ESL Podcast 510 – Taking a Shower or Bath
时间：2019-02-05 作者：英语课 分类：地道美语播客
I spent the day helping 1 my friend, Babbit, on his farm. When I got home, my wife said, “You stink 2!” I headed straight for the shower.
I ran the water, closed the shower curtain, and adjusted the showerhead. I worked the soap into a lather 3 and scrubbed from head to toe. I rinsed 4 off the soap and toweled off.
When I went back into the living room, my wife said, “You still stink! You need to soak in a bath!”
I went back into the bathroom, put the stopper in the bathtub, and turned on the faucet 5. I didn’t want to take any chances. I took some of my wife’s bubble bath and poured it into the bathtub. When the bath was ready, I got in. I soaked for a half hour and I washed every nook and cranny.
When I went back into the living room, my wife said, “Wow, you smell as pretty as a flower!” That wasn’t exactly what I was going for, but I’d rather smell like flowers than pigs!
