درس 8

She moved to the sink and turned on the water.
She dropped her glass in the sink and took a step backward.

Neither said anything while Dean began to clear the dishwasher from last evening's meal.
Rinsing it, he placed it in the dishwasher and shut the door.

A bookcase containing a dozen baseball trophies highlighted the far wall of the small room.
A Chesterfield bookcase with sliding wooden doors and a gorgeous Kingston hall tree bench are also pieces suited to easily matching function with many different styles.

Pointing his fork at her plate, he spoke sternly.
He handed her a plate of scrambled eggs and toast.

A knife is an instrument to cut with.
He grabbed a butter knife and began spreading jelly on a biscuit.

He sat up in the bed and looked around.
She sat down on the bed and sighed again.

A, Ladle bringing the cast iron from the blast-furnace.
The glass is taken from the furnace in large iron ladles, which are carried upon slings running on overhead rails; from the ladle the glass is thrown upon the cast-iron bed of a rolling-table, and is rolled into sheet by an iron roller, the process being similar to that employed in making plate-glass, but on a smaller scale.

The driveway had to be around that next bend.
He turned into a driveway and shut off the truck.

Pete drank the rest of his coffee and handed the cup to Cassie.
Was the cup left here?

After a warm shower, she felt better.
The shower was on, and she was singing.

"Toilet paper," she muttered.
She awoke on the lower bunk bed in a prison cell with no windows and a tiny metal toilet and sink.

She sprawled on the rug near the fireplace.
He dropped to his knees on the Oriental rug with her still in his arms.

He opened the door of the stove to peek.
Did you get the stove burning?

She jumped up, pushing them all away, darting for the bathroom with a hand over her mouth.
She put the things in her bathroom and was returning to the bedroom when Cade knocked on her open door.

She threw the pillow over her head, drawing the light blanket up against her chin.
She fluffed the pillow and changed position, unable to sleep.

Tropical Oasis: One tablespoon of this fluid supplies over 125 different nutrients, including 10 milligrams of amino acids, a full day's supply of vitamins A through E, dozens of trace minerals and 1.32 milligrams of herbal extracts.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of the rose water and the finely chopped almonds.

She took a suitcase out of the closet and swung it up on the bed.
"He's not in the closet," Toby said, then laughed.

The president of the Republic has a military household, and the minister a cabinet, both of which are occupied chiefly with questions of promotion, patronage and decorations.
Fly down on Friday and we can put this whole thing in a file cabinet by the weekend.

Not just microwave stuff?
Well, don't despair, help is at hand and we're not talking about microwave meals.

She dropped her fork and stood.
Jonathan put the last fork beside a plate and smiled up at her.

Deidre left the elevator and went to her apartment.
The other occupant of the elevator glanced at her.

"Let me see something," he said, striding to where his desk was.
She made her way to the notebook near the desk phone.

This printer is purely mechanical, and its speed is very high.
He was a master printer and an artist of the first order.

With great focus, she dug through the undergarments in the dresser and chose a set that matched, like human-Deidre did.
Going to the dresser, he pulled out some clothing.

She grabbed a bowl and dipped out the last of the oatmeal.
His gaze shifted to a bowl of food.

I know you leave the cap off the toothpaste and I even know when you...
She wiped the last of the toothpaste from her mouth and glanced down.

The cinema out in the shopping mall has a 9:40 show.
The mall; where's the mall from here?

He also brought a bottle of kvass, taken from the kitchen for them to try.
I'll be in the kitchen... when you get decent.

It rather sounds like an airport paperback.
With everything going on, Carmen didn't have time to worry about flying, but when they were all sitting at the airport, she finally had time to stew over it.

I made myself comfortable on the sofa, my arm around Betsy, as we all waited for him to continue.
My smile disappeared when I saw Howard Abbott on the sofa, his head in his hands.

She held out a saucer and cup.
You wouldn't have to make a big deal out of; like seeing a flying saucer, I added with a smile.

She glanced out the window, still smiling.
Actually, I never gave it much thought until I found the window open.

A spiral stairway leads from the base of this pedestal to the torch.
The foyer extended from the front door to the windows, with multiple hallways and a stairway running deeper into the place.

A computer can do some tasks better than a person can. 
I haven't been near a computer since before I left.

