中英文稿：
Hello and welcome to The English We Speak with me, Feifei…
大家好，歡迎收聽地道英語，我是菲菲…

…and me, Sian. Hello! Hey Feifei what are you doing on your phone? We’ve got a programme to record.
…還有我，西恩。大家好！嘿，菲菲，你拿著手機幹嘛呢？我們還要錄節目呢。

Well you see I’ve got a really bad headache and it says here on this website that I might have a head injury,or maybe a tumour or…
好吧你知道我頭痛得厲害，這個網站上說我頭部可能受到了什麼損傷，或者是長了腫瘤，或者…

Or maybe you’ve just got a headache! Give me that phone… you’re just scaring yourself!
或者你可能只是頭疼而已！把那個手機給我…你只是在自己嚇自己而已！

Hang on it says here that I should go to the hospital if I have these other symptoms.Maybe I do have a fever… I am feeling quite hot.
等一下，這裡說如果我有其它這些症狀的話我應該去醫院的。也許我是發燒了…我確實感覺好熱哦。

That’s because it’s boiling in here –I’m hot too… and I’m starting to get a headache. I know exactly what’s wrong with you –you have a case of cyberchondria!
那是因為這裡很熱，我也很熱…而且我覺得我開始頭疼了。我清楚地知道你究竟怎麼了——你有上網自診狂的症狀！

Cyberchondria? Oh dear I knew something was wrong.That sounds serious – what is it?
上網自診狂？天哪，我知道有什麼地方出問題了。聽上去好嚴重啊，這是什麼病？

A cyberchondriac is someone who looks up medical advice on the internet for every symptom they have and then gets really anxious because they think they have a serious illness! Just like you’re doing.
上網自診狂是說在網上查對自己每個症狀的醫療建議的人，他們之後會變得非常焦慮，因為他們覺得自己得了很嚴重的病！就像你現在所做的一樣。

Oh, like a ’hypochondriac’ - that’s someone who imagines illnesses that they don’t have, isn’t it?
噢，就像“疑病症患者”一樣，就是本來沒病，卻想像自己有病的人，對吧？

Exactly, this term is a combination of ’cyber’ – relating to computers – and hypochondriac. Let’s hear some examples…
完全正確，這個詞是“網路的”——和電腦相關，以及“疑病症患者”這兩個詞的結合。讓我們來聽幾個例子吧…

There are so many medical websites nowadays, it’s no wonder more and more people are self-diagnosing and becoming cyberchondriacs.
如今有許多的醫學網站，也難怪越來越多的人會自我診斷，變成了上網自診狂。

I was convinced that I had this really rare disease that I read about online. Turns out I just wasn’t drinking enough water!
我原來確定我得了在網上看到的一種罕見疾病，但結果只是我水沒喝夠！

Ha! You’re such a cyberchondriac!
哈！你真是個上網自診狂啊！

Right, let’s get on with the programme – I haven’t brought my glasses today so I’m afraid I can’t read the script very well.
好了，讓我們繼續今天的節目吧。我今天沒把眼鏡帶過來，所以我怕我不能讀好稿子。

What? You’ve forgotten your glasses? Well no wonder you’ve got a headache.
什麼？你忘記戴眼鏡啦？好吧，難怪你頭痛呢。

Oh yeah that could be it. Phew I was convinced something terrible was wrong with me. Right, let’s get on with the programme.
噢對，可能就是這樣哦。唷，我本來還覺得身體出了什麼大問題呢！好啦，我們繼續做節目吧。

Hang on there’s a link here to the ’ten most dangerous tropical diseases’ I’ll just have a quick look….
等一下，這兒有一個連結，“十大最危險的熱帶疾病”，我就稍微看兩眼…

But you haven’t even been to a tropical country lately. Put the phone down!
但你最近根本就沒有去過熱帶國家呀。把手機放下！

Alright! See you later. Bye!
好吧！一會兒見。再見啦！

Bye.
再見！
