112.Helping Oneself
112.自救
Jenny headed for the health center as quickly as she could.
珍妮盡快向衛生院走去。
She had heard about how they could help people with food poisoning and she needed that help fast-her stomach was in great pain.
她聽說過他們能夠搶救食物中毒的人，而她正急需搶救——她的肚子痛得不得了。
It was from her new job in a restaurant. Jenny had answered an ad in the help-wanted section, they had hired her that day,
這事都怪她在一家餐館找了份新工作。 珍妮看到招工欄里有個廣告便去應聘，結果當天就被錄用了。
And now she was sick from the food she had helped herself to in the back room during her own lunch break!
午休的時候她在后屋偷吃了一些東西，沒想到就中毒了！
She kept running! After passing through the heavily forested park in the center of town, she fought through the crowds of the heavily populated city and crossed three streets of heavy traffic.
她一直跑啊跑。穿過市中心森林茂密的公園之后，她又從這座人口稠密的城市的人群中殺出一條路來，盡管街上車水馬龍，她還是過了三條街。
Finally she burst through the door and collapsed at the front counter.
最后到醫院時她從門口沖了進去，癱倒在前臺。
"Please wait in the waiting room!" the receptionist said, pointing to a door past an old heating unit.
"請在候診室等待！"接待員指著舊暖氣片旁邊的一扇門說。
"But I'm dying. Can't you help me out right now!" she asked.
"可我快不行了，你們不能現在就幫幫我嗎？"她問道。
"We hear that from every visitor. Please take a seat and wait your turn!"
"每個來看病的人都是這么說的。請你坐下來等著！"
Stumbling into the room Jenny sat down.
珍妮搖搖晃晃進屋坐下了。
After reading a poster on the wall about health education, Jenny rose to help herself-she just couldn't take the pain anymore.
看了墻上一個關于健康教育的廣告之后，珍妮起身自救起來——她實在是疼痛難忍。
She put her finger in her throat and vomited up the bad food the floor.
她把手指放到喉嚨里，把有毒的食物吐到了地板上。
Then things really heated up!
接著事情真的變嚴重了！
The receptionist came running out and a doctor rushed Jenny to one of the check-up rooms.
接待員跑了出來，一名大夫趕快把珍妮送到了一間檢查室。
"I heard from our receptionist that you couldn't wait for us, eh?" the doctor said as he started looking over Jenny.
"我從接待員那里聽說你等不及了，是嗎？"大夫一邊說，一邊開始上下打量珍妮。
"Yeah. Have you ever heard of an emergency? Now I'm fine, thank you!" Jenny stood up, wiped her face and walked out.
"是的。你們聽說過急癥嗎？我現在沒事了，謝謝您！"珍妮起身擦了擦臉，然后走了出來。
The receptionist had to clean up the mess!
殘局只好由接待員來收拾！
