- Doctor: Let me see. Open your mouth. Yes, I can see the throat is very red. I think you might have an infection.
- Mr Baldwin: Oh dear, what should I do?
- Doctor: You should drink a lot and take some tablets. I'll give you a prescription.
- Mr Baldwin: Do you think I should stay in bed?
- Doctor: If you had a high fever, you ought to go to bed and rest, but you don't have a fever at the moment. If you look after yourself, you will recover / get better / feel better quickly.
- Mr Baldwin: Last time I had a sore throat, it went on / lasted for nearly a month.
- Doctor: Don't worry. You should / ought to always wear warm clothes in the winter and come and see me if the sore throat doesn't get better / improve.
- Mr Baldwin: You're right. When I'm ill, I usually wait until it gets much worse. Thank you for your advice and the prescription. Goodbye.