She turned on the faucet, plunging her hands under the icy stream of water and gasped.
She turned on the faucet and let it run until it was hot enough then filled the bowl.

I left the building for home.
The three-story building looked big enough to cover a city block.

He leaned forward in his chair, sobering.
There sat the thorny Sorcerer in his chair of state, and when the Wizard saw him he began to laugh, uttering comical little chuckles.

Could I have a glass of water?
He set a glass of Coke on the counter before her.

Now that the truth was out, maybe it wouldn't be so difficult to live in the same apartment now.
Of course, living in an apartment with three girls couldn't be easy.

She pushed open the door with the mirror and stared.
A mirror lined the inside of one door.

He had been spending too much time with the television lately.
Ingrid was clapping at the television, and his gaze flickered to the screen.

He will have a blanket of red each fall.
It was still snowing - huge flakes that lit softly on the heavy blanket of snow on the ground.

The toothbrush slipped out of his hand, clattering into the sink.
Alex stepped to the door of the bathroom, a toothbrush in one hand, and stared at her.

Then he lit the pilot light and set the coffeepot over a burner again.
Alex replaced the pot on the burner and resumed his place at the table.

She retreated to her bedroom to grab her purse.
I scooted into the bedroom and closed the door.

She relaxed after a nice, long soak in the bathtub, her thoughts wandering among the stars.
Deidre washed her face and redid her makeup before venturing to peek into the bathtub again.

She was cleaning the coffee pot and Alex was reclining in a chair at the table, enjoying the last cup of coffee.
It might get the pot boiling a bit.

He tapped the roof of his truck with his fingernails.
It would take a lot of money to repair the roof and erase the water damage.

On the south it was bordered by a portico with a single row of columns in front; on the east by a double portico, more than a stadium in length (220 yds.), and serving as a racecourse for practice in bad weather.
An important place of entertainment is Olympia, near Hammersmith Road and the Addison Road station on the West London railway, which includes a vast arena under a glass roof; while at Shepherd's Bush are the extensive grounds and buildings first occupied by the Franco-British Exhibition of 1908, including a huge stadium for athletic displays.

I heard we had a nice museum in the cellar.
"I guess the sisters spent the day at the museum," Cynthia said.

He stood by the balcony door looking at the crowd.
The master bedroom had wooden patio doors that opened on a balcony facing east.

Alex met her at the door, a steaming cup of coffee in one hand.
Her fingers found the door handle - just in case.

The only difference was the electricity powering lights in the heavy iron and wood chandeliers overhead and the intercom system installed into the walls beside each entrance.
Jimmy's scratchy voice came across the intercom.

In ten minutes the table was ready and a napkin spread on it.
Carmen grabbed a napkin and began wiping the mashed potatoes from her hand.

The upstairs bedroom would become an office.
Edith's back upstairs with Donnie.

Today, I have a vegetable garden in my backyard.
They usually spent the morning hours in the garden and the afternoon at the pool.

There was no riding the fence on this one.
Josh was in his field digging fence post holes when she passed.

I took the shortest way through the little park behind the palace.
Yes, but this is park land.

She threw the towel on the counter.
Carmen picked up the towel and hung it on the rack.

Come to the house with me.
Living in that house and using the pool would be like a summer vacation, not a job.

I've repaired the computers in your office, too.
Alex decided to build a room upstairs for his office, out of the reach of Destiny's exploring hands.

One day they were sitting at the table working on coloring books when Alex came home early.
He was sitting at a table across and down from them.

When they arrived at the hospital, Alex was pacing.
They have a hospital here.

We ate supper and put the rest in the refrigerator for you.
Fred stooped to see what goodies remained in the refrigerator and removed a plate of cold meatloaf.

With 100 calories per two tablespoons of Grade B maple syrup, eight calories per two tablespoons of lemon juice, and one calorie per 1/6 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, each drink provides approximately 109 calories.
There are many piercing products on the market that can be used for this purpose, or you can make your sea salt soaks at home by combining 1/8th of a teaspoon of non-iodized salt with an eight ounce glass of warm water.

She rang the doorbell and we waited for someone to answer.
The doorbell rang again.

She grabbed a pen and a notepad, hesitating a second before pulling the top sheet off the notepad.
He tore a sheet of paper from Fred's pad and scribbled the number.
