Colleague: Oh, I've got a pain in my neck.
Shirley: You'd better take a break.
Colleague: I saw my doctor last week, and she said that I was suffering from the cervical spondylosis.
Shirley: Oh, sorry to hear that. I think not only you but also all of the office workers should pay more attention to their health.
Colleague: Yes, my neck is stiff, and I feel dizzy and sick after a busy day.
Shirley: Me too. I've heard that the massage can relieve pain of the muscle of the affected part, improve blood circulation. I am eager to have a try.
Colleague: But it is costly. You can massage your shoulders by yourself.
Shirley: Does it work?
Colleague: Yes, of course. I had a massage last Sunday. It's quite comfortable.
Shirley: A masseuse said that we should maintain a comfortable sitting position. And while reading and writing avoid long time sitting in one position.
Colleague: That's right. And we also should do some eye massage every day. Starting at a computer screen all day really makes my eyes hurt!
Shirley: Yeah, I learned that close eyes tightly for 3 to 5 seconds, then open them for 3 to 5 seconds. Repeat this 7 or 8 times a day. It's good for your eyesight. Please try now.
Colleague: Yeah, great. I feel much better now. Thanks very much.
Shirley: Maybe we should go to our doctor's every six months.
Colleague: Yes, I agree with you. Take care of the health before everything.
Shirley: You are right.

同事:噢,脖子好疼啊。
雪莉:你最好休息一下。
同事:我上个星期去看医生了,她说我得了颈椎病。
雪莉:噢,很抱歉听到这个。我想不止是你,所有的上班族都应该注意健康。
同事:是啊,一天紧张的工作下来我的脖子都僵了,头也晕,还恶心。
雪莉:我也是。我听说按摩可以减轻受损部位肌肉疼痛,改善血液循环。我很想试试。
同事:但是很贵吧。你能自己按摩肩膀啊。
雪莉:有用吗?
同事:当然有用。我上个星期做了个按摩,很舒服。
雪莉:一个按摩师说我们坐的时候得有个舒适的坐姿,读写的时候不能长时间保持不动。
同事:对啊。我们每天还得做些眼部按摩。整天盯着电脑看,我的眼睛都疼了。
雪莉:是的,听说紧闭眼睛3到5秒,然后睁开眼睛3到5秒。一天重复7到8次,对视力很好。快试一试。
同事:是的,很好。感觉好多了,真是感谢。
雪莉:我们还得每六个月去看一次医生。
同事:是的,同意你的看法。健康是最重要的。
雪莉:对噢。
