  1. 1 50. Laser Cures Snoring p.343 英语课
英语课


A mother and son are talking.
S: I can't stand Dad's snoring anymore, mom. I didn't sleep a wink 1 last night.
M: I understand. Neither did I. But what can we do?
S: I read in a magazine that there's some kind of laser which can cure snoring.
M: I read that, too. But it's pretty expensive. Besides, people who have tried it say it's painful and could
cause voice change.
S: Oh, I didn't know that. I guess there's no hope then.
M: Well, I'll talk to Dad about it.
S: I hope he agrees to do it. Anyway, a voice change will do him a world of good. Have you heard him try to
sniff 2 lately?
M: Come to think of it, you're right.
