A: Have you been feeling OK lately?

B: My coach wants you to check my blood pressure.

A: Has anyone ever told you that you had high blood pressure?

B: I don’t have any symptoms of high blood pressure.

A: People with high blood pressure seldom know they have it, which is why we call it the silent killer.

B: What test do you do for high blood pressure?

A: We will pump air into this cuff to get a reading.

B: When you get the reading, what information does it give you?

A: It tells me how hard your heart pumps blood and how much your arteries relax at rest.

B: I am hoping that this test goes well for me.

A:你最近感觉还好吗？

A:有没有人告诉过你你有高血压？

B:我没有任何高血压的症状。

A:高血压患者很少知道自己患有高血压，这就是为什么我们称之为沉默杀手的原因。

B:你怎么做高血压检查？

A:我们会给这个袖带充气，看看读数。

B:当你得到读数时，它会给你什么信息？

A:它告诉我你的心脏泵血有多困难，你的动脉在休息时有多松弛。
