Lesson68 Persistent

I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It was no use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are, he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning.

'Hello, Nigel,' I said. 'Fancy meeting you here !'

'Hi, Elizabeth,' Nigel answered. ' I was just wondering how to spend the morning--until I saw you. You're not busy doing anything, are you ?'

' No, not at all,' I answered.' I'm going to.. .'

'Would you mind my coming with you ?' he asked, before I had finished speaking.

‘ Not at all,' I lied, 'but I'm going to the dentist.'

' Then I'll come with you,' he answered.' There's always plenty to read in the 'waiting room !'

词组:avoid doing sth.避免做...

练习感悟：

英语读得快不仅可以省时，还可以更快理解长句内容，个人思考了一下，感觉在快读（接近BBC正常语速）的时候，能够比较容易看出句子的语义单元，关注的层次在句子整体的意思上。

一句话，就是干。
