Full transcript
Thanks for coming back, Mr. Rostami. How has your mood been since we increased your sertraline dose three weeks ago at the last review?
ممنون دکتر، راستش یککم بهتر شدم، ولی هنوز خیلی خستهام و بعضی صبحها اصلاً نمیتونم از تخت بلند بشم.
Are you eating regularly, sleeping any better, and have you had any thoughts of hurting yourself or feeling life isn't worth living?
نه دکتر، خدا رو شکر همچین فکری ندارم. غذا هم تقریباً عادی میخورم، ولی بعضی وقتها احساس ناامیدی میکنم و خوابم هم خیلی بینظمه.
That's good to hear, Mr. Rostami. I'd like to set up a Mental Health Care Plan so Medicare can subsidise sessions with a psychologist at headspace Bankstown.
چقدر هزینه داره؟ چون اگه گرون باشه، نمیتونم هر هفته برم اونجا.
Under Medicare, this plan covers up to ten sessions each calendar year, and the psychologist bulk-bills, so you won't pay anything out of pocket.
عالیه، خیلی ممنون. پس کِی میتونم اولین قرار ملاقاتم رو بگیرم؟
The clinic has an opening next Thursday afternoon at two o'clock; I'll send the referral today and they will call to confirm.
ممنون دکتر. ولی اگه قبل از پنجشنبه حالم بدتر شد، باید چیکار کنم؟
If you ever feel unsafe or have thoughts of harming yourself, please don't wait for the appointment — call Lifeline on 13 11 14, any time, day or night.
باشه دکتر، حتماً یادم میمونه. ممنون که همه چیز رو اینقدر واضح توضیح دادید، خیالم خیلی راحتتر شد.
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.
- mental health care planبگویید «برنامه مراقبت سلامت روان» یا در صورت نیاز به وضوح بیشتر «طرح درمانی سلامت روان از طریق پزشک عمومی».
- medicareهمان کلمه انگلیسی «Medicare» را بدون ترجمه بگویید، چون یک نام رسمی است.
- out of pocketبگویید «هزینهای که از جیب خود پرداخت میشود» یا «هزینه شخصی باقیمانده».
- lifelineهمان نام «Lifeline» را به انگلیسی بگویید، چون نام رسمی سازمان است.
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.
