Full transcript
Can you tell me exactly when your chest pain started, how it felt, and whether it spread to your arm, neck or jaw? Did you also feel short of breath?
上個禮拜四朝早返緊工嗰陣,忽然間胸口好似俾人揸住咁痛,痛去到手臂同下巴度,仲有啲攰同出汗添。
Have you been using your GTN spray during these episodes at home, and did it help ease the pain reasonably quickly each time?
有噴,通常噴一兩下,大概五分鐘左右就冇咁辛苦,不過每次都幾驚。
How many episodes have you had this week, and roughly how long did each one last before the discomfort finally settled down?
呢個禮拜發咗兩次,每次都係差唔多十分鐘先慢慢冇咁痛。
I'd like to refer you urgently to the cardiology unit at Bankstown-Lidcombe Hospital for a treadmill stress test sometime next week.
好呀,不過如果排唔到咁快嘅期,係咪要即刻去急症室?
If the pain doesn't ease within about ten minutes after two sprays of your GTN, please call triple zero immediately without delay.
明白喇,如果係咁我實會即刻打電話嘅,唔會等。
Let's book your stress test for next Wednesday morning at nine, and we'll review your medication dosage straight afterwards together.
好,多謝醫生,我星期三朝早會準時到,唔該晒。
Terms in this dialogue that cost marks
CCL is marked on information transferred. These Australian terms have no direct word in most test languages — get one wrong and the segment's information is gone.
- triple zero講「000」（讀做「零零零」）或者講「Triple Zero」都得，數字保持西方數字格式。
Practise it
Reading a transcript is not interpreting. The free daily dialogue on this site plays each segment at native speed, records you, and marks the information you transferred against the same categories examiners use — omissions, distortions, insertions — so you know where the marks went.
