Lesson 48
Did you want to tell me something?
你想對(duì)我說(shuō)什么嗎?
First listen and then answer the question.
聽錄音,然后回答以下問(wèn)題。
Why did the writer become very worried?
Dentists always ask questions when it is impossible for you to answer. My dentist had just pulled out one of my teeth and had told me to rest for a while. I tried to say something, but my mouth was full of cotton wool. He knew I collected match boxes and asked me whether my collection was growing. He then asked me how my brother was and whether I liked my new job in London. In answer to these questions I either nodded or made strange noises. Meanwhile, my tongue was busy searching out the hole where the tooth had been. I suddenly felt very worried, but could not say anything. When the dentist at last removed the cotton wool from my mouth, I was able to tell him that he had pulled out the wrong tooth.

你想對(duì)我說(shuō)什么嗎?
牙科醫(yī)生們總是在你無(wú)法作出回答的時(shí)候向你提出問(wèn)題。我的牙科醫(yī)生剛剛給我拔掉了一顆牙,叫我休息一會(huì)兒。我想說(shuō)點(diǎn)什么,但我嘴里塞滿了藥棉。他知道我收集火柴盒,于是問(wèn)我收藏的米柴盒是否在增加。接著他又問(wèn)我的兄弟近來(lái)如何,問(wèn)我是否喜歡倫敦的新工作。作為對(duì)這些問(wèn)題的回答,我不是點(diǎn)頭,就是發(fā)出奇怪的聲音。與此同時(shí),我的舌頭正在忙著尋找剛拔掉的那顆牙的傷口。我突然非常著急起來(lái),但卻什么也說(shuō)不出來(lái)。當(dāng)那位牙醫(yī)最后將藥棉從我嘴中取出時(shí),我總算有可能告訴他,他拔錯(cuò)了牙。

where = 介詞 + which
That is the house which I lived in. 這是我住的房子
That is the house where I lived.
I swim in the river. 那就是我常常游泳的河
where稱為關(guān)系副詞,另外還有when也是關(guān)系副詞
This is the river where I swim.
where作定語(yǔ)從句的標(biāo)志,修飾前面的hole.
The tooth had been in the hole. (in the hole = where)
