Would you explain?
This question is relating to New Concept English(Book3 Lesson 6).
http://www.putclub.com/html/course/classic/newconcept/book3/2008/0926/7321.html
Is the following sentence natural(in English)?
"One of the thieves was struck by a heavy statue, but he was too busy helping himself to diamonds to notice any pain."
I want to know whether the phrases "helping himself" and "busy helping ..... to diamonds" are natural or not.
Yes both of those constructions are natural.
The whole sentence paints a mental image of someone so focused on the task that they do not notice anything else.
