Text In this podcast, the word "shocks" means the parts of a car that make the ride smoother: "This car has very good shocks, and we almost didn't notice how bad the road was." A "shock" can also be a strong feeling of surprise, either negative or positive: "Hearing that she had won one million dollars was a huge shock for everyone." In medicine, "shock" is a medical problem that happens when one has suffered a major injury, has probably lost a lot of blood, and is very weak: "Rebecca was in shock after the accident, so the doctors kept her in the hospital for two days." Finally, a "shock" can be the painful feeling that one gets when accidentally touching electricity: "If you touch that electric fence, you'll get a shock!"
