2. Read and translate the text: Medicine and Health

Good health is better than the best medicine.

And if your health is good, you are always in a good mood. If you want to be healthy you should go in for sports and keep yourself fit.

But if something is wrong with our health we must consult a doctor. A doctor is a man who looks after people who are ill. He gives them medical treatment.

People who are receiving medical treatment are called patients. If you don’t feel well you should consult a doctor. If you feel too ill to go to the doctor’s you will have to send for him.

The doctor asks you to describe to him the symptoms of your illness. He asks you to strip to the waist, listens to our heart and lungs, feels our pulse, takes the temperature and measures our blood pressure. Finally he will prescribe the treatment and write out the prescription. Doctor’s prescriptions are made up by the chemist.

But if the illness is serious you have to go to the hospital where they have all the

necessary equipment.

If our teeth need attention we have to go to the dentist. A dentist is a doctor who cares of people’s teeth.

When our eyes are ill we go to the oculist who will test our sight and write out a

prescription for glasses.

If we have a stomach-ache we have to go to the therapeutist.

The common illnesses are: a cough, a cold, a flu, a sore throat. Children often get measles, mumps, chicken pox, scarlet fever and whooping-cough. You may also have a toothache, a headache and a stomach ache.

Things used to prevent or cure illnesses are: medicine, pills, powders, injections,

bandages, antiseptics, tablets.

We can get them and other patient medicines at the chemist’s shop.
