地道美语听力播客655:捐献器官（双语）

Christine: What is this sticker on your driver’s license?

克里斯汀：你驾照上贴的这标签是什么?

Saul: This sticker? It indicates that I’ve signed up for the organ donation program. If anything bad happens to me, I want my organs to go to recipients who need them.

索尔：标签?这是说我签署捐献器官的协议。倘若我发生什么不幸，我想把我的器官捐给需要的人。

Christine: You mean you want somebody else to have your heart, liver...

克里斯汀：你的意思是让别人拥有你的心脏、肝脏……

Saul: ...eyes, kidneys, or anything else that can be transplanted into someone else. Don’t you want to donate your organs?

索尔：还有眼睛、肾或者其他能够移植到别人身上的器官。你难道不想捐献你的器官吗?

Christine: Me? No way. I’ll never consent to doctors cutting up my body after I die. Those organs are a part of me.

克里斯汀：我?不可能。我死后，绝对不允许医生在我身上动刀子。这些器官是我的一部分。

Saul: But you won’t need them when you’re dead, and there are long waiting lists at eye banks and organ registries. Your organ donation might be the difference between life and death for somebody, you know.

索尔：但是你死后就不需要这些器官了呀，但是有很多人在排队等着眼角膜和身体器官呢。你知道吗?你捐献器官对某些人来说就是生与死的区别。

Christine: That might be true, but I can’t imagine somebody else walking around with my brain.

克里斯汀：也许是那样的，但是我无法想象别人装着我的大脑，然后四处活动。

Saul: Hmm, come to think of it, me neither.

索尔：嗯。好好想一下吧，我也想想。
