Lesson 86 Out of control
First listen and then answer the question
What was the danger?
As the man tried to swing the speedboat round.the steering wheel came away in his hands.He waved desperately to his companion,who has been water skiing for the last fifteen minutes.Both men had hardly had time to realize what was happening when they were thrown violently into the sea.The speedboat had struck a buoy,but it continued to move very quickly across the water,Both men had just begun to swim towards the shore,when they noticed with dismay that the speedboat was moving in a circle.It now came straight towards them at tremendous speed.In less than a minute,it roared past them only a few away,After it had passed.they swam on as quickly as they could because they knew that the boat would soon return,They had just had enough time to swim out of danger when the boat again completed a circle.On this occasion,however, it had slowed down considerably.The petrol had nearly all been used up .Before long,the nosie dropped completely and the boat began to drift gently across the water.

训练任务：L0+L1+L2+L4
训练感想：现在每次写感想都感觉可以写一大堆，因为希望能记录自己的感想，在后面无论是停下来了，还是继续前行都会是很好的会议，今儿查单词时如往常一样，感觉相对是简单的，只有几个陌生的单词，整句读也是一样，感觉还可以，但是到最后录的时候就感觉不对劲儿，不是单词错误，就是语调不对，更不可思议的是，脑袋里能反映出这个单词的音标，但是就是读不准确，这下真该缺练了。说老实话，现在每天都他妈不想干，不想读，但是理智告诉我不能停，不然前面的时间都浪费了。昨儿成长会开启仪式中S讲得很对，成长的每向上一步都是艰难的，向下滑行，随波逐流是容易的，知道做不到是多数人的通病，比如明知道学习需要漫长的沉淀期才能看到效果，有时这种效果是微乎其微的，只要熬过去就行了，但是偏偏就是在中途不知为何放弃了，幸好已到86天，向100天进军。
