Scenario: yesterday Peter told his friend, Jessica, that he didn't feel very well. Now Jessica is asking Peter about his illness.
J: Peter, are you feeling any better?
P: Thanks for asking Jessica I am feeling quite a bit better now.
J: I am glad to hear that.
P: But I hate being sick! It was only a cold.
J: How did you get that cold in the first place?
P: I normally get a cold when the season changes from winter to summer or from summer to winter
J: You mean, it follows a certain pattern?
P: Yes, it always happens. So I am not surprised about getting this cold now.
J: So what do you usually do to fight the cold?
P: I normally take cold tablets and rest a lot. Also I drink flat lemonade as well as water.
J: You are experienced. As for me, every time I come down with a cold, I just leave it there.
P: That is not the best way to do things... I was lucky though because I still had some medicine from when I was sick in February
J: But I do sleep more, as I believe, sleep is the best medicine...

J:不过我会睡的很多,我觉得睡觉是最好的药物。
