Lesson 50 Taken for a ride
First Listen and then answer the question
Why did the writer not get off the bus at Woodford Green?
I love travelling in the country, but I don't like losing my way.
I went on an excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected.
"I'm going to Woodford Green." I said to the conducter as I got on the bus, "But I don't know where it is."
"I'll tell you where to get off", answered the conducter.
I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped. Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus. "You'll have to get off here", the conducter said. "This is as far as we go".
"Is this Woodford Green?", I asked. "Oh, dear", said the conducter suddenly, "I forgot to put you off".
"It doesn't matter", I said, "I'll get off here".
"We're going back now", said the conducter.
"Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus." I answered.

练习感悟:
1.加入题目和前面的内容,方便计时。
2.今天练习的时间比较长,针对读不好的部分查了音标。之前总觉得我又不需要发音多么完美,干嘛要浪费时间查音标?查了之后发现,虽然音标自己确实不咋认识,可是通过释义、音标几趟查询下来,能把内容重复好几遍,会大大增加熟悉度。见得多了慢慢会有印象。
之前的练习态度可能有些问题。不想查是觉得“浪费时间”,想快点完成练习,不肯花时间打基础,急躁的心态之下根本没办法进行扎实地训练,都是囫囵吞枣地听和读,作业完成就万事大吉。但本来的目的是提升英语读和说的水平,不是为了写作业。有点本末倒置了。
3.朗读这件事高度专注才能发现乐趣。
