Mr. Black works in an office. He’s very busy and has no time to have a good rest. Every evening, when he comes back from his office, he’s always tired and wants to go to bed early. But his wife often has a lot of interesting things to tell him after supper. She doesn’t stop talking until she falls asleep, but it’s usually too late and Mr. Black has to get up in the morning when she is asleep.

One day the man felt terrible and couldn’t go to work. He decided to go to see a doctor. And Mrs. Black went to the hospital with him. Before her husband said what was the matter with him, the woman had told the doctor all and the man understood why. The doctor wrote a prescription (处方). And when Mrs. Black brought the medicine to the consulting room (诊疗室), the doctor said to her, “The bottle of medicine is for your husband and the pills are for you.”

“For me?” the woman said in surprise, “I’m fine. I don’t need medicine!”

“I don’t think so, madam,” said the doctor, “They are sleeping pills. Your husband will soon be all right if you take them.”
