14. This elderly woman with a kindly face and grey hair is the head physician of the
hospital. I've heard a lot about her, she is well spoken of. 15. What a pity that the
doctor has left. I didn't ask/ haven't asked him when I should take/haven't asked
when to take the pills. 16. You'll see, in a moment she'll be telling us about her
diseases, visits to the doctor and suchlike.
Ex. 14, p. 442
The landlady
brought
the tea. I
didn't want
anything, but Ted
made
me eat some
ham. Then I
sat
at the window. I
did not look
round when the landlady
came up
to
clear away, I
did not want
anyone to speak to me. Ted
was reading
a book; at least
he
was pretending
to, but he
did not turn
the page, and I
saw
the tears dropping on it.
I
kept on
looking out of the window. It
was
the
end of June, and the days
were
long.
I
was looking
at the people going in and out of the public-house and the trams going
up and down. I
thought
the day
would
never
come
to an end; then all of a sudden I
noticed
that it
was
night. All the lamps
were/had been lit.
"Why
don't
you
light
the gas?" I
said
to Ted. "It's no good sitting in the dark."
He
lit
the gas. I don't know what
had come/came
over me. I felt that if I
went on
sitting in that room, I
would go
mad. I
wanted
to go somewhere where there
were
lights and people.
