Did you want to tell me something?

原文

Dentists always ask questions when it is impossible for you to answer. My dentist had just pulled out one of my teeth and told me to rest for a while. I tired so 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 whether I like 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 booth had been. I suddenly felt very worried, but could not say something. 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.

牙科医生常常会问你一些问题当这些问题要你无法做出回答的时候。我的牙科医生刚刚帮我拔掉一颗牙齿并且叫我休息一段时间。我想说点什么，但是我嘴边里塞满了药棉。他知道我喜欢收藏火柴盒，于是就问我藏品有没有增加。他接着又开始问我的兄弟的近况和我是不是喜欢新的在伦敦的工作。对于这些回答，我只能点头或者发出奇怪的声音。与此同时，我的舌头快速检查那个拔除牙齿之后留下的伤口。我开始很着急，但是还是无法说话。当我的牙科医生最后移除了我嘴巴里药棉。我才能告诉他，你拔错了牙齿。
