Common Problems



Describing Pain


我们使用不同的词汇描述身体上不同部位的不适感:


1. Ache

Ache用来描述不那么强烈且持续不断的疼痛感,通常用来描述身体具体某个部位。

I've got a headache (头痛).

My dad suffers from backache (背痛).

Bart's got stomachache (胃痛).

除此之外,还有:

earache (耳朵痛)

toothache (牙痛)

Ache还能用作动词,表示某部位遭受了一段时间的疼痛:

By the end of the day my feet were aching.


2. Pain

身体上其他部位不那么强烈的疼痛感可以使用pain来进行描述。

I've got a pain in my shoulder.


3. Hurt

Hurt用来描述强烈的、突如其来的疼痛。

My throat hurts when I speak.

I hit my leg on the table and it really hurts.

除此之外,我们还用各种各样的不适感和痛感:

throb:抽痛、阵痛

sting:刺痛

cramp:痉挛、绞痛


Serious Illness


For serious illnesses (严重疾病), you will probably go into hospital (住院). A person who stays in hospital is called a patient (病人). Many patients need an operation (手术) [when special doctors, called surgeons (外科医生), cut into the body for medical reasons; also called surgery (外科手术)].

我们身体中最容易患有重大疾病的部位有:

Lung cancer (肺癌) can be caused by smoking.

Heart attacks (心肌梗塞) can happen very suddenly.

Hepatitis (肝炎) is a disease affecting the liver.

注意:disease和illness都指疾病。但是disease通常指比较严重的,并且涉及到身体具体某一部位的疾病,如:heart disease心脏病。而illness更多指的是相对来说较轻微的疾病,以及涉及到精神健康的疾病,如:mental illness 精神病。
