A doctor’s advice

A doctor was much annoyed by his patient’s habit to stop him in the street and ask his medical advice free of charge. At last he decided to put a stop to this practice.

One day a patient stopped him and exclaimed, “Oh, doctor, I’m so glad to see you; I have such a severe pain in my side”.

The doctor showed great concern and said: “Shut your eyes; now show me your tongue”. Then he went away, leaving his patient standing in the street with his tongue out.

to annoy – надоедать;

free of charge – бесплатно;

i’ve such a severe pain – у меня такая ужасная боль;

to show great concern – проявлять большое участие.
