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 answered to these questions I
either nodded or made strange noise. 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.
