（单词翻译:单击）

A guy falls asleep on the beach for several hours and gets a horrible sunburn. He goes to the hospital and is promptly1 admitted after being diagnosed with second degree burns. With his skin already starting to blister2 and the severe pain he was in, the doctor prescribes continuous intravenous feeding with saline, electrolytes, a sedative3, and a Viagra pill every four hours. The nurse, who is rather astounded4, says, "What good will Viagra do for him,Doctor?" The Doctor replied,
"It'll keep the sheets off his legs."
