Well, what is your trouble?
I'm not feeling well, doctor. I have a sore throat.
Have you any aches and pains?
Yes, my back aches.
I'll take your temperature. How long have you been feeling ill?
It began the night before last.
You have a temperature, but it's nothing serious. It's probably just the flu. I'll give you a prescription. Take this to the chemist's. Take one tablet every four hours. You should stay in bed tomorrow, and drink plenty of lemon juice.
Lots of people are ill at the moment.
