“OK. You can put your tongue back now,” the doctor said. “It's clear what's wrong with you. You need more exercise. ”

   “But, doctor,” the man said,” I don't think…”

    “Don't tell me what you think,” the doctor said. “I am the doctor,　not you. I know what you need. I see　hundreds of people like you. None of them get any exercise. They sit in offices all day and in front of the TV　in the evening. What you need is to walk quickly for at least 20 minutes a day. ”

   “Doctor, you don't understand,”　the patient said. “I…”

   “I don't want to hear any excuses,”　the doctor said. “You must find time for exercise. If you　don't,　you will get fat and have health problems when you are older. ”

“But I walk every day,”　the patient said.

    “Ｏh,　yes,　and I know what kind of walking that is. You walk a few feet to the train station　from your house,　a few more feet from the station to your office,　and a few more feet from your　office to a restaurant for lunch and back. That is not real walking. I'm talking about a walk in the　park for twenty minutes every day. ”

“Ｗill you listen to me, doctor!” the patient shouted, getting angry with his doctor who thought he knew everything. “I'm a mailman,” the patient went on, “and I walk for seven hours every day! “For a moment the doctor was silent, then he said quietly , “Put your tongue out again, will you?”

Three travelers, Allan, Carl and Paul were sitting on the chairs in a train station. They were waiting for a train that was very late.
To pass the time, they began talking to each other.
At first, they talked about the weather and their work. Then Paul said, "Tell me—what would you most like to do if your doctor tell you that you have only three months to live?"
The other two men thought about this for a while, then Carl spoke.
“Well,” he said, “if I have only three months to live, I’ll take all my money out of the bank and go to foreign countries for holidays with my best friend, Erik. I'd like to travel to the places in the world as many as possible. And I'll stay at the best hotels and then eat the best food. I think I'll have a wonderful time.”
“That's very interesting.” Paul said.
With these words, he turned to the other man, saying, “And what about you?”
“I'll tell you a secret,” Allan said. “I always want to be a racing driver. So if I have only three months to live, the first thing I'd like to do is to sell my house. With the money I’ll buy the fastest car in the world. Maybe I can enter all the big motor races.”
Then he laughed, "I might even end up (以……而告終) world champion.”
“Now it's your turn,” Allan went on, “If your doctor tell you the bad news, what would you most like to do?”
“Oh,” said Paul with a smile. “I’ll go and see another doctor.”
