The former Prime Minister ,Mr. Wentworth Lane, was defeated in the recent elections.
ðə ˈfɔːmə praɪm ˈmɪnɪstə ,Mr. Wentworth leɪn, wɒz dɪˈfiːtɪd ɪn ðə ˈriːsnt ɪn ðə ˈriːsnt ɪˈlɛkʃənz.
He is now retiring from political life and has gone abroad.
hiː hæz naʊ rɪˈtaɪərɪŋ frɒm pəˈlɪtɪkəl laɪf ænd hæz gɒn əˈbrɔːd.
My friend, Patrick, has always been a fanatical opponent of Mr. Lane's Radical Progressive Party.
maɪ frɛnd, ˈpætrɪk, hæz ˈɔːlweɪz biːn ə fəˈnætɪkəl əˈpəʊnənt ɒv Mr. leɪnz ˈrædɪkəl prəʊˈgrɛsɪv ˈpɑːti.
After elections, Patrick went to the former Prime Minister's house.
ˈɑːftər ɪˈlɛkʃənz, ˈpætrɪk wɛnt tuː ðə ˈfɔːmə praɪm ˈmɪnɪstəz haʊs.
When he asked if Mr. Lane lived there, the policeman on duty told him that since his defeat, the ex-Prime Minister had gone abroad.
wɛn hiː ɑːskt ɪf Mr. leɪn lɪvd ðeə, ðə pəˈliːsmən ɒn ˈdjuːti təʊld hɪm ðæt sɪns hɪz dɪˈfiːt, ði ɛks-praɪm ˈmɪnɪstə hæd gɒn əˈbrɔːd.
On the following day, Patrick went to the house again.
ɒn ðə ˈfɒləʊɪŋ deɪ, ˈpætrɪk wɛnt tuː ðə haʊs əˈgɛn.
The same policeman was just walking slowly past the entrance when Patrick asked the same question.
ðə seɪm pəˈliːsmən wɒz ʤʌst ˈwɔːkɪŋ ˈsləʊli pɑːst ði ˈɛntrəns wɛn ˈpætrɪk ɑːskt ðə seɪm ˈkwɛsʧən.
Though a little suspicious this time, the policeman gave him the same answer.
ðəʊ ə ˈlɪtl səsˈpɪʃəs ðɪs taɪm, ðə pəˈliːsmən geɪv hɪm ðə seɪm ˈɑːnsə.
The day after, Patrick went to the house once more and asked exactly the same question.
ðə deɪ ˈɑːftə, ˈpætrɪk wɛnt tuː ðə haʊs wʌns mɔːr ænd ɑːskt ɪgˈzæktli ðə seɪm ˈkwɛsʧən.
This time, the policeman lost his temper.
ðɪs taɪm, ðə pəˈliːsmən lɒst hɪz ˈtɛmpə.
‘I told you yesterday and the day before yesterday,' he shouted, ' Mr. Lane was defeated in the elections.'
aɪ təʊld juː ˈjɛstədeɪ ænd ðə deɪ bɪˈfɔː ˈjɛstədeɪ,' hiː ˈʃaʊtɪd, ' Mr. leɪn wɒz dɪˈfiːtɪd ɪn ði ɪˈlɛkʃənz.'
'He has retired from the political life and gone to live abroad.'
hiː hæz rɪˈtaɪəd frɒm ðə pəˈlɪtɪkəl laɪf ænd gɒn tuː lɪv əˈbrɔːd.'
'I know.' answered Patrick,'but I love to hear you say it'.
aɪ nəʊ.' ˈɑːnsəd ˈpætrɪk,bʌt aɪ lʌv tuː hɪə juː seɪ ɪt.
