John needs to have an operation on his left leg. Now he and the nurse are telling something about the operation.
Nurse: Do you know that your operation has been scheduled the day after tomorrow?
John: Yes.
Nurse: We’ll give you an injection of anaesthesia about 30 minutes before the operation. So your friends need to see you before 8:30.
John: Ok, I will tell them. Thank you for telling me so much.
Nurse: It’s nothing. Have you signed your name on the consent form?
John: Yes, I have. But I don’t know why I have to do so.
Nurse: It shows that you agree to the operation on you.
John: Oh, I see.
约翰的左腿需要做手术，此刻他和护士正在讨论手术方面的事。
护士： 您的手术安排在了后天，您知道吗？
约翰： 知道。
护士： 手术前30分钟左右，我们要给您注射麻醉剂，所以您的朋友应该在8点半以前来看您。
约翰： 好的，我会告诉他们的。
谢谢你告诉我这么多。
护士： 没什么。您签手术同意书了吗？
约翰： 签了，但我不知道为什么要这么做？
护士： 这表明您同意医生为您做手术。
约翰： 哦，我明白了。
lift one's face
lift one's face 从字面上看是“吊起某人的脸”，然而它的真正意思是“做整容手术”。一般女士年纪大时，皮肤就会松弛、起皱，于是整形医生就会建议她们做拉皮手术，把松弛、起皱的皮肤拉紧，这样就会看起来年轻一些。因此 lift one's face , 意即“整容”之意。
例如：
Susan lifted her face and looks much younger.
苏珊做了面部整容手术，看起来年轻多了。
