out his tongue,and the doctor looked at it quickly.
"OK,you can put your tongue back now, " the doctor said. " It's clear what's wrong with you. You
need more exercise .
" But , doctor, " the man said. "I don't think. . . "
" Don't tell me what you think , " the doctor said. "I am the doctor, not you. I know what you need.
I see hundreds of people like you. None of them get any exercise. They sit in offices all day and in front
of the TV in the evening. What you need is to walk quickly for at least 20 minutes a day. "

"I don't want to hear any excuse, " the doctor said. "You must find time for exercise. If you don't,you
will get fat and have health problems when you are older. "
" But I walk every day, " the patient said.
" Oh,yes, and I know that. You walk a few feet from your house to your office, or a few more feet
from your office to a restaurant , etc. That is not real walking. I'm talking about a walk in 'the park for
twenty minutes every day. "
