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 birds' eggs 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.
be busy doing 忙于做某事 search out找出 判断是否是定语从句就看是否和前面的名词有关系 where=介词+which that is the house which i lived in that is the house where i lived this is the river where i swim where作定语从句的标志,修饰前面的hole in answer to作为对...的回答 in return for作为对...的报答
