Lesson 15 Good news

The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworthwould see me. I felt very nervous when I went into his office. He did not lookup from his desk when I entered. After I had sat down, he said that businesswas very bad. He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such largesalaries. Twenty people had already left. I knew that my turn had come. 'Mr.Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice. 'Don't interrupt,' he said. Then he smiledand told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!

感悟：一晃坚持两周，刻意去练习第一次这样坚持朗读。最近碰上要英语表达，发现很结巴，算是有近一年没有和老外面对面交流了。
