有個朋友，在一次烤肉聚會當中絆倒了，摔了一跤，
A friend once fell down suddenly in a BBQ party.

有時候中風的癥兆很難辨認，
6 }1 m1 \$ D4 b  E- C0 c8 u  D2 YSometimes it's not easy to identify a stroke,
* i7 n' q7 q8 N* D   
不幸的是，缺乏警覺就會帶來災難。
Yet unfortunately, it will bring disaster without proper alert.
, L4 W8 E$ d. p7 W2 U* c6 r3 H   
身邊的人辨認不出中風的徵兆，
If people around a stroke patient are not able to tell a stroke,
   
中風患者就會嚴重腦傷。
The stroke patient will suffer from serious brain injury.
   
醫生說，旁人只要問三個簡單的問題，
# o# F; M& G( G$ p# [A doctor says, if surrounding people can just ask 3 simple questions,
3 {( y' f2 P8 p" l. i5 L& R   
就可以辨識中風：
4 `4 o, D  ]* u  w8 UIt is possible to diagnose a stroke.
   
S ： (smile) 要求患者笑一下
Ask the patient to smile
4 A0 T" G2 j/ w+ M: r& U# u* X; k   
1 Y% B9 W1 E6 e' q1 S# P" r1 VT ： (talk) 要求患者說一句簡單的句子 (要有條理，有連貫性)，例如：今天天氣晴朗。
Request the patient say a simple sentence (must be reasonable and consecutive)
，e..g. The weather is sunny today.
2 s; m! n& `7 A3 Q+ U" l   
. c3 M* @; T8 T2 rR ： (raise) 要求 患者舉起雙手
Ask the patient to raise both hands at the same time
   
注意 Note：
另外一項中風癥兆是： 要求患者伸出舌頭 ，如果舌頭「彎曲」或偏向一邊，那也是中風的徵兆
One more diagnose method of stroke is : Tell the patient to extrude his tongue. If the tongue is bending or leaning towards one side, that is also a symptom of stroke.

好像中风和head trauma有本质的区别，但是无论如何，脑袋出问题，可不是小问题
