The play may begin at any moment,' I said. 'It may have begun already,' Susan answered.
I hurried to the ticket-office. 'May I have two tickets please ?' I asked. 'I'm sorry, we've sold out,' the girl said.
'What a pity!' Susan exclaimed.
Just then, a man hurried to the ticket-office. 'Can I return these two tickets?' he asked. 'Certainly,' the girl said.
I went back to the ticket-office at once.

练习感悟:
今天没有带任何目的,单纯依靠自己的好奇心和学习欲望,看了半篇经济学人的原文,平时一段都看不下去的。今天感觉学到了很多地道用法,比如gap,chasm,divide都可以表示经济的鸿沟。学英语没有高级低级之分,就算是最简单的新概念,也有很多地道的用法值得学习,比如今天的exclaim,就是一个考试不常见的词语,还有前天的演员在舞台上表演,用appear on the stage,也是我不会的。每天都有新收获。
意志力是有限的,只有把一件事变成习惯才不会耗费额外的精力,所以一段时间不要给自己多个目标,而是把最想做的事情放在第一位。如果又想学英语,又想减肥,又想准备考试,还想努力工作,那么,大概率会崩溃,一个都完不成,或者质量很差。总是能在有些成功的人身上找到一些共性,学会取舍,不要在意他人的眼光,能够延时满足,做个拎得清的人。
