At the pediatrician’s.

Doctor (D) : Now, Debbie, can I have a look at you to find out where your bad cough (сильный кашель) is coming from?

Patient (P): (Nods) (кивает)

D: Would you like to stay sitting on Mom’s knee?

P: (Nods).

D: That’s fine. Now let’s ask Mum to take off your jumper and blouse. You won’t be cold in here. (Mother removes Debbie’s clothes). Now I’m going to put this thing on your chest. It’s called a stethoscope. It might be a bit cold. OK? First of all, I listen to your front and then your back.

Mother (M): Debbie, just breathe in and breathe out.

D: Good, well done. Now I’d like to see your tummy (животик), so, will you lie on the bed for a minute?

P: OK.

D: Now while you’re lying there, I’ll feel your neck and under your arms. Are you tickly (щекотно)? Now the top of your legs. Mrs. Thompson, could Debbie sit on your knee again? I’d like you to hold her there while I examine the ears and throat. Right, Debbie. Here’s a little light to look in your ears. This will tickle a bit but won’t be sore (больно). Good girl. What a nice ear. Now let’s see the other one. Now open your mouth. Let me see your teeth. Now open it as wide as you can. Good. Could you come and stand over here and I’ll measure you? Stand straight. That’s fine. Have you ever been in a weighing machine? Just stand up here and we’ll see how heavy you are. Well, we’re all finished now. You’ve been very good. I’ll have a talk with your Mum and you can play with the toys for a minute.
