Speaking exercise
In SH if the hospital is small, not many people will go there. Maybe you will have to wait for 2 hours and you will get check for 2 minutes. When I was pregnant, I went to Taiwan for a check and the nurse was very nice to me. If you happen to meet a kind nurse, you will think how kind she is. I think the doctor or the nurse, they are kind and it’s a reasonable thing. But, on the opposite, when we happen to meet a person, we think how kind he is or she is.
Every time I went there before 8. When I went there a lot of people have already went there. A lot of people their family, husband or mother, father will wait.
Revised:
In SH if the hospital is small, not many people will go there. Maybe you will have to wait for 2 hours and you would only get checked for 2 minutes. When I was pregnant, I went to Taiwan for a check-up and the nurse was very nice to me. If you happen to meet a kind nurse, you will wonder how kind she is. I think that if the doctor or the nurse, are kind, then it’s a reasonable thing. But, on the other hand/on the contrary, when we happen to meet a person, we think how kind he is or she is.
Every time I go there before 8. When I arrive, there are a lot of people that are already there. Many people’s families such as their husband, mother, father will wait in line for them.
