Please help me about this sentence
"He imagines that when he's interested, when he thinking, his brain is moving , stretching itself,leaning this way and that, flexing. When his brain stops moving--that is , when he's bored--off goes the TV ,closed goes the book,turned out goes the teacher."
What's the meaning of "off goes the TV , closed goes the book,turned out goes the teacher."er."
Thanks so much

When his brain stops moving--that is , when he's bored:
- he switches off the TV
- the closes the book
- the teacher (in himself??) is evicted

It could also mean that when he's bored/his brain isn't 'active', then he no longer takes in what he's watching on the TV, or reading from a book, or listening to from a teacher.
