Laser Cures Snoring
雷射可治打鼾
A mother and son are talking.
(S=son; M=mother)
S:I can't stand Dad's snoring anymore, Mom. I didn't sleep a wink last night.
一對母子正在談話。
兒子：媽，我再也忍受不了老爸的鼾聲了。我昨晚整夜都沒合上眼。
M:I understand. Neither did I. But what can we do?
媽媽：我了解。我也沒有。但是我們又能怎麼辦呢？
S:I read in a magazine that there's some kind of laser which can cure snoring.
兒子：我在雜誌上看到有種雷射可以治療打鼾。
M:I read that, too. But it's pretty expensive. Besides, people who have tried it say it's painful and could cause voice change.
媽媽：我也看到了，但那挺貴的。況且嘗試過的人說那很痛苦而且可能會導致聲音改變。
S:Oh, I didn't know that. I guess there's no hope then.
兒子：哦，這個我倒不知道。我想大概沒指望了。
M:Well, I'll talk to Dad about it.
媽媽：說不定，我會和你老爸談談這件事。
S:I hope he agrees to do it. Anyway, a voice change will do him a world of good. Have you heard him try to sing lately?
兒子：我希望他會同意。況且改變聲音對他大有好處。妳最近聽過他唱歌嗎？
M:Come to think of it, you're right.
媽媽：這倒使我想起來了，你說的沒錯。
