One morning, Bill said he was ill. His mother called a taxi and took him to the doctor. The doctor asked Bill, “What’s the matter, young man?” Bill answered, “I’m feeling sick. I’m coughing(咳嗽) and having a headache(头痛). I won’t be able to go to school today, I’m afraid.” The doctor looked him over carefully, and then asked his mother, “What did he have for breakfast?” His mother said, “He had four pieces of dread, two eggs, a bottle of milk and an orange.” The doctor smiled, “Don’t worry. It’s nothing serious. The boy will be all right after the football match.” The mother said, “I don’t understand, Doctor.” The doctor smiled again,” This afternoon, the biggest football game of the year will be on TV. Your boy doesn’t want to miss it. I think he will be fine after the game. You wait and see.”
