A:( To himself )Today,there're so many people here. It looks like I'm in for a long wait. ( To the nurse )As it's so busy, will it be all right if I come back later?
B: No, you'd better wait, because the registration time is between 8 and 11 o'clock, and now it's almost 10:15.
A: Can I register now and see the doctor in the afternoon?
B: Yes ,you can, but if you don't wait, a lot of patients will be before you, and you won't be able to get the chance to see the doctor today. Besides, since you have a high temperature, the sooner you
see the doctor,the better.
A: I see. I'd better wait then. Can you tell me how to get to the Medical Department please?
B: Take the lift to the fourth floor, go through the double doors on your right, and go along the corridor until you see the Medical Department on your left.
A :Thanks a lot. By the way,what day is the consultant available?
B: Every Tuesday afternoon.
A: Oh, that's today. So I'm lucky.
