看诊闹乌龙!医生的建议与老人的康复之旅

Once an old man went to see a doctor. The doctor looked him over carefully and said, “Medicine won’t help you. You must have a good rest. Go to bed early, and drink milk. Walk a lot and smoke one cigar (雪茄烟) a day. Go to the country place for a month.”

After a month the man came to the doctor again. “How are you?” said the doctor. “I’m glad to see you again. You look much younger.” “Oh! Doctor. I feel quite well now,” said the man. “I had a good rest. I went to bed early, drank a glass of milk and walked a lot. Your advice certainly helped me, but smoking one cigar a day almost killed me first. It’s no joke to start smoking at my age!”
