Lesson 48 Did you want to tell me something?
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.

练习感悟：
周末这两天真的是近两年最颓废的两天，哪儿都不想去，什么都不想做。把两年前写的英语语音心得翻出来看了下，满满放水的痕迹，心虚的很。
我想要好好学习，不想放水，一点点都不想！！所以宁愿不去学习，要学习就静下心点，一点一滴慢慢做，不追求数量，不追求笔记好看，不追求我写了多少篇的笔记，最基本的是，我掌握了多少。
