Lesson95 A fantasy
When the Ambassador of Escalopia returned home for lunch, his wife got a shock. He looked pale and his clothes were in a frightful state.
'What has happened ?' she asked.
'How did your clothes get into such a mess ?'
'A fire-extinguisher, my dear,' answered the Ambassador drily. 'University students set the Embassy on fire this morning.'
'Good heavens!' exclaimed his wife. 'And where were you at the time ?'
'I was in my office as usual,' answered the Ambassador. 'The fire broke out in the basement. I went down immediately. of course, and that fool, Horst, aimed a fire-extinguisher at me. He thought I was on fire. I must definitely get that fellow posted.'
The Ambassador's wife went on asking questions, when she suddenly noticed a big hole in her husband's hat. 'And how can you explain that ?' she asked.
'Oh, that,' said the Ambassador. 'Someone fired a shot through my office window. Accurate, don't you think ? Fortunately, I wasn't wearing it at the time. If I had been, I would not have been able to get home for lunch.'

知识笔记：
- 朗读（L0）：fire-extinguisher/ˈfaɪər/-/ɪkˈstɪŋgwɪʃər/，来源 https://tophonetics.com/。
- 其他：
drily 英[ˈdraɪli]
adv. （为达到幽默效果而说话） 一本正经地，不形于色地;
[例句]The lady nodded drily to me.
那位女士冷淡地朝我点头。
（来源：百度翻译）
get that fellow posted 这里get为使役动词 get sb done 是固定搭配 所以post必须用分词形式 get sb posted 把某人派往到其他职位（来源：https://www.enfamily.cn/thread-131984-1-1.html）
练习感悟：
- 朗读感受：读慢比读快要累，每个词都得读到位，嘴张大，累挂了。。。每天机械地读果真能提高么？还是说量积累得还不足以引起质变？还是说时间投入不够思考不够深入？需要复盘思考下。
- 能否改进：暂无。
- 打鸡血：加油～
