Once an old man went to see a doctor.The doctor looked him over carefully and said,“Medicine won't help you.You must have a good rest.Go to bed early,drink milk,walk a lot and smoke one cigar a day.
Go to the country a month.”
After a month the man came to the doctor,“How are you?”said the doctor,“I'm gald to see you again.You look much younger.”
“OH!Doctor,I feel quite well now,”said the man,“I had a good rest.Iwent to bed early,drank of milk and walk a lot.You radice certainly helped me,but you told me to smoke one cigar a day almost killed me first.It's no joke to star smoking at my age!”

一次,一個(gè)老人去看醫(yī)生.醫(yī)生給他診斷得很仔細(xì),說(shuō)：“藥已經(jīng)不能幫助你了.你必須很好的休息.很早就去床上休息,喝一些牛奶,多走走,而且每天只能抽一根雪茄.去鄉(xiāng)村生活一個(gè)月.”
一個(gè)月之后,這個(gè)老人又去見(jiàn)了這個(gè)醫(yī)生一次.“你怎么樣了?”醫(yī)生說(shuō)：“我很高興再見(jiàn)到你.你看上去年輕多了.”“嗨!醫(yī)生,我感覺(jué)我現(xiàn)在完全好了.”老人說(shuō),“我很好的休息.很早的睡覺(jué),喝一些牛奶并且多走走.你的忠告無(wú)疑幫助了我.但是你讓我每天抽一支雪茄,這幾乎像殺了我.要知道在我這個(gè)年齡開(kāi)始抽煙可不是一件輕松的事!”
