本期主题being sick 请病假
电话铃响。Julia来电请假I am felling quite ill today.(好一阵猛咳！貌似病好厉害哈哈）
看看她说的症状，病的不轻：疑似流感，头痛喉咙痛流鼻涕再加发烧哈哈齐上阵: I think I am coming down with a flu，I have a headache, sore throat. I am running nose, I am feeling slightly feverish.
老板直言so you are calling in sick.
Julia道出真正用意：I was hoping to take the day off to recover.
trying to get some rest.(好体贴老板)
两个主持人:Julia真能装啊！It seems that shewas acting. Yeah
奉上怎样请假小贴士（实际是直接撒谎饿）
how to tell your boss that you can’t work because you are sick, maybe alie.

----------------------知识点分割线-------------
Language Takeaway
1. headache=a sore head=head hurt
2. sore throat喉咙痛
sore= hurting 女主持人解说喉咙部位（张大嘴巴好敬业！）It’s
the part at the back of your mouth或者吞口水处swallow
有几个疼的部位，还可以说a sore back/a sore arm(打球后) /sore leg.
3. running nose 流鼻涕
听上去很奇怪的表达a strange word，a running nose什么鬼。不是鼻子在跑，而是描述 a lot of water coming (faster) out
of your nose.好形象！
4. slightly feverish
slightly=a little bit.
fever :body is hot when you are sick, 感觉发烫发烧feelingyour body very hot/feel like you have high temperature.
5. To recover=to get better.

3. Take the day off.休假=To not to get to work on that day.
Take the week/month/ year（休一年哈哈，运气好的话you are luck)
最后两个主持人互相吐槽请假高招。
