Listen and sing.
Miss Polly has a dolly
who is sick, sick, sick
And she calls for the doctor
to come quick, quick, quick
The doctor comes
with his bag and his hat
And he knocks at the door
with a rat-a-tat-tat
He looks at the dolly
and he shakes his head
And he says, “Miss Polly,
put her straight to bed”
He writes out a paper
for a pill, pill, pill
I’ll be back in the morning
Yes, I will, will, will.
Put these sentences in the correct order.

Sarah Morris is a young doctor from England. She is spending a year in Tanzania, in Africa. She is a volunteer for Doctors Without Borders. She visits several villages every day and helps people who are ill. She drives a big jeep, and she has always got her doctor’s bag with her. There she has got everything she needs: a stethoscope, some bandages, injections and pills. When someone is very ill, she takes them to a hospital in the nearest town. Sarah enjoys her work as a volunteer, because she likes to help other people.
