今天我一学生生病了,远在美国念高中,倒着时差问我怎么请假,让我觉得哭笑不得。在外求学诸多不易,遇到生病的情况,若是心有余而力不足,肯定最是难受。
所以呢,我为了给广大少男少女解决这一问题,列出了一系列大家可以用上的表达,下次不要只会说I don’t feel good其他一问三不知啦。
(以下表达中Before是大家常用的,After是我改进过的。)
1.如果你的朋友生病了或者气色不好,可以这样询问:
Before: How are you? Are yousick?
After:How are you feeling?You look terrible (you look so pale)! Is everything alright?
2.感觉糟透了

After:I feel horrible.
3.发烧
