H: Harry M: Mina
Harry notices that Mina looks tired and asks her what’s wrong.
H: Hey, Mina. You look a bit tired today. Is everything OK?
M: Hey, Harry. I’ve just been feeling exhausted lately. I’m having a hard time focusing on my work.
H: That doesn’t sound like you. Have you been sleeping well?
M: Not really. I’ve been waking up with headaches, and my nose has been really stuffy lately. I think it’s allergies.
H: Allergies? Has this happened before?
M: Yeah, they hit me every spring. The shift from winter to spring always messes with my body. It’s probably the pollen and sudden temperature changes.
H: That makes sense. Seasonal changes can really bother people. Have you tried anything to help?
M: I’ve been taking some medicine, but it makes me really drowsy.
哈利注意到米娜看起來很疲憊，便問她怎麼了。
哈 利： 嗨，米娜。妳今天看起來有點累。妳還好嗎？
米 娜： 嗨，哈利。我只是最近感覺特別疲憊。我很難集中注意力在工作上。
哈 利： 這聽起來不太像妳。妳睡得好嗎？
米 娜： 不太好。我常常醒來頭痛，最近也一直鼻塞。我覺得是過敏。
哈 利： 過敏？以前有過這種情況嗎？
米 娜： 有啊，每年春天都會這樣。冬春的交替總是讓我的身體不舒服。可能是花粉和氣溫驟變造成的。
哈 利： 有道理。季節變化確實會讓人很不舒服。妳試過什麼緩解方法嗎？
米 娜： 我有吃一些藥，但是吃了之後會很睏。
