莎拉波娃在奧運決賽的表現讓人有其他聯想?
Maria Sharapova contracted a stomach virus after losing
the Olympic final to Serena Williams and had blood work and an
ultrasound performed upon her return to the United States to rule out a
common cause of stomach trouble in 20-something women.
莎拉波娃在奧運女網總決賽敗給了小威廉絲後，感染了一種胃病毒。回到美國後驗了血做了超音波檢查，去排除20幾歲女人肚子不舒服的一種常見原因。
"[I had an ultrasound] because of the pain I was having," Sharapova said after defeating Melinda Czink 6-2, 6-2 in the first round of the U.S. Open. "It was really weird. They told me I was fine, not pregnant. I'm like, 'Can I get my money back?'"
"因為我肚子痛所以照了個超音波" 莎拉波娃在美國公開賽第一輪以6-2,6-2打敗Melinda Czink後這樣說，"這真的很奇怪，他們告訴我我很好，沒懷孕，我想說 '那可以把錢退給我嗎?' "
'Tis better to part with a co-pay than leave with a sonogram.
不過付錢帶著張保險單據離開總比帶著一張超音波片子離開醫院好多了。
