Seeing a Specialist
I went to see my doctor because I had a nagging pain in my leg. After he examined me and ran some routine tests, he suggested that I go see a specialist. I made an appointment with Dr. Slope.
Dr. Slope: Good morning. How are you today?
Simon: I’m fine, Dr. Slope. My GP, Dr. Harding, referred me to you. He thought that you might be able to diagnose the problem with my leg.
Dr. Slope: Well, let’s take a look…Hmm…I want to order some tests but I think you may need surgery. It’s a simple procedure and it will relieve your pain.
Simon: So, it’s not a high risk operation?
Dr. Slope: No, not at all. It’s quite routine.
Simon: Are there any other treatment options?
Dr. Slope: Not that I’d recommend. This is the best course of treatment in my opinion.
I was really surprised by what Dr. Slope said. I really didn’t want to have surgery. I think I’d better get a second opinion before going under the knife.

请问怎样可以在你这里订阅ELS的PODCAST？我用Itunes

如果你订阅我的英文学习FEED:esfeed.wangyutang.com，当我发布ESL内容时，你就可以使用iTune收听。除此之外，在我这里无法直接订阅esl的poscast，你可以直接去esl网站直接订阅。

大概何时更新一次呢？我昨天订了你说的这个FEED，但是很多内容是VOA Special，语速有点慢的说。

小火同志，呵呵，很不好意思，我的博客主要是为了我自己学习英语方便，英语材料也是根据我自己的水平找的。所以，可能有些不适合您？很抱歉。这些材料想来只能用于您扩大听力材料范围用了。目前我只能听懂这些，所以我只能提供这些，不好意思，呵呵。我想，您需要寻找更高级的学习办法了，不过还是谢谢您曾经关注过我的博客。
昨天折腾了一晚上，终于把ESL podcast给弄明白了。其实很好弄，只要下载一个Itunes，然后进入Store，选择Podcast，再找到ESL的专题，就随便订阅你要的ESL podcast。下载后的PODCAST，显示其“简介”，里面就有录音文字的对话全文，这都是无须付费订阅的。如果同步到IPOD NANO，就可以在任何时间任何地点听了，在Nano的播放界面连续按中间选择键3次，也可显示对话文字。
ESL podcast的音质很好，语速适中，而且解说也很详细，对每个重点词汇都有分析，我认为根本不需要再进行什么付费的订阅了。
通过Itunes下载的时候，网速可能有点慢，不过不要紧，慢慢下就是了。

可以問一下,您說的那個簡介是在哪看到的啊
我好像都看不見那簡介,看了一下,要有conversation的內容好像要付費?
