DOCTOR: What seems to be the problem?
CATHY: Well, I have a bad cough and a sore throat. I also have 
a headache.
DOCTOR: How long have you had these symptoms?
CATHY: About three days now. And I’m really tired, too.
DOCTOR: Hmm. It sounds like you’ve got the flu. Take aspirin
every four hours and get plenty of rest. Make sure you 
drink lots of fluids. Call me if you’re still sick next week.
CATHY: OK, thanks

LANGUAGE NOTES 
• What seems to be the problem? means “What is the problem?” Notice that the intonation 
falls at the end of the question. The doctor wants information, not a “yes/no” answer.
• Well is used as an introductory word. Notice how the vowel is drawn out, to sound like 
“Weeeeeell …” This can be used as a way to “buy time” while you think about what you 
want to say next.
• A bad cough … a sore throat … a headache: Notice the article “a” before each symptom.
• About is used to mean “more or less.” It’s used here to give an estimate of time.
• Take aspirin … get rest … Make sure … Call me: Notice the doctor uses the simple tense 
here to give instructions. This is the imperative form of the verb.
• Still sick means “continue to be sick.”

3 The Silent Letters

给爸爸、妈妈的信！
爸爸、妈妈，你们好吗？我来中国三个月了。我能说汉语了，会写汉字了，还看了一本汉语书。你们听了高兴吗？北京今天下雨了，很冷。你们那儿怎么样呢？我们学校有一个汉语老师。同学们都很喜欢他。老师的家在学校前面。有时候，我们坐出租车去他家玩。他请我们喝茶、吃中国菜。他家的桌子、椅子都是中国风，很漂亮。我的朋友病了。昨天上午，我和他去了医院。医生说，现在天气很冷，你要多喝热水；多吃菜和水果；多睡觉。
我想睡觉了，爸爸妈妈晚安！
你们的女儿。

In this episode we are going to learn 【Weather】in Chinese. 
--------------------------------------------------
As a beginner, there're some vocabularies that you didn't learn before, and native speaker's speed seems too fast to understand. But don't worry, let's do it step by step. 
1st time: listen and catch the words you know already, have a guess about the content.
2nd time: look at the text to check if you guessed it right. 
3rd time: listen one more time, repeat after it.
4th time: practice until you can speak as the normal speed without looking at the text. 
--------------------------------------------------
