STEVE: I need help. I think my arm is broken.
KELLY: Alright. Have you been to this hospital before?
STEVE: No, I haven't. I need help quick. It hurts really badly.
KELLY: I understand. It's good you came to the emergency room.
STEVE: Let me see a doctor.
KELLY: I'm sorry, sir. You will need to wait at least a short time.
We are very busy tonight. There was a big car accident on Highway 106.
STEVE: I thought this was the emergency room.
KELLY: It is. But unless you are critically injured, you still need to wait.
You aren't bleeding, are you?
STEVE: No. Only a little. I fell off my porch.
KELLY: Oh, that's terrible. Is it your right arm or your left arm?
STEVE: My left arm.
KELLY: Can you fill out this form then?
STEVE: No, I can't. I'm left-handed.
KELLY: That's very inconvenient for you then.
You'll probably have a cast on your left arm.
STEVE: Yes. But why do I have to fill out a form anyway?
This is the emergency room.
KELLY: Yes, it is. But even in emergency rooms there is some paperwork to be done.
Have you ever been in an emergency room before?
STEVE: No. Just let me see a doctor. I'm worried about my arm.
KELLY: Be brave, sir. It won't be long.
I will fill out the form for you. What is your name?
STEVE: Steve Schliessman. S C H L I E S S M A N.
KELLY: Alright Steve. Your social security number?
STEVE: 349-95-8821.
KELLY: Do you have medical insurance?
STEVE: Yes, I do. Blue Cross.
KELLY: Do you have your insurance card with you?
STEVE: No, I don't.
KELLY: Well, you can call it in later. You can phone us.
STEVE: Can I sit down now?
KELLY: First I need to get your address. Try to move your arm as little as possible.

你没在流血吧？
史提夫：还好，只有一点。我从门廊上跌下来。
凯莉：真是糟糕。伤到右手臂还是左手臂？
史提夫：左手臂
凯莉：那么你可以填一下表格吗？
史提夫：不行，我是左撇子
凯莉：那么对你而言很不方便。
你的左手臂可能要上石膏。
史提夫：是的，但是为什么还要填表格？
这是急诊。
凯莉：没错。即使是急诊，还是有些书面工作要完成。
你以前挂过急诊吗？
史提夫：没有。快让我看医生，我很担心我的手臂。
