Tom: Hi, Ellen. What's the matter with you?
Ellen: I think I've got a terrible cold. My nose is stuffed up and I've got a sore throat.
Tom: Oh, that's too bad. You should be at home in bed. It's really important to get a good rest.
Ellen: Yeah, you're right.
Tom: And have you taken anything for it?
Ellen: No, I haven't.
Tom: Well, you should take some vitamin C and it's also a good idea to drink lots of liquids.
Ellen: That's a good suggestion. I've a bottle of vitamin C at home.
Tom: Have you seen a doctor?
Ellen: Not yet.
Tom: Well, you'd better see a doctor first, and then go back home to rest.
Ellen: Yeah, I'll do it right now.
Tom: Ellen, it's also helpful to cook chicken soup with some garlic in it, and drink a cup every half an hour. It really works.
Ellen: Oh, chicken stock for a cold? OK, I'll try it. Thanks.
Tom: I hope you recover soon.
