Full transcript
Take a seat, Mr. Volkov — tell me exactly when this back pain started and what you were doing at the time, please.
Она началась около десяти дней назад, когда я поднимал тяжёлые коробки на складе в Бендиго.
On a scale of one to ten, how bad is the pain right now, and does it spread down your leg or cause any numbness?
Сейчас примерно семь из десяти. Боль отдаёт в левую ногу, но онемения нет.
I'll check your spine's movement and reflexes now, then we'll go through the results together carefully — this shouldn't take more than twenty minutes.
Хорошо. А рентген нужен, чтобы понять, что случилось со спиной?
You won't need an X-ray today unless we find warning signs like weakness, fever, or loss of bladder control during the exam.
Понятно. А что можно принимать от боли, пока это не пройдёт?
Paracetamol and ice for the first few days should help a lot, along with gentle stretching — please avoid heavy lifting for the next two weeks.
Хорошо, но моя работа на складе в Бендиго требует поднимать ящики каждый день. Мне нужна справка для работодателя?
I'll write you a medical certificate covering five days off lifting duties, and we'll review your progress again next Thursday at the clinic.
Спасибо большое, доктор. Буду отдыхать и приду в четверг на осмотр.

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.
