It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80s came to the hospital. I heard him saying to the nurse that he was in hurry for an appointment(约会) at9:30.
The nurse had him take a 1 in the waiting area, 2 him it would be at least 40 minutes 3 someone would be able to see him. I saw him 4 his watch and decided, since I was 5 busymy patient didn’t 6 at the appointed hour. I would examine his wound. While taking care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor’s appointment.
