El doctor llama por teléfono a su paciente:
(The doctor calls his patient by telephone:)
- Vera, tengo una noticia buena y otra mala.
("Vera, I have good news and bad news.")
- Bueno... dígame primero la buena.
("Well then, . . . tell me the good news first.")
- Los resultados del análisis indican que le quedan 24 horas de vida.
("The results of the analysis indicate that you have 24 hours left to live.")
- Pero, bueno, ¿eso es la buena noticia? ¿Entonces cuál es la mala?
("Well, that's the good news? Then what's the bad news?")
- Que llevo intentando localizarle desde ayer.
("That I have been trying to reach you since yesterday.")
