纯正英语一分钟-hospitals

I don’t really like hospitals. I have many bad memories² of them. I’ve stayed in hospital seven times in my life³. I guess I must be unlucky⁴. My friends all say I’m accident⁵ prone⁶. My longest stay in hospital was⁷ for three months. That was boring⁸. I had⁹ lots of visitors¹⁰ but staying in bed for that length¹¹ of time isn’t much fun. The worst¹² thing was hospital food. I couldn’t wait to get out and have some real¹ food. The strange¹³ thing is that I really like watching TV dramas and movies about hospitals. It feels like I know everything that’s going¹⁴ on. I wouldn’t like to work in a hospital though¹⁵. I hate¹⁶ the smell and the sight¹⁷ of blood¹⁸. I’ll do my best from now on to stay away from hospitals, unless¹⁹ I’m visiting someone²⁰ else.
