Feifei
大家好，欢迎收听 BBC英语教学的《地道英语》。我是冯菲菲。
Sian
…and me, Sian. Hello! Hey Feifei what are you doing on your phone? We've got a programme to record.
Feifei
我头特别疼，这不，网上说了，可能是头部受伤了，也可能是由于头部有肿块，还有可能是……
Sian
Or maybe you've just got a headache! Give me that phone… you're just scaring yourself!
Feifei
诶，你等等，这儿还说如果我有以下这些症状的话，应该马上去医院。Maybe I do have a fever… I am feeling rather hot.
Sian
That's because it's boiling in here – I'm hot too… and I'm starting to get a headache. I know exactly what's wrong with you – you have a case of cyberchondria!
Feifei
Cyberchondria？你看，我就说嘛我肯定得了什么病。不过 cyberchondria 是什么？It sounds serious.
Sian
A cyberchondriac is someone who looks up medical advice on the internet for every symptom they have and then gets really anxious because they think they have a serious illness! Just like you're doing.
Feifei
哦，原来 cyberchondriac 和 hypochondriac 有相似之处，cyberchondriac 用来指一个通过上网查询病症后想象自己患了各种病、自诊的人。
Sian
Exactly, this term is a combination of 'cyber' – relating to computers – and hypochondriac. Let's hear some examples.
Examples
There are so many medical websites nowadays, it's no wonder more and more people are self-diagnosing and becoming cyberchondriacs.
Ana: I was convinced that I had this really rare disease that I read about online. Turns out that I just wasn't drinking enough water!
Joe: Ha! You're such a cyberchondriac!
Feifei
Right, let's get on with the programme – although I haven't brought my glasses today so I'm afraid I can't read the script very well.
Sian
What? You've forgotten your glasses? Well no wonder you've got a headache.
Feifei
Oh yeah, that could be it. Phew, I was convinced something terrible was wrong with me. Right, let's get on with the programme.
Sian
Hang on there's a link here to the 'ten most dangerous tropical diseases', I'll just have a quick look…
Feifei
But you haven't even been to a tropical country lately. Put the phone down!
Sian
Oh ok! Goodbye.
Feifei
Bye.
