It Hurts Everywhere!
A patient with a very mysterious illness.
一位老先生走进医院。An old gentleman walked into the hospital.“医生，我全身都疼！”"Doctor, my whole body hurts!"
医生说：“请指给我看。”The doctor said, "Please point to where."
老先生用手指点了点肩膀：“疼！”又点了点腿：“也疼！”The old man touched his shoulder with his finger: "Hurts!" Then his leg: "Also hurts!"
最后他点了点鼻子：“这里也疼！”Finally he touched his nose: "Here too!"
医生检查了半天，笑着说：The doctor examined him for a long while, then said with a smile:“您身体很健康——只是您的手指受伤了。”"You're perfectly healthy — it's just that your finger is hurt."
