A man who had broken his right leg was taken to hospital a few weeks before Christmas. From the moment he arrived there, he kept on pestering his doctor to tell him when he would be able to go home. He dreaded having to spend Christmas in hospital. Though the doctors did his best, the patient's recovery was slow. On Christmas Day, the man still had his right leg in plaster. He spent a miserable day in bed thinking of all the fun he was missing. The following day, however, the doctor consoled him by telling him that his chances of being able to leave hospital in time for New Year celebrations were good.? The man took heart and, sure enough, on New Years' Eve he was able to hobble along to a party. To compensate for his unpleasant experiences in hospital, the man drank a little more than was good for him. In the process, he enjoyed himself thoroughly and kept telling everybody how much he hated hospitals. He was still mumbling something about hospitals at the end of the party when he slipped on a piece of ice and broke his left leg.

圣誕節(jié)前幾周，某人摔斷了右腿被送進(jìn)醫(yī)院。從他進(jìn)醫(yī)院那一刻時(shí)，他就纏住醫(yī)生，讓醫(yī)生告訴他什么時(shí)候能回家。他十分害怕在醫(yī)院過圣誕。盡管醫(yī)生竭力醫(yī)治，但病人恢復(fù)緩慢。圣誕節(jié)那天，他的右腿還上著石膏，他在床上郁郁不樂地躺了一天，想著他錯(cuò)過的種種歡樂。然而，第二天，醫(yī)生安慰他說，出院歡度新年的可能性還是很大的，那人聽后振作了精神。果然，除夕時(shí)他可以一瘸一拐地去參加晚會(huì)了。為了補(bǔ)償住院這一段不愉快的經(jīng)歷，那人喝得稍許多了一點(diǎn)。在晚會(huì)上他盡情娛樂，一再告訴大家他是多么討厭醫(yī)院。晚會(huì)結(jié)束時(shí)，他嘴里還在嘟噥著醫(yī)院的事，突然踩到一塊冰上滑倒了，摔斷了左腿。
