首先打聽對方昨天沒來上班或上課，可以問

　　Why weren't you at work yesterday?

　　What reason do you have for missing school?

　　病人做楚楚可憐狀，甩出一句虛弱的

　　I wasn't really feeling well.

　　I was sick.

　　惻隱之心一旦被激發，你一定會追問

　　What was wrong with you?

　　What was your problem?

　　世間的病何止千百種，更何況還有些難以啟齒，最保險的“病”就是

　　have a cold, headache, stomachache

　　讓你的同情心泛濫得更猛烈些吧

　　Are you feeling any better?

　　Do you want anything to make you feel better?

　　生病的有臺階趕緊下吧

　　還不舒服就說I'm still feeling under the weather.

　　沒問題了就說I'm OK now.

　　什么叫好人做到底？

　　I hope you feel better.

　　Get better.

　　生病的，趕緊的，該換感激涕零狀了

　　I'd appreciate that！

　　Thanks a lot！
