Lily is getting into the bathtub

Lily:Ouch! The water's too hot!
Mom:Get in slowly, sweetie. You'll get used to it. I'm gonna go and make you some chicken soup.
Lily:I'm not hungry, Mom.
Mom:I know you don't have an appetite, but you need to eat something. You'll get too weak if you don't eat.
Lily:[A few minutes later] Ohh...I'm sweating already. It's so hot. I can feel it boiling! Can I get out yet?
Mom:That's a good sign. But just soak a little longer, OK?

莉莉进入浴缸

莉莉:哎唷!水太烫了啦!
妈妈:亲爱的,慢慢泡进去。你会习惯这个温度的。我去帮你煮些鸡汤。
莉莉:妈,我不饿。
妈妈:我知道你没胃口,但你需要吃点东西。不吃东西会没有体力。
莉莉:(几分钟之后)喔……我已经流汗了。水好烫。我觉得水在沸腾!我可以出来了没?
妈妈:这是个不错的征兆。但再多泡一下,好吗
