WHAT’S THE MATTER?

Dr. James: Hello, children. You don’t look very well. What’s the matter?

Alice: Hi, Dr. James. I feel sick. I have a stomachache.

Dr. James: Do you eat a lot of cookies?

Alice: Yes, I eat them every day. I eat lots of cookies.

Dr. James: Well, you shouldn’t! Here, take this medicine. You should drink some water and stay home.

Alice: Thank you, Doctor.

Dr. James: OK, Joe! What’s the matter with you?

Joe: I have a terrible headache.

Dr. James: Hmm… Do you play football?

Joe: Yes. I play football five days a week.

Dr. James: When do you play football?

Joe: I usually play in the afternoon.

Dr. James: Oh, no! You shouldn’t play football at that time. The sun can make you sick. OK!
Go home and rest. Don’t play football for two days, and you’ll be fine.

Joe: Thank you so much, Dr. James.
