B: When I went back to my doctor to hear the results of my lab tests, I tried to keep a poker faceeven though I was scared to death. Then you guess what he said.

我去医生那儿看化验结果的时候，我害怕得要死，不过我还是装硬作没有事儿一样，你猜他怎么说。

A: That’s just what I want to know.

B:He told me the tests were negative and there was nothing wrong with me.

地道表达：

keep a poker face

解词释义：

人们在玩牌的时候，为了防止别人知晓自己牌的好坏，常常要面无表情，隐藏自己的心理状况，所以poker face意思是“好无表情的脸，不动声色的脸”，意思即：面无表情。
