翻译一下For many people the subject of hiccups (嗝) is a joke, but for Harry Mendes, a fifteen-year-old schoolboy from Birmingham, it was something quite different.
  His hiccups began one Sunday lunchtime and continued day and night for two weeks. After the first week, Harry\'s parents took him to hospital, but it took another week for the doctors to cure his attack.
  Harry, who is now back at school, described what happened to him.
  “When I began to hiccup, I drank a glass of water but that didn\'t do any good. That evening I had hiccups every four seconds. We tried everything to stop them. I held my breath and drank cold drinks. My father even tried to give me a shock but that didn\'t work either.”
  After a week of sleepless nights, he went to hospital. The doctors took an X-ray of his chest but they couldn\'t find anything wrong.
  “They gave me some medicine and my hiccups slowed down, but it was another week before the medicine worked completely and my hiccups stopped.”
  Harry was very lucky. The world record holder is the American farmer Charles Osborne, who hiccupped for sixty-eight years. He stopped in 1990 at last, but nobody knows why.
对于很多人来说打嗝只是让人发笑的东西,但是对于一个15岁来自伯明翰的harry来说,意义就不一样了.
他从某个周日午饭时候就开始打嗝,然后一直从早到晚的持续了两周的时间.事情发生一周以后,他的父母就带他去看医生,但是医生居然也花了一周的时间来治疗.
harry现在已经回学校了,陈述着这到底是怎么回事.
当我一打嗝,就喝一杯水,但是似乎没有什么用处.到了晚上,每隔4秒钟,我就打一次嗝.我们已经用尽所有办法去阻止我打嗝,不呼吸然后喝冷水.我爸爸甚至吓我,但是这些都不管用.
经过了失眠一周之后,他去了医院.医生做了X射线的胸透之后还是没有发现任何的问题.
他们给我吃了一些药,然后我的打嗝症状缓解了一点点.但是吃了一个星期之后,药物才完整的发挥作用,我的打嗝才止住了.
harry非常幸运,世界纪录的保持者是美国的一个农民charles,他打嗝打了68年,最终在90年止住了,但是没人知道引发的原因.
