Full transcript
Good afternoon. I have your results here. Your blood pressure readings over the past month are still higher than we would like to see.
医生你好。我在家也量了，早上一般是一百五左右，晚上会低一点。我最近工作压力比较大。
Stress can certainly play a part. Have you been taking the medication every morning as we discussed, and have you noticed any side effects?
药我基本没断过，就是偶尔会觉得有点头晕，特别是站起来太快的时候。这正常吗？
Mild dizziness can happen. I will adjust your dose slightly, and I want you to keep a record of your readings twice a day.
好的。饮食方面我需要注意什么？我平时口味比较重，喜欢吃咸的东西。
Reducing salt is one of the most effective changes. Also try to walk for thirty minutes a day, five days a week if you can.
走路应该没问题。对了，我父亲有心脏病史，我需要做进一步的检查吗？
Family history is relevant. I will order a blood test and a heart check, and we will review everything together at your next visit.
那检查结果出来大概要多久？需要我空腹过来抽血吗？
Yes, please fast from midnight before the blood test. The results usually come back within a week, and the clinic will call you.
好的，我这周五早上过来。谢谢医生，我会按时吃药、少吃盐、多走路的。

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.
