At the clinic
Doctor: Oh my, Timmy. You have a bad cut on your leg. How did this happen?
Timmy: I was riding my new bike that Mommy and Daddy got me for my birthday!
Doctor: Oh. Now this may hurt a little, so I want you to be strong, OK?
Timmy: OK. What are you gonna do?
Doctor: Well, your cut is deep. I need to put a thread through the skin to keep it together.
Timmy: Can I ride my bike when I get home?
Doctor: Sorry. No riding for one week.

在诊所
医生：天啊，提米。你腿上的伤口好严重。发生什么事了？
提米：我在骑我的新脚踏车，那是爸妈给我的生日礼物！
医生：喔。接下来这个可能会有点痛，我希望你要勇敢，好吗？
提米：好。你要干嘛？
医生：呃，你的伤口很深。我需要用一条线把皮肤合起来。
提米：我回到家还可以骑脚踏车吗？
医生：抱歉。一个星期不可以骑脚踏车。
