美語會話 261 這一定是搞錯了

Yi-jun:Holly! What's wrong? What happened?

Holly:Taylor's dead! He...had...stomach cancer. It all makes sense now.

Yi-jun:His stomachaches, headaches, bad moods-and he threw up at the reunion!

Holly:He had no energy and was so pale and skinny. Why didn't I see it sooner?

Yi-jun:Maybe the hospital got the wrong person! Call Femi. She works in that cancer ward.

怡君走向荷莉

怡君：荷莉!怎么了?發(fā)生什么事了?

荷莉：泰勒死了!他……得了……胃癌。現(xiàn)在一切全都說得通了。

怡君：他的胃痛、頭痛、壞脾氣……還有他在同學會上吐!

荷莉：他精神不濟而且又白又瘦。我為什么沒有早點看出來?

怡君：或許醫(yī)院搞錯人了!打給費咪。她在那間醫(yī)院的癌癥病房工作。

荷莉：好。我還會打電話去他家。你去查報紙上的訃聞。如果是真的，他……這一定是搞錯了
