【答案解析】[听力原文]
M: Now all the tartar is gone; your teeth are clean. I"d like you to come in again in six months. Between now and then, you need to make an effort to keep your teeth clean.
W: What should I do?
M: There are several things to do. First of all, be sure to brush your teeth at least twice a day, and floss your teeth every day. There are some other devices on the market that may help you; we"ll talk about those later. The basic things to do are brushing and flossing.
W: I"m not sure how to do that. I"ve never flossed my teeth before.
M: Well, dental floss is a thin string. You can buy it at any drug store. I"ll give you a sample when you leave. With the floss, you can drag the tartar from between your teeth at the gum line.
W: But what"s tartar?
M: Tartar is the white gummy stuff that stays between your teeth on the gum line after eating. It"s composed of bacteria, and that"s what makes our teeth decay.
W: Oh, I guess I"d better start flossing right away.
M: Yes. Flossing helps keep your teeth clean because it helps prevent the build-up of tartar.
W: OK. Can you show me again how to use it?
M: Sure. Take a piece of floss about this long and hold it like this in two hands. Here"s a mirror. Now open your mouth again and watch me as I pull it between your teeth.
