Full transcript
Thank you for coming in today. Can you tell me what's been happening lately, and how long you've really been feeling this level of distress?
Je to hrozné, cítím se pořád smutný a bez energie. Trvá to už asi šest týdnů, od chvíle, kdy jsem přišel o práci v továrně.
Could you tell me how many hours you're sleeping each night, and whether your appetite has changed since this began?
Spím možná tak tři hodiny za noc a vůbec nemám chuť k jídlu, takže jsem hodně zhubl.
Do you have any family or friends here in Australia, or are you linked with a support service such as Barwon Health in Geelong?
Nemám tady žádnou rodinu, manželka zůstala v České republice. O Barwon Health jsem nikdy neslyšel.
I need to ask directly — have you had any thoughts of harming yourself, even if you don't plan to act on them?
Ne, takové myšlenky nemám, ale někdy mám pocit, že to nemá smysl a že se to nikdy nezlepší.
I'd like to refer you for six free counselling sessions under a Mental Health Care Plan, which your GP can set up this week.
To zní dobře, ale bude to hodně stát? A kdy bych mohl začít, protože teď nemám moc peněz?
There's no cost to you if you're bulk-billed, and I can book your first appointment for next Thursday afternoon at three o'clock.
Dobře, děkuji moc. Přijdu tedy příští čtvrtek ve tři hodiny odpoledne.
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.
- counselling sessionsPřeložit jako 'poradenská sezení' nebo 'terapeutická sezení'.
- mental health care planPřeložit jako „plán péče o duševní zdraví“ a případně vysvětlit, že ho vystavuje praktický lékař pro přístup k dotovaným terapiím.
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.
