Hello dears,

Our story 150: part 5:

- As he was feeling well, he started work again and accepted the overtime that his boss made him do...
Comme il se sentait bien, il reprit le travail et accepta les heures supplémentaires que son patron lui fit faire.
- He had neglected his doctor's advice: TO HAVE THE WORKERS DO the tiring things instead of doing them himself.
Il avait négligé les conseils de son médecin : faire faire les tâches fatigantes aux ouvriers au lieu de les faire lui même.
- He worked so hard and so late that he relapsed, and his wife HAD TO HAVE HIM ADMITTED to hospital.
Il travailla si dur et si tard qu'il fit une rechute, et sa femme dut le faire admettre à l'hôpital.
- He WAS MADE TO UNDERGO a complete medical checkup: electrocardiograms, a coronary scan, a blood pressure monitor... He had pipes everywhere...
On l'a soumis à un bilan médical complet : électrocardiogramme, coro-scanner, holter de pression artérielle... il avait des tuyaux partout...

There was nothing alarming, however *we could no longer MAKE HIM WORK too hard.At 50, he should go easy...20 Magie8-10
Il n'avait rien d'alarmant, cependant on ne pouvait plus le faire travailler trop. A 50 ans, il devait mettre la pédale douce.
So,he WAS MADE TO SLEEP more than 10 hours a night with little pink pills which confused his memory.20Amalia8015
Aussi, on le fit dormir plus de dix heures par nuit avec des petites pilules roses qui troublaient sa mémoire...

* J'aurais employé they à la place de we car c'est plus général ou alors la forme passive "he could no longer be made to work so hard"
Attendons la correction de Here4u
