Read the conversation. What's the matter with Helen?
Doctor: Take a seat, Helen. How are you feeling?
Helen: Not good ... I have a runny nose and a fever.
Doctor: Let me take your temperature ... Oh, it's quite high.
Helen: Yes, it started yesterday. I felt so cold, and I didn't
have much energy. When I tried to get out of bed, I
almost fell and hurt myself. My throat hurts too.
Doctor: Let's see. Yes, the back of your throat looks very red.
We'll need to do a test, but I believe you have the flu.
It's flu season.
So Helen has the flu.

Helen: What should I do, Doctor?
Doctor: You should take some medicine and drink enough water.
Helen: OK, thank you. Can I go to school tomorrow?
Doctor: No, you should rest at home. When you're outside,
please wear a mask. It stops us from passing the flu virus
to others easily.
Helen: I will!
Doctor: And remember, your health is in your hands. If you take
good care of yourself, you'll get better soon.

Doctors can help, but we must also take action ourselves to stay healthy.
Further Thinking
At the end of the conversation, the doctor says “your health is in your hands”. What do you think it means?
We are responsible for taking care of our own health.
Our daily choices, like eating well and resting, affect how healthy we are.
We can do things to prevent illness, such as wearing a mask and washing hands.
...
Give an example of how you have taken responsibility for your own health!
Listen to the conversation. Then role-play it.
While listening, you should focus on how they speak:
Notice their tone (e.g. friendly, encouraging, unsure.).
Identify their emotions (e.g. excitement, hesitation, confidence).
Pay attention to pauses and emphasis on certain words.
