him [01:05.46]He said something like, [01:06.56]"I can't accept this sir; [01:08.17]it's not going to help me walk." [01:10.57]After this little incident, [01:11.81]I went over and just put my arms around him [01:14.55]and hugged him. [01:14.55]
